Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thirty Years of Oriental Studies: Issued in Commemoration of Thirty Years of Activity of the Oriental Club of Philadelphia After five years, the Club desired to commemorate the occasion by the publication of a volume of papers, which made its appearance from the press a little tardily, in May, 1894, under the title, Oriental Studies, a selection of the papers read before the Oriental Club of Philadelphia 1888 - 1894. This comprised thirteen papers by as many members of the Club, and references to it may still be noted from time to time in scientific periodicals. It was at about this time that the only difficulty in the life of the Club took place: an unpleasantness because of a misunderstanding Over the manner of electing members. However, by a change to substantially the present method, the trouble was quieted, and the Club resumed the even tenor of its happy career. The meetings were held at the homes Of members, and their private hospitality proved most enjoyable; but as years went on, the membership roll grew somewhat, and it became increasingly difficult to accommodate the meetings in private homes. Thus started the practice of entertainment at the Franklin Inn Club, and finally, in 1916, it was decided to hold 11 the meetings at that place, except by special request.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Harim and the Purdah Studies of Oriental Women The realm of the Eastern woman is primarily, the realm of the home. She has the true spirit of the bee she considers the collective good of the household before her own. =her great vocation is to be a wife and m'other. She attends personally to her household duties, and domestic service is to her not a disgrace. =her children are to her a veritable life-work. She looks after them personally, superintends their every act, and watches closely their development. Even the high lady of the East does not consider it demeaning to cook with her own hands that which she knows will appeal to the taste of her family. Cooking, indeed; is regarded as a fine art in the East, and recipes are handed down like heirlooms from mother to daughter along with the family jewels.

Download or read book Synoptical Studies in Chinese Character Classic Reprint written by Herbert A. Giles and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-10 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Synoptical Studies in Chinese Character What little there was in native works of practical value to foreign students has been embodied in the present collection, and for the rest, it can hardly be expected that every comparison drawn will meet with general approval. At the same time, it must be borne in mind that all the characters in any group are not necessarily to be compared one with another, though an ele ment of sameness will be found always to pervade each group and frequently a whole series of such which have been placed intentionally in juxtaposition. Further, although this volume begins from the beginning and leaves the student on the threshold of written Chinese, yet a thorough analytical knowledge of all the characters here given will make future classification a compa ratively easy matter - and the bitterness of Chinese is past.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oriental Studies The assertion has been often made, and seldom denied, that the ethical code known as the Mosaic Law forms the groundwork of the civil and moral laws of all enlightened nations. It will not be denied that this is in a sense true, yet it is quite certain that the enunciation of this statement has often led to conclusions unwarranted by a survey of historical facts. According to Biblical history and common tradition, it was in the third month after the departure of the Israelites from Egypt that Jahveh, descending upon Mount Sinai amidst thunder and lightning, fire, and smoke, covenanted with Moses and established these laws, while the Hebrews with fear and trembling stood around the base of the mountain which they were forbidden to touch.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Discourse on the Study of Oriental Languages and Literature In explanation of the form of the following Discourse, it is requisite to state, that it was designed, in substance at least, to be read in the University of Edinburgh, at the opening of the session 1847-8, as introductory to a course of study in "Hebrew and other Oriental Languages," of which the Author had been appointed Professor. He was precluded, however, from performing this or any other official function by an enforcement of the University Tests; which have been in abeyance here, for nearly a century, though now and then voluntarily complied with; but which were revived in this case, as they were on a well-known occasion in 1804, and as they may be at intervals hereafter. As it was generally expected that they would soon be brought under the notice of the Legislature, he retained his commission, with the concurrence of the Patrons, till the approach of the present session of College. He then sent in his resignation; and, of course, the introductory Lecture now published was never delivered in the place for which it was intended.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oriental Studies: Being a Selection of Papers Read by the Members of the Oriental Seminary of the Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD., At the Annual Meeting of the American Oriental Society, Held in New York, April, 1901 Nor have Semitic scholars, as a rule, taken the trouble to study my treatise on the Semitic sounds and their transliteration, pub lished eleven years ago in the first part of the Johns Hopkins Contributions to Assyriology and Comparative Semitic Philol ogy.l There are, however, a few notable exceptions. The dis tinguished Egyptologist of the University of Leipzig and editor of Baedeker's E ypt, Professor Steindorff, one of my first students in the University of ttingen, has evidently studied my phonetic researches for the phonology of his Coptic Grammarfand the well known Arabist, Count Landberg (two of whose magnificent col lections, comprising valuable Arabic (persian and Turkish) manuscripts, have recently been presented to Yale and Princeton) told me, at the last Oriental Congress, held in Rome in 1899, that he had found my phonetic researches very helpful for his studies in Arabic dialectology; and a few days ago Professor Eduard Sievers, of Leipzig, sent me the first part of his elaborate work on Hebrew Metrics, s which will have a most wholesome effect on the current ideas of Hebrew poetry. He states there in his pho nological introduction (p. 14, n. 1) that he agrees on all essential points with my views concerning the Semitic consonants. Sievers' treatise on Hebrew meters, which is a wonderful piece of work in view of the fact that he is not a Hebraist but a Germanic scholar (although he had the assistance of some distinguished Semitists like Socin, Kautsch, and Buhl), will probably give a new impetus to phonetic studies among Semitic scholars, and I hope the next edition of Gesenius' Hebrew Grammar, which will be issued in the course of this year, will eliminate several time-honored errors in the domain of Semitic phonetics.
