Torche and Spilerman's study of Chile used data came--the 2003 Survey of Intergenerational Financial Linkages.
One simple answer would be that the unevenness seems to control, besides material prosperity, important characteristics of social life such as scientific recognition (Merton 1988), depletion of natural resources (Roberts and Emel 1992) or benefits of health and education (Neckerman and Torche 2007).
Judging, therefore, from the fact that the stage direction "Enter Gouianus in black, a booke in his hand, his page carying a Torche before hym" (TLN 1877-78) is centered, the arrival of Govianus and his page was treated as the beginning of a new scene.
