He does so by comparing deconstructive and African thought on the spoken utterance, nothingness, conjuration, the oath or vow, occult sorcery, blood election, violence, circumcision, totemic inscription practices, animal metamorphosis and sacrifice, the Abrahamic, fratricide, and jihad. Situated against the backdrop of the Ansar Dine's recent jihad in Northern Mali, Sorcery, Totem and Jihad in African Philosophy examines the root causes of the conflict and offers insight into the Sahel's ancient, complex, and vibrant civilization. This book also demonstrates the relevance of deconstructive thought in the African setting, especially the writing of the Franco-Algerian philosopher Jacques Derrida."--Bloomsbury Publishing.Suspensions (Series)DeconstructionPhilosophy, AfricanDeconstructionism, Structuralism, Post-structuralismElectronic books.Deconstruction.Philosophy, African.199/.6Wise Christopher1961-1067340UtOrBLWUtOrBLWBOOK9910162766803321Sorcery, totem, and Jihad in African philosophy2550955UNINA02953nam 22006135 450 99621637500331620200702053044.03-662-46845-X10.1007/978-3-662-46845-6(CKB)3710000000436991(SSID)ssj0001558598(PQKBManifestationID)16184025(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001558598(PQKBWorkID)14819066(PQKB)11086024(DE-He213)978-3-662-46845-6(MiAaPQ)EBC5596435(PPN)186399189(EXLCZ)99371000000043699120150623d2015 u| 0engurnn|008mamaatxtccrMultiplication Operators on the Bergman Space[electronic resource] /by Kunyu Guo, Hansong Huang1st ed. 2015.Berlin, Heidelberg :Springer Berlin Heidelberg :Imprint: Springer,2015.1 online resource (VIII, 322 p. 11 illus., 1 illus. in color.) Lecture Notes in Mathematics,0075-8434 ;2145Includes Index.3-662-46844-1 Includes bibliographical references.Introduction -- Some preliminaries -- Cowen-Thomson's theorem -- Reducing subspaces associated eith finite Blaschke products -- Reducing subspaces associated with thin Blaschke products -- Covering maps and von Neumann algebras -- Operator-theoretic aspect on von Neumann algebras -- Similarity and unitary equivalence.This book deals with various aspects of commutants and reducing subspaces of multiplication operators on the Bergman space, along with relevant von Neumann algebras generated by these operators, which have been the focus of considerable attention from the authors and other experts in recent years. The book reviews past developments and offers insights into cutting-edge developments in the study of multiplication operators. It also provides commentary and comparisons to stimulate research in this area.Lecture Notes in Mathematics,0075-8434 ;2145Operator theoryFunctional analysisOperator Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M12139Functional Analysishttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M12066Operator theory.Functional analysis.Operator Theory.Functional Analysis.515.724Guo Kunyuauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut67615Huang Hansongauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996216375003316Multiplication Operators on the Bergman Space2056990UNISA
