Sinopsis

In "Labour: The Divine Command," Leo Tolstoy presents an incisive exploration of labor's moral and spiritual dimensions. At the intersection of philosophy and social criticism, this short yet profound essay grapples with the nature of work and its existential significance. Tolstoy employs a direct and straightforward prose style, echoing the influences of his contemporary social reform movements while steeped in biblical themes. The text challenges the reader to reconsider the intrinsic value of labor beyond material gain, emphasizing its role as a divine command that fosters personal fulfillment and communal well-being. Leo Tolstoy, a titan of Russian literature, was not only a novelist but also a fervent social activist deeply affected by the socio-economic dilemmas of his era. His personal experiences with agrarian life and his socio-economic contemplations, particularly after his conversion to a more austere Christian ethic, led him to reflect critically on the ethics of labor. Tolstoy's belief in the transformative power of work is vividly articulated in this essay, showcasing his profound commitment to promoting social justice and the dignity of the peasant class. This essential read invites scholars, theologians, and anyone interested in the philosophical implications of work to engage with Tolstoy's compelling insights. "Labour: The Divine Command" stands as a testament to the enduring relevance of labor in human life, encouraging readers to find meaning in their own work and its capacity for divine connection.

Technology in Education -...

Craig Dames

Technology has played a crucial role in transforming education, evolving from simple tools like chalk and slates to modern digital platforms that facilitate learning in new and dynamic ways. As society has advanced, so has the need for more innovative teaching methods that enhance students’ understanding, engagement, and accessibility to knowledge. The journey of educational technology is a testament to human creativity and the desire to improve learning experiences across generations.
In the early stages of formal education, teaching methods relied heavily on oral instruction, handwritten texts, and rudimentary visual aids. With the invention of the printing press in the 15th century, books became more widely available, revolutionizing how information was shared and retained. This breakthrough allowed for the standardization of curricula and the spread of literacy on a much larger scale. Over time, blackboards and chalk became staple tools in classrooms, offering a way for teachers to visually illustrate lessons.
The 20th century marked a significant shift in educational technology. The introduction of radio and television into learning environments allowed educators to reach wider audiences, particularly in remote areas. In the 1960s and 1970s, computers began appearing in schools, though their use was initially limited to basic programming and computational tasks. As the digital revolution progressed, personal computers became more accessible, paving the way for multimedia presentations, digital research, and interactive learning experiences.

The Last Prince of Bengal - A...

Lyn Innes

The Nawab Nazim was born into one of India's most powerful royal families. Three times the size of Great Britain, his kingdom ranged from the soaring Himalayas to the Bay of Bengal. However, the Nawab was seen as a threat by the British authorities, who forced him to abdicate in 1880 and permanently abolished his titles. The Nawab's change in fortune marked the end of an era in India and left his secret English family abandoned.
The Last Prince of Bengal tells the true story of the Nawab Nazim and his family as they sought by turns to befriend, settle in and eventually escape Britain. From glamourous receptions with Queen Victoria to a scandalous Muslim marriage with an English chambermaid; and from Bengal tiger hunts to sheep farming in the harsh Australian outback, Lyn Innes recounts her ancestors' extraordinary journey from royalty to relative anonymity.
This compelling account visits the extremes of British rule in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, exposing complex prejudices regarding race, class and gender. It is the intimate story of one family and their place in defining moments of recent Indian, British and Australian history.
'I was captivated and surprised by this bitter-sweet history as it twists and turns down three generations, through many astonishing changes of fame and fortune, from a glittering Bengal palace to an Australian sheep farm. Lovingly researched and meticulously told, The Last Prince of Bengal is notable for its candid revelations of British colonial attitudes and hypocrisies across two centuries. A rich, delightful and unexpectedly thought-provoking saga.' --Richard Holmes
Lyn Innes explores her ancestors' history in moving detail, capturing the tragic story of the dethroned princes of Bengal who had to make their lives in foreign lands, marked forever by the harsh legacy of Empire.'-- Shrabani Basu, author of Victoria and Abdul: The Extraordinary True Story of the Queen's Closest Confidant
