This essay discusses the addition of value to individuals, groups, communities, and societies through the teaching-learning communities of universities. It begins by calling out the concept of human value. It continues by discussing the questions: What constitutes and counts as human value? Can human value be added to anyone? How is human value added at universities? It concludes by noting the significance of reputation in the context of value(s) which universities add to persons through their teaching-learning communities.

It includes some interesting materials sent to me by Mr. Mikael Parkvall of Stockholm University, including an abstract from a book by Charles Thierry-Mieg, Six semaines en Afrique [Six Weeks in Africa] Paris: J. Claye (1861) pp. 103-107, and a list of Lingua Franca words from Alexis-M. Gochet, La France coloniale illustrée [Colonial France Illustrated] Tours: A. Mame et fils (1888) pp. 74-75. I have included a facsimile of Thierry-Mieg's remarks, and translated them into English, along with comments. The lexical items from both have been incorporated into the Glossary. M. Emre Ozigci of the Turkish Embassy in Algiers has made some significant corrections to the glosses on Turkish words, and these also have been included. My thanks to both, as to the many others who have enriched previous editions.

The General Section is recommended to most readers interested in poplar literature, Judaic Studies, or the history of Jews in Arab lands. The Specialist Section is recommended to those who can read, or are learning, Arabic, and wish to have access to a chrestomathy of modern Judeo-Arabic texts.

Here are some barmitzvah addresses I gave. Since these were public, I include the name of the individual, but I do not include the date, in case he should not want that to be publicized. These ceremonies took place in Philadelphia, at Congregation Mikveh Israel unless otherwise indicated. In retrospect, I suppose that my main intent was to make these young people comfortable with their heritage, and encourage them to take a positive attitude to life. The talk on Symbolic Acts is a good generic example. Included is one Consecration ceremony for girls.

I have added English translations of the Hebrew texts that I sing which are flashed up on the screen, as well as other information. The background is a beautiful impressionist shot of the dais of the Recital Hall where I gave the lecture by university photographer Alan Magayne-Roshak.
