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.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
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.
2. TONES
Harmony is two or more Tones being played in
unison. Melody is s series of one notes.
Harmony is vertical, Melody is Horizonal.
If the Melody that an istrument plays is the same
as the melody that the Singer sings we call this
monophony.
If there is two melodies, we call this polyphony.
If there is a chord being played inwich the note
being sung is part of the scale of the chord this is
Homonphony.
3. KEYS
“Keys” have a surname as well as a fist name. d: =
Dminor, D: = Dmajor. Move the major 3rd to a minor
third to switch between the two.
Major or minor They are not the same.
Do Mi So, Do Me So
“Keys” have relatives. i.e. the relative minor or the
Paralele Minor.
The Paralel has the same Root, and the same
Signature.
The Relative has the same Scale, and is 3 half steps
lower. It is the most harmonic.
SI
♯=
D
O
6. MUSICAL NOTES IN SINGING
Two types of solfedge, stationary or movable
do, we will use movable do.
DO RE MI FA SOL LA TI DO
If we are in the Key of C DO is C
C D E F G A B
a: uses the same scale but A is DO
and B is raise a half step to B#
If we are in G DO is G
G A B C D E F#
e: uses the same scale but E is DO and
D is raise a half step to D#
8. SCALES
A Scale has two tetra chords. Tonic and Dominant.
The first on is Whole Step, Whole Step, Half Step
The Second is W, W, W H.
Only the Notes of the scale in that Key are Chord Tones.
Others are called Non-Chord Tones.
You just fallow the series to find the Chord Tones in any Key.
Like this
Root 2nd

11. INTERVALS
Movement Intervals of a 5th
are remembered by the acrostic “Father
Charles Goes Down And Ends Battle.” And its reverse.
Intervals are the distance between two notes.
The “Tonic” note is always the bottom note of a triad in root position.

15. KEY SIGNATURES
A key signature is a series of sharp or flat symbols placed on the staff,
that are to be consistently played one semitone higher or lower than the
equivalent natural notes unless otherwise altered with an accidental.
Key signatures are generally written immediately after the clef at the
beginning of a line of musical notation, although they can appear in other
parts of a score, notably after a double barline.
A key signature will have either sharps or flats, but there will not be any
key signatures with both.
To determine the key based on the key signature:
If the key signature has sharps, look at the position of the last sharp and raise it by
a half-step to get the key. For example, if the last sharp is C, raise it a half step which
is D, the key is D major.
When the key signature has flats, simply look at the second to the last flat and you
get the key. So for example A flat is the second to the last flat sign in the key signature,
this means the music is in A flat major.
The exception to this rule is F major because it only has one flat and C
major because it has no flats or sharps.
1. 2. 3. 4 . 5. 6. 7.
16. The Basic Chord Type is Called the Triad, and is made by
starting at the tonic, then Go Up a Major Third (2 steps, 4 half
steps) and then a minor Third (1.5 steps, or 3 half steps) the
1rst,3rd
and 5th
.
To make a Dominant Chord a Dominant
Seventh add the note that is 1.5 steps or a
minor third above the 5th
17. V V6 V 42
The Triad Positions, if it were a seventh chord there would be
one more available. And written like the followings
Root V7
2nd inv V 65 3rd inv V43 4th inv V2

19. DYNAMICS
Dynamics refers to the volume of a note/piece/sound
The two basic dynamic indications in music are:
p or piano, meaning "soft"
f or forte, meaning "loud"
More subtle degrees of loudness or softness are indicated by:
mp, standing for mezzo-piano, meaning "moderately soft"
mf, standing for mezzo-forte, meaning "moderately loud“
pp “pianissimo” meaning “very soft”
ff “fortissimo” meaning “very loud”
Two Italian words are used to show gradual changes in volume. Crescendo,
abbreviated cresc., translates as "gradually becoming louder", and diminuendo,
abbreviated dim., means "gradually becoming softer". The
alternate decrescendo, abbreviated to decresc., also means "gradually becoming
softer“.
20. TEMPO
Tempo (Italian for time) is the speed/pace of a given piece.
The tempo of a piece will typically be written at the start of a piece of
music, and is usually indicated in beats per minute (BPM). This means
that a particular note value (for example, a quarter note or crotchet) is
specified as the beat, and the marking indicates that a certain number of
these beats must be played per minute. The greater the tempo, the larger
the number of beats that must be played in a minute is, and, therefore,
the faster a piece must be played.
Basic Tempo Markings:
Largo – broadly (40–50 BPM)
Adagio – slow/stately (literally, "at ease") (51–60 BPM)
Adagietto – rather slow (61–80 BPM)
Andante – at a walking pace (61–80 BPM)
Moderato – moderately (81–90 BPM)
Allegro – fast, quickly and bright (105–132 BPM)
Presto – very fast (168–177 BPM)
21. CHANGES IN TEMPO & ARTICULATION
Accelerando – speeding up (abbreviation: accel.)
Rallentando – gradual slowing down (abbreviation: rall.) or broadening of
tempo
Ritardando – slowing down gradually; (abbreviations: rit., ritard.)
Rubato – free adjustment of tempo for expressive purposes
a tempo – in time; return to the main tempo of the piece (often after an
accelerando or ritardando, etc.)
Staccato (Italian for detached) signifies a note of shortened duration,
separated from the note that may follow by silence.
Legato (Italian for "tied together") indicates that musical notes are played
or sung smoothly and connected
Slur - a curved line used to indicate that notes should be interpretted as
a phrase and often in one breath.
22. CODAS
Coda (Italian for "tail") designates a passage that brings a
piece/movement to an end. It may be as simple as a few measures, or as
complex as an entire section.
Da Capo meaning from the beginning. It is often abbreviated D.C.
Dal Segno meaning from the sign. It is often abbreviated D.S
Segno Coda
23. CODAS
Da Capo al Fine (D.C. al Fine): repeat from beginning to the end (or up
to the word fine, should that appear at the end of the passage – the word
fine itself signifying “end”).
Dal Segno al Fine (D.S. al Fine): repeat from beginning to the end (or up
to the word fine should that appear at the end of the passage – the word
fine itself signifying “end”).
24. CODAS
Da Capo al Coda (D.C. al Coda): repeat from beginning to an indicated
place and then play the tail part (the coda).
Dal Segno al Coda (D.S. al Coda): instructs the musician to repeat back
to the sign, and when Al coda or To coda is reached jump to the coda
symbol
