Introduction
No full textUses of Blogs brings together scholars and practitioners from a wide range of fields to offer a broad spectrum of perspectives on current and emerging uses of blogs. Blogging is rapidly developing into a mainstream activity for Internet users, but beyond the popular headlines, there has been very little serious research done on their actual application in specific, everyday contexts. One reason for this is that the variety of styles of blogging - news blogs and political commentary blogs, marketing blogs, corporate dark blogs, fictional blogs, educational blogs, to name just a few - make it difficult to generalize and to imagine how blogs might be used in particular environments. This pathbreaking new book demonstrates the application of blogs and blogging in the full range of industrial and social contexts

Le scenografe di Peter Brook: Sally Jacobs
No full textIl nome di Sally Jacobs (1932-2020)[1] è legato a l regista inglese Peter Brook, protagonista della stagione di ricerca degli anni Sessanta e Settanta e considerato il più grande regista della scena teatrale del Novecento; la Jacobs lavora tra gli altri, alla realizzazione del Marat-Sade (1964) e A Midsummer Night’s Dream (1970), ultima regia brookianaper la Royal Shakespeare Company a Stratford-upon-Avon; entrambi spettacoli iconici e centrali nella produzione brookiana perché nati nel contesto degli anni di un impegno politico collettivo e nel momento della più intensa sperimentazione di Brook, quando cioè, sperimentò il concetto artaudiano di “crudeltà” e quello di “spazio vuoto” da lui elaborato nel 1968
Moral Good, the Beatific Vision, and God’s Kingdom Writings by Germain Grisez and Peter Ryan, S.J.. Edited by Peter J. Weigel
No full textFor close to half a century, the work of Germain Grisez has been highly influential, and his writings continue to receive considerable attention from philosophers and theologians of diverse viewpoints. His co-author for this work is the professor and noted moral theologian Fr. Peter Ryan, S.J., currently the executive director of the Secretariat of Doctrine and Canonical Affairs of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). These two eminent scholars explore fundamental questions about Christian eschatology, moral theory, the purpose of human life, and the promise of human fulfilment. The authors examine Christian teaching on the final destiny of persons, investigating the meaning of God's kingdom, the hope of the beatific vision, and the centrality of moral goodness and divine grace in one's final end. This work is an ideal source for students, scholars, ministers and lay persons interested in basic questions of Christian theology, the philosophy of religion, ethical theory, and Catholic doctrin

Ta Sts’its’áp’s ta Sḵwx̱wu7mesh Snichim Sḵexwts "The Squamish Language Dictionary Project
No full textWe discuss Ta Sts’its’áp’s ta Sḵwx̱wu7mesh Snichim Sḵexwts "The Squamish Language Dictionary Project (SLDP). This is a community lead project that includes a published dictionary and now an e-dictionary project. Our print dictionary (Author 2011), was developed by a team lead by Nation members. The SLDP includes first language speakers (S1 speakers who are all elders) and second language learners (S2 speakers who are language teachers), a community linguist (also an S2 speaker) and other contracted experts. The dictionary is targeted to students of the language, both adults and children. We now have some informal observations about the role the dictionary has in our language revitalization efforts. We discuss the strengths and limitations that a written dictionary has, e.g., increased language status within (and outside of) the community, more independent language learning, difficulties in imparting complex grammatical information, misleading English translation. The second part of our project is our e-dictionary - Ta wa nichim Sḵwexwts "The Talking Dictionary". The Sḵwx̱wu7mesh Nation has less than 10 first language speakers. The language has been taught for 40 years in the local public schools and now in our own Nation run school (K-1). There are hundreds of second language learners, most from beginner to intermediate levels. A challenge for them is to hear spoken Sḵwx̱wu7mesh with any regularity. It is not feasible for all learners to spend time with our small group of elders. The e-dictionary then in part will serve to expand the voices of our S1 speakers. The entries in this e-dictionary include entries with sample sentences collected by the language teachers from existing curriculum and from other written sources. Sentences are chosen to represent a wide range of sentence types to assist learners to develop more complex ways of speaking. The audio includes voices of the elder speakers, and various S2 speakers (language teachers, adult learners and youth). Our primary purpose here is to provide a range of voices for learners to hear, both S1 speakers and S2 speakers. We are providing a range of S2 speaker since these are the voices that most learners are likely to hear. This phase of the e-dictionary project includes the most common words in the language. We plan to expand on this in the next phase to expand learners' vocabulary. References Author. (2011). Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Sníchim - Xwelíten Sníchim Sḵexwts = Squamish - English Dictionary.
