Sommario/riassunto

Presents a systematic and comprehensive study of hydraulic fracturing, original in its concentration of core soil problems     There have been a number of well-studied cases in which dams have failed or been damaged by concentrated leaks for no apparent cause. In some of these experiences, investigators concluded that differential settlement cracks were the probable causes, even though no cracks were seen on the surface. In these examples, it was not determined whether the crack was open before the reservoir filled or whether it might have opened after

The Performance of Reading: An Essay in the Philosophy of Literature; Contents; Preface; The Performance of Reading; Notes; Bibliography; Index

Sommario/riassunto

The Performance of Reading argues that there are distinct analogies between ""silent"" reading and artistic performance, and so fashions the new role of the reader as performer.  An original and insightful exploration of the act of reading by the leading scholar in the field. Discusses the history of reading and the transitions from reading aloud to reading silently, and the changing role of literature as communal, active experience to a more private endeavor.
