By Muna Al-Fuzai [email protected] very little thing done by any woman matters to a lot of people. This is a fact of life, and for Ethis I say ‘thank you!’ Well, men, you have to deal with this day, because no matter how impor- tant you think you are, women carry out lots of dif- ferent tasks at any time every single day of the year, so please let her make this day her own. She deserves it. Women’s Day is not another Valentine’s Day. It is a day to recall, renew and revamp our thinking and appreciation for all women for what they do so life can go on. International Women’s Day is celebrated on March 8 every year. It commemorates the strug- gle for women’s rights. Many countries celebrate International Women’s Day to remember the achievements of all women irrespective of their reli- gion, language, culture and economic, social or political status. The United Nations charter in 1945 was the first international convention that affirmed the princi- ples of equality between men and women. Through time, the United Nations has tried to set up plans and programs to support and empower women to enable them to improve their conditions. I cannot say that the programs have benefited all women, but it is an attempt, and perhaps the most promi- nent and best attempt was the call to respect Fog shrouds Souq Sharq and its popular fishing pier in this early morning image by Kuna photographer Mustafa Albader. human rights and equality in rights for all humans. I believe in the empowerment of women by the United Nations to address political, economic and social challenges all over the world.

It is well known that many con- Self-help movement in Kuwait needs help servatives reject any kind of celebration on this day because of their backwardness, which led women to struggle and fight to get their rights. Unfortunately, women’s rights today are still fragile and prone to shattering. There are voices By Jeri Al-Jeri within the community claiming that we honor women throughout the year as mothers, etc., but [email protected] the truth is that men also issue laws against women without showing respect to their rights to defend their own issues.

  • Lass Chapter 07
    LITERARY LANGUAGE Sylvia Adamson 7.1 Introduction: the scope of this chapter The rise of a national Standard language in the period 1476–1776 (see Görlach this volume) had its literary counterpart in the formation of a national literature, embodied in the works of those whom influential opinion identified as the nation’s ‘best authors’. Indeed, the codifying of language and the canonising of literature were not merely simultaneous but symbi- otic processes, with the ‘best authors’ being quarried for instructive exam- ples as much by grammarians and language teachers as by rhetoricans and literary critics. Dr Johnson, for instance, advised prospective readers of his Dictionary that ‘the syntax of this language . can be only learned by the distinct consideration of particular words as they are used by the best authors’ (Johnson 1747: 19). And Johnson’s was not an innovative attitude. He was simply ratifying an alliance between Literary English and Standard English that was already being negotiated almost two centuries earlier. For when Puttenham advises sixteenth-century poets to write in ‘the vsuall speach of the Court, and that of London and the shires lying about London within lx. myles, and not much aboue’ ([1589]: 145), his sixty-mile radius draws the boundary not of a homogeneous regional dialect, but rather of an emerging establishment variety, centred on the Court and London and circumferenced by the universities of Cambridge and Oxford and the main seat of ecclesiastic power at Canterbury. The tradition represented by Puttenham and Johnson has proved a pow- erful one, gaining in strength as it became institutionalised in the syllabuses of nineteenth-century schools and twentieth-century universities.
