The document discusses symbolism in literature through several examples. It analyzes symbols in the short stories "Young Goodman Brown" by Nathaniel Hawthorne, "A Wall of Fire Rising" by Edwidge Danticat, and "The Thing in the Forest" by A.S. Byatt. In "Young Goodman Brown," Faith and a meeting in the woods symbolize the protagonist's religious faith and the ease of falling from virtue. In "A Wall of Fire Rising," a son and hot air balloon symbolize unfulfilled dreams. In "The Thing in the Forest," a worm encountered by two girls symbolizes the psychological damage of war. The document encourages looking for symbolic cues and deeper meanings in literature.

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.
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
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 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.

2. DEFINITION
Symbolism: The art or practice of using symbols especially
by investing things with a symbolic meaning or by
expressing the invisible or intangible by means of visible or
sensuous representations as:
Artistic imitation or invention that is a method of revealing or suggesting
immaterial, ideal, or otherwise intangible truth or states.
The use of conventional or traditional signs in the representation of
divine beings and spirits.
Definition: Merriam-Webster Dictionary Website
3. WHAT THAT ALL REALLY
MEANS…
The Norton Introduction to Literature says it best: “A symbol
is something that represents something else.”
Symbols are the things within a story which the author
intends for the reader to see, without having to outwardly
explain.
Usually these items have deeper importance, and the author
aims for the reader to discover and explore their
significance personally, making them more meaningful.
Symbols are like little secrets the author wants you to pick
up on, so he doesn’t have to tell you!
4. HOW ABOUT SOME
EXAMPLES “Young Goodman Brown” by Nathanial
Hawthorne, “A Wall of Fire Rising” by Edwidge Danticat, and “The Thing in
the Forest” by A.S Byatt all offer great instances and examples of
symbolism in action!
5. First, we are presented with Goodman’s wife, Faith.
A clear representation of all that is good, wholesome, and
trustworthy about Goodman Brown himself.
But also a telling representation of his faith in the church
and his religion.
Faith is Goodman’s moral compass though out the story,
and offers insight and foreshadowing to the reader.
YOUNG GOODMAN BROWN
“Young Goodman Brown” offers several instances of obvious
symbolism that most readers quickly pick up on.
6. When Goodman happens upon the meeting, he explains it as
almost churchlike…
This is a blatant cue for the reader to pick up on the
similarities the author is drawing between church and
coven.
As well as an indication as to the ease at which one can
fall from one to the other.
YOUNG GOODMAN BROWN
We are also presented with the symbolic meeting of the coven
in the woods.
7. Now that’s enough from “Good”man Brown…
Time for something more interesting!
(..and slightly more difficult to catch)
8. Symbolism within “A Wall of Fire Rising” may not be as
easily determined as “Young Goodman Brown,” but it is
equally significant and important.
Little Guy symbolizes the life Guy will never be able to live, and
all the opportunities he was never able to see.
This connection is so great, Guy has bestowed Little Guy
with a name symbolizing the newness and opportunity
which he feels his son represents.
A WALL OF FIRE
RISING
Possibly the most significant symbol to be mentioned is the
relationship between Guy and his son, Little Guy.
Having become so unhappy and unsatisfied by the life he has
lived, Guy has placed all his hopes and dreams onto Little
Guys shoulders.
9. The hot air balloon Guy becomes obsessed with fixing is a
perfect outlet for the unrealized dreams he has sheltered for a
better, more satisfying life.
And Guy’s eventual suicide involving the balloon is
symbolic of his failed life aspirations, and realization
that he will never be able to do better than the
repaired balloon.
A WALL OF FIRE
RISING
The reader is also presented with a symbol representing
Guy’s unfulfilled hopes and aspirations
10. Now that we are all catching on…
Let’s move on to the really good stuff!
11. Symbolism within “The Thing in the Forest” can be
more difficult to catch, but remains crucially important
to the storyline and understanding of the theme.
The worm is a clear symbol of their fears and nightmares.
But is also a representation of the emotional destruction and
psychological damage war can have on those who are
affected.
THE THING IN THE
FOREST
During their time in the woods, Penny and Primrose confront
the horribly, loathly worm.
12. Now you might be asking yourself…
HOW CAN A
WORM BE
A TANK??
Give me a second to explain!
13. They find solace in each other's company, but are still
tormented by the destruction the war has wrecked on their
lives.
That torment manifests itself in their encounter with the
worm in the woods.
A representation of fear and damage which they, as
children, can understand much more than the confusion
and intensity of the war.
The girls can not intellectually understand what is happening in
their lives, but can visualize the destruction which is caused by
the worm
See?
Worm = War!
THE THING IN THE
FOREST
Penny and Primrose have both lost their fathers, been
moved from their homes, ripped away from their mothers,
and forced to live uncomfortable lives in a scary new place.
14. No more cheesy pictures or connections!
We are almost done! I promise!
15. WHAT TO BE ON THE LOOK FOR
Symbolism in literature can range from overly obvious, to
seemingly impossible.
Just keep an open mind and look for cues!
Look for overly detailed descriptions, or incredibly
comprehensive explanations.
And always be weary if something seems out of place.
Try to keep an eye out for something the author may be
hoping you might notice
And always take a second to look a little closer, or dig a
little deeper!
Chances are, if the author has taken the time to create
detailed and complicated symbols in their piece, the
information is most likely rather important!
16. Thanks for taking a look at our PowerPoint!
Hope you enjoyed our work
And possibly learned a little something.
