ABSTRACT Yahiya Abbas Abboud al-Hasanawi, famous for (Yahiya al-Samawi), was born in the city of Samawah, Iraq, on the 16th of March 1949 CE, and is a contemporary Iraqi poet and writer who is one of the distinguished poets of the modern era. He contributed creatively to the three forms of ancient heritage-splitting poetry, modern activism and the modernist prose poem, and in supplementing and enriching the structure of the Arab poetic map in the modern poem in general, and the Iraqi in particular and renewing it with his creative cultural creative talent and his distinct expressive style. He was a brilliant intellectual poet, educated, ambitious, and bold in his poetry, and devoted a great deal of his attention and self-care, and his creative effort in his sober poetic speeches for the cause of (women), the symbol of love for the homeland, the land and life. This feeling led him to enter the midst of her visible, visible and invisible image. -
The Right to Inquire: Approaching the Civil Rights Movement Through Poetry
Teachers & Writers Collaborative www.twc.org by Laura Gamache The Right to Inquire: Approaching the Civil Rights Movement through Poetry Volume 36, Issue 2, page 13 Genre: Poetry Grade: 4, 5, 6 Population: All Laura Gamache writes poetry and nonfiction. She has been a teaching artist with the Washington State Arts Commission’s Arts in Education Program since 1995, and a writer-in-the-schools with Seattle Arts and Lectures’ WITS Program since 1997. Approaching the Civil Rights Movement through Poetry Jason Lee Middle School is perched in an area above the docks and railroad terminus of central Tacoma, Washington, which has housed a succession of immigrant populations throughout the last century. Recent arrivals from Ukraine, Ethiopia, Somalia, and Central and South America have entered a community that struggles against being identified as disadvantaged. In January of 2003, I was invited by seventh-grade language arts teachers Justina Johnson and Chad Davidson to deliver a series of poetry workshops in conjunction with their current unit on the Civil Rights Movement. My goal was to get the students to care about civil rights by bringing the subject into the present tense. Most of my students’ parents were born after 1965, so the children were already twice removed from the roots of the movement. I wanted to show them that movements mean just that: actions towards change put in motion by questions. The first question middle-school students have is, “What does this have to do with me?” By asking the age-old question: “Where are you from?” I invited them to see themselves in the context of the ongoing pursuit of the American dream of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. -

Arabic Poetry: Trajectories of Modernity and Tradition
ARABIC POETRY Since the late 1940s, Arabic poetry has spoken for an Arab conscience, as much as it has debated positions and ideologies, nationally and worldwide. This book tackles issues of modernity and tradition in Arabic poetry as manifested in poetic texts and criticism by poets as participants in transformation and change. Arabic Poetry studies the poetic in its complexity as pertaining to issues of: ● Selfhood ● Individuality ● Community ● Religion ● Ideology ● Nation ● Class and ● Gender This book also studies in context, issues that have been cursorily noticed or neglected, like Shi’i poetics, Sufism, women’s poetry, and expressions of exilic consciousness. It employs current literary theory and provides comprehensive coverage of modern and postmodern poetry from the 1950s onwards. Arabic Poetry is essential reading for those with interests in Arabic culture and literature and Middle East studies. Muhsin J. al-Musawi is Professor of Middle East and Asian Studies at Columbia University and University Professor at the American University of Sharjah. He has published 24 books in English and Arabic, including Scheherazade in England and The Postcolonial Arabic Novel. He is the editor of Journal of Arabic Literature. In 2002 he received the Owais Award in literary criticism, the most prestigious nongovernmental award in the Arab world. ROUTLEDGE STUDIES IN MIDDLE EASTERN LITERATURE Editors James E. Montgomery University of Cambridge Roger Allen University of Pennsylvania Philip F. Kennedy New York University Routledge Studies in Arabic and Middle Eastern Literature is a monograph series devoted to aspects of the literatures of the Near and Middle East and North Africa, both modern and pre-modern. -
Building Super Structures Through “Buckyballs and Buckytubes” Anuraag Boddupalli* Manipal Institute of Technology, India
Boddupalli, 1:8 http://dx.doi.org/10.4172/scientificreports.396 Open Access Open Access Scientific Reports Scientific Reports Rapid Communication OpenOpen Access Access Building Super Structures through “Buckyballs and Buckytubes” Anuraag Boddupalli* Manipal Institute of Technology, India Abstract Fullerenes or buck series of hollow carbon molecules that form either a closed cage (“buckyballs”) or a cylinder (carbon “nanotubes”) represent an exciting group of nanomaterials which have a beauty and elegance that excites the imagination of scientists and nonscientists alike, as they bridge aesthetic gaps between the sciences, architecture, mathematics, engineering, and the visual arts. Since the discovery of fullerenes in 1985, structural variations on fullerenes have evolved well beyond the individual clusters themselves. Their tremendous significance is related to their unique chemistry, super conductivity, and their technological applications, especially in materials science, electronics, and nanotechnology. Researchers are now slowly unraveling the multifaceted attributes of these molecules for improving society and environment. Keywords: Carbon; Geodesic dome; Fullerenes; Nanotubes; Nanomotors Introduction Nanotechnology represents a subject which is a synthesis of different sciences and technologies at the nanometer scale. In other words, it involves a different approach to the way we arrange and rearrange matter, which in turn can be harnessed to develop need based technologies. Until 1985, graphite and diamond were believed to be the only naturally occurring forms of carbon. In the year 1902, seven year old Buckminster Fuller, like all his other classmates was given a set of toothpicks and peas to design whatever he wanted in the class. The objective of that exercise was to judge the creativity and aptitude of the child, but it took several years for people to realize the immense significance of the truncated icosahedron structure that little Figure 1: A buckminsterfullerene or a ‘Buckyball’ showing inter-atomic linkages. -
