Satyajit Ray's The Chess Players and Postcolonial Film Theory

Satyajit Ray's The Chess Players and Postcolonial Film Theory

Reena Dube

Palgrave Macmillan
2005
sidottu
Indispensable for students of film studies, in this book Reena Dube explores Satyajit Ray's films, and The Chess Players in particular, in the context of discourses of labour in colonial and postcolonial conditions. Starting from Daniel Defoe and moving through history, short story and film to the present, Dube widens her analysis with comparisons in which Indian films are situated alongside Hollywood and other films, and interweaves historical and cultural debates within film theory. Her book treats film as part of the larger cultural production of India and provides a historical sense of the cross genre borrowings, traditions and debates that have deeply influenced Indian cinema and its viewers.

Big Ray's obesity and his mean temper define him, at least to his family. When Big Ray dies, his son Daniel puts his feelings aside, for a while. Years later, Daniel attempts to reckon with the enduring, outsized memory of his father.In this stunning novel a middle-aged man comes to terms with his father's death - and with his life. Told in five hundred brief entries, the complexity of this searing story moves back and forth between the past and the present, between an abusive childhood and an adult understanding. Shot through with humour and insight that will resonate with anyone who has a complicated parental relationship, Big Ray is a staggering family story - at once brutal and tender, unusual and unsettling.

A Ray of the Qur’an: Selected Essays of Sayyed Mahmoud Taleghani, Volume I

A Ray of the Qur’an: Selected Essays of Sayyed Mahmoud Taleghani, Volume I

PETER LANG PUBLISHING INC
2024
sidottu
The study and explanation of Surah Al-Fatihah and verses 1-143 of Surah Al-Baqara make up Volume I of A Ray of the Qur’an. Sayyed Mahmoud Taleghani follows the traditional ordinal presentation of these two chapters of the Qur’an. Appropriately, he begins his commentary with the first Surah: "The Opening.” He considers this Surah to be an invitation to people to recognize their creator and sustainer by knowing Allah’s attribute of mercy and as the giver of guidance to the straight path. Likewise, Taleghani invites people through another name given to this Surah, Al Hamd/The Praise, to praise their Lord exclusively. Taleghani’s approach to the Qur’an is holistic. This is evident in his reading of the initial five verses of Surah Al-Baqara as containing the foundational, pivotal notions that inform the grand ideas and the details of not only the rest of the Surah, but indeed the entire Qur’an. The word taqwa, used in Surah Al-Baqara and throughout the Qur’an, is sometimes translated as piety or fear of God but the full breadth of the term, as Taleghani shows, is better expressed in the phrase "to safeguard oneself with full awareness of divine laws." Those who show taqwa are made aware of the prophetic mission, and are assured of the hereafter if they accept and follow it in their thoughts and deeds. Thus, the reader is introduced in Surah Al-Baqara to Taleghani’s vision of the Qur’an, whereby, a ray from this book is said to touch the minds and hearts of those with taqwa and to launch them on their search for the truth. This is one way Taleghani distinguishes the Holy Qur’an from other books.

PETER LANG PUBLISHING INC

sidottu
The main theme of A Ray of the Qur’an is reflected in Sayyed Mahmoud Taleghani's unique and all-encompassing approach of using root definitions of key Qur’anic terms as the basis for his illumination of the Qur’an. Taleghani's method mirrors his thesis that drawing on the light of the Qur’an along with authentic prophetic tradition, sound theological argument, and a grasp of ethics, science, and human history reveals the observable interconnectedness in nature that exists on an individual and societal level and is constantly evolving as unified creation of one Creator. The relationship of humanity to the rest of creation as discussed in A Ray of the Qur’an elicits individual and societal human responsibility to know, care for, preserve, and promote both human society and all of nature in a just, fair, and morally balanced manner. Taleghani holds that the creator of the physical world and its human inhabitants lovingly and justly offers a blueprint and manual for action, and central to that is the Qur’an. Nonetheless, according to Taleghani’s own humble estimation, his work should not be described as an interpretation, explanation or explication but an effort to allow glimpses of divine guidance to shine on minds and hearts. A Ray of the Qur’an will shift the academic discourse around studies of Islam and the Qur’an, including within Islamic institutions. It offers a compelling and unique approach to theology, comparative religious studies, ethics, environmental studies, and Arabic studies.

X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometry (XRF) in Geoarchaeology

X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometry (XRF) in Geoarchaeology

Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
2010
sidottu
Since the 1960s, x-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF), both wavelength and energy-dispersive have served as the workhorse for non-destructive and destructive analyses of archaeological materials. Recently eclipsed by other instrumentation such as LA-ICP-MS, XRF remains the mainstay of non-destructive chemical analyses in archaeology, particularly for volcanic rocks, and most particularly for obsidian. In a world where heritage and repatriation issues drive archaeological method and theory, XRF remains an important tool for understanding the human past, and will remain so for decades to come.Currently, there is no comprehensive book in XRF applications in archaeology at a time when the applications of portable XRF and desktop XRF instrumentation are exploding particularly in anthropology and archaeology departments worldwide. The contributors to this volume are the experts in the field, and most are at the forefront of the newest applications of XRF to archaeological problems. It covers all relevant aspects of the field for those using the newest XRF technologies to deal with very current issues in archaeology.

X-Ray Computed Tomography in Biomedical Engineering

X-Ray Computed Tomography in Biomedical Engineering

Robert Cierniak

Springer London Ltd
2014
nidottu
Computed Tomography gives a detailed overview of various aspects of computed tomography. It discusses X-ray CT tomography from a historical point of view, the design and physical operating principles of computed tomography apparatus, the algorithms of image reconstruction and the quality assessment criteria of tomography scanners. Algorithms of image reconstruction from projections, a crucial problem in medical imaging, are considered in depth. The author gives descriptions of the reconstruction methods related to tomography scanners with a parallel X-ray beam, trough solutions with fan-shaped beam and successive modifications of spiral scanners. Computed Tomography contains a dedicated chapter for those readers who are interested in computer simulations based on studies of reconstruction algorithms. The information included in this chapter will enable readers to create a simulation environment in which virtual tomography projections can be obtained in all basic projection systems. This monograph is a valuable study on computed tomography that will be of interest to advanced students and researchers in the fields of biomedical engineering, medical electronics, computer science and medicine.
