This paper was first published in the International Journal of Narrative Therapy and Community Work In this paper we have been interested to engage with some not so commonly asked questions about feminism, therapy and narrative ideas. So we asked a number of therapists who are engaged with narrative ideas some questions about what feminism means to them, how it influences their work and what feminist issues they are currently grappling with. What followed was an invigorating and challenging process. Many of the people we approached expressed that they wished they could spend more time thinking about these sorts of questions. Some people spoke of regret that these sorts of conversations are not more common. In response, we would like to invite all readers to become involved in an ongoing project around these issues. In future editions of the International Journal of Narrative Therapy and Community Work we will be organising a regular column on the theme ‘feminism, therapy and narrative ideas’. At the end of this piece we have listed a number of different themes about which we would love to hear from practitioners. We hope that the following questions and answers will spark your imagination and that you will then write to us with your thoughts and reflections.

Trees in the garden: Interaction between the wild and agricultural domains in practice among the Moru of the southern Sudan
R.W. Sharland Roger W. Sharland recently completed his Ph.D. at the University of Reading, Agricultural Extension and Rural Development Department, UK. After more than ten years of work in the southern Sudan, he is currently based in Kenya. The Moru people live in the Mundri district of western Equatoria province, of southern Sudan, which is flat, undulating, open woodland savannah with low to moderate relief and narrow incised streamlines. The rains are medium length, most falling in five to six humid months. The 1200 mm and 1300 mm isohyets pass through the Moru area, but the outstanding feature of the rainfall, which has considerable agricultural significance, is its marked variability and unpredictability from one year to the next. The country is now disrupted by civil war, but as this study relates to conditions of peace, the economic situation is described as such. The Moru people are largely subsistence farmers. They depend on rain-fed agriculture, supplemented by hunting and gathering. The staple crop is sorghum, which is broadcast in association with sesame, cowpeas, bulrush millet and finger millet. The mixtures are not random but are relatively standardized into specific field types (Sharland, 1989). A named field type has recognized ecological requirements, timings of activities and crop mixes thus representing the key management unit of the agricultural system (Schlippe, 1956). There are three major and a number of minor sorghum-based field types, and a number of newer ones based on New World crops, which are now important in the total food system. Risk is spread by diversifying and mixing both the crops and varieties of each crop grown.

Oh You Hindu Awake !

INTRODUCTION
Regarding the religion referred to as `Hinduism', JAWAHARLAL NEHRU said in his "THE DISCOVERY OF INDIA" (Page 37):
"HINDUISM as a faith is vague, amorphous, many sided, all things to all men. It is hardly possible to define it, or indeed to say definitely whether it is a religion or not, in the usual sense of the word. In its present form, and even in the past, it embraces many beliefs and practices, from the highest to the lowest, often opposed to or contradicting each other."
Hinduism is better known as Brahmanism, since the word `Hindu' is of Islamicate Persian origin. There were essentially 2 types of faith in ancient India. Firstly, those which accepted the Vedas and superiority of the Brahmin caste (these are referred to as `astika' or orthodox) and consist of 6 schools. These are collectively referred to in ancient inscriptions as `Brahmana', which is rendered as `Brahmanism'. This category includes Vaishnavas, Vedists (`vaidikas'), Vedantists, etc. Then those who opposed casteism and the Vedas; these are referred to as `Sramana' or `nasika' (heretic). This last category includes Buddhists, Jains, Shaivas, Tantrics, Atheists (Carvaks), etc. During the course of history, the `nastikas' (Charbak) have been almost wholly exterminated from India by systematic persecution at the hands of Brahmanists.

Africa Today - Volume 50, Number 3, Spring 2004, pp. 113-138
Indiana University Press

Abstract
This paper provides a linguistic analysis of depictions of female characters in selected West African fiction with a view to illustrating the role language plays in overtly and covertly conveying sexist language and ideology. Unequal representation of the genders by male and female writers is noted. Sexist language appears to be more frequently employed in female writers' works, while a covert chauvinistic ideology is more evident in male writers' works. Asymmetries in equivalent gender-specific terms and other linguistic devices are demonstrably revealing of societal gender inequities that tend to favor males. Whether innocent or purposeful, these devices play a vital role in creating perspective. As demonstrated, West African females are simultaneously demeaned and celebrated in the literature.
