Nikolai Mikhailovich Karamzin
Poor Liza
Karamzin, Nikolai Mikhailovich (1766 - 1826), is a famous Russian writer, a journalist
and a historian, the head of a literary school known as Russian sentimentalism. His first literary
experiences occurred in the beginning of 1780s and in 1791 he became a professional writer. He
was a publisher of the first Russian literary periodical, Moscow Journal, and his first novella,
Poor Lisa, was first published in this journal in 1792. Soon after, Karamzin’s other works,
including the collections, “Aglaya” and “Aonids,” appeared From 1801 Karamzin starts
publishing another literary periodical, The European Herald. He authored a number of
sentimental novellas, including Eugene and Julia, Natalia, the Boyar Daughter, Frol Silin,
followed by a large number of poems and his famous History of Russian State, whose eight
volumes appeared in 1816.
Karamzin was an innovator, a writer who was deeply concerned with the events of his
epoch. He strove to depict a real life by ridding of the cannons of classicism prevalent on the
literature of the 18th century. A son of an impoverished Siberian landowner, Karamzin was
educated in foreign private educational establishments, subsequently going through the military
service, starting his literary career only after he has retired from the military service. He got
acquainted with such literati as Nikolai Novikov, the head of the “Printing Company,” and with
the members of his literary circle. In 1789 Karamzin traveled all over the Western Europe; this
trip has served a material for his work The Letters of a Russian Traveler. Before this work, there
were not literary works in Russian literature which described so vividly and in detail the life and
customs of the Western European nations and western culture. Karamzin describes his meetings
with European writers and cultural activists, his visits to the museums and cultural and
educational institutions, opening Europe to a Russian reader. An important feature of The Letters
of a Russian Traveler is the description of the feelings of this “sentimental traveler;” the author
considers sentimentality an important quality which a true writer should have. However,
Karamzin’s sentimentality which was partially a result of his fears and non-acceptance of the
Great French Revolution, sometimes led him away from the reality and into the unrealistic,
imaginary world of sentimental feelings. At the end of this book, Karamzin outlines the program
of his future literary activity.
Karamzin’s literary heritage had a tremendous importance for the development of
Russian literary language, colloquial speech, and a bookish jargon. He liberated Russian
language from the archaisms and borrowings from the Old Church Slavonic and Latin which
were abundant in the Russian of those days, and introduced a large number of the neologisms,
including the new synonyms of the words which nev ...

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Kornel Makuszyński (1884–1953), born in Stryj [now Stryy, Ukraine], writer, journalist and drama critic, one of the most popular authors of children’s books, spent his youth in Lwów [now L’viv, Ukraine] where he went to grammar school and studied at the Philosophical Department of the Jan Kazimierz University. Before World War I, he worked as dramaturg at the Municipal Theatre in Lwów. During the war, Makuszyński and his first wife Emilia Bażeńska were deported to Russia. Released on his friends’ pledge, he returned home, worked for several months at the Municipal Theatre in Lwów, subsequently leaving the city for good. Till 1918, he lived in Kiev, was dramaturg at Stanisława Wysocka’s Polish Theatre and acted as President of the local Society of Writers and Journalists. While in Kiev, he wrote his first novels.
