· Absurd DramaOC15 RESPONd to this quote #1
Absurd drama is defined by works of drama created during the modern era. It is known as absurd because of how boldly it strays away from traditional ideals. Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot is a play well-known for being apart of the "Theatre of the Absurd". Waiting for Godot is a great example of absurd drama because every element of the play is strange and abnormal. The homelessness and disillusionment is expressed in all aspects of the play; the setting, language, characters, etc. Dictionary.com defines absurd as unreasonable, illogical, and inappropriate. Modern literature expresses a theme of absurdness of culture. Normalcy is no longer a thing and the elements of modernism consists of something disturbing. In Harold Pinter's The Homecoming is absurd because it exposes dysfunction within the household. It is also absurd to think that the pure and innocent house wife could be a sexually pleasing mistress to many men; nevertheless, make her own money doing so.

Yeats paints a picture of the modern society to expose the absurdness of the fantasy of war.
· Absurd dramaCL13 Respond to this quote #2
Absurd drama was mostly written in the 1950's and 1960's. The term was first defined as the human situation as basically meaningless and absurd. Whereas traditional theatre attempts to create a photographic representation of life as we see it, the Theatre of the Absurd aims to create a ritual-like, mythological, archetypal, allegorical vision, closely related to the world of dreams. The focal point of these dreams is often man's fundamental bewilderment and confusion, stemming from the fact that he has no answers to the basic existential questions: why we are alive, why we have to die, why there is injustice and suffering. Waiting for Godot is a great example of this because it embodies so many elements that are included in the definition or characteristics of of an Absurd drama.

Rituals differed from plays in their use of suspense and audience identification with characters. Significant Greek dramatists included Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, Aristophanes, and Menander. Drama continued developing through Roman, Medieval, Renaissance, 18th century, 19th century, and modern eras with influences from various movements such as Romanticism, Realism, Symbolism
Drama originated in ancient Greece between 600-200 BC as a form of religious worship to Dionysus. It began as religious chants and songs performed by a chorus and gradually incorporated additional actors and dialogue. During the Elizabethan era in 16th-17th century England, playwrights like Shakespeare and Marlowe flourished. Shakespeare initially wrote in conventional styles but later adapted them to be more natural. Drama can be categorized as opera, pantomime, or creative drama and takes forms like comedy, tragedy, farce, and musical drama. It uses elements like theme, plot, effects, and music.
The document discusses the literary movement of naturalism and its characteristics. It began in the late 19th century in America and was influenced by French author Emile Zola. Naturalist writings typically focused on the lives of lower-class characters struggling in poverty and conflicts between man and nature/society. Common themes included humanity's powerlessness against impersonal forces and the expansion of commerce overpowering individuals.
Charles Dickens' 1850 novel David Copperfield is considered a classic Bildungsroman that follows the protagonist's journey from childhood to maturity. Through David's experiences and relationships with various characters, the novel explores themes of disciplining one's emotions and finding one's place in society. While some characters like Agnes Wickfield demonstrate maturity and wisdom, others like Uriah Heep and James Steerforth lack discipline. David develops a disciplined heart through his personal growth over the course of the story. The novel was praised by critics like Tolstoy and influenced many other authors.
1. Drama originated in ancient Greece and was performed as part of religious festivals honoring gods. The three main genres that developed were tragedy, comedy, and satyr plays.
2. Roman drama expanded on Greek traditions. Important early Roman works were written by Livius Andronicus in 240 BC. In later centuries, religious mystery and miracle plays evolved into more sophisticated drama in England.
3. The height of English Renaissance drama in the 16th-17th centuries included playwrights like Shakespeare, Marlowe, and Jonson. Their works drew from Greek/Roman myths and plays and enhanced the image of the ruling monarchy.

