    • I do not wish to suggest that such a concern is new as such. Indeed, some sort of concern with the person punished makes itself felt in most extended discussions of punishment. Only relatively rarely, however, has it been explicitly thematised as a distinct philosophical topic. As already noted, R. A. Duff has done much to reverse this trend. An important earlier article in this area is Winch, Peter, "Ethical Reward and Punishment" in his Ethics and Action (London: Routledge and Kegan Paul, 1972), pp. 210-228. See also Adler, Jacob, The Urgings of Conscience (Philadelphia: Temple University Press, 1992); and Moore, Michael, Placing Blame: A General Theory of the Criminal Law (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1997), Ch. 3 "The Moral Worth of Retribution" and Ch. 4 "Justifying Retribution". My approach, however, is different from both Adler's and Moore's and I do not draw upon their work here. Detailed analysis and criticism of their approaches would, though, merit a paper of its own.

    • "Censure" is the term most often used in this context, but, to my ear at least, "reproach" connotes a little more clearly a sense of moral engagement with the person reproached. But nothing much depends on the distinction here. For defences of the censure/reproach account of punishment, see: R. A Duff in the works cited above in footnote 1; Von Hirsch, Andrew, Censure and Sanctions (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1993); and Narayan, Uma, "Appropriate Responses and Preventive Benefits: Justifying Censure and Hard Treatment in Legal Punishment", Oxford Journal of Legal Studies 13 (1993), pp. 166-182.

    • R. A. Duff emphasises the importance of distinguishing mere expression and communication in this context. See his Punishment, Communication, and Community, Ch. 3.2. I stick with the term "expressivity" and cognates here, however, because I want to distinguish, within communication, the receptive and the expressive aspects.

    • I do not want to rule out any possible role for negotiation here, especially in the context of mediations, conferencing with victims and similar, "restorative" modes of response to crime (though talk about "ownership" of one's punishment must proceed warily). I shall, however, remain focused on non-negotiated punishments in trying to show that expressiveness by the offender does not require ultimate authorship by the offender.

    • Such punishments as community service do not go against this idea, for there is a distinct difference in meaning between being sentenced, say, to paint a community gymnasium and volunteering to do it as part of a local charity group. Being physically near people, and even interacting with them, is not yet to be in fellowship with them. I do not assume, I hasten to add, that everyone starts out enjoying such "fellowship" and only losses it through criminal wrongdoing.
