This document provides an analysis of the influence of Greek myths on Julian Barnes' novel "The Sense of an Ending". It discusses the myths of Eros (love), Hypnos (sleep), and Thanatos (death), and how they represent the three pillars of human existence. It explores how Sigmund Freud incorporated these concepts into his psychoanalytic theory of the life drive (Eros) and death drive (Thanatos). The document then analyzes how these myths and concepts are reflected in Barnes' novel through the themes of sex, death, and the characters' relationships and suicides. It also briefly discusses the myth of Oedipus and how it relates to the novel's exploration of investigating the past.

The Concept on Man: A Contrastive Analysis between Western and Islamic Psycho...Mohd Abbas Abdul Razak
Being placed in the highest pedestal in the hierarchy of creations, man has been the focus in many areas of research, be it in religion, psychology, sociology, anthropology, etc. Regardless in the East or West, the study on man which started in the ancient past is still an on-going one. In the West, the research on man which started with the Greek philosophers has not ended for the reason there does not exist a comprehensive conclusion on the many enigmatic questions that surround the study on man. This scenario has opened the opportunity in West for the emergence of a divergent concept on man. In the Islamic world ever since the heydays of the Islamic civilization (750-1258), Muslim scholars have been constantly researching on the many dimensions of man stated in the Qur’an and Sunnah. Since the quest to understand man is a perennial one, this paper intends to explore and make an exposition on the concepts of man provided by the mainstream Western psychology; namely psychoanalysis, behaviorism and humanistic psychology. In this research too, in a contrastive manner the researchers would like to compare the Western theories on man with that mentioned in the Islamic psychology.

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.
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.
