...as one of the greatest Saints of the Catholic Church. St. Joan was born at Domremy which is located in Champagne on January 6th, 1412, “St. Joan was born at Domremy in Champagne, probably on January 6th, 1412” (Hahn, 208). When she was at the age of 13 she began having visions from St. Michael the Archangel, St. Margaret, and St. Catherine of Alexandria, “At the age of 13, she began to hear voices and had a vision of light in which St. Michael the Archangel, St. Margaret, and St. Catherine of Alexandria appeared to her. These guiding councilors elected her a liberator of France and, in particular, the city of Orleans. St. Joan was instructed by the saints to inform Charles VII that she would make possible his coronation” (Hahn, 208). After having her visions, St. Joan of Arc went right to work, “With the crowning of King Charles VII, St. Joan’s principal aim was complete, and after a failed attack on Paris, she did not lead any assaults until the following year. During the winter, Charles and his advisors grew increasingly apathetic to her mission. The following May, St. Joan led a small army of five hundred soldiers against a far stronger force. During the attack she was captured by the English. St. Joan was burned at the stake on May 30th, 1431” (Hahn, 208). A lot of people give St. Joan of Arc a lot of fascination. Mainly because she was a girl. She was only thirteen years old when St. Michael the Archangel, St. Margaret, and St. Catherine of Alexandria appeared to her to make...

...portable reincarnation (Berlo 1990:133). This is also a period of cultural upheaval, in which Native Americans begin to be forcibly removed from their ancestral lands and relocated onto reservations. Therefore, ledger art from this timeframe is important to scholars because it relays the stories of the last generation of Plains Indians to exercise tribal independence (Low 2006:85). These early ledger books are known to depict warfare against rival tribes and the U.S. Army, as well as recounting daily camp activities, hunting, and horse stealing (Low 2006:86). In early 1875, another significant era of ledger drawings began when 72 Indians of the Kiowa, Cheyenne, Arapaho, Comanche, and Caddo tribes were sentenced to prison at Fort Marion in Saint Augustine, Florida (Woodhead 1994:113). The prison warden, Captain Richard Pratt, gave the warriors ledger books and colored pencils and encouraged them to make drawings, which they were allowed to sell for profit (Berlo 1990:135). Many of the drawings portrayed the Natives’ lives on the Plains prior to incarceration, as well as their experiences at Fort Marion (Woodhead 1994:113). Cheyenne and Arapaho Army scouts also produced numerous ledger drawings illustrating their exploits with the U.S. Army between the late 1870s and 1890s. Reservation-era drawings became common in 1890, and continued through the 1930s. Cheyenne priests initiated another notable phase when they began recording Sun Dance ceremonies with ledger art in 1937 (Low 2006:86-87)...

...Jamaicáról Jamaica egy a Karib-térségben elhelyezkedő, a Nagy-Antillák szigetcsoporthoz tartozó 234 km hosszú és 80 km széles szigetország. A Közép-Amerikai szárazföldtől 680 km-re és Kubától 145 km-re, délre, Hispanolia szigetétől pedig, ahol a Dominikai Köztársaság és Haiti található, 190 km-re, nyugatra fekszik a Karib-tengeren. Jamaica népessége igen sokszínű. Ebből a sokszínűségből adódik az ország mottójának jelentése: „Out of many, one people” – tehát a soknemzetiségű emberből álló népesség a szigeten, egy nemzetté vált. Jamaica zászlójának színei is jelentést hordoznak. A fekete szín szimbolizálja a jamaicaiak erejét és kreativitását, az sárga szín utal a napfényre és az ország gazdagságára, a zöld pedig a gazdagságra és a jövőre való reményt jeleníti meg. Az szigetet az őslakos, arawak és taíno indiánok nevezték Xaymaca-nak, amelynek jelentése „A Fák és Víz Földje”, valamint „A Források Szigete”. Az elnevezés a száznál is több patakra és folyóra utal, amelyek a sziget belsejében található hegyekből erednek, és a tengerbe futnak. Később a spanyol gyarmatosítás ideje alatt a Santiago nevet kapta az ország. Az ország hivatalos neve a Jamaica, nyelve, pedig az angol lett, miután a sziget angol fennhatóság alá került. Az ország lakossága igen kevert, de túlnyomó többségük az Afrikából, leginkább a spanyolok által elhurcolt rabszolgák leszármazottja, hiszen az eredeti őslakos indiánokat a felfedezők mind kiirtották. Jamaica az amerikai szubkontinens...

...Introduction Meister Eckhart (1260 - 1328) has been known as the father of German mysticism and the greatest of all mystics. Several authors reference him with the honour "the man from whom God hid nothing." He is known as a philosopher and a theologian but it was as a mystic that Meister Eckhart excelled. In his day Meister Eckhart enjoyed success as a popular preacher and churchman of high rank in his order, the Dominicans. However, Meister Eckhart was the only theologian of the medieval period to be formally charged with heresy. The shock of his trial for heresy and the condemnation of some of his work by Pope John XXII in Argo Dominco has cast a shadow over his reputation and a lingering suspicion over his orthodoxy that has lasted to this day. This research paper will focus on the intellectual and social history of Meister Eckhart. The development in thought of any theologian emerges from the life world of the theologian. [4] The life world is formed by the meeting of the cultural, social, and religious history of the day. Theologians are continually searching for new and meaningful ways to interpret religious experience. Meister Eckhart interpreted the religious experience of his day in a way that no others at the time did. I will explore in this paper some of the intellectual forces at work at the time and how he interpreted and connected with these. Secondly, it is important to understand the social history of the time. No theologians' thought is ever formed by simply...

...IGOROTS * Home * IGOROT SONGS * IGOROT DANCE * IGOROT TRADITIONS * MONEY ON THE MOUNTAIN IGOROT TRADITIONS IGOROT TRADITIONS When we talk about Igorot identity and culture, we also have to consider the time. My point is that: what I am going to share in this article concerning the Igorot culture might not be the same practiced by the Igorots of today. It has made variations by the passing of time, which is also normally happening to many other cultures, but the main core of respect and reverence to ancestors and to those who had just passed is still there. The Igorot culture that I like to share is about our practices and beliefs during the "time of Death". Death is part of the cycle of life. Igorots practice this part of life cycle with a great meaning and importance. Before the advent of Christianity in the Igorotlandia, the Igorots or the people of the Cordilleran region in the Philippines were animist or pagans. Our reverence or the importance of giving honor to our ancestors is a part of our daily activities. We consider our ancestors still to be with us, only that they exist in another world or dimension. Whenever we have some special feasts (e.g., occasions during death, wedding, family gathering, etc.), when we undertake something special (like going somewhere to look for a job or during thanksgiving), we perform some special offer. We call this "Menpalti/ Menkanyaw", an act of butchering and offering animals. During these times we call them...
