<p>Some of the thinkers who emerged in the history of thought of Muslims complained of the low response of the Qur’an toward empirical reality and the needs ofcommunity. They were sure that it was because of the tradition of study of the Qur’an that Muslims developed until now is less dialogical approach in addressing the reality, and that the interpretation of studies so far is more dominated by the patterns offiqh, kalam, and mysticism, and only a little to do with the pattern of education. Yet the Qur’an actually views human as the object of education in a long process with the ultimate objective of happiness of the world and the hereafter. This process involves human in an intensive dialogue and it takes time. This paper offers a selection of verses of the Qur’an and then analyses it with a historical approach that the results will be the philosophical basis andfundamental principles of human education efforts to achieve perfect being. This paper concludes that the gradual way of revelation of the Qur’an shows that this holy book presents as a “book of education” that accompanies everyday life of man. Thus the study of the meaning of the verses of the Qur’an with a multidisciplinary approach is a must as a form of attempt to optimize the intake of ”divine nutrition” to human health in living his life.</p>

This chapter reflects on the poetry of the palate, which it says is part of our palette of personal and cultural expressions. Tasting your favorite dish and hearing your favorite poem both have aesthetic qualities that make part of the poetry of everyday life. A language of tastes from immigrants' home countries is a marketable currency—and it adds not only flavors but also delicious words to our English vocabulary. Two books by Mark Kurlansky, Cod: A Biography of the Fish That Changed the World and Salt: A World History, make the case that the entire history of the world can be told through a single food. Foodways can provide a lens through which to explore geography and cultural history. In New York, world history, immigrant history, and shifting demographics create an ever-changing range of eateries and restaurants offering a panoply of tastes, often concocting new flavors by mixing ingredients.

Monasticism is a social and religious phenomenon that originated in antiquity, which remains relevant in the 21st century. Monasticism: A Very Short Introduction discusses the history of monasticism from the earliest evidence for it, and the different types that have developed. It considers where monasteries are located around the world, and how their settings impact the everyday life and worldview of the monks and nuns who dwell in them. Exploring how monastic communities are organized, this VSI also looks at how all aspects of life are regimented. Finally, it discusses what the stories about saints communicate about monastic identity and ethics, and considers what place there is for monasticism in the modern world.

This paper focuses upon the importance and value of local Indigenous Knowledge and how it is being threatened in today’s modern world rather than being leveraged to catalyze development. The author specifically calls out three types of Indigenous Knowledge: (1) medicinal knowledge related to human health, i.e., herbal medicine; (2) sacred groves – geographic areas set aside to preserve plants and animals and that can help to mitigate the impact of climate change; and (3) living libraries – communities of people who are also holders of cultural wisdom and history and who are custodians of all knowledge relating to the history of their own community. The author makes a call to action, requesting that scientists, librarians, publishers, and others in the information community collaborate and move forward together to save and build upon global Indigenous Knowledge.

Since the 1992 Rio de Janeiro UNO Congress domestic animals belong also officially to the genetic diversity of the world. Non commercial domestic animal breeds should be maintained for many cultural and technical reasons. Conservation and preservation of living beings is nowadays in the programme of many regional, national and international organizations.The preservation of domestic animals is possible in situ (at the original place and conditions) and ex situ (by cryogenic methods).There are three era in the history of preservation of domestic animals: the epoch of spontaneous maintenance, the period of sporadic national activities and the era of international programme.Some of the questions to be solved by scientific research: the principles of selection of the candidate populations for maintenance, the different degrees of endangeredness, the necessary population size to be subsidized, the problem of inbreeding, the best mating systems etc.In Hungary the maintenance of endangered domestic animal breeds is based upon the low.The following breeds are on the list of protected breeds:− the Hungarian Grey cattle,− the Lipizzan, Shagya, Nonius, Gidran, Furioso,Kisbér Halfbred, Murinsulaner and Hucul horses,− the Racka, Tsigai and Cikta sheep,− the Mangalitsa pig,− the Hungarian yellow, white, speckled and the Transsylvanian naked necked hen,− the Bronze Turkey,− the Frizzle Feathered goose.Hopefully in the near future the breeders of traditional domestic animal breeds will find the possible niches for their special products.

