The many adventures of the "epic" in modern times are fascinating topics in themselves. The Romantics claimed that every self-respecting nation should, at some time, have had one and they set out to reconstruct these epics for political as well as cultural reasons. Such epics represented earlier stages in the development of nation-states and in this modern world they were, for a long time, hard to appreciate. The introduction of tape recorders, however, brought the epic back in the limelight. It became fashionable for scholars to record long oral narratives, and to present them as long written poems that reflected deeply ingrained ideas. Because of this technology, the idea of the epic was revitalized. This volume presents critical analyses of epics in Sub-Saharan Africa, the former Soviet Union, South-East Asia, Medieval Europe, and America and discusses the process of revitalization, sometimes even invention, of epics in particular historical, political, and academic contexts. Jan Jansen is a member of the Department of Anthropology of the University of Leiden, Netherlands. Henk M.J. Maier is professor in the Department of Languages and Cultures of Southeast Asia and Oceania of the University of Leiden, Netherlands.

Here are some truly fun and convenient kids' activities with the emphasis on saving money by focusing on easy creative kids activities at home. And since they are mostly 'natural' you'll be using the free resources provided abundantly by Nature (and your pantry). I have a unique interest and expertise in finding fun kids activities at home. For most grandfathers having grand children means a time of just enjoying the occasional visit. Not the case when I became a full time live-in grandfather to my newborn granddaughter. In the end, at my own house, I spent more quality time with her than even most Dads do in a lifetime. This meant remembering, and finding, new and fun activities to share. This time sharing activities from the day after she was born to a schoolgirl nudging teenager years, became one of the best times of my life. And the activities we shared helped to make it so.
