Much of the pomp, heraldry, movement, and color of the trad ition® of chivalry appeared in the chanson® de geste, stories of Idealized national heroes. The knight® of the chansons, noble, valorous men, flawless in their devotion to king, God, and the cause of right,— those chevaliers whose deed® were sung and celebrated wherever a jongleur presided in the great hall of a chateau, were admirable types of a tradition of French glory and power.

Against All Odds: from Prison to Graduate School
Journal of African American Males in Education Spring 2015 - Vol. 6 Issue 1 Against All Odds: From Prison to Graduate School Rebecca L. Brower Florida State University This case study explores an often overlooked phenomenon in the higher education literature: Students transitioning from prison to college. The case presents the unique story of an African American male who made a series of life transitions from federal prison to homelessness to community college to a historically Black university, and finally to a predominantly White institution for graduate school. These transitions came as the result of successful coping strategies, which included social learning, hope, optimism, information seeking, and meaning-making. Some of the policy and research implications of ex-convicts returning to higher education after imprisonment are also considered. Keywords: African-American, Black, college access, prison, transition A middle-aged African American male named Robert Jones sits in a community college classroom feeling overwhelmed and unsure of himself. He has been released after spending ten years in federal prison for drug trafficking. After prison, he was homeless for a period of time, but now he is sitting in a community college classroom thanks to his own efforts and the local homeless coalition’s program to help ex-convicts gain housing, employment, and education. He vividly describes his experience on his first day of community college: I tell you, I swear my head was hurting. I’m serious. I was, like, in class, you know, like Charlie Brown, I had sparks going everywhere. I was like, it’s like that came to my mind and I was like now I see how Charlie Brown feels. -
Religion As a Cultural System: a Multiculturalism Education Model in Bali Based on Local Tradition
PSYCHOLOGY AND EDUCATION (2021) 58(1): 4198-4206 An Interdisciplinary Journal RELIGION AS A CULTURAL SYSTEM: A MULTICULTURALISM EDUCATION MODEL IN BALI BASED ON LOCAL TRADITION Made Saihu1, Hamdani Anwar2, Suhada3, Abd. Aziz4, Lilis Fauziah Balgis5 1Institute of PTIQ Jakarta, Indonesia 2State Islamic University of Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta, Indonesia 3Islamic College of Al-Hikmah Jakarta, Indonesia 4Islamic College of Al-Amin, South Tangerang, Indonesia 5University of Juanda Bogor, Indonesia Abstract This study discusses the harmony of Hindus and Muslims in Jembrana Bali is seen from a religious point of view as a cultural system involving both religious adherents. The Ngejot and Male traditions are local traditions that show this Hindu-Muslim harmony. Through the theoretical approach of religion as a cultural system, this ethnographic study emphasizes the importance of embodying religious traditions through local culture. Although the tradition of Male originates from the Islamic tradition, cultural influences are able to encourage adaptation to Balinese customs so that harmony is more easily maintained. Here the Muslims understand their position to protect and respect the dominant culture adhered to by the majority of Hindus in Jembrana Bali. The same thing is done by Hindus who try to show a good response to Muslims by involving them in the tradition of Ngejot which was originally a Hindu tradition of worshiping God, to some extent shown by adjustments so as not to conflict with Muslim beliefs. A wealth of local traditions that shows a portrait of harmony between religious communities in Indonesia and becomes a model for multiculturalism education based on local traditions.

Against All Odds? Birth Fathers and Enduring Thoughts of the Child Lost to Adoption
genealogy Article Against All Odds? Birth Fathers and Enduring Thoughts of the Child Lost to Adoption Gary Clapton School of Social and Political Science, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh EH8 9YL, UK; [email protected] Received: 4 March 2019; Accepted: 25 March 2019; Published: 29 March 2019 Abstract: This paper revisits a topic only briefly raised in earlier research, the idea that the grounds for fatherhood can be laid with little or no ‘hands-on’ experience of fathering and upon these grounds, an enduring sense of being a father of, and bond with, a child seen once or never, can develop. The paper explores the specific experiences of men whose children were adopted as babies drawing on the little research that exists on this population, work relating to expectant fathers, personal accounts, and other sources such as surveys of birth parents in the USA and Australia. The paper’s exploration and discussion of a manifestation of fatherhood that can hold in mind a ‘lost’ child, disrupts narratives of fathering that regard fathering as ‘doing’ and notions that once out of sight, a child is out of mind for a father. The paper suggests that, for the men in question, a diversity of feelings, but also behaviours, point to a form of continuing, lived fathering practices—that however, take place without the child in question. The conclusion debates the utility of the phrase “birth father” as applied historically and in contemporary adoption processes. Keywords: birth fathers; adoption; fatherhood 1. Introduction There can be an enduring psychological/attachment bond between the child and their biological father that is of significance both to the child and the father, whether the father is present, absent or indeed has never been known to the child (Clapton 2007, pp. -

Fighting Against All Odds: Entrepreneurship Education As Employability Training
the author(s) 2013 ISSN 1473-2866 (Online) ISSN 2052-1499 (Print) www.ephemerajournal.org volume 13(4): 717-735 Fighting against all odds: Entrepreneurship education as employability training Karin Berglund abstract In this paper the efforts of transforming ‘regular’ entrepreneurship to a specific kind of ‘entrepreneurial self’ in education are linked to the materialization of employability. It will be illustrated that schoolchildren, under the guise of entrepreneurship education, are taught how to work on improving their selves, emphasizing positive thinking, the joy of creating and awareness of the value of their own interests and passions. This ethic reminds us that we can always improve ourselves, since the enterprising self can never fully be acquired. The flipside of this ethic is that, by continuously being encouraged to become our best, it may be difficult to be satisfied with who we are. Highlighted in this paper is that, with all the amusement and excitement present in entrepreneurship education, also comes an expectation of the individual to fight against all odds. Recruiting students to this kind of shadow-boxing with their selves should involve critical reflection on its political dimensions, human limits, alternative ideals and the collective efforts that are part of entrepreneurial endeavours. Prologue ‘I have never needed to look for a job. I found my own way.’ It is an evening when dinnertime has been delayed due to one of those deadlines that most academics continually seem to struggle with. The TV is on in the background and I am just about to get the dinner ready when I hear a woman talk about how she made it as an entrepreneur in life, never having to search for a job, but carving out a life path of her own. -
