Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The chapters in this book provide in- depth insight into the gender norms and contexts in which women work in the expanding informal mining sector in sub- Saharan Africa. Collectively, the research here provides a nuanced account of women’s livelihood strategies in artisanal and small- scale mining (ASM, as its generally known) in ways that challenge images of women— as either victimized by mining or empowered by mining livelihoods, or both— that tend to dominate the growing array of donor and policy interventions in this sector. The authors come from different disciplinary traditions— anthropology, economics, political science, mining engineering, law— but all place questions of gendered power front and centre in their analyses of sociocultural, institutional, economic and political relationships, practices and arrangements within which women navigate their mining livelihoods. The physical or representational presence (and sometimes absence) of women in ASM sites is a linking theme, with the chapters exploring different dimensions of mining and gender— the gendered divisions of labour, migration, land ownership, cultural norms, and gendered authority relations— but also how ‘women’ materialize and are seen and unseen in the growing array of transnational interventions in this sector. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the Canadian Journal of African Studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume convenes English- and French-speaking Canadianists who share a broad reflection on issues of exclusion and inclusion in Canadian contexts. It is through historical, but also linguistic, cultural and literary perspectives that we can unveil and learn more about the particular instances of inclusion and exclusion. The volume offers a kaleidoscopic view of Canadian history, politics, literature, and culture. The collected essays provide a discussion on a number of contemporary Anglophone and Francophone literary works, the evaluation of Canadian language policy, the reflection upon the literary canon as well as challenges of literary translation in a bilingual country, the distinctness of Black Lives Matter Canada, and, last but not the least, the historical status of New France.

Download or read book Without Having Seen the Queen written by Heinrich Schliemann and published by Sidestone Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heinrich Schliemann (1822-1890), a shrewd trader and later in life one of the best known archaeologists of the 19th century, made many travels around the world. He recorded his experiences in several diaries. This publication is a transcription and translation of Schliemann's first travel diary: his European journey in the winter of 1846/47. This journey was his first as a commercial trader and through the diary he kept we get to know Heinrich Schliemann more as a tourist and human being than as a trader. From his new residence in Moscow he travelled to London and Paris and via Berlin back to St. Petersburg. He writes with admiration and amazement about buildings and the emerging industrialization, while indirectly he offers us a glimpse of the poverty and filthiness of that time. He describes his visits to amongst others the theatre, the British Museum, the Champs Elysées, and the Louvre. Besides the many pleasant experiences, he also mentions negative aspects such as the theft of his hat and the seasickness that plagued him during every one of his sea voyages. The original diary was written in English and French and for a small part in Italian. "Without having seen the Queen" comprises an introduction to the diary, a transcription of the diary, and a full English translation with annotations. This publication unlocks Schliemann's first travelogue and presents a unique view of his life before rising to fame as the discoverer of Troy.
Download or read book Transcendentalism Overturned written by Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-04-02 with total page 698 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection offers a critical assessment of transcendentalism, the understanding of consciousness, absolutized as a system of a priori laws of the mind, that was advanced by Kant and Husserl. As these studies show, transcendentalism critically informed 20th Century phenomenological investigation into such issues as temporality, historicity, imagination, objectivity and subjectivity, freedom, ethical judgment, work, praxis. Advances in science have now provoked a questioning of the absolute prerogatives of consciousness. Transcendentalism is challenged by empirical reductionism. And recognition of the role the celestial sphere plays in life on planet earth suggests that a radical shift of philosophy's center of gravity be made away from absolute consciousness and toward the transcendental forces at play in the architectonics of the cosmos.

Download or read book Phenomenology of Space and Time written by Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka and published by Springer Science & Business. This book was released on 2014-04-26 with total page 499 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book celebrates the investigative power of phenomenology to explore the phenomenological sense of space and time in conjunction with the phenomenology of intentionality, the invisible, the sacred, and the mystical. It examines the course of life through its ontopoietic genesis, opening the cosmic sphere to logos. The work also explores, on the one hand, the intellectual drive to locate our cosmic position in the universe and, on the other, the pull toward the infinite. It intertwines science and its grounding principles with imagination in order to make sense of the infinite. This work is the first of a two-part work that contains papers presented at the 62nd International Congress of Phenomenology, The Forces of the Cosmos and the Ontopoietic Genesis of Life, held in Paris, France, August 2012. It features the work of scholars in such diverse disciplines as biology, anthropology, pedagogy, and psychology who philosophically investigate the cosmic origins of beingness. Coverage in this first part includes: Toward a New Enlightenment: Metaphysics as Philosophy of Life, Transformation in Phenomenology: Husserl and Tymieniecka, Biologically Organized Quantum Vacuum and the Cosmic Origin of Cellular Life, Plotinus "Enneads" and Self-Creation, The Creative Potential of Humor, Transcendental Morphology – A Phenomenological Interpretation of Human and Non-Human Cosmos, and Cognition and Emotion: From Dichotomy to Ambiguity.

