When was the last time you got a love letter? When was the last time you wrote a love letter? Now that writing love letters is a lost art, what better gift can you give the one you love than an old-fashioned, authentic, hand written, love letter! The purpose of this book is twofold. One, it shares some of the most romantic love letters ever written. They act as a model to help you express your love in a profound and personal way that your partner wil treasure for the rest of their life.
But first, what is love? In the year 2012, that phrase - what is love -, was the most researched phrase on Google. Five writers from diverse backgrounds tried to define what love is. The five people were a physicist, a psychotherapist, a philosopher, a romantic novelist, and a nun.
The answers they gave were eloquent, convincing, and yes, diverse. The nun said that love is a paradox. “Love is free yet binds us.” The romantic novelist said that love is everything. The philosopher said that love is a passionate commitment. The psychotherapist identified six different types of love and said that it is unlikely to experience all six types with only one person. And the physicist? He said that “love is chemistry.”
So what is love? In this book, I have tried to show love that is as diverse as the five authors above have defined it. I also try to show love that meets the precise definition that Paul gives in his first letter to the Corinthians, below:
“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.” ~ The First Letter of Paul To The Corinthians 13:4-8

They want to send him to his wealthy brother but know that Silas doesn't want to go there. Social attitudes emerge as the couple remember how Silas fought with a college boy about book learning and life experience. Warren is antagonistic to Silas whom he regards as an economic liability.

Sonnet 29: When in Disgrace with Fortune and Men's Eyes
When, in disgrace with Fortune and men's eyes,
I all alone beweep my outcast state,
And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries,
And look upon myself and curse my fate,
Wishing me like to one more rich in hope,
Featured like him, like him with friends possessed,
Desiring this man's art, and that man's scope,
With what I most enjoy contented least;
Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising,
Haply I think on thee, and then my state,
Like to the lark at break of day arising
From sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven's gate;
For thy sweet love remembered such wealth brings
That then I scorn to change my state with kings.
By William Shakespeare
Sonnet 130 by William Shakespeare
My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun
Coral is far more red than her lips' red;
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
I have seen roses damasked, red and white,
But no such roses see I in her cheeks;
And in some perfumes is there more delight
Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.
I love to hear her speak, yet well I know
That music hath a far more pleasing sound;
I grant I never saw a goddess go;
My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground.
And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare
As any she belied with false .
The Good-Morrow by John Donne: Analysis. The Good-Morrow, by John Donne, chiefly deals with a love that advances further from lusty love to the spiritual love.The poem makes use of biblical and Catholic writings, indirectly referencing the legend of the Seven Sleepers and Paul the Apostle's description of divine, agapic love – two concepts with which, as a practicing Catholic, Donne would have been familiar.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

4. Robert and Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Her 1844 Poems made her one of the most popular writers in the land, and
inspired Robert Browning to write her, telling her how much he loved her
poems. Kenyon arranged for Browning to come see her in May 1845, and
so began one of the most famous courtships in literature.
Six years his elder and an invalid (she injured her spine in a fall), she could
not believe that the vigorous and worldly Browning really loved her as much
as he professed to, and her doubts are expressed in the Sonnets from the
Portuguese which she wrote over the next two years. Love conquered all,
however, and Browning married Elizabeth.
No female poet was held in higher esteem among cultured readers in both
the United States and England than Elizabeth Barrett Browning during the
nineteenth century Victorian poetry movement.
Public sympathy for Robert after her death (she was a much more popular
poet during their lifetimes) surely helped the critical reception of his
Collected Poems (1862) and Dramatis Personae (1863). His influence
continued to grow, however, and finally lead to the founding of the Browning
Society in 1881.

7. from “Sonnets from the Portuguese” By Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806-
1861) Let’s watch this performed by a student on video
XLIII
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
I love thee to the level of everyday's
Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight.
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints,--I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life!--and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death 7
8. New terms

seems too much like a fate, indeed!
hough I do my best I shall scarce succeed.
ut what if I fail of my purpose here?
is but to keep the nerves at strain,
o dry one's eyes and laugh at a fall,
nd, baffled, get up and begin again,---
o the chace takes up one's life ' that's all.
hile, look but once from your farthest bound
me so deep in the dust and dark,
o sooner the old hope goes to ground
han a new one, straight to the self-same mark,
shape me---

11. Theme
What is it? “lesson” about life…universal idea…often not
stated, but inferred – look for repeated ideas
Examples from Sonnet XLIII: "Sonnet 43" expresses the
poet’s intense love for her husband-to-be, Robert
Browning. So intense is her love for him, she says, that it
rises to the spiritual level (Lines 3 and 4). She loves him
freely, without coercion; she loves him purely, without
expectation of personal gain. She even loves him with an
intensity of the suffering (passion: Line 9) resembling
that of Christ on the cross, and she loves him in the way
that she loved saints as a child. Moreover, she expects
to continue to love him after death.
Examples from “Life in Love”…the chase!

27. Nature poetry
Haiku
From the Japanese culture, we have an example of Haiku.
Traditional Haiku consists of three lines.
The first contains 5 syllables; the second contains 7
syllables; the third contains 5 syllables. The typical
subject for Haiku poetry is an instant in time which occurs in
nature.
Think about the split second when the rain drops on a leaf or the
instant when a bird spreads its wings just before launching into
flight. These are typical moments captured by a Haiku.
Spring morning marvel
lovely nameless little hill
on a sea of mist
