	[minstrels] The Unknown Citizen -- W. H. Auden
		From: rhines757@ This poem by W.H Auden is an obvious jab at society and it's governing population.
		Irony is also seen in the fact that the citizen is "unknown," for it seems that this man has done everything right, and for this he should be commended.
		Moreover, the "unknown" citizen is praised and used as an example in the story shows how the so-called democratic society encourages its people to become average.

	Getting to Know the "Unknown Citizen" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		"The Unknown Citizen" is obviously comparable to the image of the Unknown Soldier, the nameless victim of World War I whose government-sponsored memorial represents the countless soldiers who died in battle.
		He is unknown in the sense that his government and perhaps his peers were unaware of his true emotions and ideals, only looking at his exterior image as he did what he believed he was suppose to do, like an automaton constrained by society’s expectations.
		For the most part, the citizen is praised as a "saint" (1.4) for following the accepted pattern of conduct in his day, from fighting in the War to being a hard worker and loyal union member to buying goods on credit.

	The silliest, and most destructive, debate in journalism
		To me, to be called a journalist, mainstream, citizen or otherwise, you have to fulfill some requirements.
		The onslaught of citizen journalists should be framed as a renaissance of civic repsonsibility, a result of social forces colliding with corporate interests.
		When the all the journalists, citizen and professional, realize that the renaissance is more about decentralization and two-way communication than it is about capitalism, the paradigm will shift from the interests of the Gannetts, Tribunes, Foxes and Viacoms back towards a more egallitarian form of shared responsibility and community.

	Chapter Idea Of The Roman Jurisprudence. of History of The Decline And Fall of The Roman Empire by Gibbon
		In the time of Cicero, each private citizen enjoyed the privilege of anarchy; each minister of the republic was exalted to the temptations of regal power, and their virtues are entitled to the warmest praise, as the spontaneous fruits of nature or philosophy.
		The first imperfect attempt to restore the proportion of crimes and punishments was made by the dictator Sylla, who, in the midst of his sanguinary triumph, aspired to restrain the license, rather than to oppress the liberty, of the Romans.
		The Cornelian, and afterwards the Pompeian and Julian, laws introduced a new system of criminal jurisprudence; and the emperors, from Augustus to Justinian, disguised their increasing rigor under the names of the original authors.

	The Unknown Citizen by W.H. Auden
		The poem is about the citizen who was least concerned about his homeland's policies in times of war without knowing any reason the citizen fought for his country.
		This piece of poetry by Auden may give us the conclusion that if we raise our voice in official matters through this way we might exercise our rights and make things easier for government by informing our problems to them.
		If we all take our place as responsible citizens we might be helpful to develop our country and help for its future to be bright.

		What Nabonidus did in Arabia is unknown, but the story of "Nebuchadnezzar's" insanity may be a reference to a bout of insanity or lengthy depression in Nabonidus, who apparently was very unpopular in Babylon -- or so the victorious Persians later claimed.
		But Nabonidus returned to Babylon before its capture by Cyrus, so Belshazzar was not the ruler as the Book of Daniel claims, and he was never king.
		Obviously, whoever wrote the book was a very solid citizen of the 2nd century B.C.E., whose "prophecies" were wholly retroactive.

		As proof that Jayyousi was not hiding or fleeing from the United States while in Qatar, the motion for bail includes a letter from the U.S. Embassy in Qatar stating that Jayyousi registered himself with the embassy on Sept. 23, 2003 as a U.S. citizen residing in Qatar.
