Roland is depicted as a brave and loyal knight devoted to his emperor Charles. However, he is also portrayed as arrogant, dogmatic, and disrespectful towards his stepfather Ganelon. Roland refuses help from Charles and advice from Oliver due to overconfidence in his own abilities. This hubris leads to the defeat of the Frankish army at the hands of the Saracens. Only as he sees his comrades slaughtered does Roland realize his mistake. In the end, though, Roland is vindicated for his bravery and heroic sacrifice in battle.

Aeneas' journey as a refugee began after the destruction of Troy, when he left with his father, son, and troops to search for a new homeland. After years of wandering, they eventually settled in Italy, where Aeneas became the ancestor of the Romans. Centuries later, the destruction of Smyrna in 1922 caused over 1 million Greek refugees to flee Asia Minor. They arrived in Greece in poor condition, with many subsequently dying. Though initially housed in poor conditions, the refugees eventually integrated and contributed greatly to Greece's economy, culture, and society. Today, Greece continues to receive large numbers of migrants and refugees, particularly children, fleeing conflicts around the world.

Ancient Greek and Roman comedy developed over centuries, beginning in 5th century BC Athens. The earliest comedies by playwrights like Aristophanes used satire to critique politics and society while entertaining audiences. This tradition evolved into New Comedy plays in the Hellenistic era by Menander that focused more on everyday domestic life. Roman writers like Plautus and Terence adapted Greek New Comedy plays to Latin, influencing later European dramatists like Moliere. Ancient comedy aimed to both amuse and teach audiences while addressing social issues through humor and satire.
Greek and Latin symbols have been used in mathematics since ancient times to concisely represent mathematical concepts and operations. Mathematical symbolism plays an important role in both teaching and learning mathematics, as it provides a powerful communication tool for teachers and students. A strong understanding of mathematical symbols helps students translate between the language they speak and the language of mathematics, which is crucial for successful learning.

2. Τι είναι;
Το εμπόριο οργάνων είναι η
καταναγκαστική απόσπαση
ανθρώπινων τμημάτων με σκοπό
την εκμετάλευση/εμπορία τους. Η
πρακτική είναι παράνομη στις
περισσότερες χώρες, ωστόσο η
πώληση του ενός νεφρού στο Ιράν,
με σκοπό το κέρδος, επιτρέπεται,
ενώ στην Κίνα συνηθίζεται να
λαμβάνονται όργανα από νεκρούς ή
εκτελεσμένους φυλακισμένους.
3. Οι νεφροί είναι το πιο κοινό αντικείμενο του εμπορίου οργάνων, καθώς ο
ανθρώπινος οργανισμός διαθέτει δυο από αυτούς και έτσι κάποιος που
βρίσκεται σε ανάγκη μπορεί να πωλήσει τον έναν. Τα χρήματα που
λαμβάνουν οι δότες νεφρού αυτής της κατηγορίας κυμαίνονται από 800-
10.000 δολάρια, ενώ ο λήπτης του οργάνου καταβάλει αρκετά
περισσότερα χρήματα.Το εμπόριο των οργάνων ανθεί ειδικά στις
αναπτυσσόμενες χώρες, οπως την Ινδία το Πακιστάν,την Βραζιλία και τις
χώρες της Ανατολικής Ευρώπης, που θεωρούνται "εξαγωγείς" οργάνων,
ενώ κυριότεροι λήπτες ("εισαγωγείς") είναι χώρες όπως οι ΗΠΑ, ο
Καναδάς, η Αυστραλία κ.α.
5. H ιστορία του Γιασέρ
Ο 29χρονος Γιασέρ (δεν είναι το πραγματικό του όνομα) έχει ένα νεφρό.
Η απόφασή του να πουλήσει τον άλλον ήταν, όπως λέει, η χειρότερη που
πήρε ποτέ. Αφηγείται πώς για να γλυτώσει τον πόλεμο που μαινόταν στη
γενέτειρα του, Χομς, στη δυτική Συρία, την εγκατέλειψε, αναζητώντας
καταφύγιο στο Κάιρο.
«Δεν θα συγχωρήσω τον εαυτό μου γι αυτό που έκανα», λέει ο Γιασέρ,
προσθέτοντας πως, πέραν του ψυχικού τραύματος, ήδη απειλείται η
λειτουργία του εναπομείναντα νεφρού του, έχει μόνιμους πόνους και οι
γιατροί του επισημαίνουν πως πρέπει να είναι ιδιαίτερα προσεκτικός. Πλέον ζει
στην Κωνσταντινούπολη, μοιράζεται ένα διαμέρισμα με αρκετούς άλλους
πρόσφυγες και εργάζεται σε κατάστημα αυτοκινήτων.
6. Μετανάστες και εμπόριο
Ένα ακόμασοκαριστηκό παράδειγμα είναι η εκμετάλλευση των
μεταναστών που κατευθύνεται προς την Ευρώπη. Οι οποίοι όταν
δεν έχουν τη δυνατότητα να πληρώσουν τα χρήματα για το ταξίδι,
αναγκάζονται να γίνουν…. εμπορεύματα στα χέρια των Αιγυπτίων
έναντι ευτελούς ποσού (13.000 ευρώ) που πουλούν τα όργανά τους.
