Book Closure

The date on which a publicly-traded company announces that a shareholder is entitled to a dividend. Theoretically, only those who own a stock on the announcement date should be entitled to a dividend; however, because shares change hands so often, actually calculating this can become quite complex. To make the process easier, the company may simply announce a book closure date at some point in the near future, which means that whoever owns a share on that day may claim a declared dividend.

book closure

1. The termination of announced benefits to new shareholders. For example, a company announces a specific date on which it will close the firm's books for shareholders to receive a dividend.

2. See holder of record.

In sum, I hope to have shown that the extant Cena Trimalchionis is not a single ancient book but a continuous conflation with some lacunae of three ancient books, both on the general ground of the length of books in similar ancient texts, and on the particular ground of intratextual signals for the beginning and endings of books, signals which imitate and appropriately modify for a lower genre known epic modes of book opening and book closure.
