The poem snake is a beautiful, haunting description of an encounter between man and nature. Lawrence deals amazingly with the conflict of whether to choose between his education and kill the snake or his moral instinct telling him that the snake is a friend, not a foe. we have made this presentation to make others aware of this awesome poem, and we hope you learn a lot from this presentation. we have included, in the ppt, the analysis of the poem, a critical review, the battle between moral and educational reason, about the poet and his works etc too so that it will be easier for us to get a better grasp of Lawrence's feelings and thoughts.
We are going to take a closer look at the history of the term "metaphysical poetry" and some examples of this curious and enigmatic school of early modern poetry in this post. Extensive similes and metaphors, extended poetic conceits and paradoxes, informal speech, and an interest in examining the interaction between the physical and spiritual world (and between the big and the small) are all common characteristics of metaphysical poetry, which we will discuss in this brief introduction.

"To An Athlete Dying Young" is a poem in A.E. Housman's A Shropshire Lad (1896). It is perhaps one of the most well-known poems pertaining to early death; in this case, that of a young man at the height of his physical glory.
Published in the period between the two Boer Wars, the poem gained even more popularity during World War I, as many saw it as a poignant lament for the lost generation of so many bright, young men, cut down in their prime.
Prothalamion by E. Spenser, a spausal verse a poem of elizabethan era - piyu...piyush prashant
prothalmion by Edmund spenser
a rare poem
Prothalamion, the commonly used name of Prothalamion; or, A Spousall Verse in Honour of the Double Marriage of Ladie Elizabeth and Ladie Katherine Somerset,[1] is a poem by Edmund Spenser (1552–1599), one of the important poets of the Tudor Period in England. Published in 1596[1] (see 1596 in poetry), it is a nuptial song that he composed that year on the occasion of the twin marriage of the daughters of the Earl of Worcester; Elizabeth Somerset and Katherine Somerset.
Prothalamion is written in the conventional form of a marriage song. The poem begins with a description of the River Thames where Spenser finds two beautiful maidens. The poet proceeds to praise them and wishing them all the blessings for their marriages. The poem begins with a fine description of the day when on which he is writing the poem. "Calm was the day and through the trembling air/The sweet breathing Zephyrus did softly play." The poet is standing near the Thames River and finds a group of nymphs with baskets collecting flowers for the new brides. The poet tells us that they are happily making the bridal crowns for Elizabeth and Katherine. He goes on his poem describing two swans at the Thames, relating it to the myth of Jove and Leda. According to the myth, Jove falls in love with Leda and comes to court her in the guise of a beautiful swan. The poet feels that the Thames has done justice to his nuptial song by "flowing softly" according to his request: "Sweet Thames run softly till I end my song." The poem is often grouped with Spenser's poem about his own marriage, the Epithalamion.
"My Little Portuguese”! Robert Browning used to address her in this pet name and Elizabeth wrote in Sonnet-33 “Yes, call me by my pet-name! let me hear”.Elizabeth Barrette Browning was one of the most prominent Victorian rational feminist poetesses.
A rational-humane point of view manifests itself in her poems.She developed this quality because she was "self-taught in almost every respect."
Edgar Allen Poe called her "the noblest of her sex” and borrowed the themetic elements of his famous poem 'Raven' from her poem.

A mysterious sea monster has been creating havoc in the ocean. Ships of all shapes and sizes, as well as humans, have been destroyed by this enigma! No corner of the earth has been spared from its terror, as it continues to kill all who cross its path. In reaction to this destructive force, the US Government wastes no time in sending out a team of experienced professionals to track down and destroy it. Professor Pierre Aronnax, a marine biologist; Conseil, his faithful assistant; and Ned Land, a Canadian master harpooner, come together in an epic hunt. On board a naval ship, the Abraham Lincoln, the three men set out to track down this terrifying beast of the ocean. But will they succeed? And what will they discover if they do? Published in 1870, originally in French, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea is a classic example of the imagination and foresight of Jules Verne. His pioneering approach to writing in the late 19th century led many to refer to him as the father of science fiction
Ramayana and Mahabharata, the two great epics of India, have captivated the hearts of its people for several millenniam
Hindu tradition has always considered these two epics as itihasa (verily did it exist thus) or history.
Modern scholars have largely conceded that the core of the epics could have had a historical basis
Parashurama is the sixth avatar of Lord Vishnu. He is the son of Renuka and one of the saptarishi Sage Jamadagni. He lived during the last Dvapara Yuga and is one of the seven immortals or Chiranjivi of Hinduism. He received an axe after undertaking terrible penance to please Lord Shiva, who in turn taught him the martial arts.
It tells about the moral values of our life. If one can want to live life with peace he should study this dynamic text.
It tells us about the feeling of brotherhood, which is more important in this period.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

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.

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”.

