A presentation analysing Philip Larkin's 'Mr Bleaney', a poem about freedom, death and loss, home and isolation from his collection 'The Whitsun Weddings'
No poet has observed animals more accurately than Ted Hughes has done. His depiction of the animals observed is remarkable, vivid, startling, and truthful. He relates that animal to other creatures and also to human experiences and human concepts; represents the typical stresses and contradiction of human nature and also of the Nature.

Nikolai Vasil’evich Gogol (1809-1852)
“The Overcoat”
Gogol’s Literary Input
The contemporary Russian literature considers Gogol its teacher. In his writings a
spearing power of laughter is connected with tragic upheavals. Gogol was able to find a common
root for the comic and the tragic. Yet despite of his notable destiny in literature and art, the
endless publication of his works in Russia and abroad, and successful screen adaptations of his
stories, Gogol is not easy to read.
Even for his own contemporaries Gogol was the person who constantly surprised them
with all kinds of mysteries surrounding his persona and with his creativity. Cheerful and gloomy,
outgoing and secretive, sad and arrogant in his moralizing, Gogol turned out to be impossible to
comprehend. Even his appearance seemed quite different to his contemporaries. This is how one
of his contemporaries, the writer Aksakov, describes him: “cleanly shaved dandy in a
fashionable jacket,” “kindness and love to everybody is sparkling in his eyes,” “long blond hair,”
“serious and striving to the elevated,” he was making “original and funny jokes which provoked
an uncontrollable laughter.” And here is what another writer, Danilevsky, tells about Gogol,
“Brown long hair,” “small gentle eyes looked kindly but carefully.” But the most exact portrait
of Gogol belongs to the artist, Ivanov, who lived close to Gogol in Rome, “In the real life, he is
all virtuous and sober. He hates pettiness and sincerely fights with it;” “spiritually
beautiful…The thoughts about Russia are the vital part of his existence.”
Gogol’s childhood of a sun of a small Ukrainian landowner was spent peacefully in the
family estate of Vasil’evka, near the city of Poltava (Ukraine, which is now an independent
country, in the 19th century was a part of the Russian Empire). Everything was slow here like
nature itself. A complete freedom: the boy did not have strict governors and teachers and before
entering the school, he was taught by a student of a religious seminary, who had no restrictions
for the boy whatsoever. Their neighbor, a rich landowner, had his own theatre in which serfs
were performing and Gogol’s father wrote plays for this theatre. Sometimes Nikolai with his
parents performed in it.
Gogol continued his studies in the city gymnasia (boarding school) of Nezhin; the
education he had received was thorough and deep. At school, a future writer was characterized as
the one who was capable of noticing the most prominent features of his friend and teachers and
of writing humoristic characteristics on them. He also continued playing in the school theatre.
But before reaching the heights in literature, Gogol had to go through numerous misfortunes. The
year of the Decembrists uprising, 1825, during which his father passed away and Russia’s tsarist
regime was shaken for the first time, made Gogol grow up quickly. Now he had to think about

Henrik Ibsen was born to Knud Ibsen and Marichen
Altenburg, a relatively well-to-do merchant family, in the
small port town of Skien, Norway.
He was a descendant of some of the oldest and most
distinguished families of Norway, including the Paus family.
Shortly after his birth his family's fortunes became very bad.
By successfully integrating guided wave laser optics, microfluidics and robust data analysis software, researchers at Norton Scientific have invented a proprietary laser-based product that is now being marketed to laboratories and universities around the world.
Targeting proteomics applications including crystallographers, the company is introducing this low-cost analytical system to researchers in biopharmaceutical and healthcare, advanced materials, food and beverage, bio-materials and in-water pollution monitoring.
Norton intends to market simple-to-use products that can be used by technicians, rather than analysts, to be incorporated into any laboratories’ own process control systems. Due to various applications of these materials, “macromolecule” covers the entire range of polymers and biopolymers − including proteins and peptides − that can be analysed using the intellectual property owned by NSI, such as contained in the revolutionary protein aggregation monitor (PAM).

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 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.

