The civilization of Ancient Greece emerged into the light of world history in the 8th century BC. Normally it is regarded as coming to an end when Greece fell to the Romans, in 146 BC. However, major Greek, or “Hellenistic”, kingdoms lasted longer than this. As a culture, Greek civilization lasted longer still, continuing right to the end of the ancient world.

You cannot understand the history of the long Peloponnesian Wars between Athens and Sparta with first studying Herodotus' Histories, and these events form the political background for the Trial and Execution of Socrates and all of the Platonic dialogues.
In this video we discuss the unlikely victory of the Greeks over the mighty Persian Empire under both King Darius and the much larger forces gathered by his successor and son, King Xerxes.

A word about delivery. Most slides show for 3.5 seconds with minimum explanation. Purpose? To pique curiosity. The "Points to look for in this session" slide is repeated every 15 slides (not shown here). Bullets are delivered serially, with time for thought between each. The intro is played for 20 or so minutes before class to encourage coming early!
The playwright Aeschylus fought in the Greco-Persian Wars, and the battle scenes of the naval Battle of Salamis in his play, The Persians, may have been eyewitness accounts. They provide a more enthralling and possibly more accurate account of the battle than Herodotus.
We will also consult Herodotus for the actions the wily Themistocles took to ensure a Greek victory in the Battle of Salamis, tricking the great King Xerxes to defeat, and the Ionian Greek woman General Artemisia.
We also summarize the Greek defeat at the Pass of Thermopylae that preceded the Battle of Salamis.

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.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

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.
Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
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.

2. NAME:Herodotus «Father of History» He was born in 485 B.C. in Halicarnassus (Modern day Bodrum, Mugla, Turkiye) HIS WORK:«Historiae» (a word that passed into Latin and took on its modern meaning of history) It is about Greco Persian Wars, but also a vivid narration of people and regions that he had visited.
3. Herodotus’ work was later divided into nine books, named after the nine Muses .The "MuseofHistory", Clio, representingthefirstbook, followedbyEuterpe, Thaleia, Melpomene, Terpsichore, Erato, Polymnia, OuraniaandCalliopeforbooks 2-9 respectively. Greco Persian wars occurred in 490 and 480 – 479 BC. One of the most important battles at that time was the battle of Marathon.
4. The Marathon Battle As Greeks wan the battle, Persians tried to attack Athens by ship. Athens was poorly fortιfied because all soldiers were at Marathon. So Miltiades with Greek forces went back to protect Athens and a soldier run before them as soon as possible to warn Athenians that Persians were defeated in Marathon but they were coming by ship to Athens. That soldier died as soon as he gave his message and that is the same distance that Marathonodroms run today.(42 km)in Olympic games.
5. Herodotus does not only mention battles. He also describes the way people lived as well as their religious believes. He also talks about the importance of freedom within fare laws and the right government of a country.The roman rhetorical Cicerone gave Herodotus the name «Father of History».
