A critical study of the Greek tragic vision in the context of other plays taken for the purpose manifests that the conceptualization of tragedy has followed three paradigmatic shifts. The Greeks believed in Divine universe higher than the mundane which impacted upon the latter for good and bad in response to its own moral order and its canons. For example, Sophocles' Oedipus is fated to commit parricide and incest even before his birth. Euripides' Medea takes help from the sun-god. Aegeus goes to Delphi to know the reason of his remaining issueless. Medea is a sorceress and invokes the supernatural powers to kill her foes. In other tragic visions like that of Shakespeare's, Neoclassical and Modern tragic vision, it's is hardly so. The application of various perspectives of Aristotle, Aurobindo, Jung, Joseph Campbell, George A. Kelly, Tony Wolfe etc. would help us unfurl the skein tragic tangles in the life we human beings.
Corporate Governance and Fraud Risk Management in India presents a thorough examination of corporate frauds in India focusing specifically on promoters, controlling share holders of companies and certain intermediaries. By examining the role of the macroeconomic environment that induces law-abiding citizens to indulge in violations of the law and by analysing the relationship between policy distortions and weak regulatory and enforcement mechanisms, this book emphasizes the need to shed the general atmosphere of cynicism in order to channel well-thought improvements that will strengthen and reinforce the laws and regulations governing corporate frauds in India. While this book will appeal to anyone interested in understanding the nature of corporate governance and fraud risk management in India, it will be especially useful to investigators, forensic auditors, prosecutors, lawyers and judges. Chapters one to ten detail the modus operandi of different kinds of corporate frauds. Chapters eleven and twelve will be useful for policy makers and economists interested in improving corporate governance in India. Bankers will find the analysis of different corporate frauds useful in refining their risk management strategies, specifically in relation to lending. Investors, chartered accountants and investigative journalists will also find this an interesting read.
Here laying more stress on modern tragic vision, it is generally democratized, but comparatively speaking this is more true of Arthur Miller than Eugene O'Neill's. O'Neill takes a much more perspicacious, psychological approach that renders the psyche bare and illustrates his view that science and its brainchild of materialism, offers no psychic balm or emotional solace to mankind. O'Neill's tragic vision thus doesn't man but, rather, lays bare the spiritual wasteland that he is in the contemporary materialist world. By contrast, Miller in Death of a Salesman attempts to affirm and reaffirm man within the confines of materialism - a concomitant of capitalism. Other canons of Aristotle, Sri Aurobindo, C.G. Jung, Joseph Campbell, George A. Kelly, Rollo May and Tony Wolfe have also been applied to make the critical study more effective and encompassing .
This book offer a plethora of environmentally benign alternatives to these chemical insecticides. It is hoped that the book will fill the wide gap in literature on utilization of biological and molecular approaches in biointensive IPM as an alternative to chemical insecticide based IPM for sustainable insect pest management in future.
This book presents research focused on the design of fractal antennas using bio-inspired computing techniques. The authors present designs for fractal antennas having desirable features like size reduction characteristics, enhanced gain, and improved bandwidths. The research is summarized in six chapters which highlight the important issues related to fractal antenna design and the mentioned computing techniques. Chapters demonstrate several applied concepts and techniques used in the process such as Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), Genetic Algorithms (GAs), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Bacterial Foraging Optimization (BFO). The work aims to provide cost-effective and efficient solutions to the demand for compact antennas due to the increasing demand for reduced sizes of components in modern wireless communication devices. A key feature of the book includes an extensive literature survey to understand the concept of fractal antennas, their features, and design approaches. Another key feature is the systematic approach to antenna design. The book explains how the IE3D software is used to simulate various fractal antennas, and how the results can be used to select a design. This is followed by ANN model development and testing for optimization, and an exploration of ANN ensemble models for the design of fractal antennas. The bio-inspired computing techniques based on GA, PSO, and BFO are developed to find the optimal design of the proposed fractal antennas for the desired applications. The performance comparison of the given computing techniques is also explained to demonstrate how to select the best algorithm for a given bio-inspired design. Finally, the book explains how to evaluate antenna designs. This book is a valuable resource for students (from UG to PG levels) and research scholars undertaking learning modules or projects on microstrip and patch antenna design in communications or electronics engineering courses.
The dominance of insects in the world fauna has made them the humanity's greatest rival for the world's food resources, both directly by eating the plants cultivated for food and indirectly as vectors of pathogens attacking these plants. Agricultural scientists and especially entomologists have strived hard to develop a diversity of cultural, mechanical, biological and chemical weapons during the last more than two centuries to gain dominance over insects. However, there is evidence that insect pest problems have escalated with an increasing cropping intensity and with the use of agrochemicals inherent in modern agriculture. Consequently, Indian plant protection scientists have intensified research on the development of pest management tactics and effective pest management systems have been designed for all the important crops in the country. This book, consisting of 29 chapters, draws together the diverse literature on the subject of insect pest management in agriculture and contains contributions written by scientists having extensive experience with insect pest problems in Indian agriculture. The first half of the book is devoted to the principles and components of pest management including factors affecting pest populations, construction of life tables, coevolution of insects and plants, pest forecasting, pesticides, IGRs, botanicals, entomopathogenic nematodes and molecular approaches, etc. The different tactics for the management of major insect pests of principal agricultural crops of India, viz. rice, maize, wheat, forage crops, cotton, sugarcane, vegetables, fruits, oilseeds, pulse crops, jute, mesta and tobacco have been discussed in the second half of the book. The book contains a wealth of information on all aspects of insect pest management in agriculture under Indian conditions and would prove indispensable for students, teachers and researchers in agricultural entomology in India and other Asian countries.
Throughout life's myriad encounters and experiences, we often find ourselves awash in a sea of thoughts and emotions. In these moments, words become the vessel through which we explore nature's beauty, the grandeur of creation, the intricacies of relationships, and the ebb and flow of life's joys and sorrows. "Pie of a Moon" embarks on a thoughtprovoking journey, with Moon as a central character in stories passed down through grandmothers, then delving into the ways lovers express their admiration for its beauty and the visual connection that binds separated hearts. Along the way, it explores themes such as the unwavering love of a mother, the endless anticipation of a beloved's return, the silence shared by lovers, life's relentless struggles, and the profound beauty of togetherness. This collection, written in a mix of Hindi and English, is a profound voyage through the spectrum of human emotions, a canvas for the vivid expressions of joy, sorrow, gratitude, and the unending beauty of life's experiences.
This book entitled, Walt Whitman as a Poet-is a critical study of some of his major poems. It will be beneficial to the general reader, the college and university student and the isolated teacher in particular who may find a conspectus like this helpful and useful for presenting Walt Whitman to his students. Keeping this point in mind, the author has accordingly assayed to present, in the light of recent scholarship and comparative trends in modern criticism, a critical commentary on Whitman. Author's criticism carries insight, sensibility and judgment of high order. His critical study has established Whitman in clearer and terser terms as, being the pioneer American celebrant of self in all its sweep and magnitude. The author pointedly shows how sharply this self-differs from the traditional religious self. His cartography of Whitman's self is done with flair.
