This document provides guidance for analyzing Gothic literature such as Poe's stories. It discusses how Gothic writers explore the "inner world" or mind of characters. It instructs the reader to look for clues about a character's mental state, conflicts from a lack of self-control, and names/places that suggest darkness or what is hidden. The document also notes that Poe provides few concrete details, requiring the reader to use their imagination to interpret the context, settings, and characters.

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.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.
Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
3. On the Edge
• Through flashback, Poe’s narrator reveals the
incidents which bring him to the point of facing
his own death on the very next day.
• We learn of the narrator’s personality, which is
monstrously altered apparently by an addiction
to alcohol.
4. Clues
• Remember that Gothic Literature employs the
literary device of the grotesque.
• “Grotesque”, an adjective, derives from the
Italian, meaning “grotto” or “cave”.
• The “cave” used in the gothic sense is the mind, the
inner world.
• Gothic writers explore the inner world of the main
character.
5. Pursuing the Clues
• Look for words in the story that refer to the
mental state of the character.
• Look for conflicts that result from a character’s
lack of self-control.
• Look for names or places that suggest darkness
or what is hidden.
• Look for actions that defy rational explanation.
6. • Notice as well that Poe provides us few concrete
details.
• His language is often spare and suggestive.
(“I suffered myself to use intemperate
language to my wife.”)
• We must enter into our own imaginations to
develop the context of the setting, the
action, and the physical appearance of the
characters.
7. What Is Really Going On?
• Remember, we are expected to enter into
the character’s mind, and by so doing, enter
into our own as well.
• What motivated the character to act as he
did? By extension, what motivates us to act
as we sometimes do?
• Poe believed that our irrational actions
(pleasant one moment, crabby and irascible
the next) result from our “perverse” nature.
8. Our Dual Nature
• Look for characters who exhibit separate
personalities.
• Look for situations that involve two separate
states of being.
• Look for unexplainable events.
• Look for characters in torment—usually a
consequence of guilt.
