Because it bears unmistakable traces of social change, it also becomes an invaluable source for the study of indigenous perceptions of shifting relationships, developing ideologies and evolving reactions to economic, social and political experience.This book contains twenty-eight traditional circumcision songs of the Kikuyu people, taperecorded in January 1972 during a celebration organized on the eve of the circumcision of a young boy from Kiambu, the principal town of the southern part of Kikuyu country. Because numerous problems of understanding and interpreting remain to be solved, the English translation which accompanies the original kikuyu text is tentative and provisional.In the introduction the author explains why he nevertheless decided in favour of publication. Stating that he is serving ethnographic purposes, not linguistic or literary ones, his argumentation echos Evans-Pritchard authoritative plea for sharing with professional public as much as possible of what one has gathered as fieldnotes. To confer upon ethnographic documents the status of printed material, however defective their condition by the standards of armchair scholars, constitutes the equivalent of storing potsherds, jawbones or bits of fabric: the way to save them for future generations of researchers as well as autochtonous readers. And one cannot know how valuable what may appear to one at the time to be trifle may be to a student in the future who may be asking questions which one did not ask oneself.Studia anthropologica.CircumcisionCircumcision.392.1Neckebrouck Valeer1280073NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910219996003321Irua3016521UNINA04477nam 22006732 450 991079040600332120151005020621.01-139-88907-91-107-24143-X1-107-25099-41-107-25016-11-107-24767-51-107-24850-71-139-15123-11-107-24933-3(CKB)2550000001115122(EBL)1357565(OCoLC)858762285(SSID)ssj0000890237(PQKBManifestationID)11467954(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000890237(PQKBWorkID)10883465(PQKB)10095696(UkCbUP)CR9781139151238(Au-PeEL)EBL1357565(CaPaEBR)ebr10752999(CaONFJC)MIL515424(MiAaPQ)EBC1357565(EXLCZ)99255000000111512220110906d2013|||| uy| 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierIntermediated securities the impact of the Geneva Securities Convention and the future European legislation /edited by Pierre-Henri Conac, Ulrich Segna, and Luc Thévenoz[electronic resource]Cambridge :Cambridge University Press,2013.1 online resource (xxxv, 406 pages) digital, PDF file(s)Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015).1-107-02347-5 1-299-84173-2 Includes bibliographical references and index.The Geneva Securities Convention : objectives, history, and guiding principles / Luc Thévenoz -- Market needs as paradigm -- breaking up the thinking on EU securities law / Philipp Paech -- The proposed EU legislation on securities holding / Habib Motani -- Rights of the account holder relating to securities credited to its securities account / Philippe Dupont -- Rights of the investor / Pierre-Henri Conac -- Transfer of intermediated securities / Luc Thévenoz -- The truth about shortfall of intermediated securities -- perspectives under the Geneva Securities Convention, United States law, and the future EU legislation / Charles W.

Instead, securities such as shares or bonds are mostly held through intermediaries and transferred by way of book-entries on securities accounts. However, there are remarkable conceptual differences between the various jurisdictions with regard to the legal treatment of intermediated securities. It is widely agreed that this patchwork creates considerable legal risks, especially in cross-border situations. Two initiatives are in place to reduce these risks. In 2009, the UNIDROIT Convention on Substantive Rules for Intermediated Securities (the 'Geneva Securities Convention') was adopted, aimed at harmonisation on the international level. The EU Commission is also running a legislative project, to achieve harmonisation at the regional level. This book compares both initiatives and analyses their impact on the securities laws of selected European jurisdictions.SecuritiesEuropeIntermediation (Finance)Law and legislationEuropeIntermediated securitiesSecuritiesIntermediation (Finance)Law and legislation346.24/0666Conac Pierre-HenriSegna UlrichThévenoz LucUkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910790406003321Intermediated securities3689498UNINA02075nam 22004693 450 991091565320332120230630080355.02-14-014485-6(CKB)4100000010947306(MiAaPQ)EBC30608055(Au-PeEL)EBL30608055(Exl-AI)30608055(EXLCZ)99410000001094730620230630d2020 uy 0freurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierLes Larmes La Conscience et L'émotion1st ed.Paris :Editions L'Harmattan,2020.©2020.1 online resource (175 pages)Psycho-Logiques Series2-336-89560-9 2-343-19463-7 Jean-Pierre Fresco's book explores the complex interrelations between consciousness, emotion, and tears. By integrating perspectives from philosophy, art, psychology, religious history, and musical aesthetics, Fresco examines the enigmatic nature and power of tears. The book delves into the anatomy and physiology of tears as well as their mystical and religious significance. It engages with the works of renowned thinkers such as Antonio Damasio and Joseph LeDoux, providing a comprehensive analysis that challenges traditional psychoanalytic discourse. Fresco emphasizes the importance of emotional expression and the unique truths revealed through tears, arguing against reductionist materialism. This work is aimed at readers interested in the philosophical and psychological aspects of human emotion and consciousness.Generated by AI.Psycho-Logiques Serieslarmes TearsGenerated by AIEmotionsGenerated by AITears.Emotions.Fresco Jean-Pierre1606937MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910915653203321Les Larmes4302664UNINA
