Madness in edgar allan poe writing
Edgar Allan Poe is considered the father of modern horror stories. He wrote psychologically thrilling tales that examined the human psyche and often dealt with themes of death, loss, and sorrow. Poe struggled with depression and occasional bouts of madness throughout his life, stemming from tragic events like the early deaths of his parents.

Mountain language by Harold Pinter
The document provides a detailed summary and analysis of Harold Pinter's 1988 play "Mountain Language".

While some reviews praised its political subject matter, others found it too predictable or self-righteous in its critique of totalitarianism. The play was an effective mix of realism and absurdism that shocked audiences with its portrayal of political terrorism.
Umar i khayyam (1048-1131)

The speaking persona in his Quatrains can be seen as a scientist doubting human ability to understand the universe, connecting to Sufi themes of

Sidney was a war hero who fought against the Spanish troops and was injured. He is renowned for his work in sonnets, particularly his sequence Astrophel and Stella. The sequence tells the story of Sidney's unrequited love for Stella, who ended up marrying another man, despite feeling affection for Sidney. In the sonnets, Sidney struggles between virtue/reason and love/desire through metaphors and conceits. Though the sonnets draw on Sidney's real feelings, they exist in the realm of fantasy rather than reality. Astrophel and Stella consists of 110 sonnets that helped establish Sidney's literary reputation and was carefully arranged and polished.
Structuralism intro
Structuralism rejects examining a literary work for the author's intentions or to reveal truths, as the author is dead and the work has no truth value. It is anti-humanist in focusing on the text itself rather than the human subject. According to Roland Barth's 1968 essay, writers do not express themselves but rather mix and reassemble already existing writings, drawing only on language and culture, as words are already written and formulated in language. However, none of this is proven true, as if it were, writers would stop writing and take up other hobbies like knitting.
Structuralist poetics of johnathan culler
Jonathan Culler's 1975 book Structuralist Poetics explores using linguistics to analyze literature by examining the conventions readers use to understand works. While it is impossible to establish rules governing writing, Culler argues conventions underlie readers' interpretations. His later books Pursuit of Signs and Framing the Sign develop this, examining how readers' underlying linguistic and cultural competencies inform their interpretations without considering ideology. Literary Theory introduces structuralism as studying unconscious structures in language, psyche and society rather than seeking meaning, but how works can have the meanings they already have.

Geography and Identity in Marlowe
Marlowe carefully chose geographic locations in his plays that would be meaningful to early modern English audiences. Places like Tamburlaine's conquered lands moving east to west or Barabas living in Mediterranean trade cities. These locations highlighted protagonists transgressing moral and physical boundaries. Marlowe was interested in new geography becoming more scientifically accurate through tools like Ortelius' atlas, as the concept of "oikumene" or ordered world was shifting. Oikumene represented the distinction between one's homeland and foreign lands, and crossing its borders through travel was seen as transgressive and a loss of identity. In Marlowe's plays, the relationship between protagonists' identities and their movement between geographies is explored.
Sylvia Plath’s Reflections as The Female Scorpion in Blue Jar and Lady Lazarus
This document analyzes Sylvia Plath's personality and poetry through the lens of astrology. As a Scorpio, Plath was intensely driven and prone to bipolar mood swings. Her poem "Lady Lazarus" reflects her Scorpio traits of transformation and rebirth from darkness. Plath's novel The Bell Jar also shows signs of inner bitterness and resentment turning inward, as is common for female Scorpios facing injustice. Overall, the document examines how Plath's astrological sign may have influenced her works and ultimately tragic suicide through themes of revenge, destruction, and rebirth from ashes like a phoenix.

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real life
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!

