One of the greatest of seers, an apex personality in the history of mankind who ascended to the crest of the universal forces to eliminate the poignancy of human ignorance on earth. He made a God’s Labour with great adventure to free man from the shackles of the iron rules of imposed destiny. He had to make a supreme sacrifice to change the destiny of mankind by rendering his own earthly body as a base for the descent of the highest Truth, Power, Light, Force and Consciousness onto the earth for a luminous future of mankind. He fulfilled his ultimate dream of liberating humanity from the vicious circle of ignorance and inconscience. The Saviour of mankind is none other than Sri Aurobindo, who has achieved all for humanity and charted the pathway for humanity to a delightful, glorious New World and New divine Race.... In the upheaval of humanity’s evolutionary journey, Sri Aurobindo has explored and prepared a path for mankind leading to a world of Beauty and Love. We must follow that path to find that divine life where there would be no disease, decay, death, or destruction. Life would no longer be a confusion and chaos, a struggle for basic survival; there would be no quarrels, fighting, competition; there would be no war, accidents, calamities; there would be no more selfishness, ego-eccentric attitudes, ingratitude, inhumanity, cruelty, poverty, suffering or pain; there would be no medical emergencies, heinous killing and murder, barbarism, vandalism....
Ten contributions from academics in a variety of disciplines consider the social phenomenon of "passing." The focus is on the construction of identity and its relationship to visibility. Topics include, for example, Jews passing as Christians and the politics of race; "slumming" and class analysis; and 20th century male impersonators and women's suffrage. The volume is not indexed. c. Book News Inc.
Holidays are a key to helping us understand the transformation of national, regional, community and ethnic identities. In Celebrating Canada, Matthew Hayday and Raymond Blake situate Canada in an international context as they examine the history and evolution of our national and provincial holidays and annual celebrations. The contributors to this volume examine such holidays as Dominion Day, Victoria Day, Quebec’s Fête Nationale and Canadian Thanksgiving, among many others. They also examine how Canadians celebrate the national days of other countries (like the Fourth of July) and how Dominion Day was observed in the United Kingdom. Drawing heavily on primary source research, and theories of nationalism, identities and invented traditions, the essays in this collection deepen our understanding of how these holidays have influenced the evolution of Canadian identities.

The idea that humankind constituted a unity, albeit at different stages of 'development', was in the 19th century challenged with a new way of thinking. The 'savagery' of certain races was no longer regarded as a stage in their progress towards 'civilisation', but as their permanent state. What caused this shift? In Kay Anderson's provocative new account, she argues that British colonial encounters in Australia from the late 1700s with the apparently unimproved condition of the Australian Aborigine, viewed against an understanding of 'humanity' of the time (that is, as characterised by separation from nature), precipitated a crisis in existing ideas of what it meant to be human. This lucid, intelligent and persuasive argument will be necessary reading for all scholars and upper-level students interested in the history and theories of 'race', critical human geography, anthropology, and Australian and environmental studies.
But he also finds the first traces of modern ideas of race and the protoscences of late medieval cabalism and hermeticism. Following that trail forward, he describes the establishment of modern scientific and philosophical notions of race in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and shows how those notions became popular and pervasive, even among those who claim to be nonracist.
