Its tale of suffering and the journey to redemption offered hope and a sense of possibility to people facing seemingly insurmountable evil. No other story in the Bible has fired the imaginations of African Americans quite like that of Exodus. In tracing the growth of Baptist churches from small outposts of radically democratic plain-folk religion in the mid-eighteenth century to conservative and culturally dominant institutions in the twentieth century, Harvey explores one of the most impressive evolutions of American religious and cultural history. He examines the relationship of broad social phenomena like progressivism and modernization to the development of southern religion, focusing on the clash between rural southern folk religious expression and models of spirituality drawn from northern Victorian standards. Harvey explores the parallels and divergences of black and white religious institutions as manifested through differences in worship styles, sacred music, and political agendas. Adopting a biracial and bicultural focus, Paul Harvey works to redefine southern religious history, and by extension southern culture, as the product of such interaction-the result of whites and blacks having drawn from and influenced each other even while remaining separate and distinct. Together, and separately, black and white Baptists created different but intertwined cultures that profoundly shaped the South.

The expression pattern was compared to glypican 3 (GPC3) and α-fetoprotein (AFP), two markers currently in use for the detection of yolk sac tumor. Immunohistochemistry was used to study HNF1β expression in a tissue microarray (TMA) of 601 testicular germ cell tumors including seminoma, embryonal carcinoma, yolk sac tumor, choriocarcinoma, teratoma, germ cell neoplasia in situ (GCNIS), and normal tissue. Due to its broad histologic diversity, the diagnosis may be challenging and additional tools are very helpful in the workup of germ cell tumors. Recently, it has been described in yolk sac tumor, which represents a common component in many non-seminomatous germ cell tumors. Furthermore, HNF1β is an established marker in the differential diagnosis of ovarian cancer and shows a distinct nuclear expression in the clear cell carcinoma subtype.

Résumé Bon nombre de femmes dans toutes les sociétés du monde souffrent étant victimes de la tradition et des pouvoirs patriarcaux. Of course, literature and the power of language have been established as viable tools to highlight the messages and worldview of authors who serve to expose the vices of our societies. We concluded by arguing that education plays a major role in the liberation of the masses. This study revealed that our two writers questioned the deplorable fate of women, the degrading state of their country as well as the awareness of the people to put an end to these powers which enslave the fatherland. On this, we have seen the denunciation of these retrograde powers as well as the proposal of our authors with regard to the freedom of women. Our work is based on religious and socio-political beliefs bearing on the central theme, namely the confinement of women which makes them perpetually in a state of dependence. An inventory of structures denouncing the oppression of the weaker sex was drawn up for our analysis. A critical study of the chosen works has been carried out. This study is framed by feminism and sociology of the Maghreb world. This work, which attempted to analyze the marginalization of the Maghreb woman, examined the pathetic fate of the fairer sex of the area, under the yoke of their silence and discussed the points of convergence and divergences in Tahar's Lowered Eyes Ben Jelloun and Shadow Sultana by Assia Djebar. Many women in all societies of the world suffer as victims of tradition and patriarchal powers. Hide your intentions not by closing up (with the risk of appearing secretive, and making people suspicious) but by talking endlessly about your desires and goals- just not your real ones. Use decoyed objects and desires and red herrings to throw people off the scent Keep friends for friendship, but work with the skilled and competent. The key to power, then, is the ability to judge who is best able to further your interests in all situations. Friends will say that they love your poetry, adore your music, envy your taste in clothes- maybe they mean it, often they do not. Since honesty rarely strengthens friendship, you may never know how a friend truly feels. If you have no enemies, find a way to make them In fact, you have more to fear from friends than from enemies. Law 2: Never put too much trust in friends, learn how to use enemiesīut hire a former enemy and he will be more loyal than a friend, because he has more to prove. Never take your position for granted and never let any favors you receive go to your head. When it comes to power, outshining the master is perhaps the worst mistake of all. Make your masters appear more brilliant than they are and you will attain the heights of power |
