  Science Fair Projects - Samuel Lister
Samuel Cunliffe Lister, 1st Baron of Masham (1815 – 1906) was a British inventor and industrialist, born in Calverley Hall, near Bradford.
Samuel Lister played a key role in the development of Bradford's wool industry during the nineteenth century industrial revolution.
Lister invented the Lister Nip Comb which separated and straightened raw wool, which has to be done before it can be spun into yarn, and in the nineteenth century it was a hot, dirty and tiring job.

 An eighteenth-century magistrate as detective: Samuel Lister of Little Horton
Samuel Lister of Horton House at Little Horton in the parish of Bradford, about a mile from the town of Bradford, was born in 1714 into a minor gentry family long-established in the locality.
Yet Lister's activity as a magistrate should not be interpreted simply as a reflection of the demands made on him because of the growing shortage of justices in an area generating a particularly heavy flow of business.
Indeed it is evident from Lister's cases and from other eighteenth-century magistrates' correspondence and notebooks that the vast majority of serious criminal cases came to a magistrate's attention only after both the identity of the suspected offender and at least an outline of the case against him had been established.

 Raymond Lister
Lister is well qualified to evaluate the relation between the Interpreter and the Ancients.
Lister appears to think the writings and motivations are self-evident, but after Foucault and Derrida, let alone Marx and Freud, such an approach makes biographies problematic.
On the other hand, Lister’s refusal to analyze texts and images in light of current critical theories, to treat them as documents revealing culture, gender, or ideology, or to dwell on the political, social, religious, or aesthetic issues of the day, makes his biography the first place to start any study of Palmer.

 A Review of Two Works Related to Samuel Palmer
Raymond Lister' s fine edition of Samuel Palmer's letters skillfully presents much hitherto unavailable information about the artist, and yet, through no fault of the editor, the results are somewhat disappointing.
Lister's introduction carefully explains his general principles, also characterizing the particular problems faced by the editor of Palmer's correspondence.
Lister, for example, valuably indicates the presence of now vanished letters, thus indicating the range of the artist's correspondence, and in editing the letters from Palmer's Italian honeymoon, which comprise almost twenty percent of the total, he usefully prints those from the artist's wife Hannah to her parents, John and Mary Ann Linnell.

A worsted spinner, a manufacturer and an inventor, Samuel Cunliffe Lister changed the face of wool production and removed some of the hardest aspects from the manual job.

Lister was one of the largest employers in Bradford, putting Bradford on the global map, contributing greatly to its wealth and providing some of its magnificent buildings and open spaces.

 [No title]   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Assistant Secretary Lister rested her decision in part on the fact that the authorities at the time, both the Attorney General and the district court that had ruled on the habeas petition, concluded that the Hunter Commission had jurisdiction.
Although Assistant Secretary Lister noted that the "city, throughout the course of the insurrection, was under a declared state of martial law and civil policing was conducted, for the most part, by soldiers," she did not suggest that the Hunter Commission was exercising martial law jurisdiction.
Assistant Secretary Lister's decision also is unsupported by substantial evidence in the record because she appears to have based her decision, at least in part, on the premise that Dr. Samuel Mudd could have had the jurisdictional question decided over a century ago and failed to raise it.
