George Gordon Byron was a leading figure of the Romantic movement in early 19th century England. His poem "She Walks in Beauty" describes a beautiful woman using similes comparing her to a cloudless night. It employs hyperbole to emphasize her perfect beauty. The poem uses symbolic meanings for words and follows an ABBA rhyme scheme through each stanza. Figurative language and musical devices like rhyme are used to reinforce the message of the woman's beauty.

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

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.

3. POEM : SHE WALKS IN BEAUTY
She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all of that’s best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellow’d to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impair’d the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven trees,
Or softly lightens o’er her face;
Where thought serenaly sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.
And on that cheek, and o’er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tint that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all bellow,
A heart whose love is innocent!
4. Figurative Language
Simile :
She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies
Line 1 there are words “She walks in beauty, like the night”.
They have meaning that “she” is beauty as the night. It is refer
to the line 2, “Of cloudless climes and starry skies”, the night
aim to the night without clouds and full of stars. So, these
means the woman as beauty as the night with cloudless climes
and starry skies.
5. Hyperbole :
Thus mellow’d to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies
These line have hyperbolic meaning, because it means that the
woman has beauty that softly emitted from herself, as if her
light of beauty denied by heaven.
One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impair’d the nameless grace
In the line 1 and 2 have hyperbolic meaning, because it means
that if the goodness of her face has changed because of little
badness, it could depraved the beauty of the woman and she
become ‘half beauty’ or not perfect anymore.
6. Symbol :
One shade the more, one ray the less
Which waves in every raven trees,
Beside hyperbolic meaning, in line 1 also has symbolic meaning.
The word ‘shade’ in “One shade the more” means badness. And
word ‘ray’ in “one ray the less” means goodness. For over all it
means that a little badness decrease the goodness.
The word ‘waves’ means the wavy hair and ‘raven trees’ means
black hair. So line 3 means the woman who has wavy black hair.
The smiles that win, the tint that glow
In line 3 has symbolic meaning. The word ‘win’ in “The smiles
that win” means attractive. And ‘the tint’ in “the tint that glow”
means the color of her face. So over all it means, the smiles that
smiling attractively and the color of her face that glowing
beautifully.
7. MUSICAL DEVICES
Rime : stanza 1
She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all of that’s best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellow’d to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
In stanza 1, there are words night, bright, and light which have
repetition of the vowel sound as well as the words skies, eyes,
and denies. It is called rime a-b-a-b-a-b or called end rime,
because it comes at the end of the line. First similarity are
night, bright, and light thats called rime a. Second are skies,
eyes, and denies which called rime b.
8. Stanza 2
One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impair’d the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven trees,
Or softly lightens o’er her face;
Where thought serenaly sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.
Stanza 3
And on that cheek, and o’er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tint that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all bellow,
A heart whose love is innocent!
9. The similarity also exist on stanza 2 and 3. As well as
stanza 1, stanza 2 and stanza 3 also have a-b-a-b-a-b at
the end of the rime. These similarities showing that
Byron chooses his word for sound as a mean of
reinforcing his meaning, besides in terms of aesthetics
too.
