AbstractFor reasons of academic ambition, this poem was not compiled in Hohenloher-Fränkisch, Alemannisch, Badisch-Karlsruherisch, Westerwälder Platt or scientific English, but in High-German. This poem is contributed by Christof’s first academic family of the early 1980s. This work would not have been possible without the inspiring spices and brain calories of Jule’s delicious quiche that turned a long poetic session into a memorable scientific breakthrough event.

Abstract Carlos Castaneda has been studied mostly as a fraud anthropologist, novelist/philosopher and a contributor to the emerging phenomenon of neo-shamanism. Instead, this article focuses on Castaneda’s individual philosophy and religious system as developed in his written works. A threefold classification is proposed—early, transitional, and late works, complete with chief characteristics of each. The analysis shows how Castaneda slowly drifted from the scholarly style through stress on the narrative to full-fledged religious texts. These changes also reflect on Castaneda’s personal life; from academic ambition through public scandal ‘debunking’ his counterfeit works to the formation of a little new religious movement, of which Castaneda was a charismatic leader. Unlike most scholarly analyses of Castaneda that focus mainly on the early writings, this article takes into serious consideration his late works and shows that it was here that the author fully developed as a religious thinker and guru.

Kirkuk University students who are living in the dormitory are in need to things more than those who are living at home in the study and psychological dimensions. In general, Kirkuk University students have a good academic ambition level. Kirkuk University students who are living in the dormitory are more ambitious than those who are living at home.
