Tibetan Buddhism and Feminism in an In-Between Space
Tibetan Buddhism and Feminism in an In-between Space: A Creative-Critical Autoethnography in a Non-Western Woman’s Voice Sharin Shajahan Naomi Student ID: 32114843 This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University 30th June, 2017 This page intentionally left blank 2 I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work, which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. ………… Sharin Shajahan Naomi 3 This page intentionally left blank 4 This page intentionally left blank 5 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I always wanted to do PhD. on a subject with which I would find a spontaneous connection. I believe in the power of prayer. It is through the earnest prayer I am able to create intimate bonding with the divine, which is unseen and incomprehensible, yet the most intimate, the most understanding, and the kindest friend. God’s guidance and help come in simple ways; through friends, mentors and unknown strangers from whom I never expect help. That is the grace and beauty of trusting God and asking for his/her help. When I finally decided to do a PhD on Tibetan Buddhism and feminism, the help and guidance I received were incredible and beyond expectations. I am confused about where to start and whose name should appear first in my acknowledgment. Let’s go back to 2010 when I received an Australian Leadership Award and began a new life in Western Australia. I was studying for a Masters of Arts in Human Rights and it was at that time I began to dream of doing a PhD. -

Starten Met Jazz
Themalijst Starten met Jazz Inleiding De Openbare Bibliotheek Kortrijk heeft een zeer uitgebreide jazzcollectie een paar duizend cd’s en een paar duizend vinylelpees) waardoor het voor een leek moeilijk is het bos door de bomen te zien. Ik zie voor de leek die iets meer wil weten ver jazzmuziek drie opties: 1. Je komt naar de Bib en grasduint wat in onze fantastische collectie. Grote kans dat je de ‘verkeerde’ cd’s meeneemt en voorgoed de jazz afzweert. Wat jammer zou zijn.. 2. Je neemt enkel verzamel-cd’s mee, bijvoorbeeld de Klara cd’s 3. Ok, dan heb je een staalkaart van het beste wat er ooit verschenen is en wil je misschien nog iets dieper gaan, meer exploreren, meer voelen wat échte jazz is.. Dan lees je 4. De beknopte lijst hieronder die chronologisch in enkele tientallen cd’s je wegwijs maakt in de verschillende subgenres van de jazz. Verwacht geen uitgebreide biografieën of discografieën maar een kort situeren van de belangrijkste stromingen met haar prominentste vertegenwoordigers. Dit is alleen maar een kennismaking, een aanzet. Maar dit document probeert een chronologisch overzicht te geven met de belangrijkste namen per sub genre. Als je van al deze artiesten één cd beluisterd hebt, kan je al wat meepraten voor jazz. Het is belangrijk op te merken dat al die sub genres soms zeer lang blijven en zelfs heropleven. Uiteraard overlappen ze elkaar in de tijd. En weinig muzikanten beperken zich echt tot één stijl. Jazzrecensent Mark Van den Hoof stelt dat na de jaren ‘60 niets nieuws meer gebeurde in de jazz en dat men zich beperkt tot het spelen in de stijlen van de vorige eeuw. -

De term ‘instant composing’ is gemunt door Mengelberg en staat voor een specifieke vorm van muzikaal denken en handelen op basis van improvisatie. In instant composing is improviseren een vorm van ter plekke componeren. Dit proces is mede bepalend voor de bijzondere positie van ICP in de eigentijdse muziek. De methode ICP werkt alleen als de musici meester zijn op hun instrument en met elkaar tot in hun diepste wezen verbonden zijn. De huidige bezetting speelt inmiddels bijna 25 jaar in dezelfde samenstelling. Om beurten stelt een van de musici een setlist samen voor aanvang van het concert. (Voorbeeld setlist (handschrift Han Bennink): zie hieronder) Voor de instant composing-methode draagt een aantal orkestleden stukken of thema’s aan, in notenschrift uitgewerkt: soms niet mee dan een paar akkoorden, soms in uitgebreide arrangementen en varianten daartussen, die– op het podium – bedacht en gespeeld worden. -

UCSF UC San Francisco Electronic Theses and Dissertations Title Tibetan Medicine in Exile: The ethics, politics and science of cultural survival Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3207476k Author Kloos, Stephan Publication Date 2010 Peer reviewed|Thesis/dissertation eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Copyright (2010) by Stephan Kloos ii Acknowledgements There is an African saying that to raise a child, it takes a village. Similarly, it takes much more than one individual to finish a PhD dissertation, and indeed this one is indebted to the support, help, contribution and influence of more people than I can possibly mention in the space of a few pages. Some people stand out, though – perhaps most of all the two with whom everything began and ended (for now): Laurent Pordié, with whom my interest and work on Tibetan medicine in India began at a chance meeting in Ladakh in 1998, and who supported my work as a friend and mentor since then; and Vincanne Adams, advisor par excellence, who taught me as much by advice as by example, and whose unwavering support and dedication enabled me to bring my academic training to a happier completion than I could ever have imagined in 1998. I feel truly fortunate and very grateful to have had the pleasure and privilege to be shaped as a scholar and person by these two people. There were other people, too, who were key to my professional training and the writing of this dissertation. This applies first and foremost to Andre Gingrich, whose outstanding encouragement and professional support enabled me to pursue my PhD in the first place, and to retain ties to Austrian academia despite my long absence. -

