 Internal Structure of Verb Meaning: A Study of Verbs in Tamazight (Berber) By Karim Achab 2012 | 205 Pages | ISBN: 1443837512 | PDF | 2 MB "Internal Structure of Verb meaning: A Study of verbs in Tamazight" (Berber) makes available to a wide audience years of academic research in linguistics. It is written in such a way that it serves as an introduction to the domains of lexical semantics and the organization of grammar for students. The book investigates the internal structure and the predicate-argument structure of verbs of (change of) state, including unaccusatives, verbs of spatial configuration, causatives, and those traditionally referred to as verbs of quality in the linguistic literature on Tamazight. The Tamazight data investigated is so peculiar that it reveals a lot about the construction and derivation of verb meaning from both the ontogenetic and the phylogenetic views. The analysis provided in this book also shows in a parsimonious and most lucid way how lexical semantics interacts with other syntactic approaches including Government and Binding and the Minimalist program. As most of the literature available on Tamazight is written in French, the author also made a pledge to inform the English speaking world about the reality of Tamazight not only as a living language but also as a culture and an identity that is still cherished and defended by its owners across North Africa, from Morocco to Egypt and in some Sub-Saharan countries including Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso in a variety known as Tuareg. Although the language is still spoken by some 40 million people in these two regions, political regimes in these various have had enough of a nerve to even deny its existence (see some quotes p. iv). You will be surprised to find out that Sheshonq, the founder of the 22nd dynasty of Pharaohs in Egypt, was an Amazigh (Berber) from Libya, or how this multi-millennium language has resisted some of the most oppressive tyrants and regimes of our era.  Intentional Leadership Becoming a Trustworthy Leader Second Edition English | 2022 | ISBN: 9780367822170 | 163 pages | True PDF | 5.74 MB Intentional Leadership: Becoming a Trustworthy Leader clearly explains the ways leaders can build trust in three stages of their career: as an individual contributor, as a team member, and as a leader of an organization.  Karolyn Tyson, "Integration Interrupted: Tracking, Black Students, and Acting White after Brown" English | ISBN: 0199736448 | 2011 | 240 pages | PDF | 1337 KB An all-too-popular explanation for why black students aren't doing better in school is their own use of the "acting white" slur to ridicule fellow blacks for taking advanced classes, doing schoolwork, and striving to earn high grades. Carefully reconsidering how and why black students have come to equate school success with whiteness, Integration Interrupted argues that when students understand race to be connected with achievement, it is a powerful lesson conveyed by schools, not their peers. Drawing on over ten years of ethnographic research, Karolyn Tyson shows how equating school success with "acting white" arose in the aftermath of  Sasha Abramsky, "Inside Obama's Brain" English | 2009 | ISBN: 1591843022 | EPUB | pages: 224 | 0.2 mb "Never has the world needed strong and wise American leadership more than it does now. Abramsky's eminently readable description of Obama's personal gifts makes it clear that he is remarkably suited to be the president the moment requires." -Former New York Governor Mario M. Cuomo  James Hillman, "Inhuman Relations " English | ISBN: 0882145851 | 2021 | 376 pages | PDF | 2 MB Inhuman Relations, Vol. 7 of the Uniform Edition of the Writings of James Hillman, contains what could be described as Hillman's more "clinical" writings. Hillman chose the title, Inhuman Relations, to emphasize the archetypal forces that shape our human interactions - the myths behind our messes, as he says in this volume. With this volume, Hillman decided to return to his groundbreaking book on soul-making, Re-Visioning Psychology, and organize most of essays under that book's original operative headings: Personifying or Imagining Things, Pathologizing or Falling Apart, Dehumanizing or Soul-Making, and Psychologizing or Seeing Through. The 24 essays in this volume illustrate these operations and allow the reader not only to appreciate their wide-ranging content, but also to become aware of their experiential influence.

Enjoy Stories, Explore India! by Sivagnanam Vetrivel English | April 28, 2021 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B093TBNM1F | 115 pages | EPUB | 0.19 Mb Indian Short Stories in Japanese: 15 Indian short stories (written in Japanese with English Translation) - to provide the enjoyment of reading the Indian stories for Japanese readers  Jay L. Garfield, "Indian Philosophy in English: From Renaissance to Independence" English | ISBN: 0199769265 | 2011 | 664 pages | MOBI | 1454 KB This book publishes, for the first time in decades, and in many cases, for the first time in a readily accessible edition, English language philosophical literature written in India during the period of British rule. Bhushan's and Garfield's own essays on the work of this period contextualize the philosophical essays collected and connect them to broader intellectual, artistic and political movements in India. This volume yields a new understanding of cosmopolitan consciousness in a colonial context, of the intellectual agency of colonial academic communities, and of the roots of cross-cultural philosophy as it is practiced today. It transforms the canon of global philosophy, presenting for the first time a usable collection and a systematic study of Anglophone Indian philosophy.  Marcella Althaus-Reid, "Indecent Theology: Theological perversions in sex, gender and politics" English | ISBN: 0415236045 | 2000 | 224 pages | AZW3 | 467 KB Indecent Theology brings liberation theology up to date by introducing the radical critical approaches of gender, postcolonial, and queer theory. Grounded in actual examples from Latin America, Marcella Althaus-Reid's highly provocative, but immaculately researched book reworks three distinct areas of theology - sexual, political and systematic. It exposes the connections between theology, sexuality and politics, whilst initiating a dramatic sexual rereading of systematic theology.  Incarnation and Covenant in the Prologue to the Fourth Gospel (John 1:1-18) (Europäische Hochschulschriften / European University Studies / Publications Universitaires Européennes) By Wilson Paroschi 2006 | 238 Pages | ISBN: 3631548303 | PDF | 54 MB This study deals with the structural and exegetical relationship between pre-existence and incarnation in the dynamics of John's Prologue (John 1:1-18). It discusses the point in the narrative at which the shift from the pre-existent Logos to the incarnate Christ takes place and, therefore, the perspective from which the individual parts of the passage (vss. 1-5; vss. 6-13; vss. 14-18) should be interpreted. By making a detailed and comprehensive analysis of the text and evaluating all contrasting views on the subject, the book shows the essential chronological order of the narrative, whose climax (vss. 14-18) is not the announcement of the incarnation proper, but rather a profound theological reflection on the significance of that event based on the covenantal traditions of the exodus story and later prophetic expectations. |
