However, with regard to African societies, since the dawn of racial slavery and colonialism, cultural capital - indigenous knowledge in particular - has iniquitously and acrimoniously suffered marginalisation and pejorative ragtags. Increasingly since the 1990's, cultural capital informed by African knowledge systems has taken central stage in discussions of sustainability and development. This is not unrelated with the recognition by America and Europe in particular of the central role that cultural capital could and should assume in the logic of development and sustainability at a global level. Unfortunately, action has often failed to match words with regard to the situation in Africa. The current book seeks to make a difference by exploring the role that African cultural capital could and should assume to guarantee development and sustainability on the continent and globally. It argues that lofty pan-African ideals of collective self-reliance, self-sustaining development and economic growth would come to naught unless determined and decisive steps are taken towards full recognition of indigenous cultural capital on the continent. 606 $aPan-Africanism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPan-Africanism. 676 $a320.549096 702 $aMawere$b Munyaradzi 702 $aAwuah-Nyamekye$b Samuel 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910460593003321 996 $aHarnessing cultural capital for sustainability$91988689 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03402nam 2200613 a 450 001 9910781548703321 005 20220829194926.0 010 $a1-283-36598-7 010 $a9786613365989 010 $a90-04-21443-7 024 7 $a10.1163/9789004214439 035 $a(CKB)2550000000073711 035 $a(EBL)1010599 035 $a(OCoLC)775468405 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000566186 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11973694 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000566186 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10534213 035 $a(PQKB)11731336 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1010599 035 $a(nllekb)BRILL9789004214439 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1010599 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10518818 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL336598 035 $a(PPN)170736113 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000000073711 100 $a20110915d2012 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aTextual research on the Psalms and Gospels$b[electronic resource] $epapers from the Tbilisi Colloquium on the Editing and History of Biblical Manuscripts /$fedited by Christian-B.

The Psalms = Psaumes -- pt. 2. The gospels = E?vangiles. 330 $aRecent research on the text of the Psalms and Gospels in Greek and in certain versions, principally Coptic, Georgian and Armenian, reveals common characteristics when attempting to separate later editions of a text from its earliest forms. The essays in this collection give concrete examples of the issues involved and suggested explanations for textual changes. Les versions anciennes de la Bible ont un intérêt majeur dans la mesure où elles traduisent un modèle qui n'est pas celui des traductions modernes et conservent ainsi des formes textuelles disparues, souvent très anciennes. C'est en particulier le cas des versions géorgiennes, pour lesquelles des convergences sont apparues entre les recherches menées à Tbilisi et dans diverses équipes européennes. Centré sur les psaumes et les évangiles, le colloque a réuni des communications concernant diverses langues de versions anciennes, en particulier le géogien, mais aussi le copte, le syriaque, l'arménien et l'albanien du Caucase, à partir du grec de la Septante et du Nouveau Testament. 410 0$aSupplements to Novum Testamentum ;$vv. 142. 517 3 $aRecherches textuelles sur les Psaumes et les Evangiles 676 $a226/.4046 701 $aAmphoux$b Christian-Bernard$01478337 701 $aElliott$b J.
