Starting out as a journalist, she developed her own non-fiction genre which brings together a chorus of voices to describe a specific historical moment. Her works include The Unwomanly Face of War (1985), Last Witnesses (1985), Boys in Zinc (1991), Chernobyl Prayer (1997) and Second-Hand Time (2013). She has won many international awards, including the 2015 Nobel Prize in Literature for ‘her polyphonic writings, a monument to suffering and courage in our time’. Andrew Bromfield earned his degree in Russian Studies at Sussex University and lived in Russia for several years. He has been a full-time translator of Russian literature for more than thirty years and is best known for translating modern authors, but his work also includes books on Russian art, Russian classics and non–fiction, with a range from Tolstoy to the Moscow Conceptualism Movement. On 20 January 1801 the Cossacks of the Don Hetman Vasily Orlov were ordered to march to India.

Since its first appearance in 1989, the Guidebook has been revised frequently to reflect changes occurring at the IAEA, within the United States Support Program to IAEA Safeguards (USSP), and in Vienna.

Prior to the Civil War, President Franklin Pierce was the first to have a Christmas tree in the White House. Today, American holiday celebrations include many traditions, especially those brought by ethnic groups to South Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. a b Christmas in South Bethlehem ~ An Ethnic Experience n Christmas Eve in 1947, fourteen year-old Portuguese immigrant, Armindo Souza arrived at Union Station withO his parents Antonio and Teresa, and his older brother, Antonio, Jr. From the station, they walked through four feet of snow to their home on Buchanan St. in South Bethlehem. In 1987, while a member of the Pennsylvania Governors Heritage Affairs Advisory Commission, Armindo headed Souza the first “Portuguese Heritage Week” proclaimed by the state. In the Pennsylvania State Capitol, Armindo noticed a collection of Christmas trees on display, decorated by resident ethnic groups from around the State. In 1991, while he served on the South Bethlehem Historical Society Board of Directors, Armindo applied a similar concept of decorating ethnic trees, which became Christmas in South Bethlehem—An Ethnic Experience. Through this annual Christmas tree display, ethnic diversity is known and celebrated in South Bethlehem—thanks to Armindo Souza. “Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year” 3 Christmas Trees and Traditions of South Bethlehem Ethnic Groups African-American Traditions — he tradition of decorating Christmas trees was adopted by African-Americans based on a practice by 19th century Americans.

  • Sacred Trees, Christmas Trees and New Year Trees: a Vision for the Future
    Sacred Trees, Christmas Trees and New Year Trees: A Vision for the Future By Caoimhghin Ó Croidheáin Theme: Environment, History Global Research, January 01, 2020 First published in January 2016 *** Trees are a very important part of world culture and have been at the centre of ideological conflict for hundreds of years. Over this time they have taken the form of Sacred trees, Christmas trees and New Year trees. In the current debates over climate change, trees have an immensely important role to play on material and symbolical levels both now and in the future. With the rising awareness of climate change, climate resilience i.e. the ability to recover from or adjust easily to misfortune or change, has become the focus of groups from local community action to global treaties. The planting of trees is an important action that everyone from the local to the global can engage in. Trees act as carbon stores and carbon sinks, and on a cultural level they have been used to represent nature itself the world over. As symbols, trees have been imbued with different meanings over time and I suggest here that they should continue to hold that central role as a prime symbol of our respect for nature, and not just at Christmas time but the whole year round in the form of a central community tree for adults and children alike. In an uncertain future, the absolute necessity of developing a society that harks back to much earlier forms of engagement with nature in a sustainable way will have to have a focal point.
