Описание: Recent manuscript evidence from al-Jami` al-Kabir in ?an 'a' suggests that the Qur'an took its final shape well before 671 CE. Irrespective, however, of who composed it or when it was compiled, questions remain about whether the Qur'an followed any kind of preconceived plan or compositional schema that makes sense in today's world. In The al-Baqara Crescendo, Nevin Reda introduces a bold new avenue of research: the poetics of Qur'anic narrative structure. Focusing on Surat al-Baqara, the longest and most challenging of the suras, she explores the beauty and rationale behind the Qur'an's unusual organization. Reda argues that the sura – often dismissed by Muslim traditionalists and Orientalist critics as a baffling collection of disjointed material – can be appreciated as a coherent composition if it is approached as a spoken text. Calling attention to oral organizational techniques such as repetition, this book's repertoire of figures showcases Surat al-Baqara's ingenious layout and pinpoints the sophisticated meanings that are embedded within it. Incorporating insights from literary theory and Biblical studies, the author advances inclusivity and intercultural bridge-building in the study of scripture. In an engaging narrative that is bound to captivate and challenge the reader, Reda communicates a deep love and thorough command of her subject, all while presenting a significant new development in Islamic feminist hermeneutics.

Описание: Nevin on Nevin -- and the times of our lives: I became a serious collector of 45 rpm recordings in the mid-Fifties. I tried to collect every hit single... Id also buy any recording I really liked, whether a hit or not. Add on my Rhythm and Blues collection and you can see how I amassed a major collection with close to 15,000 45 rpm singles. I owe my parents very much for providing the magic of a background in music. I was always the flamboyant one attacking works by my favourite composers, Chopin and Rachmaninoff... I played piano in a Combo. You almost had to be there to imagine the impact of Elvis Presley on the world of pop music. My father always said my high school years would be the best years of my life - was he ever right! Motown would soon be taking a major chunk of the music market. The British invasion was a positive thing as it shook up the establishment. Collectively we held our breath as Kennedy stared down Russian Premier Kruschev in a scary game of nuclear roulette. Over the years CKOC would earn the reputation of being the Hitmaker, a leader in breaking new hits and new artists as over 25 framed gold and platinum record awards would attest.

Описание: Socially unjust circumstances continue to perpetuate inadequate classroom, school and system-level responses to longstanding social justice imperatives, shutting out power-sharing solutions to educational disparities and marginalizing populations of Indigenous and minoritized peoples. To address these educational disparities, this book proposes a relational and culturally responsive framework, from within a critical and indigenous paradigm that is designed to foster one’s sense of becoming and belonging in the world with all people, and thus promotes inclusion. Praxis such as this challenges traditional paradigms that marginalize or dehumanize those with whom we seek to work. Social justice in education must be concerned with recognizing, respecting and being inclusive of the diversity of all students. Social justice is about valuing and including all children for the potential they arrive with and for the families that stand beside them, rather than on what we might aspire to change and mold them into being.

Описание: The ancient Greeks attributed great importance to the sacred during war and campaigning, as demonstrated from their earliest texts. Among the first four lines of the Iliad, for example, is a declaration that Apollo began the feud between Achilles and Agamemnon and sent a plague upon the Greek army because its leader, Agamemnon, had mistreated Apollo's priest. In this first in-depth study of the attitude of military commanders towards holy ground, Sonya Nevin addresses the customs and conduct of these leaders in relation to sanctuaries, precincts, shrines, temples and sacral objects. Focusing on a variety of Greek kings and captains, the author shows how military leaders were expected to react to the sacred sites of their foes. She further explores how they were likely to respond, and how their responses shaped the way such generals were viewed by their communities, by their troops, by their enemies and also by those--like Herodotus, Thucydides and Xenophon--who were writing their lives. This is a groundbreaking study of the significance of the sacred in warfare and the wider culture of antiquity.
