Abstract

Abu 'Abdollâh' Jafar ibn Mohammad Rudaki (c. 880 CE-941 CE) was a poet to the Samanid court which ruled much of Khorâsân (northeastern Persia) from its seat in Bukhara. He is widely regarded as "the father of Persian poetry, for he was the first major poet to write in New Persian language, following the Arab conquest in the seventh and eighth centuries, which established Islam as the official religion, and made Arabic the predominant literary language in Persian-speaking lands for some two centuries. In the tenth century the Caliphate power, with headquarters in Bagdad, gradually weakened. The remoteness of Khorâsân, where Rudaki was based, provided a hospitable atmosphere for a "renaissance" of Persian literature. Persian poetry-now written in the Arabic alphabet-flourished under the patronage of the Samanid amirs, who drew literary talent to their court. Under the rule of Nasr ibn Ahmad II (r. 914-943), Rudaki distinguished himself as the brightest literary star of the Samanid court. This book presents Rudaki as the founder of a new poetic aesthetic, which was adopted by subsequent generations of Persian poets. Rudaki is credited with being the first to write in the rubâi form; and many of the images we first encounter in Rudaki's lines have become staples of Persian poetry.

Abstract

Cette nouvelle édition, actualisée et augmentée de 50 pages, tient compte de la loi d'orientation et de programmation pour la refondation de l'École de la République du 8 juillet 2013. Apprendre à connaître ses rythmes nécessite qu'on soit bien informé sur leur fonctionnement mais aussi sur les causes de dysfonctionnement. Mieux les connaître permet de les respecter, permet alors d'aménager les temps d’apprentissage et de travail ainsi que les efforts à fournir en fonction des disponibilités physiologiques qui sont les nôtres. Les rythmes biologiques sont les seuls pour lesquels des horloges biologiques génétiquement programmées ont été découvertes alors que les variations au cours du temps des fonctions psychologiques (l’attention, la mémorisation) sont à la fois dépendantes de ces rythmicités biologiques et des contextes environnementaux dans lesquels ces fonctions s’exercent. Ainsi de nombreux facteurs masquants (la motivation, le niveau de compétence, les différences inter-individuelles, l’âge, le contenu des tâches, etc) jouent un rôle important sur ces variations au cours du temps des performances liées au bon fonctionnement de ces fonctions psychologiques : c’est pourquoi aménager les temps d’apprentissage nécessite à la fois de bien connaître les rythmicités biologiques auxquelles on ne peut échapper mais aussi d’intervenir principalement sur les contenus, les pratiques pédagogiques, les méthodes d’apprentissage et d’évaluations mis en œuvre pour les activités occupant les différents temps de la journée. Pour les enfants cela concerne les temps scolaires comme les temps non scolaires. Dans cette nouvelle édition actualisée, vous trouverez toutes les informations nécessaires à une meilleure compréhension du fonctionnement de nos enfants ainsi que les erreurs à éviter tant en matière d’éducation que d’aménagements à proposer pour un mieux-vivre de chacun d’eux.

Abstract

This open access book demonstrates the linkages between local languages, traditional knowledge, and biodiversity at the landscape level in Asia, providing a fresh approach to discussions on Asia’s biocultural diversity. The book carries forward earlier analyses but importantly focuses on ‘traditional ecological calendars,’ ‘folk medicine,’ and ‘folk names’ in the context of the vital importance of maintaining biological, cultural, and linguistic diversity. It does this by addressing a range of cases and issues in relation to Southeast Asia: Brunei Darussalam, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, and North-East India. The several chapters demonstrate the ways in which the various forms of knowledge of the environment and its categorizations are important in areas such as landscape and resource management and conservation. They also demonstrate that environmental knowledge and the practical skills which accompany it are not necessarily widely shared. This book sends important messages to those who care about the sustainability of our environment, the maintenance of its biocultural diversity, or at least the maintenance of what remains of it because much has changed. This interdisciplinary collection draws from a wide range of disciplines and is of appeal to students and scholars in anthropology, environmental studies, geography, biodiversity, and linguistics. ; This book demonstrates the linkages between local languages, traditional knowledge, and biodiversity at the landscape level in Asia, providing a fresh approach to discussions on Asia’s biocultural diversity.

Abstract

This collective volume examines the concept, theory, practice, and representations of the liturgy in the Middle Ages, including its sacramental developments, its religious and political implications, its forms of ritualization, and its doctrinal presumptions. It aims to create a space for interdisciplinary dialogue between history, theology, canon law, art history, political philosophy, and symbolic anthropology. It privileges the examination of the transferences between the spiritual and the temporal, the sacred and the profane, the political and the religious.

Abstract

Israelite religions have always fascinated scholars. Initial studies used the Bible as their main source of information and attempted to read it critically in order to learn about the religion of ancient Israel. With the advent of modern research in the Near East, more and more information on other Ancient Near Eastern religions was accumulated and initially used to illuminate Israelite religious practices as described in the Bible, but gradually led to challenging some of the accepted truisms. The new information was collected mainly through archaeological excavations, and archaeology had gradually become a major player in the study of ancient Israelite religion(s) and religious practices. The massive amount of information on the various subthemes related to Israelite religions, the shifting trends in scholarship, the multiplicity of approaches, and the interdisciplinary nature of the field means that no single scholar can master all the data today. Indeed, there is currently no comprehensive and updated book that covers all or even most aspects pertaining to Israelite religion(s). This volume is a partial attempt to fill some of this lacuna. The volume includes a number of broad, summarizing studies, presenting readers with the up-to-date state of the research on a number of important issues, from Solomon’s temple to broader studies of the loci of cultic activity in ancient Israel through to analysis of the difference between the “official” and “popular” expression of religion, the place of women in Israelite cult(s), similarities and differences between the religious practices in Israel and Judah and those of other Iron Age religions, and the religion of some of Israel’s neighbors to the role of zooarchaeology in the study of religion, ancient Israelite festivals, and more.
