Book Description
Born in the Netherlands, Theresa moved with her family to Canada where her parents were closely connected with the Dutch community in Vancouver, British Columbia. The community, and Theresa's mother, Mrs. VandeWint, often hosted receptions for such notable visitors as Princess Juliana of the Netherlands. Theresa was educated in Canada, and studied Business Administration, which prompted her to sign a two-year contrast as Administrative Assistant to the Dutch East Indies Government in 1943. At that time, the Government was in exile in Australia. After WW II, the Dutch East Indies Government returned to Java, which was soon taken over by the Indonesians after three-hundred years of Dutch occupation. In Jakarta, she met the man who eventually became her husband, a Foreign Seruce Officer at the American Consulate General, and were married a year later---a marriage that has lasted sixty-five years. Theresa has lived in six countries, and traveled to all five continents except South America. She became conversant with many cultures, and made friends the world over, and she's not done living yet.

Reaching Ninety
Author: Martin Duberman
Publisher: Chicago Review Press
ISBN: 164160882X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 329
Book Description
Martin Duberman, one of the LGBTQ+ community's maverick thinkers and historians, looks back on ninety years of life, his history in the movement, and what he's learned. In the early Sixties, Martin Duberman published a path-breaking article defending the Abolitionists against the then-standard view of them as "misguided fanatics." In 1964, his documentary play, In White America, which reread the history of racist oppression in this country, toured the country—most notably during Freedom Summer—and became an international hit. Duberman then took on the profession of history for failing to admit the inherent subjectivity of all re-creations of the past. He radically democratized his own seminars at Princeton, for which he was excoriated by powerful professors in his own department, leading him to renounce his tenured full professorship and to join the faculty of the CUNY Graduate School. At CUNY, too, he was initially blocked from offering a pioneering set of seminars on the history of gender and sexuality, but after a fifteen-year struggle succeeded in establishing the Center for Gay and Lesbian Studies—which became a beacon for emerging scholars in that new field. By the early Seventies, Duberman had broadened his struggle against injustice by becoming active in protesting the war in Vietnam and in playing a central role in forming the National Lesbian and Gay Task Force and Queers for Economic Justice. Down to the present-day he continues through his writing to champion those working for a more equitable society.

Encyclopedia of Sahih Al-Bukhari
Author: Abu-`Abdullah Muhammad-Bin-Isma`il Al-Bukhari
Publisher: Arabic Virtual Translation Center
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 3452
Book Description
Since the invention of pen and paper, four books have been studied and analyzed more than all others: the Torah, the Gospel, the Qur'an, and Sahih Al-Bukhari. While there have been numerous translations of the first three, there has never been a complete translation of Sahih Al-Bukhari—due to its immense size and utter complexity—until now. After more than ten years of continuous research and translation by multiple layers of linguists, the Arabic Virtual Translation Center is pleased to announce the publication of the first-ever complete English translation of Sahih Al-Bukhari with full sanad and commentary. This is a full and accurate translation of Sahih Al-Bukhari from cover to cover with the addition of explanatory notes, a glossary of every term, and biographies of all characters. Sahih Al-Bukhari is the biggest collection of authentic hadiths. It lays the foundation of Islam and encompasses all the sharia laws. It details the building blocks of the religion and those who constructed them from the Prophet to the Sahabah to the Tabi`un and everyone who influenced them. It is a well-organized labyrinth of Islamic history that describes every precept and explains it thoroughly. Virtually all books about Islam, from those taught in kindergarten to the ones lectured at Azhar University, are interpretations of Sahih Al-Bukhari. Now, with this encyclopedia in hand, we have the opportunity not to rely solely on the works of shady characters, revisionists, or those with ulterior motives. We can retrieve information from its original source in raw format, connect all the dots, and draw our own conclusions. The entire encyclopedia is in full color and is easy to read and understand. It is recommended that it be viewed on a color monitor to easily distinguish between the different features. It is highly advised to peruse the extensive introduction to hadith by the translators before studying Sahih Al-Bukhari. This digital version has links to every entry and similar hadiths to facilitate the comprehension of each story in full. The encyclopedia is under constant review and is continuously revised and updated. Each update is assigned a distinct version number. It is only once in a generation that a must-read encyclopedia of this magnitude comes to life, and all of us can benefit from it. Benefit from it in this life and the life to come.
