The document discusses Homer and his epic poem The Iliad. It introduces some of the key topics around Homer's identity and authorship, known as the "Homeric Question," as Homer is believed to have lived around 800 BC, hundreds of years after the Trojan War which is the subject of The Iliad. The document also discusses how The Iliad has retained its relevance and power over many different cultures throughout history due to its exploration of universal themes like war, love, and ethics.

Decolonizing the African Mind: Further Analysis and Strategy by Dr. Uhuru Hotep RBG Communiversity
The central objective in decolonizing the African mind is to overthrow the authority which alien traditions exercise over the African. This demands the dismantling of white supremacist beliefs, and the structures which uphold them, in every area of African life. It must be stressed, however,that decolonization does not mean ignorance of foreign traditions; it simply means denial of their authority and withdrawal of allegiance from them.-Chinweizu-
Knowledge is power - this insight is at least four centuries old, formulated by philosopher Francis Bacon during the Enlightenment. His statement has lost nothing in terms of relevance and significance: Knowledge is power, and education is the fundamental precondition for political development, democracy and social justice. This paper explores how African writer Ngugi Wa Thiong’o establishes the relationship between the language and power in the process of decolonising the mind. On the other hand, Freire‟s generative themes is a student centered system of learning that challenges how knowledge is constructed in the formal education system and in society at large. Freire’s student centered approach stands in stark contrast to conventional educational practice, which he referred to as the “banking approach” to education. Freire has been able to draw upon and weave together a number of strands of thinking about educational practice and liberation .His theoretical innovations have had a considerable impact on the development of educational practice all over the world.

The Iliad, a warrior saga, has two visiting enemy camp stories. To truly highlight the hazards of such visits, and to gain a better understanding of how life was lived in a warrior society, we will compare these stories to a few of the visiting enemy camp stories a remarkable collection of short stories in the “Tales of the Northwest,” a collection of remarkable stories of Indian life and culture in the American frontier.
One of the most courageous characters of the Iliad is Chryses, the father of Chryseis, priest to Apollo, who ALONE visits the armed camp of the enemy, the camp of the Greeks, bringing a ransom for his beloved daughter, Chryseis, whom King Agamemnon has captured as his concubine. Another courageous figure is King Priam, who with a disguised god visits the enemy camp of the Achaeans to ransom the body of his son Hector, whom Achilles has been dragging behind his chariot around the walls of Troy, so the Trojans can properly bury the dead Hector to release his soul to the underworld.
The stories in the “Tales of the Northwest” chronicles multiple visiting enemy camp stories where fathers ransom their captured daughters, and where braves ransom their captures wives, all of which are similar to these scenes in the saga of the Iliad. The first few stories illustrate the maxim that in these tense enemy camp meetings hospitality must be shown, a meal must be shared, and in the Indian versions everyone must take a smoke from the shared pipe. Both host and guest must be respectful, lest them doom their fate. In both stories an enemy Indian band had killed most of the family or tribe, except for the Indian daughter or wife whom the brave visitor seeks to ransom.
We have a final story of how Pope Leo successfully and bravely rides into the enemy camp of Attila the Hun, unarmed, and persuades him not to invade and sack Rome.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)

In Odoo, the multi-company feature allows you to manage multiple companies within a single Odoo database instance. Each company can have its own configurations while still sharing common resources such as products, customers, and suppliers.
2. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
Aims:
• To Introduce Homer and the Iliad.
Objectives:
1. Students will discuss the Homeric questions.
2. Students will predict reasons for the contemporary relevance
of the Iliad.
3. Students will watch the clip.
4. Students will discuss the nature of the Iliad.
3. HOMER – ‘THE HOMERIC QUESTION’
• Most historians think ‘Homer’ lived in about 800 B.C.
• That is about 400 years after the Trojan war.
• So?
• Historians think the Iliad and Odyssey were refined and written
down in around this period.
• There is real debate about whether Homer existed or not.
• This is the Homeric question. Does it matter?
• The language and style of the Iliad suggest he could have been
from Smyrna in modern Turkey.
6. THE ILIAD
• A central text to both Greek and western culture.
• Knowledge of the Iliad was a sign of education from Classical
Greece through to Victorian England.
• How can a book retain its power and relevance through so many
different cultures?
• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccdneMYVVVo
7. THE ILIAD
• The Iliad is arguably the first Western work of literature.
• The themes of war, love ,sacrifice ,ethics and the perfidy of the
gods ring true throughout the ages.
• The writing is of a very high quality and many of his similes and
metaphors are still used today.
8. THE ILIAD
• The Iliad is a written version of hundreds of years of oral
history. So?
• Alexander the Great slept with a copy.
• It is still used in military academies around the world.
• Most papyrus fragments from the ancient world are of the
Iliad.
• Throughout the last 120 years archaeologists have spent a
fortune trying to prove that the Iliad is true. Why?
