This is a lecture on Romanesque and Gothic Art to give to a college introductory survey course. It should take about an hour and a half to an hour and forty-five minutes to work through with students.
The humanistic spirit transformed the way we understand the world. It also influenced art: Painters, sculptors and architects were extremly interested in classical antiquity, which inspired them to create new aesthetic models
The new bourgeois society also revolutionised the artistic tastes. Linked to the new political ideals, the art experienced a new age of development during the 19th century.

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.

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.

Romanesque and Gothic art
1. Romanesque and Gothic
Art
Romanesque and Gothic are types of European Medieval art and architecture.
The term “Romanesque” was coined in the 19th
century.
It means “in the manner of the Romans” and refers to the influence of ancient
Roman art on European art and architecture from about 1000 – 1200 CE.
Romanesque art is closely followed in time and place by Gothic art.
The term “Gothic” was coined during the Renaissance, around 1550, by early art
historian Giorgio Vasari. He felt that this art was so “monstrous and barbarous”
that it evoked the uncouth Goth tribe that led to the downfall of Rome. This style
in art and architecture lasted from about 1150 – 1375 CE.
2. This period marks the rise of the pilgrimage, or journey to a sacred place. Pilgrimages were believed to purify the soul, to
indicate piety, to heal illness, to do penance for sins, and hopefully to achieve salvation. Many pilgrims traveled “the Way
of Saint James” to the Spanish church of Santiago de Compostela.
3. Reliquary of Ste. Foy at Conques Abbey Ste. Foy Abbey, Conques, France, c. 1051-1120
Pilgrims go to churches and venerate their relics. Relics are religious objects connected to a saint or
venerated person. They are often housed in protected, jewel-encrusted containers called reliquaries.
4. Arm Reliquary, Belgium, c. 1230
"It is not an impure idol that receives the worship
of an oracle or of sacrifice, it is a pious memorial,
before which the faithful heart feels more easily
and more strongly touched by solemnity, and
implores more fervently the powerful intercession
of the saint for its sins.“ – Bernard of Angers, 11th
century

like the body part that it is said
to contain.

“After the year of the millennium, which
is now about three years past, there
occurred, throughout the world,
especially in Italy and Gaul, a rebuilding
of church basilicas…It was as if the whole
earth, having cast off the old by shaking
itself, were clothing itself everywhere in
the white robe of the church.”
-- Raoul Glaber, monk
“Lord, I have loved the beauty of your
house, and the place where your glory
dwells.” Psalm 26:8

19. Christ leading crusaders into battle, detail from an Apocalypse,
with commentary (The "Queen Mary Apocalypse"), early 14th
century, f. 37 (British Library)
The crusades (1096-99, 1147-49, 1189-92, and six
more) were supposedly holy wars. Knights would
attack holy lands like Jerusalem to wrest these lands
from the Muslims and win then back for Christendom.
Crusade means “the taking of the cross.”
Crusading was often seen as penitential warfare that
would allow knights to make amends to God for their
sins and to achieve salvation. In this way, crusades
were a type of pilgrimage.
Military orders, like the Knights Templar, were
religious orders in which members took traditional
monastic vows like poverty, chastity, and obedience,
and fought on behalf of the Christian faith.
“The knight of Christ is glorified in slaying the infidel
because thereby Christ is glorified.”
-- Bernard of Clairvaux

28. The Beginning of the Gothic Style
Choir of the Abbey of St. Denis, France, 1140-44
“The dull mind rises to the truth through material things, and is
resurrected from its former submersion when the light is
seen.” – Abbott Suger
Suger called the colored light that would stream in the stained
glass windows lux nova (new light).
29. “heavenly light”: new imagery, similar iconography

35. Notre Dame, Chartres Cathedral, France,

Key Architectural Developments of
the Gothic Style:
•Pointed arches instead of round
arches. Pointed arches are
stronger and look taller. They
direct the eye upward.
•Rib vaults instead of barrel vaults.
Rib vaults do not need as much
support from walls; their thrust is
down more than out.
•Flying buttresses – external
supports hold up the walls, which
makes space for…
•Stained Glass Windows
The Gothic is about
light and height.

“The glass windows in a church are Holy
Scriptures, which expel the wind and the rain,
that is, all things hurtful, but transmit the light of
the True Sun, that is, God, into the hearts of the
faithful.” – William Durandus, Bishop of Mende
in southern France
“To adore images is one thing; to teach with
their help what should be adored is another.
What Scripture is to the educated, images are to
the ignorant … they read in them what they
cannot read in books.” – Pope Gregory the Great
