The speaker goes to a field where grass has been mowed. He feels lonely until he sees a butterfly that leads him to a remaining tuft of flowers. The sight of the flowers awakens in him a sense of kinship with the mower, banishing his loneliness. He now feels as if working alongside the mower. The poem explores our human need for community and belonging.
This is an analysis about Robert Frost's poem, Acquainted with The Night. Diction and Imagery analysis to be exact. Hope this analysis help you to understand it better.
The poem snake is a beautiful, haunting description of an encounter between man and nature. Lawrence deals amazingly with the conflict of whether to choose between his education and kill the snake or his moral instinct telling him that the snake is a friend, not a foe. we have made this presentation to make others aware of this awesome poem, and we hope you learn a lot from this presentation. we have included, in the ppt, the analysis of the poem, a critical review, the battle between moral and educational reason, about the poet and his works etc too so that it will be easier for us to get a better grasp of Lawrence's feelings and thoughts.

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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

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.

1. “The Tuft of Flowers”
AMER MAHMOOD YOUSAF
ENGLISH DEPTT.
GOVT. ISLAMIA COLLEGE CIVIL LINES
LAHORE
2. O I went to turn the grass once after one
Who mowed it in the dew before the sun.
The dew was gone that made his blade so
keen
Before I came to view the leveled scene.
I looked for him behind an isle of trees; 5
I listened for his whetstone on the breeze.
3. O But he had gone his way, the grass all
mown,
And I must be, as he had been—alone,
“As all must be,” I said within my heart,
“Whether they work together or apart.” 10
But as I said it, swift there passed me by
On noiseless wing a bewildered butterfly,
4. O Seeking with memories grown dim o’er night
Some resting flower of yesterday’s delight.
And once I marked his flight go round and
round, 15
As where some flower lay withering on the
ground.
And then he flew as far as eye could see,
And then on tremulous wing came back to
me.
5. O I thought of questions that have no reply,
And would have turned to toss the grass
to dry; 20
But he turned first, and led my eye to look
At a tall tuft of flowers beside a brook,
A leaping tongue of bloom the scythe had
spared
Beside a reedy brook the scythe had
bared.
6. O The mower in the dew had loved them
thus, 25
By leaving them to flourish, not for us,
Nor yet to draw one though of ours to him,
But from sheer morning gladness at the brim.
The butterfly and I had lit upon,
Nevertheless, a message from the dawn, 30
7. O That made me hear the wakening birds
around,
And hear his long scythe whispering to the
ground,
And feel a spirit kindred to my own;
So that henceforth I worked no more alone;
But glad with him, I worked as with his aid, 35
And weary, sought at noon with him the
shade;
8. O And dreaming, as it were, held brotherly
speech
With one whose thought I had not hoped
to reach.
“Men work together,” I told him from the
heart,
“Whether they work together or apart.” 40
9. O The speaker goes to a field to turn the grass
that has been mowed there. He feels lonely.
Then, he sees a butterfly, which leads his
eyes to a tuft of flowers that the mower left
standing. The joy that must have led the
mower to admire and spare the flowers is
transferred, through the sight of the flowers, to
the speaker. This awakens in the speaker a
sense of kinship with the mower. It banishes
his loneliness. He feels now as if he were
working with the mower side by side.
10. form
O “A Tuft of Flowers” is written in heroic
couplets, with some variation from a strict
iambic foot. All rhymes are masculine; the
majority of lines are end- stopped. This, in
part, gives the poem its marching, oldfashioned sound. (A few archaic-sounding
words add to the effect: o’er
night, henceforth.) Theheart-apart rhyme of
lines 9-10 gets recast and repeated later in
the poem. Two additional endwords, alone and ground, are repeated.
11. When we think of a man with a scythe, we think
of the grim reaper. This
adds to the impression that the start of this
poem is centred around the idea of
endings, solitude and sadness.
O The word ''But'' in line seven indicates a
change of mood. The poet is alone.
O on a metaphorical level, Frost is following in
the footsteps of other long gone poets whose
work has enabled him to benefit from their
labours and move on
12. O There is a sense of deep sadness in these
lines, emphasised by the assonance in the long
vowel of the words ''mown'' and ''alone''.
O The dash before the word ''alone'' has the effect of
making the word stand alone, and also of making
us pause before reading it.
O Again, this emphasises the point Frost is making in
these lines – that man is ultimately alone in the
world.
O The use of the word ''must'' suggests that Frost
has not necessarily chosen to be this way, but that
this is a state the world has thrust upon him.
13. O Frost extends this idea to include all
mankind. We are all alone, he
says, whether we ''work together or
apart.'„
O There is a note of resignation in his
declaration that ''all must be'' alone.
O The tone of this section of the poem is
overwhelmingly pessimistic.
14. O (In ancient Greek literature, the butterfly
was a symbol of the psyche, or the soul.)
O He watches the insect fly around, looking
for the flowers that were there yesterday
but that are now ''withering on the
ground.'„
O The butterfly appears to fly away, but
comes back to Frost ''on tremulous
wing'', which suggests
nervousness, excitement or uncertainty.
(The word ''tremulous'' means
trembling, shaking or timid.)
15. O The mower, Frost says, did not do it to
draw any sort of attention to himself, but
rather because he was moved by ''sheer
morning gladness'„
O He hears the ''wakening birds'' and almost
believes he can hear the mower's ''long
scythe whispering to the ground.'' He no
longer feels alone.
16. O He sees the flowers as evidence that the
mower has ''a spirit kindred to my own''.
17. Theme
O ''The Tuft of Flowers'' explores our need to
belong and to have a sense of community.
The poet works alone but it is important for
him to feel a connection with the other man
who started the day's work. Until he makes
this connection, he feels a little lost and
unhappy and cannot settle down to the task
he set out to do. The work of a poet is largely
solitary, but depends to a certain extent on the
work of other poets who have gone before
and who have led by example.
