The document traces the history and development of the idea of Europe from its earliest mentions in ancient Greek texts to the present day European Union. It discusses key moments like the Roman Empire unifying much of Europe, Charlemagne being crowned emperor in 800, the intellectual revival of the 12th century, the rise of nationalism in the 19th century, two world wars prompting further integration, and treaties like the EU's Maastricht Treaty. The overarching message is that the European idea has evolved greatly over two millennia through periods of both unity and division.

Europe is a continent that can be divided into four regions: Western Europe, Eastern Europe, Northern Europe, and Southern Europe. The United Nations Geoscheme also divides Europe into the same four subregions. The exact placement of individual countries may vary based on the criteria being used, and there is no universal agreement on Europe’s regional composition.

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.

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.
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.

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.

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.

1. EUROPE: born of an idea.
Rethink how the idea of Europe was formed is now essential to look ahead, with
foresight, as well as with courage and determination.
We have to rethink the history of this long historical process outside prejudices and
nationalist visions, outside rhetorical representations and sweeteners, but also free
from pessimism and defeatism. The millennial history of the idea of Europe helps us
to take this path because it is made of rapid changes and long-term persistence's, great
innovations and discoveries, new achievements and ideal strongholds, of inclusion, of
commingling, of integration, but also of intolerance, of crisis, of war and subjugation.
There is in this story, which is the history of individual characters, of populations and
states, the path of ideas and there are concrete changes, religious reforms, political
revolutions and economic crises; there is the language of art and philosophy, that of
weapons and obscurantism of religious persecution.
There is a Europe built through the treaties but there is also a Europe of high ideals;
there are, to define its vast geographical and cultural boundaries, the language of
science and that of weapons, but, to prove its civilization, there is the defense of
individual rights against arbitrary power and the struggle for the extension of social
rights.
In the idea of Europe there is our past, but above all there is our future.
First traces of Europe
VIII Century B.C. The name of Europe
The name of Europe as land appears for the first time in Homer’s Hymn to Apollo 7
sec. A.C.
Around 500 AD Hecataeus of Miletus speaks of two great divisions, Europe and Asia
(with Libya which is part of the second). A generation later, Herodotus sets the
habitable world in Europe and the barbarian world in Asia. So the old Europe is
already identified in the basin of Mediterranean Sea.
IInd
Century AD: heyday of the Roman Empire
At the peak of its power, the Roman Empire covers the entire Mediterranean basin,
extending to Asia Minor.
Under the Pax Romana (Roman Peace) develops a culture inspired by Greek
humanism and the Christian religion, which is the foundation of the "European
civilization."
732 The Battle of Poitiers
The battle in 732 AD halted Islam has become a founding moment of European
identity. Debut of the "Europeenses".
The Franks under the command of Charles Martel, grandfather of Charlemagne,
defeated an Arab army under the command of the governor of the Arab Spain, Abd
el-Rahman, who died on the battlefield.
The battle is from the sixteenth century, a symbol of the struggle of the Christian
Europe and the Muslim, an event that marked a turning point in history with the
beginning of the decline of Islam facing Christianity in Europe.
The Battle of Poitiers became one of the great myths of medieval history, is
significant that the word "European" (europeenses) appears for the first time in the
eighth century text to indicate the winners of the clash with Arabs.
2. 800: Charlemagne was crowned Emperor of the West.
The Christmas night of the 800 the Pope in Rome crowned Charlemagne as King.
Three centuries after the fall of the Western Roman Empire, this event marks the
reunification of Western Europe under a single crown.
During his lifetime, Charlemagne is even called Pater Europae (father of Europe).
But this period of European unity was short-lived: a few years after the death of
Charlemagne, the Carolingian space is divided into kingdoms, which are fast
becoming rivals.
XI CENTURY
In 1130 the Bishop of Toledo created a school of Arab and Jews translation.
Westerners are rediscovering so many writings of antiquity, especially Greek, hitherto
forgotten, as a part of the philosophy of Aristotle, review by Arab philosophers
(Averroes...).
The "turn of the year 1000": towards the middle of the tenth century the European
population begins to increase, due to climate improvement and some technical
advances that have applications in agriculture, like the shoulder collar for horses.
At the same time, "the white coat of the Church" covered the entire continent, and the
pilgrimages to San Jaques and Jerusalem became the expression of the bright
medieval piety "qui, du monde extérieur à son lieu de vie, ne connaît que Dieu ".
The "renaissance" of the twelfth century is a key period of revival of the cultural
world in the Middle Ages.
The intellectual disciplines are well nourished and revitalized by the momentum of
translations from Greek and Arabic in Spain and Italy, which broadcasts new texts of
Aristotle and his Muslim commentators.
From this stems a new taste for science subjects, for dialectics, the birth of dogmatic
theology and the sketch of scholasticism and the development of law and medicine in
