  • BBC Music Booklet Celebrating 80 Years of Music.Pdf
    Celebrating Years of Music A Serenade to Music “We are the music-makers And we are the dreamers of dreams…” (Arthur William Edgar O’Shaughnessy, Ode) The story of BBC Northern Ireland’s involvement in nurturing and broadcasting local musical talent is still in the making. This exhibition provides a revealing glimpse of work in progress at the BBC’s Community Archive in documenting the programmes and personalities who have brought music in all its different forms to life, and looks at how today’s broadcasters are responding to the musical styles and opportunities of a new century. It celebrates BBC NI’s role in supporting musical diversity and creative excellence and reflects changes in fashion, technology and society across 80 years of local broadcasting. “ Let us celebrate the way we were and the way we live now. Much has been achieved since 2BE’s first faltering (and scarcely heard) musical broadcast in 1924. Innovation has Let us celebrate the ways we will be... been a defining feature of every decade from early radio concerts in regional towns and country halls to the pioneering work of Sean O’Boyle in recording traditional music and Sam Hanna Bell’s 1950s programmes of Belfast’s Let us count the ways to celebrate. street songs.The broadcasts of the BBC Wireless Orchestra and its successors find their contemporary echo in the world-class performances of the Ulster Orchestra and BBC NI’s radio and television schedules continue to Let us celebrate.” reverberate to the diverse sounds of local jazz, traditional and country music, religious services, brass bands, choirs, (Roger McGough - Poems of Celebration) contemporary rock, pop and dance music.

  • Jung on Astrology
    Jung on Astrology Jung on Astrology brings together C. G. Jung’s thoughts on astrology in a single volume for the fi rst time, signifi cantly adding to our understanding of his work. Jung’s Collected Works , seminars, and letters contain numerous discussions of this ancient divinatory system, and Jung himself used astrological horoscopes as a diagnostic tool in his analytic practice. Understood in terms of his own psychology as a symbolic representation of the archetypes of the collective unconscious, Jung found in astrology a wealth of spiritual and psychological meaning and suggested it represents the “sum of all the psychological knowledge of antiquity.” The selections and editorial introductions by Safron Rossi and Keiron Le Grice address topics that were of critical importance to Jung – such as the archetypal symbolism in astrology, the precession of the equinoxes and astrological ages, astrology as a form of synchronicity and acausal correspondence, the qualitative nature of time, and the experience of astrological fate – allowing readers to assess astrology’s place within the larger corpus of Jung’s work and its value as a source of symbolic meaning for our time. The book will be of great interest to analytical psychologists, Jungian psy- chotherapists, and academics and students of depth psychology and Jungian and post-Jungian studies, as well as to astrologers and therapists of other orientations, especially transpersonal. Safron Rossi, PhD, is a Professor of mythology and depth psychology in the Jungian and Archetypal Studies specialization at Pacifi ca Graduate Institute, Cali- fornia. For many years she was curator of the Joseph Campbell and James Hillman manuscript collections.

  • Repudiation of Rights and Subalternity in Githahariharan's
    Journal of Xi'an University of Architecture & Technology ISSN No : 1006-7930 Repudiation of Rights and Subalternity in GithaHariharan’s The Ghosts of Vasu Master *Dr Sheeba S. Nair, Assistant Professor of English, SreeAyyappa College for Women, Chunkankadai,Affiliated to ManonmaniamSundaranar University, Tirunelveli *Dr. R. Janatha Kumari, Assistant Professor of English, SreeAyyappa College for Women, Chunkankadai, Affiliated to ManonmaniamSundaranar University, Tirunelveli. Abstract: The culturally diverse country like India experiences a breach in establishing equality due to the prevalence of so many behavioural patterns, beliefs and ideologies both social and political. This results in the culmination of some culture attaining hegemony over others and discriminating the people of these cultural practices and suppressing them. This is an issue of high social concern which the eminent diaspora writer Githa Hariharan addresses in her fiction The Ghosts of Vasu Master. This paper looks at different factors that accelerate the repudiation of rights including physical deformity. Besides remonstrating such discriminatory factors, this paper strives to highlight the need to establish equality in the society which is inevitable for the humanity to thrive in this global world. Key Words: Diaspora; Culture; Human rights; Subalternity; Normalcy; Feminism. Refutation of human rights is a global phenomenon which is increasing day by day especially in developing counties like India. India being a pluralistic country is known for its diverse cultural patterns. These cultural patterns are decided by different religions, languages, castes, community, class and creed. These classifications divide the people of India into various strata and there is constantly a cultural pull among the people belonging to these diverse groups.

  • Educating Andrew
    EDUCATING ANDREW A PROMISE FULFILLED by Virginia Lanier Biasotto © 2006 by Virginia Biasatto All rights reserved. DEDICATION In the spring of 2003, my mother and I were sitting on her porch reminiscing about Andrew. Her questions awakened memories about the past, and I retold stories about the journey to find the solution for his inability to read. In spite of some short-term memory issues, she hung onto every word. When I was finished, she said, “You must write these stories down.” I was glad that she thought them interesting, but life’s pressures didn’t allow much time for writing. However, she was not to be dissuaded. I would get phone calls saying, “I know you are busy. But you must write those stories down.” One day it came to me that I had written them down. I wrote them down as they happened. I started to dig (I was never much at throwing things away) and low and behold I discovered a large yellowed envelope with the word “ANDREW” printed on it. Inside were a hundred or more typed pages. For a Christmas gift to my mother, I retyped them on the computer and presented them to her in book form. During her final years, she read the book about once a week. Guests in her home had to read it, too. She was very persuasive! It was her encouragement that led me to submit Educating Andrew for publication, and it is to her, Alice Darby Lanier, that I dedicate it. 2 CONTENTS Andrew ........................................................................................................................................ 6 Breakthrough .............................................................................................................................. 9 Connie ........................................................................................................................................
