METODOLOGI TRANSMISI KEILMUAN ISLAM KLASIK Upaya Reaktualisasi Metodologi Pengajaran

To preserve the past inheritance is a task for our next generation. Recorded inhistory, classic Muslims has bequeathed prosperity and glory. One of the examples iseducation. The progress of Muslim education is supported by many factors. One ofthem is teaching method. The good teaching method of course will produce generationwhich has a certain quality. Historically, teaching method of classic Muslim hasbrought the advance and fragrance toward Muslim in other countries' eye in the world.But, the past victory is just only a beautiful memory because the next generationcannot able to preserve classic culture. Teaching method becomes a problem since thatmethod does not have influence in developing personality and intellectual quality.Teaching method in institute of Muslim education still oriented on the conventionalmethod. The material is dominated by speech method or delivery system.The implication of that case will emerge a generation with linear, divergent andsystematic way of thinking. Whereas, now days is much needed convergent andcreative thinking. Looking back at this condition, the investigation of inheritance ofclassic teaching method should be done, so that can be re-actualization for institute ofMuslim education.Kata kunci : transmisi keilmuan islam klasik, reaktualisasi

This We Remember: Consuming Representation via the Web Posting of War Photographs

Consumers are increasingly searching for beautiful memories. Memory is not solely the work of the mind retrieving a “true” past. People represent their unique past to (re)construct their identity and seek social links with others who share the remembered events. Through visual analysis of the web posting of war photographs by Vietnam veterans, this paper explores how people consume representations in remembering, reconstructing identities and building a mnemonic community. The analysis suggests that individual remembering is nested within collective remembering. A conceptual framework viewing remembering as mediated action helps to explain how consumers use representations in remembering. This process is carried out not only by individuals but also by cultural institutions. American Vietnam veterans use consumer products including private photographs, movies, books, travel trips and the Internet as tools to assist in the on‐going process of remembering. They add their own voice into the social representation system to create representations that further express who they are and to connect with their community. The constructed memory shapes consumers' present. This in turn modifies their representation of their pasts which become involved in changing the larger social representation system.

Russians on Russian Music, 1880-1917: An Anthology by Stuart s> Campbell (review)

