Hence, all the arts associated with the text - copying, conserving, and decorating - acquired increasing prestige.

7 Major Cultural Shifts The Coronavirus Crisis Should Make Happen
THEFEDERALIST.COM -- The COVID-19 social stress test is exposing many Americans' lack of responsibility for their lives. Here are 7 long-term positive steps it could inspire. #1: Education. Parents are seeing what exactly their kids do all day. Some will discover that a layperson can do the job of a credentialed teacher in half the time and that learning outside the default is more refreshing, less stressful, less propagandistic [and without negative peer-pressure]. Higher education's bubble will likely finally pop. As Ben Domenech notes "What parent would be willing to plunk down a vast sum of cash given the damage to their portfolio and their livelihood?" Consequently more parents may detach from calcified education systems that often sponsor open hostility to them. #6: Learning How to Live through Deprivation. Let's face it: Most of us ...

Think of Ismaili Digest as the Front Page of all the best Ismaili websites! Ismaili Digest automatically and continuously brings together all new articles, photos, videos, etc. from Ismaili websites -- like The Ismaili, Simerg, IIS, NanoWisdoms, AKDN, Ismailimail, etc. -- so you can see them all at once. Direct links to over 15,000 web-pages from the best Ismaili websites already available. Ismaili Digest saves you (and those who are not tech savvy, such as seniors) the effort of having to visit them one by one to keep up to date, or have your inbox cluttered with emails from each of them when they publish new content. In a busy world, our sense of belonging to our community sometimes tends to wither and fade (particularly for isolated Jamati members). We hope Ismaili Digest's simplicity and comprehensiveness will help you feel connected as well as feel the local and global pulse of the community. Like many other non-commercial, public-service thematic website aggregators, Ismaili Digest is just a thematic aggregator. We publish short 50-60 word digests of all their content and provide direct links to their original pages saving you time, extra page loads and clicks. For the website publishers, direct links ensure they'll get the maximum number of potential visitors reaching their content so their hard work gets the maximum exposure. Also featured are other important articles, research and opinions relevant to the community's well being, intellectual growth, best practises and administration. And all served with a drop of humour as well, because "we are a community that welcomes the smile!" Ismaili Digest is not associated with any private Ismaili website, whether aggregated by Ismaili Digest or not. All websites Ismaili Digest aggregates are independent websites run by their individual owners and we are not responsible for content they publish. |