O setor Petrolífero é um dos maiores e mais amplos empreendedores do mundo. E vem crescendo a cada ano, com novas tecnologias e novas perspectivas de inovação. Esta pesquisa envolve os seguintes objetivos: apresentar um breve histórico da origem do petróleo e seu desenvolvimento com o passar dos anos; apresentar uma análise do segmento petrolífero, indicando quais são os principais países que detém as maiores reservas e as maiores empresas petrolíferas do mundo; e, uma análise de patentes onde apresenta-se o número anual de documentos de patentes na respectiva área em um determinado período, as áreas de foco tecnológico e as empresas que mais depositam documentos de patentes neste setor no Brasil. O método de pesquisa constituiu na seleção de artigos para que se tornasse possível à contextualização da história do petróleo e também na seleção de dados estatísticos que indicassem sua evolução através de tabelas e gráficos que comprovasse a produção e o desenvolvimento no decorrer dos anos. Uma analise na base de dados da Derwent Innovation Index julgou-se necessária e importante na utilização de documentos de patentes como uma fonte de informação, pois registram os avanços tecnológicos. Com o estabelecimento de uma estratégia de busca no período de 1994-2013 foi possível destacar a Procter & Gamble, empresa americana, como sendo a empresa que mais deposita documentos de patentes dentro desta área no Brasil. Ainda apresenta o cenário petrolífero e os avanços tecnológicos nos últimos anos. Quanto às descobertas de reservas petrolíferas recentes tanto no Brasil quanto em outros países a tendência é de que esta área se fortaleça implementando suas tecnologias e aumentando suas reservas produtivas e se destacando cada vez mais no cenário mundial.AbstractThe Petroleum sector is one of the largest and most comprehensive in the world market.

The war in Syria has led to a large number of Syrian families fleeing to neighboring countries, including Lebanon. Per capita, Lebanon has taken in more refugees than any other country in the world. Despite a shared history of taking in each other’s war-affected populations, the Government of Lebanon response has shifted from that of hospitality and protection to refusing to officially recognize displaced Syrians as refugees and imposing other restrictive policies that make everyday life a challenge for Syrian families. These actions have an impact upon the basic human rights of these families. Drawing upon data from research with 46 Syrian families, this paper will describe how Syrian family movement is restricted, identify the multiple and interrelated factors that contribute to immobility, explore how restricted mobility can compromised children, family, and human rights.

The three books under review offer the opportunity to consider attempts to write the history of the wider world from the Renaissance to the present day. Although they are vastly different in focus: from a selection of travel narratives and histories; volumes from a multi-authored reference work to the study of a single street; what they all have in common is their comparative methodology and their extended engagement with non-European cultures. The review endorses Christopher Bayly’s contention that we are all global historians now, only some of us don’t know it. To misquote Benedetto Croce: ‘all history is contemporary (but also comparative) history’.

Abstract Common salt, or sodium chloride, has always been a strategic resource of primary importance throughout the world. In pre-Hispanic Mesoamerica, salt was used primarily for human consumption, as the native diet had little chloride or sodium, two chemical components that are indispensable for human health and nutrition. Here I discuss the traditional salt industries of Michoacán, Colima, Guerrero, the Basin of Mexico and Puebla, paying special attention to the production sites and the tool assemblages linked to salt production in these areas of Mesoamerica. This article sheds light on salt's role in the culture and history of the ancient Mesoamerican ecumene through the lens of ethnoarchaeology and ethnohistory.

The text runs through the collective Bevilacqua La Masa of 1919, analysing the organisational aspects, the use of spaces and the critical choices made by Barbantini and the jury in the selection of participations. The exhibition itinerary presents a varied range of research; it develops between the ground floor and the mezzanine of Palazzo Pesaro, whose rooms are restored following the measures adopted during the war. Taking place in a historic moment of transition, the edition marks the resumption of the exhibition activity of the Opera, interrupted due to the polemics of 1913 and suspended in the years of the world war. According to the wide participation, the volume of sales and the number of visitors, the 1919 exhibition has a particular importance in the history of the institution and it is considered an ideal closure of the first Capesarina season.
