Zecharia Sitchin o 12º Planeta Completo
Zecharia Sitchin, em sua auto apresentação, na parte de trás de seus livros delirantes, e por toda
a Internet, sempre tentou insinuar que ele havia se formado em idiomas antigos e em história
antiga. Mas a verdade simplesmente é outra: Zecharia Sitchin se formou na Escola de Economia
de Londres, Universidade de Londres, graduando-se em História da Economia.
Na época em que Zecharia Sitchin escreveu os seus livros de Contos de Fadas "Nibiruanos-
Annunakianos", não havia absolutamente nenhuma chance de se traduzir a escrita Suméria
denominada cuneiforme, o Sumério Antigo, corretamente, sem que a pessoa tivesse estudado,
durante muito tempo, completa e profundamente este idioma e as tabuletas Sumérias/Babilônicas
antigas e, seguramente, não é estudando a História da Economia , uma disciplina na qual Zecharia
Sitchin se graduou em Londres.
A língua Suméria é uma língua isolada, o que significa que este idioma não está diretamente
relacionado a nenhuma outra língua conhecida, apesar das várias tentativas equivocadas de se
provar ligações com outros idiomas. A língua Suméria é aglutinante, ou seja, os morfemas (as
menores unidades com o sentido da língua) se justapõem para formar palavras.

Greek Mythology's Influence
This document provides a table comparing Greek and Roman gods, listing their names in each tradition and their domains of rule. It shows that many Greek gods have direct counterparts in Roman mythology with parallel roles and functions. Key gods listed include Zeus/Jupiter as king, Hera/Juno as queen, Hermes/Mercury as messenger, and gods of the sea, fire, wine, wisdom, hunting, harvest, sun, war, and underworld.
Intro to Orpheus Greek Myth
This PowerPoint serves as an introduction to terms, people, and places mentioned in the myth of Orpheus. This was designed for 7th grade English/Language Arts students.
Symbolism
The document discusses different types of symbols people encounter in everyday life, including visual symbols like traffic lights, written symbols, musical and sound symbols, nonverbal symbols, and verbal symbols. It prompts readers to make a list of common symbols within these categories and discusses how authors use symbolism in stories to convey additional meanings and have an effect on the story.
Internal and External Conflict
There are two main types of conflict: internal and external. Internal conflict involves a character struggling with their own emotions, choices, or past troubles. External conflict involves a character struggling against outside forces such as other characters, nature, or society. Conflict is crucial to any story as it creates drama, tension, and drives the plot forward.
Point of View - Third Person
The document discusses three types of third-person point of view in narratives: omniscient, limited, and objective. In omniscient point of view, the narrator knows the thoughts and feelings of all characters. Limited point of view means the narrator only knows the thoughts of one character. Objective point of view takes an impersonal, observational approach without getting inside any character's perspective.
Point of View
This document discusses three types of narration point of view: first person, second person, and third person. First person point of view uses pronouns like "I" and "we" and tells the story from within. Third person uses pronouns like "he" and "she" and tells the story as an observer from outside. Second person uses "you" and is uncommon in literature but common for instructions. Character dialogue does not reveal point of view, only the narration outside of quotes. Examples are provided to demonstrate identifying point of view.
Allegory, Fable, and Moral
The document discusses different types of narratives including allegory, fable, and moral. It provides examples of each like The Tortoise and the Hare as a fable that conveys a moral. The story of The Dog and The Bone is also described, where a dog drops his bone while trying to take another in his reflection, conveying the moral of being greedy. The document reviews how Animal Farm can be interpreted as both an allegory and a fable, and asks what moral the novel aims to teach.
Persuasion/Propaganda Quiz
This document provides a quiz on persuasion, propaganda, and logical fallacies. It includes 10 multiple choice questions testing the identification of objective vs subjective writing, common logical fallacies, and propaganda techniques. The key for each section lists the possible answer choices and identifies the correct response for each question.
Persuasive Essay Tips
This document provides tips for writing an effective essay, including focusing on strong introductions, avoiding clichés and unnecessary phrases, considering audience and structure, and using credible, emotional, and logical appeals. It recommends grabbing the reader's attention in the introduction without boring or tacky openings. Specific tips are given on eliminating subjective language, structuring paragraphs with a clear opinion and supporting facts/examples, and appealing to the intended audience's interests and values. Proper formatting of 1-2 double-spaced pages with appropriate citations is also addressed.
Propaganda
The document defines propaganda and lists some common tactics used, including fear appeal, rumor, innuendo, slogan, repetition, bandwagon, and doublespeak/euphemism. It provides examples and brief explanations of each tactic, such as using fear to frighten people into agreeing, subtly derogatory remarks, getting people to join in by following others, and using unclear or mild language to describe negative ideas. The overall message is that propaganda uses biased or misleading information to promote a particular viewpoint through these different persuasive techniques.
Logical Fallacies
The document discusses 5 common logical fallacies: name-calling, either/or, hasty generalization, cause and effect, and loaded language. It provides examples of each fallacy and how they appear in news stories and political rhetoric. The purpose is to help identify and avoid using flawed reasoning techniques in arguments and conclusions.
Subjective vs. Objective Writing
Subjective writing relies on personal feelings, opinions, and judgments that cannot be independently verified, while objective writing focuses on facts, figures, and observable details.
Subjective styles are used in personal essays and autobiographies, while journalists reporting news stories aim for objectivity by only including verifiable facts. However, some texts like biographies may contain both subjective and objective elements. Readers must be able to distinguish fact from opinion.
Metaphors - Direct, Implied, and Extended
The document discusses different types of metaphors:
1) Direct metaphors make a direct comparison using "is" or "are".
2) Implied metaphors hint at a comparison rather than stating it directly.
3) Extended metaphors continue a comparison over multiple sentences or paragraphs, like in the excerpt from "Me Talk Pretty One Day" where the author compares being taken from class to a criminal capture.
Direct and Indirect Characterization
Direct characterization directly states a character's personality traits, while indirect characterization reveals a character's personality through their speech, thoughts, actions, effects on others, and appearance. Indirect characterization uses techniques like showing a character's speech, thoughts, effects on others, actions, and controllable aspects of their appearance to indirectly portray their personality to the audience.
Literary terms - Foreshadowing, Protagonist, and Antagonist
The document defines literary terms and provides an example of foreshadowing from the novel To Kill a Mockingbird. It describes how Mr. Bob Ewell spits in Atticus Finch's face and threatens him, foreshadowing future conflicts between the characters. The document also defines the terms protagonist and antagonist, and provides a journal prompt asking the reader to argue for one side of a controversial issue.
Elements of Persuasion and MLA Formatting
This document discusses the elements of persuasion and provides guidelines for formatting papers according to MLA style. It defines persuasion as convincing others that one's belief is correct and getting them to act on that belief. The key elements of persuasion are credibility, logic, and emotion. Aristotle believed rhetoric is the ability to see the available means of persuasion in each situation. The document then provides examples of using credibility and emotion to persuade and explains that logic uses facts to persuade. It asks which method would be best to persuade others in different scenarios and provides tips for adhering to an audience's interests, values, and expectations. Lastly, it outlines the proper formatting for papers, including font, spacing, margins, and title formatting
Literary terms - Idiom and Theme
An idiom is an expression that means something other than the literal meaning of its words, with examples including "It's raining cats and dogs" and "Don't cry over spilled milk." A theme is the central idea or ideas explored in a literary work, such as the themes of racism and justice explored in To Kill a Mockingbird.
