Historical Dictionary of Pakistan

ISBN:

Pages : 472
Book Description
Pakistan is unlike most other countries in the emerging world. It is one of the two nations – the other being the state of Israel – founded on the basis of religion. Although it was created to provide a homeland for the Muslim community of British India, in its original form it was able to accommodate only about half of the people of Islamic faith who lived in the subcontinent. Pakistan’s birth in 1947 resulted in one of the largest movements of people in human history when some 14 million people left their homes, with 8 million Muslims leaving India for what is now Pakistan and 6 million Hindus and Sikhs moving in the opposite direction. This was the first large-scale incidence of ethnic cleansing the world was to witness. --

The Fifteen Joys of Marriage
Author: Brent A. Pitts
Publisher: Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers
ISBN:
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
The Fifteen Joys of Marriage is a new translation of the .XV. Joies de Mariage, the ironic, enigmatic, and ostensibly misogynistic tract written ca. 1400. Like many Old French fabliaux, the Fifteen Joys takes for its subject the reversals, the woes, and the deceptions of the married state. By contrast with the fableors, however, the anonymous author of the Fifteen Joys arranges his domestic scenes in series, thus parodying a well known devotional work while incanting his litany of despair. The present work revives in medieval context a classic long out of print in English translation. For the text the translator adopts the burgeoning, colloquial manner of the original French, providing commentary in his Notes. The Introduction discusses the structure and principal themes of the Joys while surveying recent studies of the text. The Bibliography marks a starting point for further study.