Dear friends, I am very excited that the 24th annual New Directions Cello Festival (NDCF) will be held in Cologne, Germany this July 13-15, 2018. My long-held dream of holding New Directions outside of the United States is at last a reality! The NDCF has a history of moving around, which has helped us reach out to cellists and the interested public in many places. Over the years, the festival has been held in New York City, Boston, Connecticut, Wisconsin, Ithaca, NY and California. My co-director for this year’s festival is jazz cellist Gunther Tiedemann, who has been a guest artist at the festival twice (NDCF 2008 and 2016). He lives in Cologne and teaches at the Hochschule für Musik und Tanz (HfMT). Over the past two years, Gunther has worked - and continues to work - incredibly hard for NDCF 2018, interfacing with school and city administrations, collaborating with partners, sponsors, and our guest artists. Good work, Gunther! It is a joy and great pleasure to be co-creating this amazing festival with you! This being our first festival in Europe, we wanted to feature mostly cellists and their groups from various European countries. -
AN INCOMPLETE JOURNEY Archana P. Pandit Asst. Prof. Dept. Of
Review Of Research Volume-2, Issue- 4 , Jan -2013 ISSN : 2249-894X Available online at www. lbp.world _____________________________________________________________________________________ WHEEL OF LIFE: AN INCOMPLETE JOURNEY Archana P. Pandit Asst. Prof. Dept. of English, Haribhai V. Desai College, Pune University of Pune, Pune. ABSTRACT Fourth world literature refers to the written work of native people living in a land that has been taken over by non-natives. Fourth world people are the indigenous people who were thrown outside their homelands due to the invasions, forceful occupation or victory over their motherland. The term fourth world came into wide use after the publication of George Manuel’s “The fourth world: An Indian Reality”. He thinks of fourth world as the “indigenous people descended from a country’s aboriginal population and who today are completely or partly deprived of rights to their own territories and its riches”. Tibetan literature consists of any literature written in Tibetan language or arising out of Tibetan culture. Tibetan literature is mainly influenced by Buddhist philosophy. The “Wheel of Life” is the story of Namgyal Lhamo Taklha , who was raised in an aristocratic family in Tibet. She is married to the brother of Dalai Lama. In this stirring narrative, she tells the story of her own life while documenting the history of her nation. She has experienced the old Tibet before the Chinese invasion and she has witnessed how it slipped away from the hands of natives. It is vivid description of Tibetan refugee experience and painful years of exile. It is the story of one woman but it documents the nation’s history. -
Arhai's Balkan Folktronica: Serbian Ethno Music Reimagined for British
Ivana Medić Arhai’s Balkan Folktronica... DOI: 10.2298/MUZ1416105M UDK: 78.031.4 78.071.1:929 Бацковић Ј. Arhai’s Balkan Folktronica: Serbian Ethno Music Reimagined for British Market* Ivana Medić1 Institute of Musicology SASA (Belgrade) Abstract This article focuses on Serbian composer Jovana Backović and her band/project Arhai, founded in Belgrade in 1998. The central argument is that Arhai made a transition from being regarded a part of the Serbian ethno music scene (which flourished during the 1990s and 2000s) to becoming a part of the global world music scene, after Jovana Backović moved from her native Serbia to the United Kingdom to pursue an international career. This move did not imply a fundamental change of her musical style, but a change of cultural context and market conditions that, in turn, affected her cultural identity. Keywords Arhai, Jovana Backović, world music, ethno, Balkan Folktronica Although Serbian composer, singer and multi-instrumentalist Jovana Backović is only 34 years old, the band Arhai can already be considered her lifetime project. The Greek word ‘Arhai’ meaning ‘beginning’ or ‘ancient’ it is aptly chosen to summarise Backović’s artistic mission: rethinking tradition in contemporary context. Нer interest in traditional music was sparked by her father, himself a professional musician and performer of both traditional and popular folk music (Medić 2013). Backović founded Arhai in Belgrade in 1998, while still a pupil at music school Slavenski, and continued to perform with the band while receiving instruction in classical composition and orchestration at the Belgrade Faculty of Music. In its first, Belgrade ‘incarnation’, Arhai was a ten-piece band that developed a fusion of traditional music from the Balkans with am bient sounds and jazz-influenced improvisation, using both acoustic and electric instruments and a quartet of fe male vocalists.
