Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set between parts of Asia and Africa, Brussels and the UK, Changing Scenes of a Life offers an alternative perspective into some of the major international conflicts and political developments of the mid-20th century. Tracing the career of former Colonial Officer and European Administrator Keith Arrowsmith, this politically-charged memoir explores life in war-time India, post-war in Malaya and Singapore, Nigeria, Uganda and Hong Kong. Examining the culture and society of Eastern Nigeria - which had gained internal self-government - and of Uganda before and after independence in 1962, and the beginnings of the European Union, in both Brussels and 1970s England, Arrowsmith's experiences bring the anxieties and dilemmas of a life in colonial service to the fore. The book offers a fascinating insight into these countries at times of great social and political change, whist shedding light on each country's history and respective path to independence. On his return to a vastly changed England in 1969, the author became the final Secretary of the Chartered Land Agents' Society which eventually led to his appointment as one of the first principal administrators in the commission of the European Union. Contrasting Europe with International service, he highlights the huge strides in foreign policy over the last century. The author's portrait of a life in service, both as a military officer and as a political administrator, opens a window into distinctive periods of international history across Africa and Asia and the birth of European democracy following the inclusion in 1973 of the United Kingdom into the EEC. He has produced a thought-provoking work for those interested in colonial history in Africa and Asia, Ugandan Independence, the ethics of military service and the workings of the European Union.

This book was released on 2024-01-09 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ultimate aim and purpose of this book is to give us some insight into dealing with the negative and positive vicissitudes of life and how to cope with them. It seeks to remind us that in times of joy, fortune and success, we should celebrate those moments with grateful hearts. We should learn not to take them for granted but to claim them as blessings, count them and capitalize on them. On the other hand, when distress confronts us, when trouble engulfs us, we should first be conscious of the fact that while trouble and calamity may be inevitable, that they are neither fatal nor final. Misfortune is not a permanent feature of life. It is transient, as one of our psalms reminds us ,"heaviness may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning."

Download or read book Changing Scenes written by Pirjo Lyytikäinen and published by Suomalaisen Kirjallisuuden Seura. This book was released on 2003-12-18 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Six articles in Changing scenes represent the ongoing reassessment of fin de siècle literature in Finnish research. The period was seen in earlier research as something of a national renaissance or golden age and interpreted in the light of its national symbols and meanings. Only recently has more attention been paid to its international dimensions and its role in the modernisation of Finnish culture. In particular the spotlight has been trained on the reflection in Finnish literature of manifestations of the degeneration thinking so common in Europe at that time. Research has also picked out works and writers that featured less in earlier studies. One modernist Finnish poet, Neustadt Prize-winning Paavo Haavikko, is also examined in an article representing the latest Finnish research in this field.
