Vanishs Ancient Culture
22 Mei 2008 | | |
n the world there's only one nations having culture, mores and linguistic multifarious that is Indonesia “country 1001 islands”. if you observed, almost in all states in world only had 1 traditional clothes and vernacular that is a few, but if here almost every island has traditional clothes, even is every island to have ethnical different terms having ancient culture. Until now variety of the culture there are still, even would continuously increase other cultures because this country has a real typically, that is “plagiat” or faker. All cultures from other country is adopted here, and little by little achene shifts culture in this country. This nation assumes local culture like “wayang” or puppets, “gamelan”, and traditional dances have been ancient and old fashion. They conceitedly receives foreign culture like salsa dance, capuelera and other as "new toys" which must be developed and assumed to be very modern. Though the foreign culture for its country of origin is also assumed ancient mores, but the difference if in other country still be developed, even is popularized to countrys which the nation unable to esteem, even not proud with its culture like beloved country of Indonesia.
For example, in public road in European still many "street musician" what brings apply their traditional music equipments, possibility that because they are real actor, so that difficult to forget traditional masterpieces of their nation. While in this republic countries, young children almost always refrains from listening oscillation of traditional musics. As in Junior High School 6 Yogyakarta when I still at school over there, music art teacher always wish to teach way is playing traditional music equipments to their students, minimum tries feels once plays it, because that moment of my friends am including myself lazy if it is ordered plays ancient castanets. While now in that school, had not seems to be again equipments of ancient music, so that students now will not have experience is trying that historic music equipments, how will feel sees is just have never.
There is sentence "big nation is nation esteeming his own swan song", hopefully this sentence not only becomes discourses that is of no use, but in the future can be realized by our own nation.
Did Steve Harvey copy the book title Act Like A Lady Think Like A Man
and theme from an earlier book?
Book with same title & theme copyrighted and published by Sharon P. Carson in 2003
CHICAGO, IL – Sharon P. Carson the author of the original title: Act Like A Lady –Think Like A Man, watched the February 27th episode of the Ophra show on which Steve Harvey was promoting his book of the same title. She was hoping that Steve would reveal to Oprah where he got the title and the theme for the book. It just seemed odd to her that his book had the same title and theme as her book that was copy written in 2003.
Upon subsequently purchasing the book, she found some interesting parallels and realized that it is not unusual for a high profiled person to take a great title and theme, rewrite a book and use their celebrity status to sell it. This she says happens too often to the unsung poets, authors and entrepreneurs of the world.
Steve wrote in his book that his hope was to “empower you with a wide-open look into the minds of men”. Sharon P. Carson wrote in her book in 2003 that her hope was for women to gain some insight into how men think in terms of relationships. Sharon also noted that in chapter 8 of Steve Harvey’s book titled “Why Men Cheat” he came to the same conclusion that she did in chapter 37 of her book, titled “Why would a man cheat”, and the answer was, “because they can”.
Sharon actively promoted her book before the release in January 2009 of Steve Harvey’s book, and would not like to see her promotion efforts hindered. She feels that her book has much to offer from a woman’s perspective and seeks to empower women to practice self love and tough love in relationships.
Before the publication of Steve Harvey’s book of the same title, Sharon bought the domain name: www.actlikealadythinklikeaman.com from which she has been selling her book. She has also held seminars with women at a Chicago University in promotion of her book, and can be viewed on the following youtube clip as she was being interviewed on a cable television program about her book in 2007 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxVVQX15X2Y.
Mindful of all the self - published poets and authors who have a hard time finding publishers for their works, Sharon is currently consulting with attorneys regarding her options, and hopes that her book with the first and original title of Act Like A Lady Think Like A Man will finally receive the recognition it deserves for the wisdom, encouragement, and empowerment that it provides to women.
