Generational Narration And Inspiration From Family Migration Traditions, Hamza Fadel Youssef, Hassan Majad Abdul Karim

Uruk Journal of Human Sciences

Although the term folk tale seems loose because it includes a huge crowd of narrative stories that have accumulated over the course of generations, the pattern of (family estrangement) remains specific to the elements of the popular formation of the birth of the hero and the estrangement of the tribe from its first places. Perhaps the most famous example of this is (the Hilali epic). The modern novelist has represented the components of Arab heritage in the nights, biographies, epics, and news, and tried to absorb their echoes: to benefit from the innovation of the new narrative form, aided by …

The Land Tenure Structure Of Agricultural Lands In Al-Qurna District, Mohamed Ramadan Mohamed, Hasna Khazal Mawazi

Uruk Journal of Human Sciences

Land represents the most important source of national wealth. It is a resource that is not equaled by any other natural resource, as it is the first condition for agricultural production. Therefore, the problem of land and the production relations arising from the forms of its possession and disposal constitute the essence of the agricultural issue in most developing countries. Accordingly, any attempt to advance and develop the agricultural sector is a partial, non-comprehensive and temporary treatment, and its effect may disappear after a period of time. On this basis, the first steps in agricultural development begin with reforming the …

The Words Of Nature Between Ibn Al-Labbana Al-Dani And Ibn Hamdis, Khadija Hashim Anoun Al-Awady, Star Jabbar Rizig

Uruk Journal of Human Sciences

The poetic language of the two poets (Ibn al-Labbana and Ibn Hamdis) constituted an important element that enabled the two poets to employ language to serve the cause of al-Mu'tamid (prince, poet and prisoner) within the framework of praise, pride and lamentation. There is no doubt that this poetic language is subject to a special psychological characteristic and a living connection with the psychological makeup of both poets. Al-Mu'tamid ibn Abbad - the famous Andalusian poet and prince - had his own distinction that distinguished him from his peers among other poets whose lives of authority and literature were distinguished …

Sciences are honored by the honor of their subjects and are elevated by the extent of the excellence of their discussions.

The most famous books on verbal ambiguity are (Asrar al-Takrar by al-Karmani and Kashf al-Maani) by Ibn Jama’ah, as they reveal the interpretation of verbal ambiguity contained in the language of revelation in two different eras.

The context, cultural competencies, linguistic styles represented by grammatical, morphological, and rhetorical usages, and all the circumstances surrounding the discourse can be exploited by the speaker in the form of arguments that lead to the result he wants to convey to the recipient.

Uruk Journal of Human Sciences

Demolishing Transcendental Structures In Postmodernist Fiction In Iraq, Hiam Abdel Zaid Attia

Uruk Journal of Human Sciences

The Iraqi novel has benefited from postmodern transformations, particularly the demolition of fixed structures and the destabilization of metaphysical semantics. This does not necessarily mean that the Iraqi novel has embraced all of these transformations at once, but rather that it has benefited from them in its rejection of stereotypes and the disruption of monotony in its textual construction, with a clear inclination toward one technique over another within a single text. Although the Iraqi novel has reluctantly embraced postmodernism, it still relies, in some of its artistic aspects, on its previous legacy and historical foundation. This demolition was manifested …

Place acquires this importance based on its being a geographical space without which the narrative event cannot occur. Place enjoys an important functional role as an active component in the narrative text, taking forms that contain multiple meanings through its reflection on the other components of the narrative …

Complaining About The Veil In Arabic Poetry Until The End Of The Abbasid Era, Ali Kazim Al-Madani, Faiza Abdul Zahra Jamil

Uruk Journal of Human Sciences

The research monitors the impact of modern administrative systems on Arabic poetry, through an example of it, which is (the system of hijab), which appeared in the Umayyad era and expanded in the Abbasid era until it became a major obstacle for poets in their access to the caliphs and men of power. The hijab played a major role in deepening the sense of suffering among them as a result of the poor treatment they inflicted, which sometimes reached the point of amusement and trivialization of those entering, which made the subject take on a broader character. The poets' methods …

Linguistic Argumentation Mechanisms In The Sermons Of Lady Zainab (Peace Be Upon Her), Naba Eabd Alamir Eabd

Uruk Journal of Human Sciences

The study of argumentative texts is neither modern nor contemporary. Rather, it traces its roots back to Greece, particularly Aristotle's works on rhetoric, followed by the Arabs' inheritance of the principles of rhetoric and the characteristics of the orator. Argumentative discourse is the foundation of texts directed and encompassing intentionality, discussion, criticism, and debate. Therefore, I chose to delve into this topic through heritage corpora represented by the sermons of Lady Zainab bint Ali ibn Abi Talib (peace be upon them). Because of their specificities, they are a fertile ground for this approach. I attempted to read this corpus based …

Uruk Journal of Human Sciences

The thirteenth century AH was marked by the emergence of a number of Shiite intellectual movements that differed among themselves, including the Akhbari movement, which entered into a dispute with the Usuli scholars. Each group had its own Usuli leaders, who were traditional clerics according to Twelver jurisprudence, who relied on the Qur’an, the Prophetic Sunnah, consensus, and reason. The Akhbari, on the other hand, were a group of Twelver Shiites who omitted the evidence of consensus and reason from the principles of jurisprudence, and this led to the emergence of a dispute between the two groups.

Germs Know No Color: Racial Segregation In Baltimore During The Influenza Pandemic Of 1918-1919, Victoria L. Michalski

Electronic Theses & Dissertations

The influenza pandemic in 1918-1919 killed more people worldwide in a shorter period than any other known historical epidemic. Wartime conditions and gatherings of large groups of people aided disease transmission. Racial segregation in Baltimore and other cities created overcrowding, and poor living and economic conditions for black citizens. These conditions affected black health and proved conducive to increased viral transmission and subsequent influenza infection. Higher influenza infection rates coupled with lower resistance led to higher mortality rates from secondary complications like pneumonia.

In my work, I examine the pandemic flu in Baltimore and especially racial segregation policies that ultimately …
