Dunelm, M.A. Sheffield Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy College of Arts University of Glasgow 2012 Dedicated to Dr Howard Thomas Miles (1931-2006) Abstract Battlefield sites are some of the most iconic locations in any nation’s store of heritage attractions and continue to capture the imagination of visitors. They have strong historic, cultural, nationalistic and moral resonances and speak to people on a national as well as a local scale. They have the power to provoke contention but at the same time foster understanding and respect through the consideration of deep moral questions. Battlefields are suffused with powerful stories of courage, sacrifice, betrayal and even cowardice. They have a strong sense of place and can provoke a range of cognitive and emotional reactions.

  • Preface Ho Chi Minh: “A Great Man of Culture”
    PREFACE HO CHI MINH: “A GREAT MAN OF CULTURE” n November 1987, in anticipation of the centenary of the birth Iof Ho Chi Minh in 1990, the General Conference of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) considered that “the international celebration of the anniversaries of eminent intellectual and cultural personalities contributes to the realization of UNESCO’s objectives and to international understanding,” and passed resolutions to recognize Ho Chi Minh as among the “great personalities … [who] have left an imprint on the development of the humanity.”iv The Gen- eral Conference acknowledged Ho Chi Minh as “a Vietnamese hero of national liberation and great man of culture”and “an out- standing symbol of national affirmation. [He] devoted his whole life to the national liberation of the Vietnamese people, contribut- ing to the common struggle of peoples for peace, national inde- pendence, democracy and social progress.”v The resolutions also suggested that the important and many-sided contribution of Presi- dent Ho Chi Minh in the field of culture, education and the arts crystallizes the cultural tradition of the Viet- namese people which stretches back several thousand years, and that his ideals embody the aspirations of peo- ples in the affirmation of their cultural identity and the promotion of mutual understanding.vi The General Conference encouraged the Member States to join in the commemoration “as a tribute to his memory, in order to spread knowledge of the greatness of his ideals and of his work for national liberation.”vii Ho Chi Minh’s work for national lib- eration was best known through his claiming independence for Vietnam from French colonialism.

  • Hate Symbols Database
    HATE ON DISPLAY™ HATE SYMBOLS DATABASE 1 HATE ON DISPLAY This database provides an overview of many of the symbols most frequently used by a variety of white supremacist groups and movements, as well as some other types of hate groups. You can find the full listings at adl.org/hate-symbols INTRODUCTION TO THE HATE ON DISPLAY HATE SYMBOLS DATABASE ADL is a leading anti-hate organization that was founded in 1913 in response to an escalating climate of anti-Semitism and bigotry. Today, ADL is the first call when acts of anti-Semitism occur and continues to fight all forms of hate. A global leader in exposing extremism, delivering anti-bias education and fighting hate online, ADL’s ultimate goal is a world in which no group or individual suffers from bias, discrimination or hate. ADL’s Center on Extremism debuted its Hate on Display hate symbols database in 2000, establishing the database as the first and foremost resource on the internet for symbols, codes, and memes used by white supremacists and other types of haters. Over the past two decades, Hate on Display has regularly been updated with new symbols and images as they have come into common use by extremists, as well as new functions to make it more useful and convenient for users. Although the database contains many examples of online usage and shared graphics, another feature that makes it unique is its emphasis on real world examples of hate symbols—showing them as extremists actually use them: on signs and clothing, graffiti and jewelry, and even on their own bodies as tattoos and brands.

Having been granted independence in 1946, the nominally sovereign Republic of the Philippines remained inextricably linked to the US through restrictive legislation, military bases, and decades of political and socio-economic patronage. In America’s closest developing world ally, and showcase of democratic values, Filipino President Ferdinand Marcos installed a brutal dictatorship in 1972, dramatically marking the end of democracy there.

  • Rethinking Missionaries from 1910 to Today
    "Rethinking Missionaries" from 1910 to Today Dana L. Robert In 1910, 1200 representatives of Protestant missionary societies met in Edinburgh, Scotland, to consider the meaning of Christian mission for their generation. In 2010, we gather as part of a worldwide network of meetings asking the same question. What has been the shape of Christian mission over the past century, and what is its future? Because human beings are God's hands and feet at work in the world, we must also ask the related question: What has it meant to be a missionary over the course of the last century? And most relevant to our gathering today, what does it mean to be United Methodist missionaries today? To "rethink mission" requires that we also "rethink missionaries," both for our own generation, and for those who will follow. Although apostolic vocation is a timeless calling, the work of mission takes its cue from its contemporary sociocultural context. Nobody expressed this as well as the great 20th century Methodist missionary E. Stanley Jones, who wrote in The Christ of the India Road, "Evangelize the inevitable." In other words, the missionary must bring the Gospel into contact with whatever is going on in the world. To "evangelize the inevitable" requires crossing boundaries to witness to Jesus Christ. But the nature of those boundaries changes according to the circumstances of each age. In this address, I will reflect on a few of the changing definitions of " missionary" from 1910 to today. "Rethinking missionaries" means asking what it means for us to "evangelize the inevitable." Except for the proverbial death and taxes, what seemed inevitable a century ago does not seem inevitable a hundred years later.
