Tragic drama since the Classical Greece has had some distinct changes in the course of its development. Since the time of Sophocles, tragedy has been shaped by different theatrical conventions and philosophies. It has experienced different kinds of change under various kinds of situations, pressures etc., which obviously came from the changing world about it. Each period sees the development of a special orientation and emphasis, a characteristic style of theatre. The framework of this paper falls on its search to draw a comparative analysis of the Classical, Renaissance and Modern tragedies. The tragic conception from the time of the Greeks to the present has undergone a metamorphosis in definitions and experience This paper therefore highlights the fundamental similarities and differences between the tragedies of the Classical, the Renaissance and the Modern ages. It discusses the overall significance of changes in convention which tragedy like every other genre has undergone from the ancient period. The paper concludes that it is obvious from the consideration of the three great periods of tragedy that no theatrical period ever repeats itself as there are differences among them as there must be since the theatre of any given period reflects the world in which it exists.

The study examined the E-cheating awareness and attitudes of senior secondary certificate examination’s (SSCE) candidates in Ondo state with the view of proffering solution to reported cases of examination malpractices in the study locate. The sample for the study comprised three hundred and ten (310) candidates selected from five coaching centres through purposive sampling techniques. Two research questions guided the study using two instruments named: Students’ E-cheating Awareness Questionnaire (SEAQ) and Students’ Attitude to E-cheating Scale (SAES). The instruments were given experts’ validation. The results were analyzed using frequency count and mean statistics. The result showed (mean=2.54) indicating that the SSCE candidates were aware that questions and answers were online prior to the day of their examinations and some students have access to SSCE questions and their answers through various websites. Further, the result indicated that larger proportion of the candidates (mean=3.52) had positive attitude to E-cheating with the opinion that cheating in examination was good and helped students to pass. The study found that the respondents were of the notion that since Nigerian leaders were corrupt, nothing is wrong in electronic cheating. It was therefore recommended that integrity clubs should be established in schools to develop in students’ examination ethics and help them to acquire the values of handwork that will checkmate their involvement in examination malpractices.

Biomedical translation does not occupy the most central position in the world of medicine, it certainly plays an important role in knowledge mediation, which involves sharing medical research results, publicizing new findings in the international scientific community and marketing new medical products and services. The study explored language education for sustainable biomedical translation in Nigeria. The concept of language and language education, sustainable and biomedical translation were clarified. Language education and a sustainable biomedical translation was discussed. It was recommended amongst others that medical service providers should inculcate the services of language expert for effective service delivery.

Printmaking has long been in use, especially among indigenous art practitioners in Nigeria, it is also very popular among contemporary Nigerian artists who use it as a medium of aesthetic expression. The foundation for scholarship on printmaking was laid by notable scholars; however, writing from their cultural context, a sizable number of these scholars follow the perspectives that confined contemporary printmaking to the Western world and Asian countries. Considering the prolific production of printmaking in Nigeria, this study deconstructs the literature to understand the state of scholarship on printmaking, especially in contemporary Nigerian art. Data collected from published journal articles, books, exhibition catalogues, and Internet sources were subjected to critical analysis. The study concludes that printmaking in Nigeria is so unique that it would continue to attract the attention of art enthusiasts around the globe; hence, it deserves more attention from African art historical scholars.

The article investigates the prevalence of rape and sexual assaults in Ekiti State, Nigeria. It reviews some pieces of literature on rape from scholarly perspectives; rape in the bible and its effects were equally investigated. The causes and effects of rape were emphasized in work. The article examined expectations from the church being the moral bastion of society. It is a concern that rape has become cancer that has eaten deep into our contemporary society. There have been reported cases of rape in Ekiti state, which calls for this article. It is no doubt that some men have thrown morals into the bin and defiled women of all ages, but children are not left behind in this contemporary madness. Some men have slept with children far below their children's ages. The research shows that rape is not exclusive to the state under study; allegations of rape and molestation have come from different states in Nigeria using qualitative and interview approaches. The paper equally gives information on reported and cases of convicted culprits of rape in the state. Likewise, efforts of the State Government and the church to forestall rape were revealed in this work. Nevertheless, it was observed that despite the efforts of Ekiti State in curtailing rape in the state, it is still prevalent. However, this is due to the number of new cases reported daily. Consequently, the call for church intervention as the moral bastion of society to forestall rape is imperative at this juncture. It has been discovered in the work that cases of rape are underreported due to the stigma and shame associated with it. Ekiti state, just like every other state in Nigeria, is a patriarch in nature. Hence, men are always at an advantage in nearly everything. Therefore, the paper recommends that the church intensify efforts to enlighten society through radio, television evangelism, counselling, preaching and workshop on the danger of rape. Finally, rape victims should be given the moral and medical support needed for their healing from the physical, emotional and psychological traumas associated with rape.

This paper aims to identify the nature of the life of the Bedouin community in northern Israel and some of their customs and social behaviors, the Bedouin leadership systems, and the professions they undertake to secure their living requirements, most notably herding and agriculture. The Arab Bedouin of Israel and the Israeli-occupied West Bank have been subject to a series of human rights violations, including forced displacement, since the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948. They have been classified as a ‘security threat’ and branded as ‘squatters’ on state lands. Successive Israeli governments have sought to expropriate their land and concentrate them into townships. The Israeli authorities refuse to recognize them as an indigenous group and thereby withhold from them the full range of rights provided to indigenous people under international laws. Though forced displacements are not necessarily illegal, they are if they are arbitrary or discriminatory. Bedouin in Israel’s Negev desert live in some of the poorest conditions in Israel, deprived of basic rights, including the right to water, shelter and education. They live with the constant threat of eviction and home demolitions, under enormously stressful conditions that have a serious effect on their health and well-being.

