Book Typical Yoruba Community  A Compendium of Research on Culture  Tradition and Historical Facts on Ifaki Ekiti

Download or read book Typical Yoruba Community A Compendium of Research on Culture Tradition and Historical Facts on Ifaki Ekiti written by D. O. Adetunmbi and published by Mindscope. This book was released on 2018-06-12 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is a compendium of research on culture, tradition and historical facts on Ifaki-Ekiti, a typical Yoruba community in Nigeria, written by D. O. Adetunmbi (1919-1990). The manuscript was edited, updated, structured into 9 chapters and published posthumously in 2018 by Seye Adetunmbi, the son of the author.It is a classic collection of very useful and interesting materials for future researchers on the history, government and social organisation of Ifaki-Ekiti. In some respects it represents an expression of the nationalism of a typical Yoruba town. The author recorded some of the incidents he loved to watch without knowing that the more dynamic influence of European civilization and the invasion of Christianity and Islam would have a crashing effect on the culture he so much loved. Perhaps he suspected the movement which explains why he spent so much time recording them carefully in order to save many aspects of the culture from possible annihilation. It is a unique book that seeks to bring out clearly, as the author watched some of the most beautiful scenes in Yoruba tradition.It was at one of the memorable moments Seye Adetunmbi shared his beloved father during the 1989 Christmas vacation that he asked him how far he had gone with the historical book he was writing on Ifaki-Ekiti, the title he would like to give the book and the need to promptly finalize the manuscript for publication. In his usual sincere character, the author said: "After all if I could not finish it, you (Seye) will conclude it for me." His father passed-on to the world beyond three months after on the 21st of March 1990. After going through his manuscript shortly after his transition, he had actually gotten all the necessary facts and information ready, all his son the editor needed to do was to collate them, edit, review and structure the contents appropriately for publication. By June 1990, the editor has finished repackaging the manuscript for the book; subject to periodic review before its publication. 28 years after the transition of the author, the book published and presented to the public in 2018.Recognising the enormity of details and depth of the research work on the historical pictorial book, coupled with the repository of documents on the origin, background, culture and traditions on Ifaki-Ekiti, his son considered it complementary to do a separate exposition on the biography of the author for posterity. Interestingly, most of his activities in Ifaki between 1957 and 1990 in particular, constituted a historical eon, which bear relevance to the quintessence of this book. In essence, whoever enjoys reading this book may need to get a copy of his published biography, "The Apostle of Harmony" it complements this historical publication. This book covers various subjects and historical facts, which makes it to be an uncommon publication and first of its kind in the contemporary world. The book is fundamentally a compendium of historical repository on Ifaki Community; a complete research work of Chief D. O. Adetunmbi on Ifaki-Ekiti, which he started in 1961 when he first wrote the Geography of Ifaki. Without losing the content and context of his laudable research, his son sourced various complementary pictures to further buttress and add visuals to his historical writings. Also a lot of things have happened in Ifaki community since 1990 which made it necessary to bring up to date the notable events the author was recording with dates in the Chapter Nine of this book.The significance of this timeless historical book is that it provides an excellent food for interested students and historians. This is more so now that Yoruba culture is fast giving way to the more dynamic European influences. Those interested in knowing more about Yoruba culture, heritage and tradition would find the book useful. It will enable readers have access to a scholarly research work for the study or reference of everybody and the generations yet to come.

Book Cognitive Theory and Documentary Film

Download or read book Cognitive Theory and Documentary Film written by Catalin Brylla and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-21 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking edited collection is the first major study to explore the intersection between cognitive theory and documentary film studies, focusing on a variety of formats, such as first-person, wildlife, animated and slow TV documentary, as well as docudrama and web videos. Documentaries play an increasingly significant role in informing our cognitive and emotional understanding of today’s mass-mediated society, and this collection seeks to illuminate their production, exhibition, and reception. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, the essays draw on the latest research in film studies, the neurosciences, cultural studies, cognitive psychology, social psychology, and the philosophy of mind. With a foreword by documentary studies pioneer Bill Nichols and contributions from both theorists and practitioners, this volume firmly demonstrates that cognitive theory represents a valuable tool not only for film scholars but also for filmmakers and practice-led researchers.

Book Making Asian American Film and Video

Download or read book Making Asian American Film and Video written by Jun Okada and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-06 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The words “Asian American film” might evoke a painfully earnest, low-budget documentary or family drama, destined to be seen only in small film festivals or on PBS (Public Broadcasting Service). In her groundbreaking study of the past fifty years of Asian American film and video, Jun Okada demonstrates that although this stereotype is not entirely unfounded, a remarkably diverse range of Asian American filmmaking has emerged. Yet Okada also reveals how the legacy of institutional funding and the “PBS style” unites these filmmakers, whether they are working within that system or setting themselves in opposition to its conventions. Making Asian American Film and Video explores how the genre has served as a flashpoint for debates about what constitutes Asian American identity. Tracing a history of how Asian American film was initially conceived as a form of public-interest media, part of a broader effort to give voice to underrepresented American minorities, Okada shows why this seemingly well-intentioned project inspired deeply ambivalent responses. In addition, she considers a number of Asian American filmmakers who have opted out of producing state-funded films, from Wayne Wang to Gregg Araki to Justin Lin. Okada gives us a unique behind-the-scenes look at the various institutions that have bankrolled and distributed Asian American films, revealing the dynamic interplay between commercial and state-run media. More than just a history of Asian Americans in film, Making Asian American Film and Video is an insightful meditation on both the achievements and the limitations of institutionalized multiculturalism.