9. • In Abbas’s Overcoat, the
young-man receives respect
& good response because of
outlook.
• In new overcoat Akaky also
receives warmth from his
colleagues. So it is a slap on
the society’s face as it judges
form outlook only.
• Akaky’s dedication and hard
work seems to be worthless
whereas his new overcoat
attracts everybody.
• Both characters of the two
writers also get attracted
towards the people only
because of their dresses as in
Abbas’ overcoat – ‘It was their
clothes rather than their faces
that attracted his attention.’
10. • Both characters feel
themselves as important
figures of society in overcoat.
• Akaky is an unimportant and
dead part of the society in old
overcoat but soon after
wearing the new coat he
becomes important. He starts
looking beyond his range and
having social life. He
becomes lively and sees
shops, girls, their dresses and
for the first time in his life he
spends evening with his
colleagues.
• Abbas’ young-man is so lively
and happy in overcoat. His
smiles, confidence, gate and
twirling of willow-stick in joyful
mood is all because of his
overcoat.
11. • The young-man of Abbas has
worn the overcoat to fit in the
society whereas from inside
he is dirty. Covering his inner
self under an overcoat, he
seems to be very happy and
satisfied.
• Akaky is satisfied with his old
overcoat and only goes for
mending it since he feels cold
in it. He has nothing to do with
the society and their thoughts
about him.
• So the motifs of wearing the
overcoats are in contrast.
12. • Both the stories depict
different yardsticks for the
status.
• Abbas’s character enjoys
repute because of overcoat
and good looks whereas
Gogol’s ‘Important person’
enjoys good status because
of ‘disregard of the poor and
having a mistress’ just
because of that is what is
fashionable for high ranking
officials.
• Being important is relative as
in our society true followers of
west depicted as important
whereas in Russia those who
follow the fowl ways and
hierarchy like ‘important
person’ are considered
important.
13. • Akaky exercises all the fair
means and does not bribe or
butter his supervisors. Hence
he is made to stand as a clerk
throughout his life whereas
young people go otherwise
and promoted to higher ranks.
• Gogol establishes a moral
lesson as people can an be
horribly cruel to one another,
especially through systems of
dehumanization or
oppressions and its crucial to
recognize that we are all, at
heart, “brothers”.
• Abbas’s Overcoat also shows
inability of the system to
provide necessary
requirement to meet both
ends and people are
compelled to hide themselves
under superficial overcoats.
14. • Supernatural element is seen
in the Gogol’s story and story
goes further even after the
death of the protagonist.
• Abbas’s overcoat has no
supernatural element and
story ends on the tragic death
of the protagonist.
• Revenge is an element of
contrast as it is taken through
the Akaky’s ghost in Gogol’s
story.
• No revenge is seen in
Abbas’s overcoat.
15. • Abbas used the willow stick in
the story symbolically as it is
used by the British for support
but at the end when the
protagonist is found in trouble
that support is seen to be lost
somewhere and the story
ends with it.
• Gogol’s ‘Important Person’ is
a support in Russian society
that fails to aid the protagonist
in the very moment of trouble.
16. • Akaky’s revenge is taken by
his ghost which appears after
his death.
• Existence of another ghosts in
the society shows that there
are individuals other than
Akaky who have been
wronged by their superiors in
Russia.
• The ghosts great strength
illustrated by his large fist and
moustaches intimate us that
the power of oppressed is
growing.
• No such ghosts are found in
Abbas’ work.
17. • Akaky is shown an un-
important figure while he lives
and after death he becomes
important and topic of the
town. He gains significance
after the death.
• Abbas’ young-man is
important and reputable until
he remains hidden under the
overcoat while he lives. After
death he becomes
insignificant.
18. • Anger is found in both the
characters. In one it is
repressed and in others it is
expressed.
• Akaky’s cursing just before
his death shows his
expressed anger regarding
his maltreatment and injustice
in his life and after death
towards the society and the
‘important person’.
• Abbas’ character exhibits
repressed anger and only
appears to be smiling
throughout the story but his
death reveals the tragic story
and reader actually comes to
understand the meaning of
his smile.
19. • Akaky’s poverty does not
allow him to buy a new
overcoat and he suffers
almost a year to save enough
money for it.
• It effects him even after his
death as he is buried in the
cheapest possible coffin and
nothing notable is found from
his residence.
• Abbas’ young-man also
suffers it after his death when
his overcoat is removed and
pockets are searched.
20. • Gogol emphasizes the value
of material goods not only for
basic human survival but also
for emotional and spiritual
well being. His comparison of
the coat to a wife illustrates
the sense of comfort and
safety that garment will bring.
• Having new overcoat changes
the whole perspective of life in
Akaky.
• Abbas is short of space for
such details but he also
establishes it through the
smiles and comforts of the his
character.
21. • Gogol depicts Akaky as an
unimpressive character
throughout his story through
which he wins sympathy of
the reader.
• Abbas young-man is shown
very well-to-do throughout
and at the end his reality
touches the readers.
