  • Representing the Algerian Civil War: Literature, History, and the State
    Representing the Algerian Civil War: Literature, History, and the State By Neil Grant Landers A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in French in the GRADUATE DIVISION of the UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY Committee in charge: Professor Debarati Sanyal, Co-Chair Professor Soraya Tlatli, Co-Chair Professor Karl Britto Professor Stefania Pandolfo Fall 2013 1 Abstract of the Dissertation Representing the Algerian Civil War: Literature, History, and the State by Neil Grant Landers Doctor of Philosophy in French Literature University of California, Berkeley Professor Debarati Sanyal, Co-Chair Professor Soraya Tlatli, Co-Chair Representing the Algerian Civil War: Literature, History, and the State addresses the way the Algerian civil war has been portrayed in 1990s novelistic literature. In the words of one literary critic, "The Algerian war has been, in a sense, one big murder mystery."1 This may be true, but literary accounts portray the "mystery" of the civil war—and propose to solve it—in sharply divergent ways. The primary aim of this study is to examine how three of the most celebrated 1990s novels depict—organize, analyze, interpret, and "solve"—the civil war. I analyze and interpret these novels—by Assia Djebar, Yasmina Khadra, and Boualem Sansal—through a deep contextualization, both in terms of Algerian history and in the novels' contemporary setting. This is particularly important in this case, since the civil war is so contested, and is poorly understood. Using the novels' thematic content as a cue for deeper understanding, I engage through them and with them a number of elements crucial to understanding the civil war: Algeria's troubled nationalist legacy; its stagnant one-party regime; a fear, distrust, and poor understanding of the Islamist movement and the insurgency that erupted in 1992; and the unending, horrifically bloody violence that piled on throughout the 1990s.

  • Rules of Draughts (Checkers)
    Rules of Draughts (Checkers) Draughts is a board game of skill played between two players who, following a fixed set of rules, attempt to win the game by either removing all of their opponent’s playing pieces from the draughts board, or by rendering their opponent’s pieces immobile. WCDF Rules of Draughts Preface: The following rules of draughts cannot cover every possible situation that may arise during the course of a game, nor can they regulate for all administrative questions. Where instances arise that are not precisely regulated for by the following rules of draughts, it should be possible for the tournament controller/ referee to reach a correct and fair decision by reflecting on analogous situations, and through the use of absolute objectivity. We believe that the rules should not be over prescriptive so as to deprive a tournament controller / referee of their freedom to make a judgement based on fairness, logic and unforeseen special factors. Section One: Equipment and Rules for Play. THE DRAUGHTBOARD AND ITS ARRANGEMENT 1.1 The draughtboard is composed of 64 squares, alternately light and dark arranged in a square array of 8 rows and 8 columns and bounded by a neutral border. 1.2 The official draughtboard for use in all major events shall be of Green and White (or off white/cream) colours for the dark and light squares. 1.3 The size of squares of the draughts boards should be between 4.5 and 5 centimetres. 1.4 At the commencement of play the draughtboard is placed between the players in such a way that a green square is to be found on the player’s near left side, and a white square to their right side.

A list of References, Page 27-28 (X). Softwares and Applications, Page 29 Introduction Checkers/Draughts is a traditional board game played in many countries. To play the game, one needs a chess board and pieces traditionally called men. Now, to play the game, we must go over the most important questions [1] What board size should the player use? Depending on the checkers variant, it may be 8*8 , 10*10 or 12*12 or even 14*14. [2] What colour is the bottom left square? The colour depends on the checkers variant. It may be black or light [3] How many men should the player use? The number of men depends on the checkers variant and the size of the board. For example, 8*8 > 12 men, 10*10 > 20 men, 12*12 > 30 men. At the beginning, the number of men is equal for both players. [4] Where should the player locate the men? Usually playing is on the dark squares though some still play on light squares.

  • Draughts > Chess > Checkers
    1 Draughts > Chess > Checkers – A logical path Franco Pratesi As known, checkers is the American word corresponding to the Eng- lish word draughts; here I would like to use both terms, reserving draughts for varieties which are usually played on an unchequered board, such as the Turkish variety. Avigliano begins his book with the statement that checkers is certainly a simplified form of chess, the only problem being which of these two games is the parent of the other. Sim- ilar ideas can be found earlier and later. In his work on board games other than chess, Murray concludes that both chess and alquerque were the parents of checkers. In his recent work on the history of draughts Van der Stoep has instead stressed the alquerque-checkers relationship, indicating that most earlier suggestions of chess taking part in the evo- lution of checkers were really unnecessary. The argument here is that the evolution of checkers and chess is closely connected, to the point that chess can be considered a parent of checkers and vice versa. Or, using the words as indicated above, draughts is a parent of chess while chess is a parent of checkers. * * * Most people learn chess and checkers, without realizing that the games which they have become acquainted with, exist in many varie- ties. Different varieties are played in other countries, such as Chinese and Japanese chess. Thus, a review of chess-checkers interactions can- not be limited to two single games, but must take account of a number of varieties. For checkers several forms still exist, often played at a national level.
