Many scholars have analyzed Dionne Brand's work.

In his book Black Like Who ?, Rinaldo Walcott includes two essays (" A Tough Geography ": Towards a Poetics of Black Space ( s ) in Canada and " No Language is Neutral ": The Politics of Performativity in M. Nourbese Philip's and Dionne Brand's Poetry ) that deal with Dionne Brand's poetry and take up the overarching themes of her work.

Many of the first critics and scholars to evaluate Brand's early work regularly framed her writing in discourses of Caribbean national and cultural identity and Caribbean literary theory.

" Their gesture toward a literal border crossing, from the Caribbean to Canada, speaks to the increasingly profound engagement with the idea of her own and others ’ shifting locations, both literal and theoretical, evident in Brand's work.

Nevertheless, Dickinson concedes, " Because Brand's ' here ' is necessarily mediated, provisional, evanescent – in a word ' unlocatable ' – her work remains marginal / marginalizable in academic discussions of Canadian literary canons.

" Echoing Dickinson's theory that Brand's work both dislodges and disturbs the borders safeguarding narratives about fixed national identities, Sturgess argues that Brand's " work uses language strategically, as a wedge to split European traditions, forms and aesthetics apart ; to drive them onto their own borders and contradictions.

Brand's work has garnered multiple literary awards and honours and her contribution to literature has been recognized by both Canadian and international literary communities:

Brand's work ( with additions by Henry Ellis ) mentions a northern English Plough Monday custom also observed in the beginning of Lent.

( The incorporated work was the Popular Antiquities of Henry Bourne, published 1725, with Brand's own extensive annotations ).

Despite their past differences and Brand's continuing high-handed attitude, she attempted to work with the X-Men to find a solution to the crisis.

In 1813 he edited John Brand's Popular Antiquities, a work going back to Henry Bourne.

I knew that a conversation with the author would not settle such questions, because a man is not the same as his writing: in the last analysis, the questions had to be settled by the work itself.

And if I have gone into so much detail about so small a work, that is because it is also so typical a work, representing the germinal form of a conflict which remains essential in Mann's writing: the crude sketch of Piepsam contains, in its critical, destructive and self-destructive tendencies, much that is enlarged and illuminated in the figures of, for instance, Naphta and Leverkuhn.

Characteristically, Trevelyan enjoyed writing the work.

For a time, urging Breasted to give up his public relations work and take up writing instead, he hoped to persuade him to become his assistant in research for the labor novel ; ;

During the poetically sterile years he was writing novels at the rate of almost one a year and was, in addition, burdened with bad health ( he spent six months in bed in 1881, too ill to do more than work slowly and painfully at A Laodicean ).

Not only was his Belgian nationality interesting because of Belgium's occupation by Germany ( which provided a valid explanation of why such a skilled detective would be out of work and available to solve mysteries at an English country house ), but also at the time of Christie's writing, it was considered patriotic to express sympathy with the Belgians, since the invasion of their country had constituted Britain's casus belli for entering World War I, and British wartime propaganda emphasized the " Rape of Belgium ".

Though the preface initially states Luke ’ s intentions for writing, by closely examining the contents of the work as a whole, scholars have surmised that Luke ’ s purpose is much more complex.

Some scholars believe that the apologetic view of Luke ’ s work is overemphasized and that it should not be regarded as a “ major aim of the Lucan writings .” While Munck believes that purpose of Luke ’ s work is not that clear-cut and sympathizes with other claims, he believes that Luke ’ s work can function as an apology only in the sense that it “ presents a defense of Christianity and Paul ” and may serve to “ clarify the position of Christianity within Jewry and within the Roman Empire .” Pervo disagrees that Luke ’ s work is an apology and even that it could possibly be addressed to Rome because he believes that “ Luke and Acts speak to insiders, believers in Jesus .” Freedman believes that Luke is writing an apology but that his goal is “ not to defend the Christian movement as such but to defend God ’ s ways in history .”

xiii, " Cum ad Sacrosanctae Romanae Ecclesiae ") prescribes their work, determines how much they may charge for their labour, fixes a certain tax for an abstract or abridgment of twenty-five words, or their equivalent, 150 letters, forbids them to charge more, even though the abstract goes over twenty-five words but less than fifty words, enacts that the basis of the tax is the labour employed in writing, expediting, etc., the Bulls, and by no means the emoluments accruing to the recipient of the favour or benefice conferred by the Bull, and declares that whoever shall charge more than the tax fixed by him shall be suspended for six months from office, and upon a second violation of the law, shall be deprived of it altogether, and if the delinquent be an abbreviator, he shall be excommunicated.

In addition to his well known work on linguistic relativity, he wrote a grammar of the Hopi language and studies of Nahuatl dialects, proposed a deciphering of Maya hieroglyphic writing, and published the first attempt towards a reconstruction of Uto-Aztecan.

Bede's work as a hagiographer, and his detailed attention to dating, were both useful preparations for the task of writing the Historia Ecclesiastica.

It is likely that Bede's work, because it was so widely copied, discouraged others from writing histories and may even have led to the disappearance of manuscripts containing older historical works.

The first, termed Proto-Isaiah ( chapters 1 – 39 ), contains the words of the 8th-century BCE prophet with 7th-century BCE expansions ; the second, Deutero-Isaiah ( chapters 40 – 55 ), is the work of a 6th-century BCE author writing near the end of the Babylonian captivity ; and the third, the poetic Trito-Isaiah ( chapters 56 – 66 ), was composed in Jerusalem shortly after the return from exile, probably by multiple authors.

Secondly, it is impossible for any device operating on a cycle to produce net work from a single temperature reservoir ; the production of net work requires flow of heat from a hotter reservoir to a colder reservoir, or a single expanding reservoir undergoing adiabatic cooling, which performs adiabatic work.

If we choose the shape of the control volume such that all flow in or out occurs perpendicular to its surface, then the flow of matter into the system performs work as if it were a piston of fluid pushing mass into the system, and the system performs work on the flow of matter out as if it were driving a piston of fluid.

Among the regrettable high-tech weapons systems he gave the green light to: the MX missile ( still no basing system ), the TV-guided Maverick missile ( fighter pilots become sitting ducks when they launch them ), the F-18 fighter ( costs more, performs worse than the planes it replaced ), the Aquila Remotely Piloted Vehicle drone ( worse than the Israeli version, 16 times as expensive ), the DIVAD gun ( no amount of money could make it work ), and the Apache helicopter ( the Pentagon recently grounded the entire fleet ).
