Hamlet is a tragedy by William Shakespeare about a Danish prince who suspects his uncle of murdering his father. When the ghost of his father appears and confirms that he was poisoned by his brother, Hamlet vows to avenge his death. He feigns madness and stages a play mimicking the murder to prove his uncle's guilt. This causes several accidental deaths, including of Ophelia and her brother Laertes who seeks revenge. In the end, Hamlet kills his uncle in a duel but is also fatally poisoned, naming Fortinbras as the rightful heir to the Danish throne before dying.

I hope by uploading this presentation, it will help the viewers especially for the TESL students from IPG.
Hamlet is far from a perfect character. His depression and melancholy, however understandable,cause him to misunderstand Ophelia and The Queen. he kills polonius by mistake, but he also sends Rosencrantz and Guildenstern to their deaths with clear calculation.
Hamlet's insistence that even that part should be faced with courage, good humor and understanding which distinguishes him from the other characters and makes him Tragic Hero.
In my 3rd year in college, I was assigned to discuss in the class one of William Shakespeare's plays and I chose Hamlet, Prince of Denmark. It was in our English&American Literature class with Mr. D.A. Aragon. :)
The 1st part of the presentation is, of course, a short introduction of the playwright. (this is a super-duper late upload. haha)
This presentation is about Skakespeare's longest play and one of the most powerful and influential tragedy in the English language: Hamlet. It also includes a comparison with the famous film, The Lion Ling.

Gaius Julius Caesarwas a Roman general, statesman. William Shakespeare was born in 1564 Julius Caesar takes place in ancient Rome in 44 b.c., when Rome was the center of an empire stretching from Britain to North Africa and from Persia to Spain. Yet even as the empire grew stronger, so, too, did the force of the dangers threatening its existence: Rome suffered from constant infighting between ambitious military leaders and the far weaker senators to whom they supposedly owed allegiance. The empire also suffered from a sharp division between citizens, who were represented in the senate, and the increasingly underrepresented plebeian masses. A succession of men aspired to become the absolute ruler of Rome, but only Julius Caesar seemed likely to achieve this status. Those citizens who favored more democratic rule feared that Caesar’s power would lead to the enslavement of Roman citizens by one of their own. Therefore, a group of conspirators came together and assassinated Caesar. The assassination, however, failed to put an end to the power struggles dividing the empire, and civil war erupted shortly thereafter. The plot of Shakespeare’s play includes the events leading up to the assassination of Caesar as well as much of the subsequent war, in which the deaths of the leading conspirators constituted a sort of revenge for the assassination.Many feared that her death would plunge England into the kind of chaos that had plagued England during the fifteenth-century Wars of the Roses.There are over 80 different translations of his plays and poems. The number of translations of Shakespeare’s works all over the world is second only to the Bible.

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.

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.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

4. Play Summary
Prince Hamlet is depressed. Having been summoned home to Denmark from school in Germany to
attend his father's funeral, he is shocked to find his mother Gertrude already remarried. The Queen has
wed Hamlet's Uncle Claudius, the dead king's brother. To Hamlet, the marriage is "foul incest." Worse
still, Claudius has had himself crowned King despite the fact that Hamlet was his father's heir to the
throne. Hamlet suspects foul play.
.
5. When his father's ghost visits the castle, Hamlet's suspicions are confirmed. The Ghost
complains that he is unable to rest in peace because he was murdered. Claudius, says the
Ghost, poured poison in King Hamlet's ear while the old king napped. Unable to confess and
find salvation, King Hamlet is now consigned, for a time, to spend his days in Purgatory and
walk the earth by night. He entreats Hamlet to avenge his death, but to spare Gertrude, to let
Heaven decide her fate.
Hamlet vows to affect madness — puts "an antic disposition on" — to wear a mask that will
enable him to observe the interactions in the castle, but finds himself more confused than ever.
In his persistent confusion, he questions the Ghost's trustworthiness. What if the Ghost is not a
true spirit, but rather an agent of the devil sent to tempt him? What if killing Claudius results in
Hamlet's having to relive his memories for all eternity? Hamlet agonizes over what he
perceives as his cowardice because he cannot stop himself from thinking. Words immobilize
Hamlet, but the world he lives in prizes action
6. In order to test the Ghost's sincerity, Hamlet enlists the help of a troupe of players who perform a
play called The Murder of Gonzago to which Hamlet has added scenes that recreate the murder the
Ghost described. Hamlet calls the revised play The Mousetrap, and the ploy proves a success. As
Hamlet had hoped, Claudius' reaction to the staged murder reveals the King to be conscience-
stricken. Claudius leaves the room because he cannot breathe, and his vision is dimmed for want of
light. Convinced now that Claudius is a villain, Hamlet resolves to kill him. But, as Hamlet observes,
"conscience doth make cowards of us all.“
7. In his continued reluctance to dispatch Claudius, Hamlet actually causes six ancillary deaths.
The first death belongs to Polonius, whom Hamlet stabs through a wallhanging as the old man
spies on Hamlet and Gertrude in the Queen's private chamber. Claudius punishes Hamlet for
Polonius' death by exiling him to England. He has brought Hamlet's school chums Rosencrantz
and Guildenstern to Denmark from Germany to spy on his nephew, and now he instructs them to
deliver Hamlet into the English king's hands for execution. Hamlet discovers the plot and arranges
for the hanging of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern instead .Ophelia , distraught over her father's
death and Hamlet's behaviour, drowns while singing sad love songs bemoaning the fate of a
spurned lover. Her brother, Laertes, falls next.
8. Laertes, returned to Denmark from France to avenge his father's death, witnesses
Ophelia's descent into madness. After her funeral, where he and Hamlet come to
blows over which of them loved Ophelia best, Laertes vows to punish Hamlet for her
death as well.
Unencumbered by words, Laertes plots with Claudius to kill Hamlet. In the midst of
the sword fight, however, Laertes drops his poisoned sword. Hamlet retrieves the
sword and cuts Laertes. The lethal poison kills Laertes. Before he dies, Laertes tells
Hamlet that because Hamlet has already been cut with the same sword, he too will
shortly die. Horatio diverts Hamlet's attention from Laertes for a moment by pointing
out that "The Queen falls."
Gertrude, believing that Hamlet's hitting Laertes means her son is winning the
fencing match, has drunk a toast to her son from the poisoned cup Claudius had
intended for Hamlet. The Queen dies.
9. As Laertes lies dying, he confesses to Hamlet his part in the plot and explains that
Gertrude's death lies on Claudius' head. Finally enraged, Hamlet stabs Claudius with
the poisoned sword and then pours the last of the poisoned wine down the King's
throat. Before he dies, Hamlet declares that the throne should now pass to Prince
Fortinbras of Norway, and he implores his true friend Horatio to accurately explain the
events that have led to the bloodbath at Elsinore. With his last breath, he releases
himself from the prison of his words: "The rest is silence."
The play ends as Prince Fortinbras, in his first act as King of Denmark, orders a
funeral with full military honours for slain Prince Hamlet.
