A Case Study of USA and Nigeria1 Billy Agwanda2 İstanbul Commerce University, Graduate Student, Department of African Studies and International Relations, İstanbul, Turkey Received-Accepted: 08.07.2019-06.09.2019 Research Article Abstract During the past few decades, there has been attacks directed towards the discipline of history especially from postmodernist scholars who continue to emphasize that history is simply a form of narrative with questionable objectivity. These writers construe history as human construct that signifies and facilitates our understanding of the past. Throughout the development in human societies, History was a fundamental pillar and was once conceived as a noble discipline reserved only for the Royal families and the Nobles surrounding them. However, the 21st century is recording one of the lowest points for the discipline which has increasingly come under threat from the transformations in the dynamics of the society fuelled by a deeply entrenched capitalist system that influences the choice of careers in modern day society. Consequently, History has been relegated to a selective subject as a complement to other disciplines that are perceived to have higher

  • Old Aramaic Script in Georgia
    Grapholinguistics in the 21th Century Paris, June 17-19, 2020 Helen Giunashvili G. Tsereteli Institute of Oriental Studies/Ilia State University, Georgia OLD ARAMAIC SCRIPT IN GEORGIA Introduction Aramaic is mostly important for Georgia. All the three historical phases of this language: Old, Middle and Modern are well represented in the Georgian cultural tradition. On the territory of contemporary Georgia, mainly in its Eastern part‒Kartli being historically Iberian kingdom (IV c BC-IV c AD) a number of original Aramaic inscriptions were found. They were made on different objects: steles (an epitaph and a victory stele), bone plates, wine- pitchers, silver bowls, and household items, stones of sanctuary buildings and sarcophagi, jewels. For the present, the whole corpus of inscriptions comprises nearly 100 units dated by III-II cc BC –III c AD and is kept at different funds of the National Museum of Georgia. These ancient Aramaic inscriptions were discovered in Mtskheta, the capital of Iberia as well as its outskirts – Armazi, Bagineti and other different locations in Central Georgia – Uplistsikhe, Urbnisi, Zguderi, Bori, Dedoplis Gora (Mindori), Dzalisa. The Aramaic inscriptions of Georgia are distinguished by their form and content. Some of them are quite extensive, such as Armazi steles and a number of dedicational inscriptions dated by III c AD, found on golden bracelets from Armazi burials. The rest of inscriptions are rather short, consisting only of one or two words, denoting a proper name, or a title, they also frequently have an attributive meaning of weight, size and function of an object. The Old Aramaic was one of chief written languages of Iberia before adoption the Christianity (IV century AD).

Masik'), de 5.165 m., on neixen rius de curs impetuós com l'Aras i l'Eufrates, que, nodrits per les neus del llarg i gèlid hivern armeni, irriguen les terres del sud fins a la plana mesopotàmica. Els armenis (arm. Hayk'), localitzats des del s. VI aC en aquest espai geogràfic, abans ocupat per Urartu, habitaven, doncs, un enclavament estratègic sovint cobejat pels grans imperis sedentaris de la zona (medes, aquemènides, parts arsàcides, sassànides, àrabs, etc) i sotmès alhora a les incursions dels nòmades del nord del Caucas.