Download or read book Story Movements written by Caty Borum Chattoo and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-05-20 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only a few years after the 2013 Sundance Film Festival premiere of Blackfish - an independent documentary film that critiqued the treatment of orcas in captivity - visits to SeaWorld declined, major corporate sponsors pulled their support, and performing acts canceled appearances. The steady drumbeat of public criticism, negative media coverage, and unrelenting activism became known as the "Blackfish Effect." In 2016, SeaWorld announced a stunning corporate policy change - the end of its profitable orca shows. In an evolving networked era, social-issue documentaries like Blackfish are art for civic imagination and social critique. Today's documentaries interrogate topics like sexual assault in the U.S. military (The Invisible War), racial injustice (13th), government surveillance (Citizenfour), and more. Artistic nonfiction films are changing public conversations, influencing media agendas, mobilizing communities, and capturing the attention of policymakers - accessed by expanding audiences in a transforming media marketplace. In Story Movements: How Documentaries Empower People and Inspire Social Change, producer and scholar Caty Borum Chattoo explores how documentaries disrupt dominant cultural narratives through complex, creative, often investigative storytelling. Featuring original interviews with award-winning documentary filmmakers and field leaders, the book reveals the influence and motivations behind the vibrant, eye-opening stories of the contemporary documentary age.

The bond among alumni of The School often awe people around them. This book tells the unending story of The School. It is a distinct pictorial compendium on Christ's School, Ado-Ekiti that was founded in 1933 A.D. The detailed pictorial book was distinctly packaged. It is specifically and strategically published as part of the unending interesting story of Christ's School as an institution of repute and huge heritage. It is indeed an ongoing novelty to promote the reunion concept and lasting harmonious relationship among all the ranks of old students of Christ's School, Ado-Ekiti for the good of the school on a lasting note. It is a timeless corpus, loaded with information for every alumnus to keep for posterity. Various published materials of class sets, old students, past teachers and the school officials on Christ's School, Ado-Ekiti were researched into, the information was compiled and rearranged appropriately to suit this publication. This included freshly obtained information from the school principal such as the staff list and students' list; extracts from the Report on Christ's School Renewal and handover proposal to Ekiti-State Government; written comments of old students at various forums, all put together in a compact one-stop-book. Consequently, the book is made up of 22 chapters in four sections. The first part is the evolution of the school and her consolidation to maturity. It dug into the profile of the founder, the school principals and the teachers of the school to-date. The second part highlighted the recalls of a wide range of the old students from the very old generation alumni up to the younger ones. The third section covers various intervention programmes of the alumni, globally through Reunion and Homecoming programmes. This section brings into perspective concerted efforts on the Master Plan and what the future portends for the school if the collective effort is harnessed productively towards consummating a lasting structure for the proper takeover of the school by the Anglican with the support of the global formidable alumni body. The last and the fourth section contains the register of the old students from 1933-1988 which will be updated from time to time in order to cover any gap in this edition. This publication no doubt should serve as a kind of maiden encyclopedia on Christ's School which will be reviewed periodically. In between the sections are ancient and modern vintage photos that will bring back very fond memories of a beloved alma mater. Albeit, it is one timeless book that must be in the library of those who have passed through Christ's School and allowed the school to pass through them. The publication is quite informative and presented in a reader friendly manner, complemented with memorable pictures. It is wholeheartedly recommended to be read by all. It derives its strength, authority and uniqueness from being a compendium of past previous published works on The School and the long journey to the handover of the school from Ekiti-State Government to Ekiti Anglican Mission. It is loaded with scintillating facets and integrated nostalgic slices of the various experiences of old students The School. Considering the fact that the book has an index, no doubt it is fated to become a veritable source of reference on the history of The School.The intention is to come up with a book that will accommodate everyone connected with Christ's School, Ado-Ekiti, an institution with an awesome legacy, such that the compendium would appeal to all ranks of the reading public and members of the Christ's School family.

Book This Is Not Propaganda

Download or read book This Is Not Propaganda written by Peter Pomerantsev and published by PublicAffairs. This book was released on 2019-08-06 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn how the perception of truth has been weaponized in modern politics with this "insightful" account of propaganda in Russia and beyond during the age of disinformation (New York Times). When information is a weapon, every opinion is an act of war. We live in a world of influence operations run amok, where dark ads, psyops, hacks, bots, soft facts, ISIS, Putin, trolls, and Trump seek to shape our very reality. In this surreal atmosphere created to disorient us and undermine our sense of truth, we've lost not only our grip on peace and democracy -- but our very notion of what those words even mean. Peter Pomerantsev takes us to the front lines of the disinformation age, where he meets Twitter revolutionaries and pop-up populists, "behavioral change" salesmen, Jihadi fanboys, Identitarians, truth cops, and many others. Forty years after his dissident parents were pursued by the KGB, Pomerantsev finds the Kremlin re-emerging as a great propaganda power. His research takes him back to Russia -- but the answers he finds there are not what he expected. Blending reportage, family history, and intellectual adventure, This Is Not Propaganda explores how we can reimagine our politics and ourselves when reality seems to be coming apart.
