Tragic Plot-Its constituent parts, Importance of plot, Poet as a maker of plot not story, The construction of plot, the magnitude of plot, organic unity of plot, Fatal and fortunate plots, peripety and anagnorisis, complication and denouement, Freytag pyramid, Aristortle's concern, Dramatic unities
Beckett is believed to have said that the name Godot comes from the French "godillot" meaning a military boot. Beckett fought in the war and so spending long periods of time waiting for messages to arrive would have been commonplace for him. The more common interpretation that it might mean "God" is almost certainly wrong. Beckett apparently stated that if he had meant "God," he would have written "God". Godot: it is relatively common name in French

Relationship between Old Man and ManolinRitaDabhi1
Santiago and Manolin are very close friends in Ernest Hemingway's novel, The Old Man and the Sea. Their age difference adds layers to this friendship. In the beginning, Santiago acts as a mentor to Manolin. He teaches him to fish and takes him out on the boat with him starting as early as age five.
Problems of teaching and learning english in indiaRitaDabhi1
Teaching and learning English in India
has always been a challenge, both for the teachers
and the taught. Widely spoken throughout the world
English took over Indian languages with the coming
of the colonial rule.
Samuel Beckett's 'Waiting for Godot' belongs to the tradition of the Theatre of Absurd. It is unconventional in not depicting any dramatic conflicts. In the play, practically nothing happens, no development is to be found, there is no beginning and no end.
In the present time many people know about the new poor low through the Oliver twist and also through the films and music. We all know that Oliver is one orphan boy who grow in the Workhouse. In the novel Charles Dickens who described the real situation of at that times Workhouse.
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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

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.

3. What is mimesis :
“Mimesis is a term used in philosophy and
Literary criticism . It discribes the process of imitation or
mimicry through which artists portray and interpret the
world . Mimesis is not a Literary divice or technique , but
rather a way of thinking about a work of art”.
● 'Mimesis’ is a derived from the Ancient Greek word
meaning 'imitation’ or ‘representation’.
4. Mimesis in Literature
● Where does the word 'mimesis’ come from?
● The term mimesis was used by the philosopher
Aristotle in his Poetic , his Greek word identified
process of imitation of mimicry with wide range of
applications .
● The evolution of thinking on mimesis suggest that
copying and imitation play a powerful role in poetry &
Literature .
6. Vocal Mimesis:
● Authors and playwright use vocal Mimesis by endowing a
character with the accent , inflection and other speech
patterns of someone of a certain region or socioeconomic
level .
● The classic play , ‘Desire under the Elms’ by Eugene O’Naill.
● In this play O’Naill wrote the dialogue using the speech
pattern found in rural new England. With phonetics,spellings
and abruptly abbreviated words and phrases , O’Naill
captures the unique vocal quality of this region and brings it
to the listener’s era .
7. Behavioral Mimesis :
● Employed by creating character who mirror
actual human response to various scenarios.
● In the Dicken’s classic, A Christmas Carol, the
character Ebenezer Scrooge is a perfect
behavioral representation of a curmudgeonly old
miser .
● Behavioral Mimesis is one of the author’s best
tools from creating believable characters.
8. Plato's view on Mimesis :
● Plato wrote about poetry and Mimesis in
multiple text and was generally this
disporaging toward the art form .
● He sow poetry along with the mimetic form
such as theatrical , as a representation of
nature that how inherently inferior to the
original .
● In Republic, he represent a dilogue between
Socrates and his pupils, where the
philosopher argue that an artist’s copy of an
object and only ever capture a small part of
the as it really is .
● The example of bed.
● Platonic view .
9. Aristotle's view on Mimesis :
● Aristotle's Poetic partly salvaged the reputation
of mimetic art .
● In the book, the philosopher argues that it is a
natural human impulse to make art that imitates
the people place and events around them .
● The Aristotelian concept of Mimesis involved
the poet adds symbolism and structure that lets
their audience draw meaning from the work.
● Aristotle agrees with Plato in calling the poet
and imitetor and creative art, imitation.
● He imitate on of the three objects - things as
they were/are, things as they are said/thought to
be or things as they aught to be.
10. Difference between Mimesis &Diegesis
● The contrasted Mimesis with another term 'Diegesis’.
● Diegesis refers to a narrator that explain the action indirectly
and described the characters mindsets from outside.
● Mimesis, shows rather than explains the action.
● When poet spoke thair own voice, therefore it usually wouldn't
be mimetic,it would be simple Diegesis.
● But when poet assumed a character and spoke in a voice that
was not their , it would be Mimesis .
● The reflecting on the poetic forms of the time, Plato classified
tragedy and comedy as a mimetic, a style of hymn called the
dithyrambas a diegetic, and epicpoetry as a mixture of both.