Directing involves the art and craft of coordinating the artistic and non-artistic personnel in a production in order to creatively and effectively communicate to the audience the intended meaning of a play. Dramatists, actors, and theatre managers have all attempted to direct or manage the process of coordinating play production over the years, but it wasn't until 1874 that the Duke of Saxe Meiningen entered the picture and assumed official responsibility as a director in guiding the affairs of the stage business as we now know it. In this study, the directing style of South South Nigerian educational theater director Henry Leopold Bell-Gam is evaluated. Henry Leopold Bell-Gam directed plays on stage (land) and in the water, according to the study, which used the qualitative research methodology with a focus on the literary/analytical, historical, and sociological methods. The Laissez-Faire method is used by Henry Leopold Bell-Gam to direct his plays. He employs the laissez-faire method, which allows the actors to be at ease so that their greatest work may shine in a production. The study found that in the course of employing or performing his directorial responsibilities, he runs into a number of difficulties, including insecurity in the aquatic environment and scheduling conflicts. The study makes several recommendations, including the need for more research in the field of directing with regard to educational theatre directors in Nigerian universities, the need for scholars to consider Henry Leopold Bell-Gam's works as viable ones that will inspire further scholarly investigation, and the need for the government to encourage, support, and fund aquatic productions as a means of socio-cultural integration, tourism attraction, and economic boost, particularly for people.
导演涉及协调艺术和非艺术人员的艺术和工艺,以便创造性地和有效地向观众传达戏剧的预期意义。多年来,剧作家、演员和剧院经理都试图指导或管理协调戏剧制作的过程,但直到1874年,萨克斯·迈宁根公爵(Duke of Saxe Meiningen)才进入人们的视野,并承担起指导我们现在所知的舞台事务的导演的正式责任。本研究对南尼日利亚教育戏剧导演Henry Leopold Bell-Gam的导演风格进行评价。根据这项研究,亨利·利奥波德·贝尔甘导演了舞台(陆地)和水中的戏剧,该研究使用了定性研究方法,重点是文学/分析、历史和社会学方法。亨利·利奥波德·贝尔甘用自由放任的方法来指导他的戏剧。他采用了自由放任的方法,让演员们放松下来,这样他们最伟大的作品才能在演出中脱颖而出。研究发现,在聘用或履行导演职责的过程中,他遇到了一些困难,包括对水生环境的不安全感和调度冲突。该研究提出了一些建议,包括需要在尼日利亚大学教育戏剧导演的指导领域进行更多的研究,需要学者考虑亨利·利奥波德·贝尔·甘的作品作为可行的作品,将激发进一步的学术研究,以及政府需要鼓励、支持和资助水生作品,作为社会文化融合、旅游吸引力和经济增长的一种手段,特别是对人们。

La présente étude se propose, à travers une double approche empirico-descriptive et déductive, de montrer que le Cameroun à la fois une « colonie » productrice et consommatrice de la Première Guerre mondiale. À la faveur des enjeux géostratégiques qu’il représentait, ce territoire du Golfe de Guinée fut la matérialisation ostensible de l’exportation de la Grande Guerre européenne en Afrique, depuis les origines jusqu’aux conséquences. Bien plus, cet article aborde un aspect non moins important de cette guerre, mais oublié : son impact environnementale sur le Cameroun. Sur la base de témoignages oraux, du matériel de guerre serait enfoui dans certaines localités ayant fait l’objet de champs de bataille entre les forces alliées et l’armée allemande. Ainsi, cette étude fait – tout en ouvrant des pistes de recherche approfondies – un inventaire non exhaustif des sites susceptibles de subir les effets polluants liés cette guerre au Cameroun.

That Jesus is the Messiah is acclaimed and professed by Christians right from the early times. That he is the Messiah who has been expected right from the OT times could also be said to be common knowledge for many Christians. But what this statement actually means as well as its full implications are not clear to many people, Christians and non-Christians alike. This paper, therefore, sets out to explain how the OT messianic expectations are fulfilled in the Incarnation of Jesus, a term that encompasses Jesus’ earthly life, ministry, death and resurrection, i.e. the entire mystery of Christ’s redemptive work. The method employed in this work is historical-theological, augmented with the Historical Critical method, when necessary, in the analysis of pertinent biblical passages. The information is that the people of Israel in the OT were, in different epochs, always expecting a Messiah, a liberator to be sent by God. They associated this Messiah with the successive kings of the Davidic dynasty through the Oracle of Nathan in 2 Sam 7:12, on the one hand, and with other historical and messianic figures, on the other. But after the exile, during the last pre-Christian centuries of Palestinian Judaism, these expectations narrowed down to an individual liberator and ultimately to Jesus, in the NT, as is amply explained in many NT passages. The recommendation is for all Christians to recognize and cherish the depth of our Christian heritage in the OT and in the lives of the people of Israel, a depth which gloriously highlights God’s universal plan of salvation as one. All this would invariably lead Christians to the greater appreciation of their faith and its praxis as well as further enhance Jewish Christian relationship as one commonly founded on a single divinely instituted history of salvation. This work is also a very useful tool for all teachers and students of religion, as well as biblical scholars and researchers, in the pursuit of their various endeavours.