332 SEER, 83, 2, 2005 for the endangered Karner Blue butterflymight be praiseworthy,but which adds not much understanding to the function of butterflies in Nabokov's writings,this is one of the most interestingpartsof the whole collection.John M. Kopper's paper on 'the space of imagination that joins Darwin and Nabokov' (p. 229) is a superb discussion of the interaction between scientific theories and art in Nabokov's thinking and writing. Stephen H. Blackwell offersan equally fascinating examination of Nabokov's adaptation of Andrei Belyi'snotions of the metricaldesignsof poetry and its unintentionalpatterns, which leads him to outline Nabokov's 'poeticsof negative patterns'(p. 233). With Shapiro'sfine essay on the similaritiesof the methods of early Dutch paintersand Nabokov's art,the collection turnsto an area of Nabokov studies which has been given increasedyet not sufficientattention over the lastyears, namely the writer's interaction with the visual arts. This topic is further explored in the final essay in this section, Clarence Brown's excellent discussion of the function of the comic stripin Nabokov's construction of his fictionalworlds. The collection ends with Stephen Parker'sstock-takingof Nabokov studies today, a rathercomplex areathatseemsto have exploded over the lastdecade. Dmitri Nabokov is given the final word with his touching and beautiful memories of his parentsand the family'stime in Ithaca. Essays in this collection have been chosen so as to give a balanced representationof differenttrends and views in the constantly expanding area of Nabokov studies, while at the same time outlining new approaches to Nabokov's texts. The latter, however, could have been given more weight at the expense of those studies that cover very well-travelledground. That said, Shapirohas managed to bringtogetherquite disparateessaysand approaches into a coherent volume that traces Nabokov's development not only as a writerbut also as 'the last Renaissance man' with his ever-wideningrange of interests. Wotfson College, Oxford S. FRANK Campbell, Stuart (ed. and trans.). RussiansonRussianMusic, I88o-I9I7.- An Anthology.Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, New York and Melbourne, 2003. xvi + 267 pp. List of sources. Notes. Index. ?45.00: $69.95. VALUABLE anthologies are always worth extending, and this book makes a welcome continuation of Dr Campbell's earlier review of Russian musical criticism from the period I830-80 (SEER,73, 1995, 2, PP. 332-33). Although many of the institutionsthat were being establishedduring the earlierperiod were already up and running by i88o, many of the malicious disputes, jealousies and rivalries are to be found unabated in the decades before the Revolution. Indeed, one of the most difficult characters of the nineteenth century, Tsezar' Kiui, lived until I9I8; other majorsurvivorsfrom the earlier period were German Larosh (Herman Laroche) and, most important, Vladimir Stasovhimself,although,as the compilerconfesses,hiscontributions are relativelysparselyrepresentedhere, as his views were alreadywell known REVIEWS 333 (p. xii). This was a period when all the artsflourishedin their differentways, andwhen, with theincreasing'privatization'ofmusicalinstitutions,composers and performersenjoyed greater scope than previously. Though performers, like Fedor Shaliapin (Chaliapin), are little represented here, the growth of interestin certain composers, such as Chaikovskii,was exponential, and more space is given here than in the previous volume to composers and compositions , and less to questions of the organization and infrastructureof musical life. In other respects,the volume under review plays a comparable role to its predecessor, namely to bring to readers without Russian the major musical ideas of the period. As before, Campbell has performed musicians a most valuable service. Chapterone is devoted to Chaikovskiiwith reviewsof his Liturgyof StJohn Chrysostom,the ManfredSymphony (byKiui, in relativelybenign mode, and Larosh), the First, Fifth and Sixth Symphonies, and the operas Mazeppa, Pikovaia damaand Charodeika (thelatter,often considered Chaikovskii'sweakest essay in this genre, is given a long and farfrom dismissiveaccount by Larosh, who nonethelessfeels it degeneratesafterthe firstact). Chaptertwo consistsof essays on some of Rimskii-Korsakov's principal works: Snegurochka, Sadko, Kashchei bessmertnyi, Skazanie o nevidimom gradeKitezhe i deveFevronii and Zolotoi petushok. Chapter three is devoted to other composers of the former Balkirev circle, whilst the fourth is on composers of the Beliaev generation (for this purpose, Arenskii, Glazunov and Liadov). Beliaev himself adored the music of Glazunov, and here his work as a symphonist is discussedby Iurii Engel'. One of...

On the Reformulation of Optimization Problems in Which the Action Variables Are Not the Objective Function Arguments

There are many areas of economic analysis in which the objective function is not defined directly or most naturally in terms of the action or choice variables but in terms of variables which are consequences of the actions. For example production is a function of the capital stock, but the action or choice variable is the time stream of investment. If negative investment is feasible and not subject to a penalty then the optimal time pattern of capital stock may be determined and the proper investment stream derived from it. But in some problems the optimal capital stock may not be attainable by a feasible investment program. In these situations the analysis is more complex and it may be difficult to deduce anything about the optimal attainable capital stock pattern over time. Another example of this type of problem is consumer durable usage. [3] A consumer may desire the services of a durable good but may not have the option of renting the good (buying the service) and must purchase the good. The act of purchasing more or less commits him to consuming its services over a period of time. All consumption desires could be construed as being for stock variables such as being well fed, well read and having beautiful memories of experiences. The Lancaster model involves consumers desiring the qualities or characteristics of goods rather than the good themselves. In this type of problem when the action variables are substituted into the objective function, the mathematical structure becomes exceedingly cumbersome and complex and it is difficult to solve for the optimal action[2].

I'm gonna live fast, love hard, die young, and leave a beautiful memory. [Country and Western Song Title] The Health-Care System This is the era of the health-care system. Everyone, the politician, the administrator, the health professional, and recently even the physician, is concerned with its efficiency and effectiveness. It is generally agreed that access to the health-care system is too difficult for many Americans, particularly the poor and the near poor. Many believe that the quality of care provided by the system must be improved. Almost all believe that the cost of health care is too high and out . . .
