Dictionaryinper00ramduoft.Pdf mmmmmmmm-^»mm: «liiWiilii : A *^ .-^ — DICTIONARY PERSIAN AND ENGLISH, WITH THB PRONUNCIATION OF PERSIAN WORDS THE ROMAN CHARACTER. BY THE LATB RAMDHUN SEN. SECOND EDITION. CALCUTTA PRINTED AT THE BAPTIST MISSION PRESS, CIRCULAR ROAD. 1841. I n b'lX'.X ' -^ PREFACE. Encouraged by the favorable reception given to his Persian and English Dictionary, the Compiler, the late Babu Ramdhun Sen, was induced to put a new edition of the work to press ; and as he thought its usefulness would be enhanced if the pronunciation of the Persian words were expressed in the Roman character, he resolved to introduce that improvement. He com- menced the work, but was not permitted to see its completion. Thinking it important that so valuable a work should not be lost to the public, and also being desirous of carrying into effect the design formed by my late much respected father, I took upon myself to complete the work. Its appearance has been long delayed owing to adverse circumstances for which I take this opportunity to apologize in order that any faults on my part may be overlooked by the generous public.

Venäjä tukee Presi- dentti Bašar al-Assadin hallintoa taistelussa kapinallisia ja Isisiä vastaan. Vuoden 2008 Georgian sodan jälkeen Venäjän asevoimissa aloitettiin reformi sen suorituskyvyn paran- tamiseksi. Syyrian intervention aikaan useat näistä uusista suorituskyvyistä ovat käytössä. Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli selvittää Venäjän ilmavoimien kyky tukea maaoperaatiota. Tutkimus toteutettiin tapaustutkimuksena. Tapauksina työssä olivat kolme Syyrian halli- tuksen toteuttamaa operaatiota, joita Venäjä suorituskyvyillään tuki. Venäjän interventiosta ei ollut saatavilla opinnäytetöitä tai kirjallisuutta. Tästä johtuen tutkimuksessa käytettiin lähdemateriaalina sosiaaliseen mediaan tuotettua aineistoa sekä uutisartikkeleita. Koska sosiaalisen median käyttäjien luotettavuutta oli vaikea arvioida, tutkimuksessa käytettiin videoiden ja kuvien geopaikannusta (geolocation, geolokaatio), joka

    Plantation Futures Katherine McKittrick Small Axe, Volume 17, Number 3, November 2013 (No. 42), pp. 1-15 (Article) Published by Duke University Press For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/532740 Access provided by City University of New York (26 Apr 2017 21:50 GMT) Plantation Futures Katherine McKittrick In 1991, the US General Services Administration began to unearth what is now known as the New York African Burial Ground at 290 Broadway in Lower Manhattan. In the cemetery, used between the late 1600s and 1796, between ten thousand and twenty thousand black slaves were interred before the land was filled in and built up in 1827, alongside other urban expansion projects. Since the unearthing in 1991, the handling and remembering of the dead bodies has unraveled into a series of contestations: as the black community staked a claim to the corpses and the burial ground to extend the political awareness of slavery, immense pressure was put on the scientific community to preserve the remains and gather data within a limited time frame (about one year). Few black scholars were invited to contribute to the excavation and analysis initially; indeed, the conditions under which the bodies were unearthed and preserved was said to be disrespectful and insensitive until Michael Blakey, an African American biological anthropologist, took the project to Howard University in 1994.1 After the remains were analyzed at Howard, they were returned to Lower Manhattan, reinterred at an official memorial site, and commemorated with the “African American Homecoming” celebration. Clearly the dead slaves incite a commonsense intermingling of scientific excitement and community mourning.

  • Production Notes
    PRODUCTION NOTES A Note from the Director The seed of Small Axe was sown 11 years ago, soon after my first film, Hunger. Initially, I had conceived of it as a TV series, but as it developed, I realized these stories had to stand alone as original films yet at the same time be part of a collective. After all, Small Axe refers to an African proverb that means together we are strong. The anthology, anchored in the West Indian experience in London, is a celebration of all that that community has succeeded in achieving against the odds. To me, it is a love letter to Black resilience, triumph, hope, music, joy and love as well as to friendship and family. Oh, and let’s not forget about food too! I recall each of these stories being told to me either by my parents, my aunt, and by experiencing racial discrimination myself growing up in the 70s and 80s. These are all our stories. I feel personally touched by each and every one of them. My five senses were awoken writing with Courttia Newland and Alastair Siddons. Images, smells, textures and old customs came flooding back. All five films take place between the late 60s and mid 80s. They are just as much a comment on the present moment as they were then. Although they are about the past, they are very much concerned with the present. A commentary on where we were, where we are and where we want to go. When the Cannes Film Festival selected Mangrove and Lovers Rock earlier this year, I dedicated both to George Floyd and all the other Black people that have been murdered, seen or unseen, because of who they are in the US, UK and elsewhere.

As he said, ‘However unfashionable it has now become, studying racial hierarchy and inequality provides a valuable means to extend those inquiries, to locate the edges of the human: blunt and sharp. And that, in turn, means refusing to run away from the idea of race and the forms of systematic knowledge it has enabled, but rather embracing and exploring them as an opportunity to know ourselves and our precious world better’ (Gilroy 2014: 22). Events unfolding in the six years since have only increased the acuity of Gilroy’s observation at the same time that they have shown how, in spite of all the progress also made, attempts at holding up privileges based on structural and systemic inequality, whether in terms of class, gender, or race, have only become more desperate.
