East Asian literature has a long history, with China having an unbroken literary tradition dating back to the 14th century BCE. Japan was influenced by Chinese language and literature but developed unique genres like haiku. Korean poetry was originally written in Classical Chinese but later included transliterations of Chinese works. Indian literature has roots in ancient Hindu scriptures like the Vedas, Brahmanas, and Upanishads. Contemporary Asian writers have continued strong literary traditions while also being influenced by Western ideas, with some facing challenges around censorship and political conflicts.
What is Literature?
Literature broadly is any collection of written work, but it is also used more narrowly for writings specifically considered to be an art form, especially prose fiction, drama, and poetry. In recent centuries, the definition has expanded to include oral literature, much of which has been transcribed. Literature is a method of recording, preserving, and transmitting knowledge and entertainment, and can also have a social, psychological, spiritual, or political role.

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 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.

2. How the Growth Occurred
• East Asia is a good place to start this literary exploration. China, one of
the world’s cradles of civilization, has had an unbroken literary tradition
that started back in the 14th century BCE. This unfathomable longevity
was achieved in large part, thanks to the preservation of the Chinese
language (both in the spoken and written aspects) across 3,000 years.
• Tang Dynasty – Finest Era of Chinese Literature
• Tu Fu, Li Po, and Wang Wei
3. Japan, a close neighbor of China, also has a rich literary history.
Though evidently influenced by the Chinese language and Chinese
literature, the Japanese tradition has nevertheless created its unique
legacy. This includes the world-renowned poetic genre known as the
haiku (a short descriptive poem with 17 syllables) and the diverse
forms of theater such as the Noh and the Kabuki.
4. Rounding up this exploration of East Asia is a discussion of the
Korean tradition. China's cultural dominance in the region
became even more evident when Korean poets wrote poetry in
Classical Chinese as early as the 4th century CE. Three centuries
later, this progressed to transliterations of Chinese works.
5. Over in South Asia, India is the clear cultural giant. The roots of Indian
literature may be traced to the hallmark Hindu writings, such as the
Veda, the Brahmanas, and the Upanishads.
Veda - The most ancient Hindu scriptures, written in early Sanskrit and
containing hymns, philosophy, and guidance on ritual for the priests of
Vedic religion.
Brahmanas - Brahmanas are ancient Indian texts. These consist of
prose commentaries on the four Vedas, the oldest Hindu sacred texts,
in which the word, yoga, is first used and defined.
Upanishads - The Sanskrit term Upaniṣad (from upa "by" and ni-ṣad
"sit down") translates to "sitting down near", referring to the student
sitting down near the teacher while receiving spiritual knowledge.
7. China - In Modern times, Chinese writers have remained
prolific. Though the social impact of literature may be as
monumental as it was in the past, the Chinese literary tradition
is nevertheless prosperous.
8. Mo Yan - A fictionist who
won the 2012 Nobel Prize for
Literature.
9. Japan - Ever since the Meiji Restoration in the 19th
century, Western influences have permeated Japanese
literature. Manifestations of this include the pioneering
of modern Japanese novels, translations of poetry
from the West, and reinventions of traditional Japanese
poetic forms like the tanka and the haiku.
10. Abe Kobo - He is best
known for his 1962
novel The Woman in the
Dunes which was made
into an award-winning film
by Hiroshi Teshigahara in
1964.
11.
12. Mishima Yukio - as a
writer was extremely prolific,
with thirty-four novels,
almost two hundred short
stories, seventy plays, and
countless essays, poems,
interviews, and more to his
name.
13. Korea - The Korean War, which led to the creation of
North Korea and South Korea, has created an indelible
mark on Korean literature. Themes of alienation,
conscience, and disintegration have been present in
Korean works since the 1950s.
14. India - India gained independence in the 20th
century, but the impact of colonial rule continued
to manifest through the endurance of the English
language and the emergence of postcolonial texts.
Several Indian writers became highly accomplished,
internationally acclaimed names.
15. Rabindranath Tagore
(1861 – 1941) is best
known as a poet, and in
1913 was the first non-
European writer to be
awarded the Nobel Prize
for Literature.
16. Central Asia - Russian influence continued to have
a stronghold on literature from Central Asia.
During the era of the Soviet Union, Abdullah
Qadiriy produced pioneering novels in the Uzbek
language and Mukhtar Auez-uli became a
noteworthy writer in Kazakh.
17. Chinghiz Aytmatov -
was a Kyrgyz author who
wrote mainly in Russian,
but also in Kyrgyz. He is
one of the best-known
figures in Kyrgyzstan's
literature.
18. His representative works :
'Jamila' (1958),
'The First Teacher (1967),
'Farewell, Gyulsary!' (1967),
'The White Ship' (1972), and
'The Day Lasts More Than a Hundred Years (1988)
was translated into more than 20 languages across the world.
19. Arabic Tradition - The issue of freedom of expression has
become problematic for Arabic writers in the 21st century.
Another pressing concern is the tension between religious and
secular movements-a conflict that also impacts the way that
Arabic writers produce their texts.
20. Southeast Asia - Colonial and postcolonial experiences
were evident in Burmese works in the 20th century; to
this day, these themes are still dominant. In Thailand, the
influence of Western literature became truly pronounced
after the country came into contact with the West during
World War II.
