  • Although a Quality Text Will Explore Universal Human Concerns, All Texts
    Although a quality text will explore universal human concerns, all texts are fundamentally influenced by the values of the respective composer’s context, and therefore will not easily transcend time without the act of appropriation. Shakespeare’s play, The Tempest, has enduring value as it both reflects and criticises the standard perspectives of his Jacobean era. Margaret Atwood has effectively appropriated this text within her novel, Hag-Seed, by adapting Shakespeare’s concerns to a modern era and utilising it to critique her own societies context. Atwood transposes the exploration of the treatment of marginalised people from the ostracised figure of Caliban to the disadvantaged group of prisoners that Felix seeks to direct. She also translates Shakespeare’s temporal commentary of gender roles within the patriarchal society of 17th century England as depicted through Miranda, into the feminist character of Anne-Marie. Finally, Atwood has reflected the provocative discoveries made by Prospero, as he experienced a reassessment of previous perspectives in order to evaluate new perceptions, through Felix, who undergoes a similar transformation of self. In this respect, Atwood’s text transcends time through effectively becoming a portal which draws values from the Jacobean era and translates them so that modern audiences can reflect on themselves and their society. PARAGRAPH 1: Shakespeare’s play, The Tempest, explores the colonial expansion that took place during the 17th century and the vexed relationship between the ‘explorers’ and the indigenous, as the impacts of colonialization began to permeate the common beliefs of society. The negative insinuations associated with indigenous groups becomes evident within the text when Prospero, the embodiment of European colonisation, uses a zoomorphic description of Caliban to present him as a creature less than human, “not honoured with human shape” in which Shakespeare satirizes the ethnocentric view of white ‘explorers’.

  • Pablo Neruda - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Pablo Neruda - poems - Publication Date: 2011 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Pablo Neruda(12 July 1904 – 23 September 1973) Pablo Neruda was the pen name and, later, legal name of the Chilean poet and politician Neftalí Ricardo Reyes Basoalto. He chose his pen name after Czech poet Jan Neruda. Neruda wrote in a variety of styles such as erotically charged love poems as in his collection Twenty Poems of Love and a Song of Despair, surrealist poems, historical epics, and overtly political manifestos. In 1971 Neruda won the Nobel Prize for Literature. Colombian novelist Gabriel García Márquez once called him "the greatest poet of the 20th century in any language." Neruda always wrote in green ink as it was his personal color of hope. On July 15, 1945, at Pacaembu Stadium in São Paulo, Brazil, he read to 100,000 people in honor of Communist revolutionary leader Luís Carlos Prestes. During his lifetime, Neruda occupied many diplomatic positions and served a stint as a senator for the Chilean Communist Party. When Conservative Chilean President González Videla outlawed communism in Chile in 1948, a warrant was issued for Neruda's arrest. Friends hid him for months in a house basement in the Chilean port of Valparaíso. Later, Neruda escaped into exile through a mountain pass near Maihue Lake into Argentina. Years later, Neruda was a close collaborator to socialist President Salvador Allende. When Neruda returned to Chile after his Nobel Prize acceptance speech, Allende invited him to read at the Estadio Nacional before 70,000 people.

  • Insights Into Abdominal Pregnancy Gwinyai Masukume
    WikiJournal of Medicine, 2014, 1 (2) doi: 10.15347/wjm/2014.012 Review Article Insights into abdominal pregnancy Gwinyai Masukume Editor’s note This article provided a great deal of valuable evidence that was not mentioned in the Wikipedia article on ab- dominal pregnancy, and the Wikipedia article has subsequently been expanded with text from this publication. However, because of this purpose, it has never been the aim of this article in itself to be a complete review of the subject, and many aspects of abdominal pregnancy are not included herein.

C.M Nkabinde and M.H Motswaledi. Distributed under Creative Commons CC-BY 3.0 Abstract The word lithopedion is a descriptive term derived from the Greek words litho (meaning stone), and pedion (meaning child). This is a rare condition with less than 300 cases reported in 400 years of medical literature. Lithopedion is a name given to an extra-uterine pregnancy that evolves to foetal death and calcification. This rare phenomenon, that was first described in the 10 th century by Albucasis, a surgeon of the Arabic era of medicine, is a sequelae of a form of ectopic pregnancy. Most cases of lithopedion are discovered incidentally on abdominal x-ray, at surgery, or autopsy. We report a case of lithopedion in a woman who presented with a hypertensive cerebrovascular accident. Keywords: Cerebrovascular accident; hypertension; abdominal pregnancy; lithopedion; lithokelyphopedion. Introduction pregnancy is 1:11 000 pregnancies, and lithopedion occurs in 1,5% to 1,8% of these A lithopedion as an extra-uterine cases¹.

Stambeli is shaped by pre-Islamic West African animist beliefs, spiritual healing and trances. The genre arrived in Tunisia when sub-Saharan Africans arrived in the north through slavery, migration or trade from present-day countries like Mauritania, Mali and Chad. Today, it is a geographic and cultural intersection of sub-Saharan, North and West African influences.
