Homer was an 8th century BC Greek poet believed to have authored the epic poems The Iliad and The Odyssey. The Iliad describes the Trojan War and centers around the warrior Achilles, while The Odyssey follows Odysseus' journey home after the war. Though some dispute Homer's historicity, the poems provide insights into ancient Greek values like honor and courage. Both works have greatly influenced European literature and art for over 3,000 years. However, it remains uncertain if the stories as we know them today precisely reflect Homer's original telling.

A story about storytelling, inspired by the excellent presentation Meet Henry : http://www.slideshare.net/chereemoore/meet-henry Except this time the main character is not an anonymous, it is the greatest poet of all time : Homer He was not so different from us. He too had ideas to share and his stroke of genius was to use stories and storytelling to make them stick. Disover how he did it in this slidestory!

Summary of Homer’s Iliad: Warrior Culture of Ancient Greece

Reflections on Morality, Philosophy, and History

Today we reflect on a summary of the Iliad by Homer. We cannot truly understand the culture of the ancient Greeks, and Greek philosophy, culture and history, not to mention the Western philosophical tradition, without becoming familiar with Homer’s works, the Iliad and the Odyssey. Why is the RAGE of Achilles the first word of the saga? Why did Achilles choose to boycott the battles when his concubine Briseis was taken away from him? How does the Iliad celebrate both the glory and the futility of war? What role did concubines play both in ancient warfare and in ancient warrior cultures? How similar were the warrior cultures of ancient Greece and the American Indians?

The Iliad, the Basis of Greek Culture and the Western Philosophical Tradition

Reflections on Morality, Philosophy, and History

We cannot truly understand the culture of the ancient Greeks, and Greek philosophy, culture and history, and also the Western philosophical tradition, without becoming familiar with Homer’s works, the Iliad and the Odyssey. The Iliad and Odyssey depict a warrior culture. All ancient cultures were warrior cultures out of necessity. War was a deadly business, if an ancient city-state lost a major war, often the men would be slain, and the women and children would be sold into slavery. Most of the slaves of the ancient world were either captured by pirates or enslaved during war. Both ancient Rome and Ancient Greece were warrior cultures, the cultures of the nations of Israel and Judah in the Old Testament were warrior cultures, and all ancient and medieval cultures were warrior cultures until the rise of the modern nation-state. To properly interpret Greek Philosophy and History, the Western Philosophical tradition, and the Old Testament, we must realize that these ancient cultures were rooted in a warrior ethos.

Achilles Heel (Im)Mortality In The Iliad

Sabrina Ball

The Warrior Cultures of the Iliad and the American Indian, Bravely Visiting t...

Reflections on Morality, Philosophy, and History

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.

How to Break the cycle of negative Thoughts

Col Mukteshwar Prasad

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”.

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.
