Land, Labour and Entrustment
Diverse contractual arrangements and forms of exchange established between smallholder farmers, their households and community work groups, are important to our understanding of processes of agrarian transformation in Sub-Saharan Africa. However, little has been written in this area. Challenging portrayals of West African female farmers as a homogenous group, the present study provides an ethnographic account of the contractual relations established between female hosts and migrants, in the exchange of land and labour for agrarian production in a Gambian community. Further, it demonstrates the way in which, despite the liberalization of the economy, local cultural practices, such as that of entrustment, continue to be of significance in affecting the nature and particular character of agrarian transformation and postcolonial capitalist development.
Issues in English Teaching
Issues in English Teaching invites primary and secondary teachers of English to engage in debates about key issues in subject teaching. The issues discussed include: *the increasingly centralised control of the curriculum, assessment, and pedagogy in the school teaching of English in England and Wales as a result of initiatives such as the National Literacy Strategy *new technologies which are transforming pupils' lived experience of literacy or literacies *the accelerating globalisation of English and the independence of other versions of English from English Standard English. A National Curriculum with a nationalist perspective on language, literacy and literature cannot fully accommodate ...
Thy Will
Much inspired by human sensitivity, Poet's inner-self bemoans the distress of destitute, downtrodden, crippled and the poorest of poor on the Earth. He derives supreme joy in giving them succor and selfless service. He believes "nothing so important to man as man." With this mindset, he laid his hands on English poetry composition from his boyhood days. The poet deeply feels and believes, if human soul is rekindled even by a dim ray of divine flame, the noble human qualities are easy to surface. Through his poems, pregnant with sublime ideas, he has chosen to touch the hearts of his readers. The poem THY WILL is deeply embedded to divinity, and upholds acceptance of divine supremacy in all facets of our life and is dedicated to mankind.
Changing the Terms
This volume explores the theoretical foundations of postcolonial translation in settings as diverse as Malaysia, Ireland, India and South America. Changing the Terms examines stimulating links that are currently being forged between linguistics, literature and cultural theory. In doing so, the authors probe complex sequences of intercultural contact, fusion and breach. The impact that history and politics have had on the role of translation in the evolution of literary and cultural relations is investigated in fascinating detail. Published in English.
