"This volume is a companion to Ohio University in Perspective, which brought together the annual convocation addresses of President Ping from the years 1975 through 1984. Like the earlier volume, Ohio University in Perspective II provides an important window onto the world of Ohio University during the president's second decade of service. There is no convocation address for 1987 because President Ping was very deeply involved in the work of the Colloquium on the Third Century. "The appendix brings together two documents from the period 1985-1994 pus the president's inaugural address. The document entitled Toward the Third Century: Issues and Choices for Ohio University grew out of a colloquium convened by the president to provide a new educational plan for the University. The Board of Trustees adopted this report in January 1988 as Educational Plan II to supplement the previous plan adopted in 1977. A second colloquium, dealing with general education, produced the report entitled 'The Continuing Reform of General Education' to provoke campus discussion on ways to enhance the University's general education program. Although not adopted as a set of changes to general education, the report set an agenda for continuing discussion and debate on strategies to improve general education and to integrate its goals more fully into campus life. "The annual convocation addresses offer a vision of what Ohio University could become, and over the nine years they encompass, that vision increasingly became shared by the academic community. This volume is presented by the Trustees of Ohio University and the Ohio University Foundation as their gift to Charles J. Ping for his nineteen years of leadership to the University." --Foreword by David Stewart, Provost

A Historical and Pictorial Presentation and Tribute to the Tamil Indian Migration and Settlement in Mauritius and their Descendants (1728 To Present Times) and in other Parts of the World' by Professor Dr. Armoogum Parsuramen (GOSK), Founder-President, International Thirukkural Foundation & Chairman, Global Rainbow Foundation and Mr. Satyendra Peerthum, AOYP, Historian, Aapravasi Ghat Trust Fund (Aapravasi Ghat World Heritage Site) & Writer, and Lecturer is a landmark book which is being launched by the Armoogum Parsuramen Foundation marking the 294th anniversary of the arrival of the Tamil artisans and slaves from India to Mauritian shores on 11th November 2022 and the 188th anniversary of the arrival of the Indian indentured workers in Mauritius on 2nd November 2022. It is estimated that between 1728 and 1930, more than 150,000 Tamil Indian artisans, free passengers including merchants and traders, slaves, and indentured men, women, and children reached the shores of our small Indian ocean island paradise. Out of which the majority were the estimated more than 107,000 Tamil Indian indentured workers who arrived in British Mauritius between 1826 and 1910. This ground-breaking book is essentially the long, complex, and epic social history of their migration, settlement, and of their descendants in the making of the Mauritian state and nation over a period of almost three centuries.

Christianity Today 2013 Book Award Winner Winner of The Foundation for Pentecostal Scholarship's 2012 Award of Excellence 2011 Book of the Year, Christianbook.com's Academic Blog Most modern prejudice against biblical miracle reports depends on David Hume's argument that uniform human experience precluded miracles. Yet current research shows that human experience is far from uniform. In fact, hundreds of millions of people today claim to have experienced miracles. New Testament scholar Craig Keener argues that it is time to rethink Hume's argument in light of the contemporary evidence available to us. This wide-ranging and meticulously researched two-volume study presents the most thorough current defense of the credibility of the miracle reports in the Gospels and Acts. Drawing on claims from a range of global cultures and taking a multidisciplinary approach to the topic, Keener suggests that many miracle accounts throughout history and from contemporary times are best explained as genuine divine acts, lending credence to the biblical miracle reports.

This study draws on the life of renowned historian, Robert H. Ferrell, to explore issues related to the history profession. Ferrell’s life story contextualizes postmodernism, the New Left, and the challenges of crafting history. The author analyzes Ferrell’s biases, examining distinctions between his morals and actions as well as his private and public life. This book provides crucial insight into the subjectivity of history, the boundaries of the discipline, and the effects of historians’ social lives on their work.

Investigating the history of vagrants in colonial Australia and New Zealand, this book provides insights into the histories and identities of marginalised peoples in the British Pacific Empire. Showing how their experiences were produced, shaped and transformed through laws and institutions, it reveals how the most vulnerable people in colonial society were regulated, marginalised and criminalised in the imperial world. Studying the language of vagrancy prosecution, narratives of mobility and welfare, vagrant families, gender and mobility and the political, social and cultural interpretations of vagrancy, this book sets out a conceptual framework of mobility as a field of inquiry for legal and historical studies. Defining 'mobility' as population movement and the occupation of new social and physical space, it offers an entry point to the related histories of penal colonies and new 'settler' societies. It provides insights into shared histories of vagrancy across New South Wales, Victoria, Tasmania and New Zealand, and explores how different jurisdictions regulated mobility within the temporal and geographical space of the British Pacific Empire.
