It aims to analyze how sovereign power shapes environments and social/cultural spaces in their novels, and how this relates to constructions of national identity. By mapping how sovereign power is applied and distributed across various spaces, the thesis will demonstrate the inextricable link between environmental control and control over British subjects. It will also explore the paradox that sovereignty can only be maintained through undermining the sovereignty of other nations. The thesis has six chapters analyzing these themes in the selected authors' works.
Robert FAURISSON. The victories of revisionism
1) The document summarizes the key findings and victories of Holocaust revisionism over the past 60 years, arguing that no evidence has been provided to prove that Nazi Germany ordered the extermination of 6 million Jews or used gas chambers for mass killing.
2) It outlines some of the major works and figures of Holocaust revisionism, including Robert Faurisson, Fred Leuchter, Germar Rudolf, Arthur Butz, and others, and their arguments that the Nazis had concentration camps but not extermination camps, and did not use gas chambers or gas vans to kill people.
3) The document concludes that the Holocaust is treated as an official religion in the West, and that in France one can be prosecuted for disput

The Tragedy of Vinnytsia materials on Stalin's policy of extermination in Ukr...
The Vinnytsia massacre was a mass execution of (mostly ethnic Ukrainian) people in the Ukrainian town of Vinnytsia by the Soviet secret police NKVD during Joseph Stalin's Great Purge in 1937–1938. Mass graves in Vinnytsia were discovered during the German occupation of Ukraine in 1943. The investigation of the site first conducted by the international Katyn Commission coincided with the discovery of a similar mass murder site of Polish prisoners of war in Katyn. Because the Germans utilized this evidence of Communist terror to discredit the Soviet Union internationally, it became one of the better researched sites of the politically motivated NKVD massacres among many in Ukraine.

Unit 2 poetry project
This document discusses Edgar Allan Poe and poetry. It provides context that Poe was an American author, poet and literary critic born in 1809. It discusses how Poe's poems fit the definition of poetry by putting words together that may not make sense to all readers but signify something to some. It then discusses Poe's life and influential works like "The Raven" and "Annabel Lee". It notes how Poe influenced later authors with his Gothic and mystery styles despite some criticisms of his works being too depressing. In conclusion, the document states that while criticisms exist, Poe was hugely influential on literature and imagining modern media without his influences is difficult.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
