Abstract:
Being colonized by France, Cocochina (the South of Vietnam) was the region where Western literature was introduced into earlier than the North. Truong Minh Ky was considered the first translator of Western literature in Vietnam. His earliest works of translation appeared in 1884. By the early 20th century, introduced to Vietnamese readers were Western literary works not only of French origin but also of British, American and Russian origins; not only poetry, prose but also drama. In the late 19th century, many writers such as Truong Vinh Ky, Huynh Tinh Cua were interested in Chinese literature

Abstract:
The consequences of climate change have a significant impact on all aspects of planetary and human life, including mental health, necessitating attention across healthcare provision and training. We may assume that drama therapists agree with prevailing scientific opinion on climate change regarding its detrimental effects on human health and well-being but do not have empirical data to support this claim. The purpose of this study was to identify how North American drama therapists perceive climate change. A secondary aim was to compare these findings to a publicly available national (US) dat

In the 1950s and 1960s, American theater gradually diversified. Following the impact of the Absurdist theater on American realism and expressionism, American theater also moved from modern theater to exploration of postmodern theater. The experimental theater on Broadway and Broadway posed a challenge to traditional American theater. Experimental drama begins to weaken the story and script in terms of content, and instead invests a large amount of artistic creativity in formal expression. By weakening the script, it emphasizes the relationship between observation and performance, sensory perce

It begins by examining the country-level forces associated with cross-national abortion rates. Neither legislation nor public abortion disapproval is significantly associated with rates. Rather, economic and educational development and gender equality are critical for decreasing abortion rates by limiting unintended pregnancies. From there, the chapter examines the key characteristics associated with women’s abortion decisions in a set of economically, politically, and religiously

Building on ideas of importation as a process of assimilation with the national market, this chapter considers how, for Sky Atlantic, interaction between transnational and national industrial spheres has not simply served as a means of acquiring content, but has itself formed a key brand narrative.

The answers are central to improving statistical capacity. Nonetheless, NSOs have not developed systematic measurement instruments to identify them. This pioneering publication addresses this gap.

Abstract:
A fundamental responsibility of the National Park Service (NPS) is to ensure that park resources are preserved, protected, and managed in consideration of the resources themselves and for the benefit and enjoyment by the public. Through the inventory, monitoring, and study of park resources, we gain a greater understanding of the scope, significance, distribution, and management issues associated with these resources and their use. This baseline of natural resource information is available to inform park managers, scientists, stakeholders, and the public about the conditions of these resources
