Kulmin hu dilettant tal-festi reliġjużi, speċjalment dawk ta' ġewwa, żgur li jaf x'inhi ANTIFONA -hija dik il-biċċa mużika mhux daqstant twila, imma ħafna mistennija, li tindaqq bilvuċijiet u orkestra mdaqqsa waqt iċ-ċelebrezzjonijiet liturġiċi fil-ġranet tad-tridu kif ukoll f'lejlet u nhar il-festa, speċjalment waqt id-dħul tal-vara titulari wara l-puċissjoni. 'Antifona' bil-Griek tfisser silta sagra qasira, aktarx meħuda mill-Bibbja, reċitata jew kantata, waqt funzjonijiet liturġiċi u l-Ufiċċju Divin. Dan il-versett ta' talb jingħad qabel is-salm u jinbidel skont il-festa li tkun. Fl-antik, ilkant kien ikun fl-istil Gregorjan 1 , iżda maż-żmien bdew jimmużikawha fi stili aktar kontemporanji. Antifoni f'ġieħ San Ġiljan miktubin minn kompożituri Maltin li nafu s'issa bihom huma erbgħa:
Marginaal: Unfinished Business
1997
An introductory note to this special journal issue (see abstracts of related articles) laments the decline in interest in sociology in general & organizational sociology in particular since the 1960s. It is argued that sociology has suffered because it has not yet learned to cope with three forces determining the success of other scientific disciplines: (1) rapid advances in the natural & informational sciences; (2) emphasis on the study of pragmatic, potentially lucrative fields; & (3) the expanding role of amusements & diversions. Sociology is not in danger of dying out, but is likely to lose more ground in the future. 2 References. M. Meeks

Russell remains famous as a logician, a metaphysician, and as a philosopher of mathematics, but in his own day he was also notorious for his social and political opinions. He wrote an immense amount about practical ethics-women's rights, marriage and morals, war and peace, and the vexed question of whether socialists should smoke good cigars. (They should.) And unlike present-day practical ethicists (with a few notable exceptions such as Peter Singer) he was widely read by the nonphilosophical public. (See for instance Phillips 2013, which details Russell's successes as a popular moralist in the 1950s.) But though Russell was famous as a moralist and famous as a philosopher, he does not have much of a reputation as a moral philosopher in the more technical sense of the term. Until very recently, his contributions to what is nowadays known as ethical theory-meta-ethics (the nature and justification, if any, of moral judgments) and normative ethics (what makes right acts right etc)were either unknown, disregarded or dismissed as unoriginal. Key texts on the history of twentieth century ethics-Warnock's Ethics Since 1900 (1978), Urmson's The Emotivist Theory of Ethics (1968), Milller's Contemporary Metaethics: an Introduction (2013) and Schroeder's Non-Cognitivism in Ethics (2010)-say nothing, or next to nothing, about Russell, at least in his capacity as a moral philosopher. It is only very recently-in the last fifteen years or so-that ethical theorists have begun to pay attention to him. (See Pigden 2003, 2007 and Potter 2006, though L.W. Aiken 1963 anticipated Potter and Pigden by about forty years.) Perhaps Russell would not have repined, since he professed himself dissatisfied with what he had said "on the philosophical basis of ethics" (RoE: 165/Papers 11: 310). But since he took an equally dim view of what he had read on that topic, the fact that he did not think much of his own 1.

Il-Gżirjani żgur li jafu bil-ġrajja mirakoluża tal-Madonna tal-Ġebla. Iżda forsi mhux kulħadd jaf eżatt kif twieled dal-innu f'ġieħha u min hu l-awtur u l-kompożitur li mmużikah.

Mro. Antonio Miruzzi (1867-1944) : hajtu, hidmietu, xogholijietu
s.n., 2017
Għal dawn l-aħħar erba' sekli pajjiżna dejjem ipproduċa mużiċisti, kantanti, kompożituri, u diretturi ta' kwalità li jħabbtuha sewwa mal-aqwa mustaċċuni barranin. Fost dawn it-talin insibu lis-Surmast Antonio Miruzzi li għamel isem sabiħ għalih kemm f'Malta kif ukoll barra minn xtutna. Kif inhu xieraq, matul din is-sena, ħafna baned Maltin u Għawdxin qed jiċċelebraw il-150 anniversarju mit-twelid tiegħu, speċjalment dawk il-ħafna baned li kellhom ix-xorti li jdoqqu taħt il-bakketta tiegħu. Għaldaqstant, dan l-artiklu isellem il-memorja ta' bniedem li ddedika ħajtu kollha għall-arti tant sabiħa tal-mużika li hi r-ras tal-Belle Arti.
