The Image of the Virgin Mary in the Akathistos Hymn

By: Leena Mari Peltomaa

The Akathistos Hymn, the most famous work of Byzantine hymnography, has been enshrined in the Orthodox liturgy since the year 626, and its image of the Virgin Mary has exerted a strong influence upon Marian poetry and literature. Anonymous, undated and highly rhetorical, the hymn has presented a challenge to scholars over the years. This study has been undertaken by an innovative method. The approach brings new insights to the era which brought forth the hymn, and the metaphorical image of the Virgin becomes conceptually accessible to the modern-day reader. The investigation leads to the conclusion that the Council of Ephesus (431) constitutes the most likely historical context for the hymn's composition. The book will be of value to all scholars of early Byzantine and Marian studies.

Bloomsbury—An Activity-based Integrated Course Class 1 Semester 2 AY (2023-24)Onward

By: Leena Kapoor,Dr Lucy Shaily,R. S. Dhauni,Nisha Mudgal,Sara George,Sr. Vijaya

Bloomsbury—An Activity-based Integrated Course for LKG, UKG and Classes 1 to 5 has been designed and formulated in accordance with the guidelines of National Education Policy (NEP) 2020.The series comprises a set of fourteen books, two for each class and one per semester. Semester books for LKG and UKG include English, Mathematics and Environmental Science. Semester books for Classes 1 and 2 include English, Mathematics, Environmental Science and General Knowledge. Semester books for Classes 3 to 5 include English, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies and General Knowledge. The series is strictly aligned with the basic tenets of NEP 2020. Thus, a lot of emphasis has been laid on promoting activity-based and experiential approach to learning. The series also seeks to develop the core twenty-first-century skills in learners, which lie at the heart of NEP 2020. Besides, great care has been taken to make learning a joyful experience for the learners. All this will together lay a strong foundation at the primary level and lead to the holistic development of the learners at each level. Some of the key features of the series are: • Key concepts supported with visual activities, games and real-life examples • Carefully-graded and comprehensive exercises to facilitate true evaluation • Online support in the form of animated lessons, interactive exercises, topic-wise videos and E-books (For Teachers only) as per the requirement of the subject • Teachers Resource Book to facilitate teaching ENGLISH The content for English is a perfect blend of the best of both worlds—past and present. The selections are based on the learners’ interests, and, therefore, will not only easily arrest their attention but also facilitate longer retention. The graded exercises lay appropriate emphasis on learning the four basic language skills of Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing. Grammar Section in each book offers simple and clear conceptual understanding. MATHEMATICS The Mathematical concepts have been dealt with in an interesting and comprehensive manner. This way even an average child will have no difficulty in grasping the fundamentals. The series follows a graded and spiral approach, keeping in mind the age and level of understanding of the learner. ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES NEP 2020 lays emphasis on promoting the spirit of analysis and questioning because it has been increasingly felt that children learn more through talking, observing and discussing with others. This approach has been adopted in EVS content. SCIENCE The content in this section emphasises meaningful learning of science for the overall development of learners. It focuses on helping children understand their natural environment and correlate science with their everyday experiences in an interesting and comprehensive manner. SOCIAL STUDIES A totally new and innovative approach to teaching social studies has been adopted in this section. The lessons enhance the learners’ life skills and equip them with a high civic sense and arm them with an ability to face the challenges in life with confidence, and as responsible citizens. GENERAL KNOWLEDGE The main objective of the General Knowledge section is to create a sense of wonder in the learners and arouse in them a desire to learn and find out more about the world around them. We look forward for feedback and constructive criticism from the students, teachers and parents, which will be given due consideration in the future reprints and editions of the books.

Myth and Mentality

By: Anna-Leena Siikala

The recent fascination in Finnish folklore studies with popular thought and the values and emotions encoded in oral tradition began with the realisation that the vast collections of the Finnish folklore archives still have much to offer the modern-day researcher. These archive materials were not only collected by scholars, but also by the ordinary rural populace interested in their own traditions, by performers and their audiences. With its myriad voices, this body of source material thus provides new avenues for the researcher seeking to penetrate popular thought. What does oral tradition tell us about the way its performers think and feel? What sorts of beliefs and ideas are transmitted in traditional songs and narratives? Perspectives from the study of mentalities and cultural cognition research provide a framework for investigating these issues. This collection of articles works from the premise that the cultural models which shape mentalities give rise to manifest expressions of culture, including folklore. These models also become embedded in the representations appearing in folklore, and are handed down from one generation to the next. The topics of the book cover age-old myths and world views, concepts of witchcraft and the Devil stretching back to the Middle Ages, and the values and collective emotions of Finnish and Hungarian agrarian communities.

Creating Diversities

Folklore, Religion and the Politics of Heritage

By: Anna-Leena Siikala,Klein Barbro,Mathisen Stein R.

The effects of globalization and the momentous changes to the political map of Europe have led to a world in which multiculturalism and ethnic differences have become issues of increasing importance. In Nordic countries, relationships between new immigrants, local ethnic groups and majorities are created in ongoing and sometimes heated discussions. In transforming multicultural societies, folklore has taken on new manifestations and meanings. How can folklore studies illuminate the present cultural, political and historical changes? Creating Diversities. Folklore, Religion and the Politics of Heritage seeks answers to this question. It emphasizes two important factors in the cultural and political exchanges among historical minorities, recent immigrants, and the majority groups dictating the conditions of these exchanges. The first factor is religion, which is a powerful tool in the construction of ethnic selves and in the establishment of boundaries between groups. The second factor is the role of national and regional folklore archives and ethnographic and cultural historical museums which create ideas and images of minorities. These representations, created in different political climates, affect the general understanding of the people depicted. Fifteen well-known folklorists and ethnographers from Norway, Sweden, Finland, Estonia and the United States offer insights and background material on these problems. In addition to immigrants and ethnic minorities in the Nordic countries, especially the Sámi, examples are sought from among the Finno-Ugrian minorities in Russia and the Nordic population in North America.
