Abstract:
If you have to explain a proverb, it is too esoteric for popular use; but if it is too mundane and obvious, it will not circulate or gain notoriety. It should be witty and rhythmic but obscure; it should attract new meanings and move among various contexts and genres, taken up by listeners who recirculate it in new media to new audiences. Effective proverbs use indirection as a performance strategy, provoking new interpretations and lubricating social circulation across disparate spaces (Yankah).

Abstract:
AbstractWork hard, work smart, make the right connections, get the right education, invest wisely – yet after doing all the supposedly right things, success remains elusive to many. For a few, however, who may or may not have done exactly these things, success seems to come effortlessly. Some are very fortunate and others not so much. The lack of correspondence between exertion and success or work and good fortune is an issue that confronts lay persons and professionals alike. Focusing on Yoruba people, I discursively present lay Yoruba persons’ apprehension and common-sense view of this conun

The article is devoted to the attitude to various numbers among Arabs and their reflection on the issue in national and Arabic folklore. The cross-cultural oral lore dedicated to numerals is manifested in a pecular way in Arab world, mixing both pre-Islam expressions and those inherited after the Prophet. Veneration or fear of certain numbers, respect or disapproval of others is certainly associated with religious or everyday views, centuries-old traditions, mundane usages and experience of peoples, who, in turn, live in certain regions with various natural conditions, cultural and ethnic envi

Abstract:
The first Croatian phraseological dictionary, compiled in German under the title Verschiedene sprichwörtliche Redensarten was published as a part of the conversational manual accompanying the last published grammar of the Kajkavian literary language, Grammatik der kroatischen Mundart. Its author, Ignac Kristijanović, had accomplished this pioneering undertaking against the contemporary practice, listing the idioms as separate phraseological units in form of a small phraseological dictionary, and not within the dictionary entries of the general dictionary.

Abstract:
Christianity was the religion of spirit (and freedom), and critiqued Islam as a religion of flesh (and slavery); later, Christianity was the religion of reason, and critiqued Islam as the religion of fideism; later still, Christianity was the religion of the critique of religion, and critiqued Islam as the most atavistic of religions. Even now, when the West has critiqued its own Chris- tianity enough to be properly secular (because free, rational, and critical), it continues to critique Islam for being not secular enough.

Abstract:
Western notions of authors’ Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs), as expressed within copyright law, maintain a potentially fraught relationship with a range of philosophical and theoretical positions on writing and authorship that have developed within contemporary Western thinking. For Roland Barthes, authorship is compromised, de-identified and multiplied by the very nature of writing: ‘Writing is that neutral, composite, oblique space where our subject slips away, the negative where all identity is lost, starting with the very identity of the body writing’ (142).

This chapter shows critique among non-intellectuals, as practised in an outstanding peace movement in history—the ḳhudāī ḳhidmatgār (servants of God), led by Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan. It discusses the role of mosques, reference to the Qurʾān, and employment of ṣabr (perseverance) in the pursuit of nonviolent struggle against the British colonialism. The Pathans in the northwestern part of contemporary Pakistan, where ḳhudāī ḳhidmatgār was based, have been depicted as anything but intellectual and critical. The chapter concludes with everyday critique by delineating three proverbs. While the fir

Abstract:
Hayim Nahman Bialik, the great modernist Hebrew poet, is purported to have compared learning Hebrew through translation to kissing a woman through a veil. Travels in Translation, Ken Frieden’s marvelous, creative, and erudite book on the signal role played by heretofore neglected Hebrew and Yiddish “translations” of sea journeys—and their shipwrecks—in the origins of modern Hebrew literary history, proves the master wrong. These works, both formal translations from one written text into another and informal “translations” or adaptations of oral material into a new, written form, are a full-fle