Download or read book Maat la Dea Della Giustizia Dell antico Egitto written by Anna Mancini and published by BUENOS BOOKS AMERICA LLC. This book was released on 2010-06 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Per capire l'essenza di una civilt abbiamo bisogno di capirne l'idea di giustizia. Nell'antico Egitto, c'era una dea onnipresente che si chiamava Maat. Questa dea stata considerata dagli scienziati occidentali come la "dea della verit-giustizia," ma allo stesso tempo essi hanno ammesso di non avere capito bene il concetto di Maat che rimasto oscuro perch stato creato da gente che aveva una mentalit molto diversa dalla nostra. Ed vero che l'antico Egitto aveva una maniera di percepire il mondo all'opposto della nostra. Noi, siamo incentrati sull'aspetto materiale del mondo, mentre loro erano incentrati sull'aspetto immateriale pi importante del mondo: sulla vita. Molti testi ritrovati dimostrano che per gli antichi Egiziani, Maat era la luce solare che infondeva la vita. Quindi, per loro, la giustizia consisteva nel far circolare la vita nel microcosmo e nel macrocosmo: uno scopo del tutto ignorato dalla giustizia moderna! Una volta trovata questa chiave di comprensione, i testi egiziani che parlano di Maat e l'iconografia (specialmente la scena chiamata "della psicostasia" o "del giudizio dei morti" che mostra Maat in azione) rivelano all'uomo moderno i loro "segreti." Questo studio universitario, basato sulle fonti accademiche dell'egittologia, della filosofia del diritto e della storia delle religioni apre nuovi orizzonti per capire meglio questa affascinante civilt e approfittare delle sue conoscenze sull'energia solare e sulla maniera di usarla per creare un mondo prospero materialmente e "vitalmente," cio pieno di vita, di felicit, di salute mentale e fisica. La dott.ssa Anna Mancini, nata in Francia da genitori Italiani. Ha studiato la filosofia del diritto a Parigi e la filosofia della mente a Londra. Appassionata dallo studio del sogno, Anna Mancini, ha fatto pi di venti anni di ricerche sul processo onirico e ha creato a Parigi: Innovative You, un'organizzazione dedicata allo studio del sogno creativo. Le immagini dell'antico Egitto furono concepite per "informare" l'inconscio, come fanno anche le immagini dei sogni. Quindi siamo fortunati ad avere uno studio su Maat fatto da una ricercatrice che riunisce sia le capacit razionali accademiche sia un'esperienza del processo onirico che le permette di capire molto meglio l'iconografia dell'antico Egitto.

Book excerpt: El Encanto, al igual que otros poblados del estado de Veracruz, se caracteriza por lo aberrante de su gente. Por un lado, quienes glorifican en público a Epifanio Martínez, en privado lo maldicen. Muchos quieren ser como él, pero aborrecen que su estirpe haya mantenido en perpetua desgracia al poblado. Nadie sabe con exactitud cuándo fue el día en que los pueblerinos quedaron a merced de tanta humillación. Lo perverso de su verdugo, confunde a la gente con la idea de que éste todo lo puede con el poder de su dinero, hasta que en el horizonte aparecen Gabino Domínguez y Gervasio García, provocando que el cacique viva sus peores días. Sin querer, el par de campesinos sufren con una experiencia que los horroriza de pies a cabeza en la derruida ex hacienda de El Encanto. A partir de ese momento, la vida en El Encanto ya no será la misma. Muchos, al igual que Gabino y Gervasio, creen que Epifanio tiene pactos con el demonio. Y el par de campesinos tienen razones de sobra para pensar así. Sin embargo, ambos se dan cuenta que el cacique no es el mito que todos creían. Así, poco a poco, Gabino y su inseparable amigo con la ayuda de la familia Ruvalcaba, descorren el velo que mantuvo por tanto tiempo postrado al poblado.
