‎Chronicon Carionis Latine expositum et auctum multis & ueteribus & recentibus Historijs,.....in Descriptionibus Regnorum et Gentium Antiquarum, et Narrationibus Rerum Ecclesiasticarum et Politicarum, Grecarum, Romanarum, Germnicarum et Aliarum ---- Melanchthon was born "Phillip Schwarzerdt," child of Georg and Barbara Schwarzerdt. In his day, it was common among scholars to Latinize or Greekize a name. "Schwarze Erde" (black earth) became in Greek: "Melan chthon." Melanchthon was a classicist and theologian and played a role in the Reformation, alongside people like Luther and Calvin. He was an educator at heart and one of the founders of modern education in Europe. He founded schools, designed curricula and training, and renewed education in Germany in numerous ways. He built a strongly humanist-oriented school system in the Lutheran world. Because of this fact, he was also called "the Educator of Germany"(Praeceptor Germaniae). The Groningen chronicler Abel Eppens was a student of Melanchthon. In 1530, he drafted the 28 points of the Confessio Augustana, which became the creed of all Lutherans in Germany. It was imposed by the Lutheran princes on their subjects, so that after the religious peace of Augsburg in 1555, one can speak of a single German Lutheran community. Two museums are dedicated to Melanchthon, namely the Melanchthon House, his residence in Wittenberg, and the Melanchthon House in his birthplace of Bretten. Because of his great influence on the school system and his ideas on education, several schools have been named after him.‎

La grande trasformazione in corso nella società contemporanea introduce nell'evoluzione della nostra specie una discontinuità qualitativa che richiede un salto di cultura e un mutamento delle categorie della conoscenza. Le scienze sociali sono parte di questo processo e al loro interno si è compiuto negli ultimi decenni un passaggio ancora solo in parte visibile, che ha già segnato la teoria e le pratiche conoscitive che la società applica a se stessa.

From the library of George M Foster. 1st edition.<br /><br />The Zapotecs were once one of the most dominant ethnic groups in the region now known as Oaxaca. The early Zapotecs were a sedentary group relying mostly on agricultural means to survive. They worshipped a pantheon of gods the foremost of which was Cosijo the rain god symbolized by the jaguar and the snake symbols common in Mesoamerican cultures. Religious rites sometimes included human sacrifice. Aside from the gods Zapotecs also worshipped their ancestors and emphasized the concept of death. The splendid city of Monte Alban was the Zapotecs' main cultural center the place in which their rich and fascinating civilization flourished for about 2000 years. Today Monte Alban is considered one of the most majestic cultural centers in all of Middle America. Monte Alban is a complex array of pyramids and platforms built on a mountain range overlooking the valleys. It was built in honor of the Zapotec gods and in celebration of the military victories of the Zapotec people. By 700 A.D. Monte Alban had become the capital of the Zapotec land and home to some 250000 people. The Zapotecs struggled against another mighty group the Mixtecs for control over their vast lands. By the 15th century both these groups faced another worthy adversary the Aztecs who were trying to dominate the trade routes of Chiapas and Guatemala. The Zapotecs managed to maintain political autonomy thanks mostly to their greatest king Cosijoeza. When the Spanish arrived however the whole region became subject to the their forces Today the Zapotecs are composed mostly of two groups those in the Southern mountains and those residing in the southern half of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec. Many elements of Zapotec culture are still ingrained in Oaxacan life influencing customs dress songs and literature. <br /><br />George McClelland Foster Jr born in Sioux Falls South Dakota on October 9 1913 died on May 18 2006 at his home in the hills above the campus of the University of California Berkeley where he served as a professor from 1953 to his retirement in 1979 when he became professor emeritus.
