“Lost Boys Found” is an ongoing, interdisciplinary project that is collecting, recording and archiving the oral histories of the Lost Boys/Girls of Sudan. The collection is a work-in-progress, seeking to record the oral history of as many Lost Boys/Girls as are willing, and will be used in a future book.Age: 23Region: BentiuThis picture and bio was donated to the Lost Boys Found project from The Arizona Lost Boys Cente
Kuchunguza Ubiblia Katika Tamthiliya za Emmanuel Mbogo
No full textLengo kuu la utafiti huu lilikuwa kuchunguza ubiblia katika tamthiliya za Emmanuel Mbogo kupitia tamthiliya zake za Nyerere na Safari ya Kanaani (2015) na Sadaka ya John Okello (2015). Ili kufikia lengo kuu tulikuwa na malengo mahsusi mawili; kubainisha utokezaji wa Ubiblia katika tamthiliya za Emmanuel Mbogo na kueleza sababu za utokezaji wa Biblia/mwangwi wa Biblia katika kazi hizo teule za Emmanuel Mbogo. Sampuli ya utafiti huu iliteuliwa kwa kutumia mbinu ya usampulishaji lengwa. Tamthiliya teule za Sadaka ya John Okello na Nyerere na Safari ya Kanaani, ziliteulewa kwa maksudi kabisa kwa kuwa ndizo ambazo zimeweza kumpatia mtafiti data alizozihitaji. Data zilikusanywa kwa kutumia mbinu ya usomaji makini. Uchambuzi wa data katika utafiti huu ulifanywa kwa kutumia mkabala wa kimaelezo. Aidha ukusanyaji, uchambuzi na kujadili data kuliongozwa na nadharia ya mwingilianomatini. Matokeo ya utafiti huu yameonesha kuwa kuna Ubiblia mwingi katika tamthiliya za Emmanuel Mbogo alizoziandika miaka ya karibuni. Vipengele vya kifani ndivyo vimetumika katika kubainisha ubiblia huo. Vipengele hivyo ni jina la kitabu, hadithi za kibiblia, wahusika wa kibiblia, nukuu za kibiblia na mtindo wa ushairi. Tamthiliya hizi mbili tulizozitafiti za Emmanuel Mbogo; Sadaka ya John Okello na Nyerere na Safari ya Kanaani zimeakisi mwangwi mkubwa wa Biblia. Kwa mfano kisakale cha wana wa Israel kukaa utumwani Misri na kisha kuanza safari kurejea kwao Kanaani katika Biblia kinapatikana kitabu cha “Kutoka”. Kisakale hiki kimeakisiwa kwa wingi katika tamthiliya ya Nyerere na Safari ya Kanaani, Kanaani ni nchi iliyojaa maziwa na asali kwa mujibu wa kisakale hicho
E.-E. Duvillard de Durand , "Principes et formules du calcul des probabilités pour assigner les limites des variations des événements naturels (1813)", edizione a cura di L. Dell'Aglio e G. Israel, con un saggio introduttivo di L. Dell'Aglio e G. Israel
No full textEmmanuel-Étienne Duvillard de Durand (1755-1832) was known for his actuarial activities and for the construction of life tables, but his contribution to the analysis of social mathematics and the mathematical modelling of mortality long went unrecognized. His attempts to enter the prestigious Académie des Sciences and his ambition to add a probabilistic dimension to population statistics confirm that he was not only a brilliant mathematician, but also a scholar in the noblest sense of the term, to whom this book pays tribute. Principes et Formules du calcul des probabilités pour assigner les limites des variations des événements naturels, a treatise on the «principles and formulae of probability calculation to define the limits of variation in natural events» represents the culmination of his research, recognized in his time by scholars such as Lagrange, Legendre et Laplace, but later condemned to oblivion by the vicissitudes of history and a veritable conspiracy of silence. Duvillard’s previously unpublished work, transcribed and edited for the first time in this book, was written in 1813. Picking up on ideas set forth by the mathematician Jean-Henri Lambert in that same year, he examines mortality with a view to constructing an equation to describe the progressive extinction of a human generation. His work thus represents a turning point in the study of demographic phenomena and a first attempt to apply principles of probability calculation to population science. This is a truly pioneering text which aims to provide an exact evaluation of the limits to be defined when estimating the size of a population. The editors of this treatise – Giorgio Israel, who first uncovered these unpublished archives, and Luca Dell’Aglio – have accomplished a considerable feat. Together, they have patiently deciphered, dissected and transcribed this handwritten text and authored an accompanying essay which places the document in its historical and scientific context. Their work is a historical tribute, aiming to render justice to a man of exceptional qualities by acknowledging his role in the history of science

Honorable Emmanuel Okocha Oral History Interview
No full textThis is an oral history interview with the Honorable Emmanuel Okocha, author of Blood on the Niger, the only book about the Asaba Massacre, a mass killing of civilians which occurred in 1967 during the Nigerian Civil War. Okocha, a survivor of the massacre, was a small child at the time; his father was killed at Asaba, and two older brothers also died during the war. Okocha began researching the massacre after finishing his university studies, and has interviewed hundreds of survivors and relatives of those who were killed. He describes some of his research, the publication of his book, and his efforts to document the massacre

Los "judíos progresistas" en Argentina: posicionamientos, debates y tensiones en torno a la Guerra de los Seis Días (1967)
No full textEl presente trabajo problematizará los posicionamientos de una institución autoproclamada como representativa de los “judíos-progresistas” en Argentina —el Idisher Cultur Farband (ICUF)— como consecuencia de la Guerra de los Seis Días (1967). Si bien aquel episodio bélico no fue el prime- ro ni necesariamente el más relevante del conflicto que tiene como epicentro el territorio de Palestina/Israel, resquebrajó ciertos sentidos, solidaridades y representaciones que diversos actores sostuvieron en torno a la existencia y legitimidad del Estado de Israel (Lenderhendler, 2000).Fil: Kahan, Emmanuel Nicolas.
