Egyptology: The Missing Millennium
Author: Okasha El Daly
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1315429764
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 259
Book Description
Egyptology: The Missing Millennium brings together for the first time the disciplines of Egyptology and Islamic Studies, seeking to overturn the conventional opinion of Western scholars that Moslims/Arabs had no interest in pre-Islamic cultures. This book examines a neglected period of a thousand years in the history of Egyptology, from the Moslem annexation of Egypt in the seventh century CE until the Ottoman conquest in the 16th century. Concentrating on Moslem writers, as it is usually Islam which incurs blame for cutting Egyptians off from their ancient heritage, the author shows not only the existence of a large body of Arabic sources on Ancient Egypt, but also their usefulness to Egyptology today. Using sources as diverse as the accounts of travelers and treasure hunters to books on alchemy, the author shows that the interest in ancient Egyptian scripts continued beyond classical writers, and describes attempts by medieval Arab scholars, mainly alchemists, to decipher the hieroglyph script. He further explores medieval Arab interest in Ancient Egypt, discussing the interpretations of the intact temples, as well as the Arab concept of Egyptian kingship and state administration—including a case study of Queen Cleopatra that shows how the Arabic romance of this queen differs significantly from Western views. This book will be of great interest to academics and students of archaeology, Islamic studies and Egyptology, as well as anyone with a general interest in Egyptian history.

Monolingual Policy, Bilingual Interaction
Author: Rizwan-ul Huq
Publisher: Linköping University Electronic Press
ISBN: 9179297218

Languages : bn
Pages : 142
Book Description
The research reported here is an investigation of bilingual instruction in Bangladeshi schools. In particular, the thesis explores how schooling takes place when a second language is used as a medium of instruction to teach subject content. The study is based on a corpus of 44 hours of video recordings from real-life classroom interaction at two Bangladeshi schools in two metropolitan cities. The age range of the students is 9 to 13 years. Using multimodal conversation analysis, the thesis analyzes the participants’ practice – as it emerges through mundane classroom activities – and thereby examines participants’ language use in the presence of an existing language policy. The findings show how everyday instructional activities are accomplished in classrooms, especially the pedagogical focus on clarifying subject content and vocabulary. It further highlights that the interrelation between classroom interaction and language policy is informed by the participants’ use of embodied resources and the surrounding material ecology. The dissertation contributes to the growing literature on social interaction in bilingual classrooms and the wider field of bilingual and multilingual pedagogy. Den här avhandlingen undersöker tvåspråkig undervisning i skolor i Bangladesh, med särskilt fokus på hur ett andraspråk, engelska, används för att undervisa ämnesinnehållet. Studien är baserad på videoinspelningar av klassrumsinteraktioner i två skolor i Bangladesh belägna i två storstäder. Åldern på de deltagande eleverna är 9 till 13 år, och den totala inspelningstiden är 44 timmar. I avhandlingen analyseras deltagarnas – både lärares och elevers – pedagogiska interaktion in situ, det vill säga så som de uttrycks i de faktiska klassrumssituationerna. Med hjälp av multimodal konversationsanalys undersöks vilka strategier deltagarna använder för att utföra klassrumsarbete mot bakgrund av skolans språkpolicy om att enbart kommunicera på engelska. Resultatet visar hur den faktiska undervisningen går till i klassrummen, och särskilt det pedagogiska fokuset på att förtydliga ämnesinnehållet och utöka ordförrådet. Avhandlingen bidrar till forskningen om social interaktion i tvåspråkiga klassrum och till den växande kunskapen om två- och flerspråkig pedagogik. বর্তমান গবেষণাপত্রটির উদ্দেশ্য বাংলাদেশী ইংরেজী-ভাষী স্কুলের বিষয়ভিত্তিক শ্রেনীকক্ষে (যেমন: গণিত, বিজ্ঞান, তথ্য ও প্রযুক্তি, কৃষি ইত্যাদি) পড়াশোনার কাজে কিভাবে পাঠদানকালীন সময়ে বাংলা ও ইংরেজীকে যুগপৎ ব্যবহার করা হয় তার সবিস্তার অনুসন্ধান। বাংলাদেশে অবস্থিত দুটি স্কুলের শ্রেণীকক্ষের দৈনন্দিন শিক্ষা কার্যক্রমের ক্যামেরায় ধারণকৃত উপাত্ত (সর্বমোট ৪৪ ঘন্টার) মাল্টিমোডাল কনভারসেশন এনালিসিস বা কথোপকথন বিশ্লেষণের মাধ্যমে এই সমীক্ষা পর্যবেক্ষণ করে যে, অংশগ্রহণকারী শিক্ষক এবং শিক্ষার্থীরা উভয়ই পাঠদানকালীন সময়ে কিভাবে প্রাতিষ্ঠানিক ইংরেজী এক ভাষা নীতি ব্যবহারের নিয়ম মেনে চলে। শিক্ষার্থীদের গড় বয়স ৯ থেকে ১৩। গবেষণাটির ফলাফল নির্দেশ করে যে, আপাত বিরোধী হলেও ইংরেজী এক ভাষা নীতির পরিবর্তে বাংলা ও ইংরেজীর যুগপৎ ব্যবহার শুধুমাত্র বিষয়ভিত্তিক জ্ঞান বৃদ্ধিই করে না বরং ইংরেজী সংক্রান্ত জ্ঞান (যেমন: শব্দভান্ডার, শব্দের গভীর অর্থ উপলব্ধি ইত্যাদি) বৃদ্ধিতে সুনির্দিষ্ট ইতিবাচক ভূমিকা রাখে। গবেষণার প্রাপ্ত ফলাফল থেকে আরো দেখা যায় যে, শিক্ষক ও ছাত্রছাত্রীরা নানাবিধ ধ্বনি-উত্তর (নন-ভার্বাল), কণ্ঠ-উত্তর (নন-ভোকাল) এবং শ্রেণীকক্ষের পারিপার্শ্বিক সংস্থানকে (ম্যাটেরিয়াল ইকোলজি) শিক্ষাসংক্রান্ত কর্মকান্ডে পদ্ধতিগতভাবে ব্যবহার করে এবংপাঠদানকালীন সময়ে বাংলা ও ইংরেজীর যুগপৎ ব্যবহারে নানাবিধ ভাষাগত ও ভাষা-উত্তর সংস্থান (রিসোর্স) বিস্তৃত ভূমিকা রাখে। দ্বি-ভাষা অথবা বহু-ভাষা সংক্রান্ত গবেষণায় আগ্রহী পাঠকের জন্য সমীক্ষাটি লিখিত।