  • Choosing Inscriptions Making Font for 'Armazuli' Aramaic Objectives Mark up of the Texts and Linked Data New Photo Document
    @EAGLE 2016, Rome Epigraphic Corpus of Georgia Inscriptions found in Georgia are diverse in their typology, content and language. From among this range perhaps the most compelling examples are those inscriptions The Institute of Linguistic Research, in Aramaic and Old Greek (numbering more than 1000), and dating from V AC to XIX (T. Kaukhchishvili 2009.) None of these have been published online according to the EpiDoc guidelines. Thanks to a year’s funding from The Institute of Linguistic Research of the Ilia State University (ISU), the “Epigraphic Corpus of Georgia Project”, Ilia State University led by Prof. Nino Doborjginidze, began on March 1st 2015. It aims to make the first, key 30 inscriptions available to both a scholarly audience and to the general public. It presents an opportunity to question the strict practice of the “print-only” publishing of epigraphic materials among Georgian epigraphists. Objectives New photo documentation and web page - epigraphy.iliauni.edu.ge A desired outcome of the digital publishing of the inscriptions of Georgia is, on the one hand, to preserve those inscriptions and likewise to preserve editions of these inscriptions that were made by Georgian experts from 1930s onwards, although only a few of these were published in international scientific journals because of the So- viet restrictions. Thus the aims of the project can be summarized thus: • to protect these inscriptions as an element of our cultural heritage • to document the printed critical editions of the inscriptions, which likewise consti- tute a part of that cultural heritage • to demonstrate and illustrate common, historical-cultural contexts(e.g.

  • St. Sidonia of Georgia
    St. Sidonia Of Georgia Commemorated on October 1 During the reign of King Aderki of Kartli, the Jewish people in Mtskheta learned that a wondrous Child had been born in Jerusalem. Thirty years later, a man came from Jerusalem to deliver this message: “The youth has grown up. He calls Himself the Son of God and preaches to us the New Covenant. We have sent envoys to every Jewish community to urge the scholars of the religion to come to Jerusalem and judge what measures should be taken in regard to this matter.” In response to the envoy’s request and at the recommendation of the Jewish Sanhedrin, Elioz of Mtskheta and Longinoz of Karsani were chosen to journey to Jerusalem. Elioz was born to a pious family, and as his mother prepared him for the journey, she tearfully begged him not to take any part in the spilling of the Messiah’s blood. When the Roman soldiers were nailing our Savior to the Cross on Golgotha, Elioz’s mother miraculously heard each strike of the hammer. She cried out in fear, “Farewell majesty of the Jews! For inasmuch as you have killed your Savior and Redeemer, henceforth you have become your own enemies!” With this she breathed her last. After the soldiers had cast lots for the Robe of our Lord, it was acquired by Elioz and Longinoz, and with great honor they carried it back with them to Mtskheta. Upon their arrival, Elioz met his sister Sidonia, who took from him the Sacred Robe. With much grief, she listened to the story of our Savior’s Crucifixion, clutched the Robe to her breast, and immediately gave up her spirit.

  • Ivane Javakhishvili-Heritage Ivane Javakhishvili and Historiography
    Complied by Nino Chachanidze, Teacher of English And American Studies, Rustavi Public school # 21 Ivane Javakhishvili-Heritage Ivane Javakhishvili and Historiography 1. With the small amount of scientists, lack of scientific base and not having scientific terminology in Georgian, society believed that it was impossible to establish university in Georgia. Ivane Javakhishvili, obsessed with the idea of creating university, coped with this task. As a scientist he headed the researches of almost every sphere of history. Ivane was the possession of the whole Georgian nation. He redeveloped historiography, Paleography. Diplomacy, economics, Georgian Law and music’s history. While In west Europe and Russia all the historical societies, historical institutions and higher schools worked on improving historiography, in Georgia, practically only Ivane solved this big problem. 2. He was studying the life of saint Nino, apostle Andria, also legatees of throne, life-story of Georgian kings and the stages of Georgian nation’s development. Actually there was no direction in historiography where Ivane Javakhishvili didn’t create his work. 3. After finishing Tbilisi classical school he continued studying in Leningrad, at the department of oriental studies, Georgian-Armenian philology, which was headed by Niko Mari and Alexander Tsagareli. Because it was considered that they didn’t had the specialist in the church history, they send Ivane Javakhshvili to Germany to famous scientist Harnak to learn the history of church. He did important work there: he translated in German “Martyrdom of Abo Tpileli” and “Martyrdom of Estate Mtskheteli”. With publication of them it became clear that Europe knew nothing about Georgian literature of Georgian hagiography.
