Wilfred Owen was a British poet who wrote some of the best British poetry on World War I. He was born in 1893 in Oswestry, Shropshire and died in 1918. Owen initially studied to become a pastor but became disillusioned with religion and turned to poetry. He experienced the horrors of World War I firsthand and used his poetry to depict the grim realities of war. His poems became some of the most famous condemnations of war and descriptions of its psychological and physical impacts on soldiers.

In this slide, we will discuss the novel The Rainbow by DH Lawrence. The novel revolves around the story of three generations of Brangwen Family who live at Marsh Farms. Tom and Lydia, Anna and Will, Ursula and Skrebensky.
E.M. Forster's A Passage to India concerns the relations between the English and the native population of India during the colonial period in which Britain ruled India. The novel takes place primarily in Chandrapore, a city along the Ganges River notable only for the nearby Marabar caves.
"For poetry the idea is everything; the rest is a world of illusion, of divine illusion. Poetry attaches its emotion to the idea; the idea is fact."
This is said by Matthew Arnold. According to him, IDEA is supreme and in poetry, it is the idea that matters, that are attached by poetry through emotions. According to him THE FUNCTION OF POETRY is to interpret life for us, to console us, to sustain us. He says if SCIENCE IS APPEARANCE then the POETRY IS EXPRESSION and there is no appearance without expression.
Then Arnold talks about setting our standard for poetry high. We must accustom ourselves to HIGH STANDARD and STRICT JUDGEMENT and there is no place for CHARLATANISM in poetry. Charlatanism is for confusing the difference between excellent and inferior, sound and unsound or only half sound, true and untrue or only half true. Judging with little differences has paramount importance, so there is no place for charlatanism in poetry.

· 1.Violence in PoetryGM225
The theme of violence in the poetry of Yeats and Owen were brought on by WWI. Yeats, from Ireland had the perspective of an Irishmen going through the Irish revolts and the Easter Uprising. His poem "Easter, 1916" was written about the Easter Uprising that happened because the British promised the Irish that they would let them rule over their country, Ireland in 1914. When WWI broke out, the English put that promise on the back burner, which enraged the Irish. Many that participated in the uprising, especially it's leaders were executed. Yeats, knowing many of them, was troubled by it.
"We know their dream; enough
To know they dreamed and are dead;"
Lines 70-71, Yeats states that they had a dream, of the Irish becoming free, yet that dream is ultimately why they are now dead.
Owen was British and wrote much about WWI and the devastation it brought. His poems give a powerful image as to what the soldiers went through in the war. The opening line of "Anthem of Doomed Youth":
"What passing-bells for these who die as cattle?"
Gives a horrible image that the soldiers that were going off to war were like a herd of cattle heading to be slaughtered. In lines 21-24 of Dulce et Decorum Est, Owen gave another horrible image.
"If you could hear, at every jolt, the blood
Come gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs,
Obscene as cancer, bitter as the cud
Of vile, incurable sores on innocent tongues,–"
This gives a chilling description of what war is/was like for soldiers. Even the ones that survive had/have to deal with the memories of what they saw, which is what Owen described in this poem.
These poets could not escape the theme of violence in their lives and so it came through in their works.
· 2.Yeats & OwensVT225
Yeats and Wilfred Owen were poets in the early 1900’s, who were very much influence by war. Owen’s writing shows a want to depict the actual experience of battle to people, but Yeats was a little condescending towards Owen’s want. Yeats felt that poetry should be used as an escape from such a bloody hell. He was also very involved with the politics of the time. Yeats used some of his poems to make political statements such as September 1913, in which he criticized and mocked the Irish Catholic middle-classes, calling them incapable of rising up and revolting, and Eater 1916, in which recants the ridicule from his previous poem.
Although Yeats speaks of things in a slightly violent way from poem to poem, Owen’s work his almost entirely dedicated to trying to depict his own experiences. When analyzing Wilfred Owen’s poems such as, Anthem for Doomed Youth or Strange Meeting, you will notice that his works are quite graphic in its depictions of the battlefields. This tendency to write about battle and war seems to come from influences of World War I. Strange Meeting,however violent it may seem, is a very int ...

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.

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
