Frederick Douglass and Ireland In His Own Words

Frederick Douglass and Ireland In His Own Words

Frederick Douglass spent four months in Ireland at the end of 1845 that proved to be in his own words ‘transformative’. He reported that for the first time in his life he felt like a man and not a chattel. Whilst in residence he became a spokesperson for the abolition movement but by the time he left the country in early January 1846 he believed that the cause of the slave was the cause of the oppressed everywhere. This book adds new insight into Frederick Douglass and his time in Ireland. Contemporary newspaper accounts of the lectures that Douglass gave during his tour of Ireland (in Dublin Wexford Waterford Cork Limerick and Belfast) have been located and transcribed. The speeches are annotated and accompanied by letters written by Douglass during his stay. In this way for the first time we hear Douglass in his own words. | Frederick Douglass and Ireland In His Own Words

Studies in Indo-Muslim History by S.H. Hodivala Volume I A Critical Commentary on Elliot and Dowson’s History of India as Told by Its Own Hi

Studies in Indo-Muslim History by S.H. Hodivala Volume I A Critical Commentary on Elliot and Dowson’s History of India as Told by Its Own Hi

In the field of medieval Indian historiography an eight-volume magnum opus History of India as Told by Its Own Historians by Sir Henry Myers Elliot (1808-53) and the editor-compiler of his posthumous papers John Dowson (1820-81) was published from London between 1867 and 1877. These landmark volumes continue to retain their popularity even nearly hundred and fifty years later and scholars still learn from and conduct their research on the basis of this work. However an enterprise of this scale and magnitude was bound to suffer from some serious shortcomings. An eminent Indian scholar S. H. Hodivala undertook the daunting task of annotating Elliot and Dowson’s volumes and worked through all the new material selecting or criticizing and adding his own suggestions where previous comments did not exist or appeared unsuitable. The first volume of Hodivala’s annotated Studies was published in 1939 while the second was published posthumously in 1957. Over the years while the work of Elliot and Dowson has seen many reprints and is even available online now Hodivala’s volumes have receded into obscurity. A new edition is presented here for the first time. Hodivala also published critical commentaries on 238 of about 2000 entries included in another very famous work Hobson-Jobson (London 1886) by Sir Henry Yule (1820-89) and Arthur Coke Burnell (1840-82). These have also been included in the present edition. These volumes are thus aimed at serving as an indispensable compendium of both Elliot and Dowson’s and for Yule and Burnell’s excellent contributions of colonial scholarship. At the same time these would also serve as a guide for comparative studies and critical appreciation of historical texts.

Only one country in the world-Switzerland-is a direct democracy in which to an extent the people pass their own laws judge the constitutionality of statutes and even have written in effect their own constitution. In this propitious volume Gregory Fossedal reports on the politics and social fabric of what James Bryce has called the nation that has taken the democratic idea to its furthest extent. The lessons Fossedal presents at a time of dissatisfaction with the role of money and privileged elites in many Western democracies are at once timely and urgent. | Direct Democracy in Switzerland

Liberating The Learner Lessons for Professional Development in Education

Liberating The Learner Lessons for Professional Development in Education

There is clear evidence that the quality of children's learning in school is very dependant on the style of the teacher's approach and the learning environment he or she creates. This in turn is a reflection of teachers own beliefs anxieties and enthusiasms about learning often gained through their own educational experiences. This edited volume provides a new framework for exploring teachers' views on a whole range of professional issues for instance the nature of teaching and learning the needs of students and their own abilities as learners. Within this is presented a variety of case studies which illustrate how teachers' views impact upon students' learning. The book builds on the well established assumption that teachers are themselves also learners and that the learning processes involved in professional development are in many ways the same as those involved in a classroom context. It shows how the conclusions drawn from this study can be used in a practical way to assist teachers' professional development throughout their career. All teacher trainers and mentors who take seriously their role of helping children to be resourceful resilient and reflective learners will find that this book helps them to achieve this aim. | Liberating The Learner Lessons for Professional Development in Education
