Warhorse or Regeneration? Birdsong or Blackadder? How have novels and films contributed to the construction – or reconstruction – of national memory? Focusing on the gap between the experience of war and its memorialisation, this workshop will exemplify ways in which the classroom can develop critical reading skills and awareness of key cultural concepts.

From the ill-conceived Brexit referendum onward, Britain’s governing class has embarrassed itself. The Remain campaign was complacent, the Leave campaign brazenly mendacious, and as soon as the result was known, most of the loudest advocates for severing ties with the European Union ran away like naughty schoolboys whose cricket ball had smashed a greenhouse window.
This cartoon by the British cartoonist David Low was published in the Evening Standard newspaper on 21 October 1939. Having destroyed Poland, Hitler and Stalin stroll down their now-shared frontier.

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.

It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte.

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.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

3. The conflict has, for many, been seen through the
fictional prism of dramas such as Oh! What a Lovely
War, The Monocled Mutineer and Blackadder, as a
misbegotten shambles – a series of catastrophic mistakes
perpetrated by an out-of-touch elite. Even to this day
there are Left-wing academics all too happy to feed
those myths.
Michael Gove, The Daily Mail 3 January 2014

10. They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
11. “a special effort to direct the pious intentions of bereaved
relatives into the proper channels”
(Church Crafts League 1915)
“simplicity of statement … so that the gazer can see at once
that the matter recorded is great and significant, and
desires to know more” (Cornhill Magazine 1916)
“to secure combined instead of isolated efforts in erecting
memorials and to protect churches and public buildings
from unsuitable treatment in setting up monuments of the
war” (meeting at the Royal Academy, June 1917)

13. “Year by year their numbers get fewer;
some day no one will march there at all”
(Eric Bogle, The Green Fields of France)
14. I have often tried to imagine myself what he went
though, but now I know, and I shall never forget
(Frances Stevenson, Lloyd George’s secretary)
15. I am 13 and agree entirely with the girl
who said “he means more to me than the
Beatles” (letter to Radio Times)A montage of images that resonated with ideas about
the war already embedded in British modern memory
(Tony Essex, BBC producer)
18. 1914-18 has become a literary war, detached from its
moorings in historical events.
Despite the efforts of revisionist military historians, in
Britain the Great War has remained a saga of personal
tragedies, illuminated by poetry not history, a subject for
remembrance rather than understanding.
…some military historians [have] complained that there
were virtually two Western Fronts – the literary and the
historical – each self-contained, with the former still
dominating the public imagination
David Reynolds The Long Shadow: The Great War and the 20th century
19. Anyone putting forward in public the idea that the war had
been an incompetently run and colossally futile waste of
life, unmitigated by any redeeming heroism, would have
been chased from the street in the early 1920s. By 1998, to
say anything else was to arouse ridicule and anger.
The rise to dominance of a set of largely negative myths
about the First World War in the 1970s derived less from
rehearsed narratives of family experience than from the
selective recasting and recycling of national myths to fit a
new cultural, political, demographic and emotional
context.
Dan Todman The Great War: Myth and memory
21. 1: The parents of those who fought and died

especially those who saw military service

voices that have reinforced - and been affected by –
the modern myth of the war
many whose sons died
grown up with the myth, but with no direct, personal connection
23. EVERMORE, they said, and she wanted to hear: for all future
time … She didn’t believe them. Soon – in fifty years or so –
everyone who had served in the war would be dead; and at
some point after that, everyone who had known anyone who
served would also be dead.
Then the great forgetting could begin, the fading into the
landscape. The war would be levelled to a couple of
museums, a set of demonstration trenches, and a few names,
shorthand for pointless sacrifice.
Might there be one last fiery glow of remembering? …
Might there not be, at some point in the first decades of the
twenty-first century, one final moment, lit by evening sun,
before the whole thing was handed back to the archivists? …
Then, in the space of a wet blink, the gap in the trees would
close and the mown grass disappear, a violent indigo cloud
would cover the sun, and history, gross history, daily history,
would forget. Is this how it would be?
