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.
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.

Research Into Drama Genre- A2 Media Film
1. THE GENRE RESEARCH
Our group have decided to go for the Drama genre for our short
film.
2. What is a Drama Film:
A drama film is a film genre that depends
mostly on in-depth development of realistic
characters and situations dealing with
emotional themes such as Peer Pressure,
Bullying and Crimes.
Drama can be interlaced with other genres
such as comedy, tragedy, action, etc.
3. Conventions of a Drama Film:
• Conveys real life situations with realistic characters, settings
and stories.
• Conveys the journey which the character takes on and it shows
the development of the characters.
• The purpose of it is to send subtle message and move the
audience emotionally.
• Audience related- Eg: Teenagers can relate to the theme of
Bullying.
• Form of realization at the end that can either be positive or
negative.
• Drama film are mostly based on a true story or shows the
reality of a real life situation that can occur to anyone and gives
out a subtle message about how to deal with the issue.
• It includes climaxes and dramatic scenes to keep the audience
on their sit.
• Sometimes dramas have a twist in the end.
4. Sub-Genres and Hybrid
Our Drama film doesn’t really fit within a sub- genre and it is not a
hybrid, although it contains elements of other genres such as fast
phased running which we will have in our film which is like the action
film and it contains moralistic messages like docudrama.
As a snapshot into our main protagonist’s life she will be battling her
demons. This drama is a tragedy because the main protagonist fails to
overcome her demons that leads her back to her parents house and
become child like. Unlike her friends, she fails to come of age and step
into becoming an adult and fulfilling her dreams.
5. Audience:
• There are many types of Drama so we must be clear about who our
audience is:
• Our target audience are teenagers from age 13-18+. This is the time in a teenage
life where they may face similar issues addressed in our film.
• Our main theme of our drama film is “Peer Pressure” which is one way we are
going to attract our target audience because this issue is something they can
relate to, so they are likely to watch it and with the subtle message our film will
gives, it will ensure that they know how to deal with it if they face the similar
issues after watching our film. This is one of our main aim, it is to get the message
out to our targeted audience.
• Other ways we will attract the audience is through using teenage characters.
Also, we will be careful in the way we decide to represent the characters, for
example, whether they should be represented negatively or positively.
• We will compose our own non diegetic music which will be modern and fast paced
at some point through out the film which will make it more exciting to our
audience. Non diegetic music is not always used but as our audience is
teenagers we will use it to attract them.
8. Codes and Conventions of Short
Films:
• It has 2-3 characters and are portrayed in a short amount of time.
• It contains a twist either Beginning, Middle or End. This makes it
appealing to the audience as they become unaware of the twist and
when it occurs it creates the feeling of excitement and desperation to
find out more. Thus it keeps the audience interested.
• They can also be moralistic which fits with our film.
• The storylines are set in everyday setting and this helps audience
relate to the film and it makes them look forward to the climax or
resolution of the situation.
• It uses Narrative Enigmas- this is where audience doesn’t fully
understand the starting point and it is sometimes revealed during the
middle of the film or the end.
• Also uses Hermeneutic Codes- appears at the beginning of the
story creating unexplained or unanswered questions, thus creating
tensions that engages the audience.
• It uses Proairetic Code- refers to mere actions. Plots that leads to
another actions. Suspense is created by actions rather than by a
viewer's wish to have mysterious explained.
