The document provides an analysis of W.B. Yeats's poem "A Dialogue of Self and Soul". It discusses how the poem depicts a discussion between the Self and Soul. The Soul argues that intellect and imagination should focus on philosophy to transcend life and death. However, the Self believes passion and living life fully can give it meaning, rather than trying to avoid the cycle of birth and death. The document also analyzes themes in the poem like suffering, wisdom, and the relationship between self and soul.

The concept of imagination in biographia literariaDayamani Surya
Samuel Taylor Coleridge in his Biographia Literature considered that the mind can be divided into two faculties called as imagination and fancy.
Imagination is further divided into two types namely Primary Imagination and Secondary Imagination.
The Rape of the Lock was written by Pope to chide gently the Fermor family when Lord Petre cut off a lock of Arabella Fermor’s hair on a certain fateful day and such dire consequences followed. Pope started something that culminated into a piece of literature that has remained to this day a leading example of the mock epic satire.

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.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Dialogue of Self and Soul
1. A Dialogue of Self and Soul
~W.B Yeats
Presented by: Saba Noor
2. Yeats and Philosophy
• The discussion around W.B. Yeats as a poet born between late
Romanticism and Modernism has positioned him as;
• “the last romantic” or “the first modernist”
• As a Romantic he believed in a “subjective wisdom”;
-that was manifested in the use of traditional forms
• He was also a Modernist in infusing them with refreshed originality
• Yeats’s position between two manners of perceiving poetry;
• The core of his fascination on amalgamating the new with the ancient, the
known with the unknown
3. A Dialogue of Self and Soul
Stanza analysis:
• In the first stanza the Soul calls the reader to the tower of learning where
“the star,” the most distant part of our universe, “marks the hidden pole.”
• Soul seems to be talking about the contemplation of eternity
• Poem itself seems to imply that the soul’s goal is so vague as to be
virtually unknowable.
• “Thought,” as represented by the tower, cannot distinguish “darkness
from the soul.”
• Yeats says the tower is “half dead at the top.”
• If we see the tower as an individual, as a source of knowledge, this would
seem to imply that there is no more original thought there.
• If, on the other hand, we see the tower as a phallic symbol,
it has become impotent.
4. • In the second stanza, Self says it holds an ancient Japanese blade wrapped
in a piece of embroidered silk
• Seem to be symbols of war and love
• Sword can stand for the blood that has been spilled, while the dress
seems to have been given to the samurai out of love
• The sword also seems to represent self-discovery;
“a looking glass,” where man discovers his penchant for violence
• Silken embroidery represents art, one thing many romanticists felt
transcended time
• Soul argues that these are foolish symbols, and that if imagination would
just “scorn the earth”
• Intellect would quit wandering from topic to topic, then together they
could deliver us from the “crime of death and birth,”
suggesting a Buddhist-like escape from the cycle of eternal rebirth.
5. • In the fourth stanza, Self sets purple flowers the color of the heart and the
sword, with its implied blood, against the darkness that the tower
represents
• Passion, in and of itself, Yeats seems to suggest can make life meaningful
• We shouldn’t try to avoid life and death; we should live it passionately
• Soul finally argues that when intellect and imagination are focused on
philosophy;
• that intellect no longer knows Is from Ought or Knower from Known and
that is like ascending to Heaven.
• It’s obvious that Yeats is a Romantic and believes in the power of
intuition, not rational arguments
6. • Part II of the poem is spoken entirely by the Self
• It is a celebration of life itself, though a rather strange celebration, no
doubt, by some people’s standards
• No matter how miserable our life has been, the narrator argues, if we
follow it to its source and forgive ourselves for our mistakes;
-we will transcend those mistakes and become “blest”
• Part of the power of the poem comes from our realization that, we, too,
have suffered most of these indignities
• Who hasn’t felt the awkwardness of childhood, or the fears of becoming a
man or woman, and fear of enemies who would have our job?
• How can we escape the hurtful image that malicious acquaintances
project onto us at different times of life?
7. The Magnanimity of Yeats
• In ‘A Dialogue of Self and Soul’ Yeats rehandles the old genre of the
psychomachia, associated with the fifth-century Christian poet Prudentius
• Contrary to the orthodox form of the genre, Soul is shown to lose in the
battle against its opponent;
• who is not on this occasion the Platonically devalued body, but the Self, a
source of new Nietzschean values
• Yeats aims to dramatize the conflict within himself, not to refute the
claims of soul
• As in the dialogue between Heart and Soul in ‘Vacillation’, the rightness of
what Soul is saying goes uncontested, but the poet wants the detour of
human erring
8. Themes
• Suffering
• Life, Consciousness and Existence
• Freedom and Confinement
• Wisdom and knowledge
• Self Vs soul
• Mind Vs Heart
