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

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.

2. Main Themes
There are many themes explored in the play,
some examples are:
Love
Sex
Hate
Death
Fate
Loyalty
Language and Word play
3. Theme of
Love
Love is a word that means many different things to many different people. Romeo
starts the play captivated by Rosaline (Act 1, Scene 1), a gorgeous Capulet with no
interest in him, in a childish love. His first encounter with his “true” love Juliet
seems like puppy love. The two star crossed lovers are in different warring
families but their love over comes their families hatred resolving with them both
dying in each others arms, this love, puts a stop to the feud.
Throughout the play love becomes a violent and drastic overpowering force that
clouds the families values, loyalty and rational thought.
“Deny thy father, and refuse thy name”
“My only love sprung from my only hate”
Love Examples in the Play
Love causes Romeo and Juliet to act irrationally:
Example: Romeo abandons his cousin Benvolio and best friend Mercutio to go to
Juliet's garden; Romeo returns to Verona after his banishment to be with Juliet.
It is also described as a kind of magic:
Example: “ Alike bewitched by charm of looks”
Romeo and Juliet are consumed be thoughts of death:
Example:” if all else fail, myself have power to die”
Its used to make decisions or influence them.
“if my heart’s dear love”
4. Other Types of Love
Nurse and Mercutio physical love-sexual puns and tawdry
images.
Paris represents a contractual love based on family
connections only and is only marrying Juliet for her
“name” only.
Romeo has a lust for Rosaline and only for her looks.
Love is also a cause of violence
5. Theme of
Sex
In the hormone-charged atmosphere of Romeo and
Juliet, it seems that pretty much everything is about
sex. A boy and girl from warring families fall in love,
and their relationship is marked by both intense
chemistry and the constant threat of violence. Romeo
and Juliet live in Verona, a city where the dirty jokes
are constant, and even asking the time of day acquires
a sexual connotation. ("The bawdy hand of the dial is
now upon the prick of noon," -Mercutio.) In this hyper-
sexual atmosphere, it can be tempting to interpret the
protagonists' young love as primarily physical. Their
relationship, however, delineates a relationship
between sex and love that eludes the stereotypes other
characters try to project on them
6. Theme of
Hate
Hate- the two families hate each other and are constantly
disagreeing and feuding causing many deaths and eventually
their own children's deaths. Although no-one knows the reason
for all this chaos.
Hate in Romeo and Juliet is paired with love as they are two
sides of the same coin. In the play Romeo and Juliet turn their
hatred into an insatiable passion for each other that ends up
propelling themselves to their own tragic deaths.
Romeo and Juliet's love is threatened constantly by a society
full of hate
The honour code that governs the feuding families sees the end
of Romeo, Juliet,Mercutio, Tybalt and Paris.,
Quotes Of Hate
“That’s him, that villain, Romeo”-Tybalt
“Can god be jealous and hateful?”-Juliet
7. Theme of
Death
Death is mentioned a lot, in lots of different ways,
such as ‘we were born to die’ or ‘cold death’, and ‘death
darting eye’. Mercutio, Tybalt, Paris, Romeo and
Juliet all die during the play.
Death is never far away in the divided world of
Verona
Images of death: ‘death marked’, ‘ultimately death’,
‘death bed’
Death is embodied throughout as a compelling
connection between hate and violence and in
conclusion, passion.
8. Theme of ‘ A Pair Of Star-crossed
Fate Lovers’
The mechanism of fate works in all of the events
surrounding Romeo and Juliet's Life.
The family feud
Friar Lawrence’s letter being mislaid
The timing of Romeo’s death and Juliet’s awakening
These events are not coincidences but are indications of
fate that bring the unavoidable outcome of Romeo and
Juliet’s death.
Romeo and Juliet are Star-crossed lovers and are fated
to die together.
Quotes of Fate
“I dreamt my lady came found me dead”- Romeo
“Then I defy you, stars!”- Romeo
9. Minor
Theme of
Themes Loyalty
Some characters have certain loyalties, like Nurse to Juliet, the
Friar to Romeo and The Montague's and the Capulet's to their own
blood relatives. These loyalties are hard to respect when certain
choices have to be made.
Examples of Loyalty:
-Mercutio to Romeo( risks his life and goes with Romeo to see the
Nurse who is a Capulet)
-Tybalt kills Mercutio so in revenge Romeo kills Tybalt
-Romeo" Good man why are you crying”, Benvolio” I’m crying
because your sad”
-There is loyalty between Romeo, Juliet and Father Lawrence as
well as trust.
10. Theme of
Language and Wordplay
Romeo and Juliet constantly play with language. They rhyme and
create puns. Romeo and Juliet play with language to escape the
world. They claim that they are not a part of their families the
Montague's and Capulet's: they use words to try to transform
day, for a moment, into night: they hide their love even while
secretly admitting it. Language in Romeo and Juliet serves two
purposes. It allows some characters to escape the world into
intense love while it allows other characters to reveal that the
world of love, honor, and high ideals are just masks people use
to cover their animal instincts.
