In this class exploring the life, and research of the great Senegalese scientist, philosopher and statesman Cheikh Anta Diop and his life, Nicholas Jones (President of Artists’ Alliance for Africa) introduces a picture of Africa and her deep history that is quite different from what we might expect. A precolonial glory connected with Egypt’s ancient past that Cheikh Anta Diop managed, through his rigorous research to uncover.Nicholas takes us through the major empires that spanned Africa during the pre-colonial period and uses his study of Mr Diop’s revolutionary work to reveal a part of how society, as a whole with all its colorful parts, functioned during that period. We discover that West Africa was a place of unrivalled beauty during this period and it’s this history that Mr Cheikh Anta Diop wishes to be used culturally to create a New African Renaissance and so we put to question exactly that, when will that become so and what will this Renaissance look like?

Dr. Obadele Kambon - PhD Graduation - University of Ghana 2013 - July 26, 2013

Dr. Obadele Kambon 2013 UG-Legon Vice Chancellor's Award for Outstanding Thesis - Humanities

Comments from the external examiner:
The main findings of the research point to the fact that (a) An overwhelming majority (98%) of Full Lexicalized-Integrated SVCs have nominal counterparts; 2% do not; (b) Only 3% of Partial Lexicalized-Integrated SVCs have nominal counterparts; 97% do not; (c) Clause Chaining Serial Constructions appear to nominalize haphazardly and/or unsystematically as frozen sentences or figures of speech (idioms, proverbs, etc.; (d) The primary function of such forms, he identified, were what Charles Morris (1971) calls denotata and designata; Full Lexicalized-Integrated SVCs behave as lexicalized idioms and because of this, four criteria of idiomaticity namely -- collocability, familiarity, flexibility and compositionality -- are applied to them; and (g) There is systematicity in the pattern of nominalization behavior of serial verb nominal across the main Akan dialects.
This work recapitulates and substantially extends work already done on Akan SVCs Osam, Agyeman and others. A major contribution of the dissertation is the detailed discussion and exemplification of issues relating to nominalization of SVCs. This is the first attempt at such a detailed discussion and exemplification and the candidate deserves commendation. His categorizations are original as is his attention to scholarly detail and to showing the relationship between and among the three major Akan dialects. One could conveniently argue that this is one of the strongest points of the dissertation.
Very little has been done on Akan nominalization in general and little to nothing on SVC nominalization in particular, so this study is a trailblazer or a path-finder! Syntacticians and semanticists will cite this work and continue with the discussion and issues it raises for the next couple of decades. I am impressed with the details and both the candidate and his advisors must be commended for the high degree of systematicity employed in the synthesis and analyses done in the study.
The candidate drew his conclusions based on the actual data collected and on the results (synthesis and analysis of the data) thereby making the analytical claims have functional validity and protecting them from standing insulated from public scrutiny. This is, again, commendable.
The recommendations for future research, especially, his call for comparing SVNs with other types of nominalizations, is in the right direction more especially due to the scantiness and dearth of knowledge about nominalizations in general about Akan and other West African languages in particular.
The dissertation is very well written and I am willing to pass it without any reservation whatsoever. The content is excellent as is its rendition.

Comments from the internal examiner:

The study does a good job of relating the data and findings to broader theoretical debates in the Functional/cognitive linguistic literature. For example, study results suggest that, at least in the Akan data examined, higher degrees of semantic integration in complex forms correlate with lower degrees of iconicity. Further, the subtype categories of serial verb constructions identified by Osam (1994) are "fuzzy" categories in terms of ability to undergo nominalization. This supports the prototype approach to categorization, rather than a classical "sharp-boundary" approach to categorization though the author does not particularly draw it out rhetorically, the study sits squarely within the linguistic sub-field of Lexicography: the study is a detailed investigation of speakers' lexical knowledge of nouns formed (either historically or productively possibly in the moment of speaking) from serial verb constructions. In my view, the lexicographic work, bringing out native-speaker knowledge about the complex forms including in some cases how this may have changed across time and may vary by dialect, may be one of the most enduring contributions of the study. Many of the item-by-item findings could, for example, largely be incorporated into an etymological dictionary of Akan.
The study contributes new information to understanding the cross-linguistic and Akan-internal typology of nominalizations of serial verb constructions. The minute detail on dialect variation is valuable for sociolinguistic variationist studies.

In this enlightening documentary, we embark on a journey through time to uncover the hidden history of Yahweh, the God of the Bible, as perceived by his ancient worshippers. Our exploration is rooted in the groundbreaking research of Francesca Stavrakopoulou, as presented in her seminal work "God: An Anatomy." Delving deep into the ancient Near Eastern context, we reveal a startling reality: Yahweh, once part of a larger divine family, was not always the solitary figure we recognize today.

We explore the fascinating, yet lesser-known aspects of Yahweh's identity – his relationship with his father El, his consort Asherah, and his position within a broader pantheon of deities. This documentary challenges conventional views, shedding light on the transformation of Yahweh from a member of a divine assembly to the sole omnipotent deity of later monotheistic traditions.

Prepare to be astonished as we unravel the intricate tapestry of ancient beliefs, rituals, and theological evolutions. This is a must-watch for those seeking to understand the complex origins and evolution of one of the world's most influential deities. Whether you're a scholar, a student of history, or simply curious, this documentary promises to be a revelatory and thought-provoking experience, opening eyes to a dimension of biblical history seldom discussed in mainstream discourse.

Economist Jeffrey Sachs presented in the European Parliament an analysis of the role of the United States, Europe and Russia in the current geopolitical scenario. During his speech on February 19, 2025, he said that the United States could lose interest in Ukraine and recommended that Europe define an independent foreign policy. Sachs pointed out that the relationship with Washington entails risks. “Being the enemy of the United States is dangerous, but being your friend is fatal,” he said. In addition, he stressed that European stock markets have reacted with optimism before the ongoing negotiations, which suggests a possible change in the dynamics of the conflict. He also urged the Baltic States to prioritize stability in the region due to the presence of Russian-speaking communities.► Subscribe to The Economic Times for the latest video updates.
