  • Voices of Eternal Spring
    Voices of Eternal Spring: A study of the Hingcun diau Song Family and Other Folk Songs of the Hingcun Area, Taiwan Submitted for PhD By Chien Shang-Jen Department of Music University of Sheffield January 2009 Chapter Four The Developmental Process and Historical Background of Hingcun Diau and Its Song Family Introduction The previous three chapters of this thesis detailed the three major systems of Taiwanese folksongs - Aboriginal, Holo and Hakka. Concentrating on the area of Hingcun, one of the primary cradles of Holo folksongs, these three chapters also explored how the geographical conditions, natural landscape, and historical and cultural background of the area influence local folksongs and what the mutual relations between these factors and the local folksongs are. Furthermore, the three chapters studied in depth not only the background, characteristics and cultural influences of each of the Hingcun folk songs but also local prominent folksong figures, major accompanying musical instruments, musical activities and so on. Chapter Four narrows the focus specifically to Hingcun diau and its song family. In this chapter, on the one hand, I examine carefully the changes in Hingcun diau and its song family activated from within a culture; on the other hand, I also pay attention to the changes in these songs caused by their contact with other cultures.1 In other words, in addition to a careful study of the origin, developmental process and historical background of Hingcun diau and its song family, I shall also dissect how the interaction of different ethnic groups, languages used in the area, political and economic factors, and various local cultures influence Hingcun diau and its song family, and what the mutual relations between the former factors and Hingcun diau and its song family are.

  • Zen in the Art of Writing – Ray Bradbury
    A NOTE ABOUT THE AUTHOR Ray Bradbury has published some twenty-seven books—novels, stories, plays, essays, and poems—since his first story appeared when he was twenty years old. He began writing for the movies in 1952—with the script for his own Beast from 20,000 Fathoms. The next year he wrote the screenplays for It Came from Outer Space and Moby Dick. And in 1961 he wrote Orson Welles's narration for King of Kings. Films have been made of his "The Picasso Summer," The Illustrated Man, Fahrenheit 451, The Mar- tian Chronicles, and Something Wicked This Way Comes, and the short animated film Icarus Montgolfier Wright, based on his story of the history of flight, was nominated for an Academy Award. Since 1985 he has adapted his stories for "The Ray Bradbury Theater" on USA Cable television.

  • If We Believe in Jesus, We'll Receive Eternal Life
    Accepting God’s Grace • Lesson 11 Bible Point If we believe in Jesus, we’ll receive eternal life. Bible Verse “For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16). Growing Closer to Jesus Students will n experience what it’s like to receive grace—unmerited kindness; n discover how it feels to be helpless to save themselves; n learn that God’s gift of salvation is offered to everyone; and n discover that Jesus offers something to them—eternal life—that they could never win on their own. Teacher Enrichment Bible Basis n Accepting God’s Grace This passage is one of the most remarkable explanations of God’s plan of Romans salvation found anywhere in the Bible. It’s easy to begin to think that God 5:6-9 sent Jesus to die for the good people who have accepted him. But this passage makes it clear that Jesus died for the ungodly—people who are living their lives in blatant sin. People who are like we were before we became Christians—and worse! Every once in a while you hear of someone intentionally giving his or her own life to save someone else. Usually it’s a mother dying to save a baby or a brother dying to save a sister.