Book Description
Der erste Teil bietet eine kritische Gesamtschau unseres Wissens und zugleich eine EinfÃ"hrung in das Studium der altassyrischen Epoche (die ersten beiden Jahrhunderte des 2. Jahrtausends), wie wir sie durch Entdeckungen in Assur und die Keilschriftarchive der altassyrischen Händler kennen, die in der Handelskolonie (genannt karum) in der Unterstadt des alten Kanesh (moderne KÃ"ltepe) in Zentralanatolien lebten. Die ersten Kapitel bestimmen, was "altassyrisch" ist und analysieren die Chronologie und die verfÃ"gbaren archäologischen und schriftlichen Quellen. Darauf folgt eine kritische Darstellung der Veröffentlichungen zu den altassyrischen Quellen. Nach einem Abriss der Altassyrischen Geschichte folgt ein Ãberblick zur "anatolischen Situation", der die Städte, lokale Herrscher und die rund vierzig altassyrischen Handelsniederlassungen in Nordmesopotamien und Anatolien behandelt. Ein eigenes Kapitel ist den wichtigen altassyrischen Handelsverträgen gewidmet. Der zweite Teil fasst die jÃ"ngsten Erkenntnisse zur Geschichte Nordsyriens zeitgleich mit der späten Phase des altassyrischen Handels zusammen. Der ausfÃ"hrlichen Untersuchung der Quellen ist ein Appendix der wichtigsten Texte beigefÃ"gt. Das Buch ist durch umfassende Indices erschlossen und enthält eine ausfÃ"hrliche Bibliographie.
