“I acknowledge the pain, suffering, trials, tribulations, and all that our ancestors endured for the family. It is my prayer that readers find enlightenment in these pages and attain greater pride in family, community, culture, and heritage. Also, I hope they will celebrate the rich contributions of our ancestors to the world. Each time they reflect on these proverbs, I pray they will garner courage and strength to overcome the difficulties of the past, present, and future. Finally, I trust the wisdom and knowledge passed down from our ancestors will be shared with our descendants for ages to come.” (Jack L. Bynum)

In Proverbs and the African Tree of Life Dorothy BEA Akoto-Abutiate juxtaposes chosen sayings from Proverbs and selected Ewe Folk proverbs using the agricultural metaphor of “grafting,” which she calls a “hermeneutic of grafting.” Though these two sets of sayings come from completely different cultural contexts, Akoto argues that folk sayings/proverbs, which abound in Africa, should be considered as an already mature, established tree on to which a piece of the biblical tree is spliced or engrafted to produce hybridized fruits that have uniquely different tastes than the fruits of each tree individually. This metaphorical grafting process allows the message of the Bible (in Proverbs) to be understood, imbibed and appropriated in Africa.

With more than one hundred-fifty books and three hundred published articles on proverb studies that have attracted wide attention of folklorists around the world, it is little wonder that international scholars look upon Wolfgang Mieder as the modern-day Pied Piper of paremiology. For this festschrift, some of the world's leading proverb and folklore scholars have come together to commemorate Mieder's sixty-fifth birthday. Authors from Russia, Eastern and Western Europe, Israel, and the United States have contributed essays representative of the scope and breadth of Mieder's own impressive scholarship. The Proverbial «Pied Piper» honors Wolfgang Mieder's legendary contributions to the study of proverbs and contains new scholarship by some of the best paremiologists in the world.

Proverbs is a poetic book full of images and metaphors, many of which are often obscure and enigmatic. In this volume, Rotasperti offers a contribution to the understanding of figurative language in Proverbs by looking at the grammatical and social contexts in which many of the book’s metaphors appear. The brief introduction explains the process and methodological assumptions used for identifying metaphors. The study then continues with a lexical review of four semantic categories: the body, urban fabric, nature and animals. The result of this survey is a deep analysis of several key metaphors that looks at their composition, structure, and interpretation.

Debating Contemporary Approaches to the History of Science explores the main themes, problems and challenges currently at the top of the discipline's methodological agenda. In its chapters, established and emerging scholars introduce and discuss new approaches to the history of science and revisit older perspectives which remain crucial. Each chapter is followed by a critical commentary from another scholar in the field and the author's response. The volume looks at such topics as the importance of the 'global', 'digital', 'environmental', and 'posthumanist' turns for the history of science, and the possibilities for the field of moving beyond a focus on ideas and texts towards active engagement with materials and practices. It also addresses important issues about the relationship between history of science, on the one hand, and philosophy of science, history of knowledge and ignorance studies, on the other. With its innovative format, this volume provides an up-to-date, authoritative overview of the field, and also explores how and why the history of science is practiced. It is essential reading for students and scholars eager to keep a finger on the pulse of what is happening in the history of science today, and to contribute to where it might go next.

Today's industrialized nations are still limping toward recovery in the aftermath of the Great Recession in 2007, and the world is watching the many resulting social revolutions. History has seen this before; in fact, titanic revolutions have been cyclical responses to the horrific financial conditions borne out of the industrial era's market crashes. The French Revolution and World War II are two indelible examples of violent impacts incited by large economies suddenly taking a nosedive. History meets macroeconomics as this book lays out how technology has been the main driver of societal change for all of human history. This book then outlines the four waves of technological innovation that have powered the industrial era and traces the seismic shifts in culture, society, and worldview that brought about the world as we know it today.

Have a lifestyle and not just a moment! The good things about you, earth, and your loved ones, should not be mired in obscurity and ambiguity, because of the ignorance of yourself or someone else. I know what it’s like to be led by nebulous people off a proverbial cliff, towards a bad habit, or worse. You can be the you, you actually want to be. You can live uninfluenced by people who could care less if whether or not you have a roof over your head or a pillow to lay it on. Freedom is for you. Every human has a need to become self-actualized. Self-actualization is the realization of your potential and abilities. You may not be where you want to be in life because someone planted a bad seed in your mind and told you that you couldn’t achieve your dreams or desires. Desires are eternal. Eternity in this context refers to the divine or cosmic. Your wants don’t die, you just may have given up on them. And you giving up on your desires isn’t necessarily all your fault. I want to help you break out of the shame of living in a way that is inauthentic. Live well but more than that, live period. When you are empowered to generate health and purpose that is what will materialize in your life. Allow yourself to be empowered. Think better, do better, believe better, be better. Some of the nouns in your life are literally either demons or the devil himself. Nefarious forces don’t want you to have a revelation. They want you to be a loser like them. That’s why certain nouns knock you down or undermine you whenever you [try to] accomplish something great with yourself. They don’t want to see you win. They don’t want you to win because they know you can win, and that type of winning will never happen for them in a validating way. The good in you and in your life is more bountiful than the bad, but certain nouns may be amplifying the bad in your life and making it worse. Get your mind right. You only receive what you believe you are worthy of receiving. Believe you are worthy of receiving joy, happiness, promotions, support, love, care, meaning, and purpose. Get and stay around positivity and affirm the good in your life. Go against the people, places, and things that don’t want you to live. Learn how to have and proliferate a meaningful life for yourself.