It discusses the key figures and works from this period, including William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Lord Byron, John Keats, and Percy Bysshe Shelley. The Romantic Age saw a shift from reason and the scientific mindset of the prior Classical Age to a focus on emotion, imagination, individualism, and nature. Common themes in Romantic poetry included nature, love, history, and the forms included lyric poetry, ballads, sonnets, and historical novels.
This document provides biographical information and summaries of works by several authors, including James Joyce, T.S. Eliot, George Orwell, Salman Rushdie, Langston Hughes, and Amy Tan. It discusses their styles, themes, and techniques. For example, it notes that James Joyce advocated for artistic objectivity and independence from pressures, while T.S. Eliot explored themes of alienation, faith, and the past versus present in modern society through an impersonal style. It also summarizes Rushdie's Midnight's Children and its magical realist approach to Indian history.
Definition Of Tragedy And Play By Aristotle And DrydenPritiba Gohil
This document summarizes Aristotle and John Dryden's definitions of tragedy and play. It provides Aristotle's definition of tragedy as the imitation of an action that is serious, complete, and uses language to arouse pity and fear, culminating in a catharsis. It then discusses Dryden's definition of play as a just and lively representation of human nature and the changes in people's fortunes that delights and instructs mankind. The document also provides biographical context on Aristotle and Dryden and compares French and English drama in relation to the unities of time, place and action.
The document discusses the rise of the novel as a genre in the 18th century. It provides definitions of the novel and traces its origins from prototypes in Elizabethan literature. The rise of the novel coincided with the rise of the middle class in Europe as printing technology advanced and literacy rates increased. Early novels focused on middle-class protagonists and included elements of realism to engage readers. Major novelists like Defoe, Fielding, and Richardson helped establish the novel as a new legitimate form through styles like the epistolary, realistic, and philosophical novels.
Drama originated in ancient Greece and was performed as part of religious festivals. It later spread through the Roman Empire. The three main types of medieval European drama were mystery, miracle, and morality plays performed by the Christian Church. During the Renaissance, plays rediscovered Greek and Roman drama and were no longer restricted to religious themes. Shakespeare and other playwrights flourished in 16th century England. Asian countries also have long histories of drama, such as Sanskrit plays in ancient India, wayang puppet theater in Indonesia, Noh drama in Japan, and masked dance dramas in Korea.
The ability to recreate computational results with minimal effort and actionable metrics provides a solid foundation for scientific research and software development. When people can replicate an analysis at the touch of a button using open-source software, open data, and methods to assess and compare proposals, it significantly eases verification of results, engagement with a diverse range of contributors, and progress. However, we have yet to fully achieve this; there are still many sociotechnical frictions.
Inspired by David Donoho's vision, this talk aims to revisit the three crucial pillars of frictionless reproducibility (data sharing, code sharing, and competitive challenges) with the perspective of deep software variability.
Our observation is that multiple layers — hardware, operating systems, third-party libraries, software versions, input data, compile-time options, and parameters — are subject to variability that exacerbates frictions but is also essential for achieving robust, generalizable results and fostering innovation. I will first review the literature, providing evidence of how the complex variability interactions across these layers affect qualitative and quantitative software properties, thereby complicating the reproduction and replication of scientific studies in various fields.
I will then present some software engineering and AI techniques that can support the strategic exploration of variability spaces. These include the use of abstractions and models (e.g., feature models), sampling strategies (e.g., uniform, random), cost-effective measurements (e.g., incremental build of software configurations), and dimensionality reduction methods (e.g., transfer learning, feature selection, software debloating).
I will finally argue that deep variability is both the problem and solution of frictionless reproducibility, calling the software science community to develop new methods and tools to manage variability and foster reproducibility in software systems.

Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths ForwardLeonel Morgado
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.
Authoring a personal GPT for your research and practice: How we created the Q...Leonel Morgado
Thematic analysis in qualitative research is a time-consuming and systematic task, typically done using teams. Team members must ground their activities on common understandings of the major concepts underlying the thematic analysis, and define criteria for its development. However, conceptual misunderstandings, equivocations, and lack of adherence to criteria are challenges to the quality and speed of this process. Given the distributed and uncertain nature of this process, we wondered if the tasks in thematic analysis could be supported by readily available artificial intelligence chatbots. Our early efforts point to potential benefits: not just saving time in the coding process but better adherence to criteria and grounding, by increasing triangulation between humans and artificial intelligence. This tutorial will provide a description and demonstration of the process we followed, as two academic researchers, to develop a custom ChatGPT to assist with qualitative coding in the thematic data analysis process of immersive learning accounts in a survey of the academic literature: QUAL-E Immersive Learning Thematic Analysis Helper. In the hands-on time, participants will try out QUAL-E and develop their ideas for their own qualitative coding ChatGPT. Participants that have the paid ChatGPT Plus subscription can create a draft of their assistants. The organizers will provide course materials and slide deck that participants will be able to utilize to continue development of their custom GPT. The paid subscription to ChatGPT Plus is not required to participate in this workshop, just for trying out personal GPTs during it.
Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvementIshaGoswami9
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.

THE MIDDLE CLASS DRAMA IN 18TH C.In spite of the direct tone of the middle-class drama of 18th c. no more implies the criteria of a
people’s theater than does the proletarian drama of 19th c.
The drama developed into the representative literary genre in which ideals of court society in the
survive of absolute monarchy found the most direct and imposing expression.

very dramatic critic had felt that the sudden turn of destiny makes the deeper impression,
the higher position from which the hero falls.
In the poetic theory, tragedy is simply defined as the genre whose heroes are princess,
generals, and suchlike nobilities.
In 18th centaury middle class drama, the turning point was a significant dramatic action
and showed them as the victims of tragic fates when middle class citizens were the
protagonists of serious actions.

The principles of a new drama: the 'serious genre', a realistic midpoint between comedy and tragedy that
stood in opposition to the stilted conventions of the classical French stage. Diderot introduced the concept of
the fourth wall, the imaginary "wall" at the front of the stage in a traditional three-walled box set in a
proscenium theatre, through which the audience sees the action in the world of the play.

“Tableaux vivants” means "living picture". The term, borrowed from the French language, describes a group
of suitably costumed actors or artist's models, carefully posed and often theatrically lit. Throughout the
duration of the display, the people shown do not speak or move.
