Engineering the Victory March Bangladesh Liberation War 1971

Engineering the Victory March Bangladesh Liberation War 1971
Engineering the Victory March: Bangladesh Liberation War 1971 by Brigadier R.B. Singh
English | October 5, 2022 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0BHLN6RSB | 112 pages | EPUB | 2.07 Mb
Engineering the Victory March, authored by Brigadier R.B. Singh, is an invaluable contribution to filling the void of bringing on record the contribution made by the Sappers (and the 235 Army Engineer Regiment in particular) during the Libera-tion War of Bangladesh in 1971. It is a collection of first-hand accounts by the Sappers holding various critical appointments during the 1971 war. Pub-lished for the first time and narrated with disarming candour and honesty, the book highlights their achievements and how they helped speed up the operation and wind it up in fourteen days. He has done well to briefly trace the political background, the overall strat-egy, the preparation for the battle at the theatre level, the personalities involved, the implementation stage and the rea-sons for the overall success. Against this backdrop, he has covered in great detail the performance of his Regiment, i.e. the 235 Army Engineer Regiment. In the author's narration, one comes across emotional traces of his involvement with the men and the officers of the unit. It makes the writing more relatable for lay people not initiated in the art of soldiering. A compelling read for the young and the old alike.

Engaging Humor

Engaging Humor
Engaging Humor By Elliott Oring
2003 | 224 Pages | ISBN: 0252027868 | PDF | 3 MB
In Engaging Humor, Elliott Oring asks essential questions concerning humorous expression in contemporary society, examining how humor works, why it is employed, and what its messages might be. This provocative book is filled with examples of jokes and riddles that reveal humor to be a meaningful--even significant--form of expression. Oring scrutinizes classic Jewish jokes, frontier humor, racist cartoons, and contemporary joke cycles. He provides alternate ways of thinking about humorous expressions by examining their contexts--not just their contents. Arguing that incongruity and absurdity are key elements of humor, Oring also asserts that humor is a form of play and that playing with ideas does not require us to endorse them. Analyzed contextually and comparatively, humorous expressions emerge as forms of human communication whose implications are startling, engaging, and profound. Engaging Humor explores Freud's theory that every thought contains a joke. Oring suggests that racist humor is not rooted in repression and offers a new perspective on other forms of humor seemingly based on hatred, including the recent blonde joke cycle. Oring also addresses the use of jokes as commentaries on the conversations in which they are embedded and considers the similarities in the humorous traditions of the United States, Australia, and Israel--each formed through colonization in modern times.
