What England Is and What It Claims to Be: Orwell on National Identity
The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.Abstract This article suggests that George Orwell's body of work offers a rather unique and insightful two‐part conception of national identity in the context of England, made up of a moral inheritance—the values of liberty, fairness and decency—and a lived sensibility—the fluid, experiential quality of collective life expressed in shared customs ...

Beam to Column Timber Joints with Pretensioned Bolts
Civil Engineering Dimension, 2011 The effects of pretension in bolts on hysteretic response of timber joints exposed to a bending had been reported by the authors, but the cyclic tests were carried out at small displacement level which might not be applicable for earthquake-resistance ...