Ghosts
- 1. GHOSTS
- 2. WHAT IS A GHOST?! German Word → “ Geist “ Chambers Dictionary → “ Spirit, any Spirit or Dominating Principle “ OED Dictionary → “ The Soul or Spirit as Principle of Life “ “ A Human “ To be Human ?! To Have a Spirit, Soul or Ghost!
- 3. …. OED Dictionary , Listed as 7th Meaning: “ Ghost → An Idea of The Spectre of The DEAD! “ “ The Dead Return to a kind of Spectral Existence “ “ An entity, NOT Alive, but also, NOT Quite DEAD! “
- 4. Ghosts Disturb sense of separation of Alive from Dead “ They are Frightening and Uncanny! “ Ghosts Are Both EXTERNAL & Internal or Central To Human. Ghosts are Fundamental TO human And Fundamentally Human
- 5. Paradoxical! Ghosts are Denial of Human → when you die, we are not Human anymore! And at the same time: Ghosts are in fact Human! LIVING-DEAD !!!!
- 6. What does a Ghost have to do in Literature?! Ghosts are embedded in Literature They are always Present in many HUANTING ways in Stories Novels Poems Films
- 7. Ghosts Have a History & In a sense, Are History! Ghost have always inscribed in a context! ?! They both Belong To & Haunt a Place or Time Idea of a Place → “ genius Loci “ Idea of a Time → “ Zeit geist “
- 8. Trace History of Ghosts in the Past: E.g → Ghosts in 19th C. Marx believed: God is Ghost Number 1 ! Because he had Disappeared! Or Dead! Psychologists believed: → Ghosts are things that move into someone’s Head It is Internalized not out there in the jungles!
- 9. Psychology Looked at Ghosts We ( Literature ) Looked at Both of Them! Hamlet?! Greatest Ghost work of Shakespeare (1600-1601)
- 10. Hamlet’s Father’s Ghost appears! “ Your Uncle killed me!” “ He married your Mother! “ “ get up Go Kill your Uncle! “
- 11. But Hamlet Can’t be Sure to Kill his Uncle or Not?! He Does Not Listen to his Father’s Ghost! He is in Fact Happy! He knows that if his Uncle had Not killed the Father, He would have killed him, and Go to Bed with his Mother!!!! “
- 12. Hamlet’s Father is an Idea that Haunts Him!
- 13. Ghosts in 20th C. Freud → A Boy Would Like to Kill his Father, and Sleep with His Mother! Father → is the Enemy who Takes Mommy away! ? → Can I kill the Father?! No! He is Powerful! He has a Phallus! Symbol of Power and Domination of Fathers!
- 14. Freud: Id Ego Superego Father is Like the Ego!
- 17. Id Ego Superego
- 18. Id Ego Superego
- 19. Lacan: Phallocentrism “ Father has a Phallus! “ “ Phallus is Symbol of Power! “ “ You Can Not Fight or Strike Power of Father!” “ But you Wish he was Dead! Hamlet did too! “ “ So he could not kill his Uncle!” Lacan: “ Hamlet is Like an Omlette Prisoned by fear Of Father! “
- 20. Phallocentric Culture of Lacan: Hamlet is The Yellow Part! Father ( Ghost ) ( Ego ) is the White! Ghosts in 20th C. An Idea like Phallus, Father, Power, that is Haunting the Man in Head!
- 21. Ghost in 20th Century an Idea that Silently Controls You!
- 22. Nicolas Abraham?! Ghosts are Unspeakable Secrets! People die! They take secrets with them! Secrets always make a gap! An unsolved empty place! An undone wish! An unanswered Question! Those secrets in the Head of the Alive about Dead Are GHOSTS for Abraham!
- 23. Ghosts → Secrets! In the heads of Alive! Not Real!
- 24. Ghosts are invented by Alive! Because they have Unfulfilled Wishes about Dead!
- 25. Esther Rashkin: There’s a Ghostliness in Literature! In Novels, Stories, Drama that The Characters and The Author are Giving and Taking! Those are the Hidden Secrets of Them! So! Be careful when Writing a Story!
- 26. Ghosts in 21st Century! Cellphones! Internet!
- 28. Ghosts in Search of Unknown! WTF is Here?!