2. Here sits the great storyteller Maharishi*
Vyasa. The story he writes unfolded in
Bhaaratvarsha**, a land blessed by the gods.
It was a magical age called Dwapara Yuga,
when the gods and their children took
mortal form; when men and women lived
extraordinary lives and became the legendary
heroes that people would tell stories about.
It was a time when people looked up to Kshatriyas, the
warrior class, as their protectors. But filled with greed, many
of them misused their power to terrorise those they were
meant to protect. To amass wealth, they fought their noble
brothers, killed them mercilessly, and showed no respect for
life. The earth was heavy with sorrow for their evil deeds.
It was during this age that a prophecy foretold of the
destruction of these evil warriors. To cause this destruction and
fulfil the prophecy, one woman arose from the sacred fire.
I am that woman. My name is Draupadi.
Born in an age when women were appreciated
for their patience and sweetness, they say
that my thoughts burnt bright as flames, and
my words were sharp like fire-tipped arrows.
Perhaps it is true – I would like to think
it is. But you, dear reader, may decide
for yourself. For here is my story...
*An illustrious and highly venerated sage
**Another name for India

3. Like all good stories,
it begins at the end.
The mountain wind is bitterly cold, and I am clad
in simple cotton. Shivering and freezing, on the icy
cold Himalayan slopes, I can hardly feel my feet...
...but I must keep walking for it is
the rule of the mahaprasthana,
the final journey to heaven.
I can only stop when my
body collapses. I can only
stop when I am dead.
Ahead of me walk five glorious
men. They are the Pandavas, the
greatest warriors that ever lived.
Their strides are big and
their bodies strong. I
struggle to keep up...
...but I cannot. In the howling wind, their
presence fades, and I am all alone.
All my life I have
been surrounded by
people. Yet, strangely,
I have always felt
alone.
But what does it matter now, if my last
hours on earth are spent in solitude?
CAMPFIRETM
Except, perhaps,
for Krishna – that
dazzling god who walked
the earth in the garb of
a man. His presence
never fades.

4. The wind suddenly softens, and
I am grateful. The mere thought
of Krishna brings blessings.
As I trudge along, my entire life
flashes before me, and I am stung
by questions as I remember.
Why did I, a
fire-born princess,
live such a lonely
life?
Why do I
walk to my death
with five men?
Have I fulfilled
everything I was
born to do?
To answer these questions, I must
recall every instance of my life.
I must tell you about the river goddess
Ganga and her son Bheeshma, about a
blind king and a widowed queen...
...about a great teacher and his
hundred and five students...
...about the intrigue at the
royal house of Kuru, the
family I was married into.
...and about Krishna, my friend, my
guide, my anchor. His words were the
only ones that calmed my fiery soul.
My thoughts fly to the most
sacred of rivers, the Ganga...

5. But Satyavati’s father objected to the
marriage. He was worried that the throne
of Hastinapur would rightfully pass to
Devavrata after Shantanu died. This
meant that Satyavati’s children would
have no chance of becoming rulers.
Devavrata was born of Ganga and King
Shantanu of the Kuru dynasty that
ruled the kingdom of Hastinapur.
To put the fisherman’s fears to rest,
Devavrata took a terrible oath.
When Devavrata was still very
young, Ganga left him and Shantanu
to return to her river abode, and
the king grieved for many years.
One day, while hunting in the
woods, Shantanu met Satyavati,
the beautiful daughter of a
fisherman, and fell in love with her.
Devavrata persuaded his father,
the king, to marry Satyavati and
make her the new queen.
CAMPFIRETM
www.campfire.co.in
6. Invoking the gods as witness, Devavrata
renounced his right to the throne of Hastinapur
forever. He also vowed that he would never
marry and would never have children of his own.
The gods were amazed at the courage of this
sixteen-year-old prince who had sacrificed
power and pleasure for his father’s sake. From
the heavens, they gave him a new name,
Bheeshma, the one who took inviolable oaths.
Bheeshma remained a loyal
caretaker of the throne, lovingly
tending to his half-brothers.
Thus, the only successors to the
Kuru throne were now Satyavati’s
children and grandchildren.
Satyavati had two sons with Shantanu
– Chitrangada and Vichitravirya.
But tragedy struck twice. His halfbrothers died young. Chitrangada
left no heirs, but Vichitravirya’s
queens gave birth to a son each...

7. In an ancient age, when gods and mortals walked
the earth together...
...a mysterious prophecy resounds for all to hear,
and the bewitchingly beautiful princess Draupadi
arises from a sacred fire.
Draupadi is in love with Arjuna, the Pandava prince.
But fate weaves a strange story and she finds herself
wedded to five men – Arjuna and his four Pandava
brothers. Draupadi’s life is complicated further
by the Kauravas, her husbands’ envious cousins,
who try everything in their power to harm her and
the Pandavas.
As Draupadi’s terrible destiny begins to unfold, she
is reduced from a majestic queen with five warrior
husbands to a servant girl. Evil waits at every corner,
and a great war looms ahead. Her only comfort is
her friend, Krishna.
Will the impulsive Draupadi brave the humiliation
destiny has written for her? Must she lose
everything she has loved?
Adapted from the ancient Indian epic Mahabharata,
this is the story of an astonishingly outspoken
woman, abandoned at every turn, and forced
to make the difficult choice between revenge
and compassion.
