Histoire Complete de Joseph
No full textThe Joseph story in Genesis was a subject of great interest to Syriac writers, and in this volume Bedjan presents the Syriac text (in vocalized East Syriac script) of a lengthy and highly praised poem on the subject, sometimes attributed to Ephrem, but more recently to the fifth-century author Balai. The poem consists of twelve homilies (memre) in the 7 + 7 meter, the subjects of which are: 1. On jealousy and the sale of Joseph, 2. Bringing his coat to his father, 3. Going down to Egypt and his sale to Potiphar, 4. His temptation, 5. His imprisonment, 6. His exaltation, 7. His brothers going down to Egypt, 8. Benjamin going down to Egypt, 9. Joseph revealing himself to his brothers, 10. News of Joseph reaching his father, 11. The death of Jacob, and 12. Joseph’s death. An appendix contains a poem on the translation of Joseph’s bones

Insurgent Testimonies
No full textDuring the second half of the nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth, insurgencies erupted in imperial states and colonies around the world, including Britain’s. As Nicole Rizzuto shows, the writings of Ukrainian-born Joseph Conrad, Anglo-Irish Rebecca West, Jamaicans H. G. de Lisser and V. S. Reid, and Kenyan Ng gi wa Thiong’o testify to contested events in colonial modernity in ways that question premises underlying approaches in trauma and memory studies and invite us to reassess divisions and classifications in literary studies that generate such categories as modernist, colonial, postcolonial, national, and world literatures. Departing from tenets of modernist studies and from methods in the field of trauma and memory studies, Rizzuto contends that acute as well as chronic disruptions to imperial and national power and the legal and extra-legal responses they inspired shape the formal practices of literatures from the modernist, colonial, and postcolonial periods.

Implementation of project-based learning in structural design and architectural modules to achieve improved graduate employability
No full textMany UK civil engineering and architectural programmes address industry's requirements for graduates that can identify and solve complex problems, understand ethical, environmental and the business aspects of Built Environment projects. Project-based learning (PBL) is a successful learning strategy for the development of graduate employability skills that has a considerable impact on work-readiness. PBL group projects lead to enhanced employability skills and provide ample scope for the development of original and innovative design solutions (Rizzuto, 2018; Rizzuto and Balodimou, 2019). Input from industry practitioners, in the form of guest lectures, site visits and work shadowing (Rizzuto and Chauhan, 2018) ensures that students get a tangible insight into the world of work. PBL covers holistic design projects which investigate authentic complex scenarios. Reflective of Industry practice, students are required to interpret a client’s design brief, establish preliminary outline designs, review, and critique these and finally produce a detailed design for one of their approved schemes. The briefs must be formulated to realise the full structural, architectural, economic, aesthetic and sustainability benefits (May, 2009). Students engage in group work which leads to subject-specific knowledge and helps develop inter-personal skills (HEA, 2103) as well as skills such as ‘critical thinking’, ‘problem solving’, ‘teamwork’ and 'communication' as these are among the graduate skills most valued by employers (Du et al 2009, UK-SPEC, 2013). Group interaction is based on gained experience from PBL activities encouraging creativity and good time management (Adams et.al., 2011, Choi and Kim, 2016; Royalty, 2017). Industry's changing expectations must be accounted for and embedded in the curriculum to develop graduate skills that are needed by industry. It was found that PBL in the form of realistic group projects supported by Industry motivates students, improves learning, and encourages engagement with work related activities which enhance and improve graduate employability
