Official statistics in Belgium, 1795-1870, Nele Bracke unravels why and how the Belgian state and its predecessors organized and developed an official statistical apparatus in order to collect numerical information. The study captures the underlying objectives and structures, as well as the methods to compile statistics. Nele Bracke investigates the meaning and significance of government statistics in the 19th-century State and society. In Belgium, early social scientists established an internationally renowned ‘statistical system’ designed to collect information about the country, the people and the society. This ‘statistical system’ was built around the ‘Commission centrale de Statistique’ (statistical committee) and the production of demographic, economic and agricultural censuses. In the first part of the book, the author analyses the institutional history of the ‘Commission centrale de Statistique’ and its predecessors. In the second part of the book, she studies the censuses.Historische economie en ecologie.Social SciencesHILCCStatistics - GeneralHILCCBelgiumCensusHistory19th centurybelgian historybelgische geschiedenis19e eeuwoverheidsstatistiekinstituitional historygovernment statistics19th centuryinstitutionele geschiedenisSocial SciencesStatistics - GeneralBracke Nele800998PQKBUkMaJRU996201664803316Een monument voor het land1986055UNISA05027nam 22011175 450 991049615060332120240410063047.01-282-35537-697866123553700-520-90873-20-585-13541-X10.1525/9780520908734(CKB)111004366700856(EBL)223299(OCoLC)630527841(SSID)ssj0000249424(PQKBManifestationID)11192981(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000249424(PQKBWorkID)10206697(PQKB)10239655(StDuBDS)EDZ0000084995(MiAaPQ)EBC223299(OCoLC)43476836(MdBmJHUP)muse30801(DE-B1597)518708(DE-B1597)9780520908734(EXLCZ)9911100436670085620200424h19891989 fg 0engurnn#---|u||utxtccrSpeak, bird, speak again Palestinian Arab folktales /Ibrahim Muhawi, Sharif Kanaana1st ed.Berkeley, CA :University of California Press,[1989]©19891 online resource (441 p.)Includes indexes.0-520-06292-2 Bibliography: p. 405-412.Front matter --Contents --Foreword --Acknowledgments --Note On Transliteration --Key To References --Introduction --Notes On Presentation And Translation --Children And Parents --Siblings --Sexual Awakening And Courtship --The Quest For The Spouse --Brides And Bridegrooms --Husbands And Wives --Family Life --Group III • Society --Group IV • Environment --Group V • Universe --Folkloristic Analysis --Appendix A: Transliteration Of Tale 10 --Appendix B: Index Of Folk Motifs --Appendix C: List Of Tales By Type --Selected Bibliography --Footnote IndexWere it simply a collection of fascinating, previously unpublished folktales, Speak, Bird, Speak Again: Palestinian Arab Folktales would merit praise and attention because of its cultural rather than political approach to Palestinian studies. But it is much more than this. By combining their respective expertise in English literature and anthropology, Ibrahim Muhawi and Sharif Kanaana bring to these tales an integral method of study that unites a sensitivity to language with a deep appreciation for culture. As native Palestinians, the authors are well-suited to their task. Over the course of several years they collected tales in the regions of the Galilee, Gaza, and the West Bank, determining which were the most widely known and appreciated and selecting the ones that best represented the Palestinian Arab folk narrative tradition. Great care has been taken with the translations to maintain the original flavor, humor, and cultural nuances of tales that are at once earthy and whimsical. The authors have also provided footnotes, an international typology, a comprehensive motif index, and a thorough analytic guide to parallel tales in the larger Arab tradition in folk narrative. Speak, Bird, Speak Again is an essential guide to Palestinian culture and a must for those who want to deepen their understanding of a troubled, enduring people.Folk literature, ArabicPalestineTranslations into EnglishPalestinian ArabsFolkloreTalesPalestineanthropology.arab.arabs.bridegrooms.brides.courtship.creation myths.environment.fairy tales.fiction.folk narrative.folklore.folktales.galilee.gaza.gender.husbands and wives.islam.love.middle east literature.middle east.motif index.mythology.nature.nonfiction.oral tradition.palestine.palestinian arab.palestinian culture.palestinian folktales.palestinian studies.parenting.romance.sexuality.social science.storytelling.typology.west bank.Folk literature, ArabicPalestinian ArabsTales398.2/095694Muhawi Ibrahimauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1230736Kanāʻnah Sharīfauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910496150603321Speak, bird, speak again2857481UNINA
