  • This study presents a new conceptualization of the history of Islamic astronomy. Islamic history is an embedded global cultural phenomenon and will be analyzed at different levels: a) the history of institutional aspects (observatories, including buildings), b) instruments, c) manuscripts, and d) scholars. This phenomenon will be analyzed as a multi-lingual phenomenon with Arabic as the language of sciences as a starting point. Although this is not a study of a geographical region in a narrow sense, it is a historical note on the entanglement of research written in Arabic, Persian and other languages and contextualized in a framework reaching geographically far beyond the confines of the Islamic world and being part of global history.

  • Philip Roth rejects the narrative unity and singularity of the traditional novel and creates instead a multi-levelled, fragmentary, and repetitive narrative. It is not easy to distinguish fact from fiction in The Plot Against America. As an entertaining and creative work of the postmodern historiographic metafiction, Philip Roth's The Plot Against America interrogates the existence of historically verifiable facts, the validity of authentic and official version of history, and reexamines the narrative conventions of history writing. The aim of this paper is to examine Roth's narrative experiment or 'thought experiment' and to explore the intention of creating alternative history in The Plot Against America. Roth does a 'thought experiment' in The Plot Against America. In this cautionary "what if" political fable, Roth hypothesizes that in 1940 aviation hero Charles Lindbergh, an ardent isolationist who was sympathetic to Hiltler, won the presidency. Jewish communities are stunned and terrified as America flirts with fascism and anti-semitism. Reimagining his children-with considerable fact mixed in with the fiction-Roth narrates an alternative history that has an unsettling plausibility. Roth has constructed a brilliantly telling and disturbing historical prism by which to refract the American psyche as it pertain to the discord of individual, race, history in The Plot Against America. Roth analyzes the life of individual in a historic space, the situation of anti-semitism in world of invisible order, racial conflict between black and white in world of visible order, and the darkest side of national power in this work. Roth's stories argue for the equality of various cultures grounded on the common notion of humanity, for an ethic of mutual respect, and for the peaceful resolution of conflicts.

  • The History of Mathematics (HOM) was integrated in teaching the Cartesian Coordinate Plane (CCP) to Grade Seven learners of Moonwalk National High School using Lesson Study. After the lesson was taught, there were three valuable issues emerged: (1) HOM is a Springboard and/or a Medium of Motivation in Teaching CCP; (2) The History of CCP Opened a Wider Perspective about Its Real-life Application in the Modern World (3) Integration of History Developed a Sense of Purpose and an Appreciation of Mathematics Among Learners. Feedbacks solicited from the learners showed that they have understanding of the importance of studying Mathematics after they learned the life and contributions of Rene Descartes to Mathematics. Hence, integration of history plays a vital role in developing positive attitudes among learners towards Math.

  • 20세기 중반부터 일던 포스트모더니즘의 영향으로 각 학문 영역에서도 기존의 틀을 과감하게 탈피하여 다양한 역사 서술 및 사회 연구에 대한 관심이 증대되었으며, 구술사 연구 방법론은 이에 새로운 방법론적 대안으로서 주목을 받기 시작하였다. 또한 최근 들어 구술사 방법론으로 생산된 다양한 주제영역에 걸친 구술기록은 l차 사료로서의 가지로 인하여 기록학계를 포함한 많은 학계에서도 큰 반향을 불러일으키고 있다. 현재 구술기록이 갖는 다양한 쟁점들과 기록이 함유하여야 할 다양한 가치 및 조건에 대한 논의를 구술기록 자체가 모두 해소할 수 있는 단계까지는 다다르지 않았다. 하지만 기록이 절대적으로 부족하여 근현대 시기 역사의 총체적 재구성 및 각종 연구, 과거사 정리 등에 어려움을 겪고 있는 우리나라의 경우 그 특수한 상황에서의 필요성으로 인하여 새로운 기록의 발굴, 역사의 재해석이라는 맥락에서 구술기록의 수집과 관리는 더욱 활발해지고 있다. 또한 이에 발맞춰 통합적인 구술 아카이브 설립의 움직임 역시 활발해지고 있는 추세이다. 이 글은 이처럼 최근 많은 관심을 불러일으키고 있는 구술기록에 대하여 기록학적 관점에서 효율적인 수집 개발을 도울 수 있는 아카이브 차원의 수집정책이 부재하다는 문제의식을 가지고 출발 하였다. 이에 구술기록이 일반적인 수집물과는 다른 특성 및 수집 방식에 주목하여, 그간 기록학계에서 진행되었던 수집정책에 대한 연구를 발전시켜 구술기록만을 위한 새로운 수집정책 구성요소를 도출하고자 하였다. 이는 크게 기관의 사명 및 수집 목적 진술 부분, 수집 제반에 대한 정책 부분, 수집물 유지 및 활용에 대한 정의 부분, 수집 개발을 위한 지침 부분으로 나눌 수 있다. 또한 여기에 구술기록의 수집에 있어서 현실적으로 고려되어야 하는 부분을 구체화시켜 제언하고자 하였다.

  • Since physical therapy was first introduced in Korea, it has been 50 years past and Korean physical therapy has made rapid progress. However, history or educational system of Korean physical therapy is still not known worldwide. Now, for Korean physical therapy to go beyond Asia and leap toward the world, endless studies, efforts and publicity are required. Korean physical therapy first began by missionaries dispatched from other countries like America and Canada with Korean War, which occurred in 1950. After the War, Korean Physical Therapy is developed very fast. Korean Physical Therapy Association was founded in October 1, 1965 and many physical therapist were discharged. Korea became a full member of World Confederation of Physical Therapy(WCPT) in 1974, and held the 2nd Asia Pacific Confederation of Physical Therapy assembly in 1984 and WCPT assembly in 2005. Today, in 2010, licensed physical therapists are about 35,000 and there are physical therapy departments in 74 universities, and 17 universities have master's or doctor's degree courses. And there are many academic journals(more than 10) related to physical therapy that are published. Many Korean physical therapists are working at various countries like America or Australia, and are acknowledged with excellent treatment technology and academic studies. This thesis aims to shed new light to the history and educational system reorganization of Korean physical therapy and introduce it to the world, and establish the historical foundation to develop Korean physical therapy into the international level.