Mediterranean regions.
Century of the rise of a true class "intellectuals" and the flourishing of a court culture
and courtly literature, the twelfth century prepares the cultural maturity of the next
century, which will be developed in the context of universities.
Origins of Europe's first universities.
Economic growth and political stabilization will improve roads, build bridges, and
more secure infrastructure network maintenance (bridges, hospitals) and conduct the
travelers. The cash economy is gradually replacing donation practices and gift-cons.
1492
Discovery of the New World and the period of Portuguese and Spanish colonial
empires that followed.
The intolerance
1492 Granada: Inquisition, Islam and Jews.
An unforgettable year that signs the end of the Middle Age and the start of the
Modern Age.
The modern State is born under the flag of intolerance, creating categories of
"different people" on which they (who managed the power) practice the mechanisms
of exclusion and exploitation.
3. 1555 Carlo V the end of the United European Project
Emperor, between 1500 and 1700, of the possessions united under the crown of the
Habsburg. The Monarchy included the Iberian Peninsula, most of the Italian country,
Sicily, Sardinia, the Netherlands, the German empire, and even the West Indies: so
that Charles V could utter the famous phrase "The Sun Never Sets In My Kingdom".
25th September 1555: The Peace of Augsburg marks the end of the religious unity of
Europe. Collapses the dream that the Emperor Charles V embodied: the idea of a
universal monarchy, desired by God, to preserve and defend the peace, order, religion
and civilization in Europe. At the end of the rites of renunciation of power, the former
emperor retreats to a remote monastery.
1807 height of the Napoleonic Empire
For some, Napoleon Bonaparte widespread in Europe the new ideas introduced by the
French Revolution, the abolition of privileges, the Civil Code, individual liberty ...
For others, he merely establish the domination of France on other nations.
In 1815, the Congress of Vienna announces the form of cooperation developed until
1914: the "concert of nations", which sees the European states meet regularly to deal
with war and trade.
1814: Saint-Simon proposes the creation of a European Parliament
At the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, the French philosopher Henri de Saint-
Simon (precursor of sociology) has the intuition that new techniques will upset the
relations between nations.
On the eve of the Congress of Vienna, he published a text entitled: "On the
reorganization of European society or the need and means to bring together the
peoples of Europe into a single political body retaining each national independence" .
August 21, 1849: the awakening of the nations inspires Victor Hugo's speech on
the United States of Europe
In 1848, a wave of revolutions is spreading throughout Europe: in Italy, Austria,
Germany, France, Hungary ... the people are rising up to demand more freedom.
Within the Austrian Empire, these uprisings are accompanied by nationalist claims.
The writer and MP Victor Hugo sees the awakening of nations the promise of
European unification.
At the Peace Congress, held in Paris in 1849, he declared: "A day will come when
you France, you Russia, you Italy, you England, you Germany, all you nations of the
continent, without losing your distinctive qualities and your glorious individuality,
will merge into a higher unity closely, and you will build the European brotherhood."
1918-1944: the European idea in the early 20th century
During both world wars, authoritarian regimes are set up in almost all of Europe.
Pacifists and European ideas do not cease to flow, but with more and more difficulty.
Altiero Spinelli, one of the founding fathers of Europe, was sentenced and deported
under Mussolini's regime. Prisoner, he wrote a manifesto for a united Europe.
4. 1941: The European movement “Resistance”
The European idea is very present in the Resistance, which focuses on the democratic
character of the future united Europe. Two documents mark this revival of the
European idea.
The Ventotene Manifesto, entitled to a free and united Europe, was written in 1941,
mainly by the Italian Altiero Spinelli, a resistant, assisted by his companion Ernesto
Rossi. These authors believe that a European federation guarantee peace on the old
continent, including the creation of a joint military force.
A long common history
The European idea has its roots in Greco-Roman antiquity and went through the entire
history of the continent.
Early in the 20th century, the visionaries trying to warn their contemporaries on the
need to unite to end the conflicts between nations. After 1945, various attempts at
rapprochement between the states of Western Europe culminated in the creation of the
European Coal and Steel Community CECA.
The construction of the European Union was then in its infancy ...
In the mid-20th century, the disastrous record of two world wars has prompted
European nations to unite to prevent new conflicts and to face future challenges.
The Schuman Declaration of 9 May 1950 is considered the starting point of European
integration. In 1957 the signing of the Treaties of Rome mark the will of the founding
states to create a common economic space, in which people and goods circulate
freely.
In 1993, the signing of the Maastricht Treaty, which gave birth to the European
Union, marks a new stage in the construction of a political community across the
continent.
Then, in 1999, member states made a step closer to a real monetary union by adopting
the euro will enter into circulation three years later.
In 2005, the project of a European constitution is abandoned following the 'no' of the
French and Dutch peoples. Signed in 2007, the Lisbon Treaty, which turns the
institutional architecture of the Union, comes into force in 2009.
