Written in Homeric fashion, The Lusiads (Os Lusiadas) focuses mainly on a fantastical interpretation of the Portuguese voyages of discovery during the 15th and 16th centuries. It is often regarded as Portugal’s national epic, much in the way as Virgil’s Aenied was for the Ancient Romans, or Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey for the Ancient Greeks. The influence of his masterpiece The Lusiads is so profound that Portuguese is called the “language of Camões.” It was first printed in 1572, three years after the author returned from the Indies.

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.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

4. CLASS
DISCRIMINATION• Separation of Classes
– “A Rose for Emily”
• The separation of the classes can be seen in “A Rose
for Emily,” when it is discussed that Miss Emily would
not stoop to marry a ‘day laborer.’
– Language
• The southern way of life is also seen in his works
through his characters speaking proper or improper
English. The poor southerners speak improper English
and the rich southerners speak proper English, as if to
separate themselves into their respective classes.
5. LANDSCAPE
• Appalachian Mountains
–Much of the south are the foothills for
the Appalachian Mountains.
• The gently rolling hills provide a beautiful
landscape for the scenes depicted by Faulkner.
–However, the hills often provided a
higher point of view for the characters.
• “Barn Burning”
– At the end of the story, the climbing of the hill for the boy
Snopes shows the internal struggle that he felt regarding
the betrayal of his family and his father.
6. RACISM
• Character Underdevelopment
– . In “A Rose for Miss Emily,” the manservant
character is not developed as a character.
Even though the manservant plays a vital role
in the story, it is as if the manservant is
deemed so insignificant that his character is
not worth developing or describing in detail.
• Derogatory, Offensive Terms
– The South is known for its deliberate and non-
deliberate racism, which influenced Faulkner's
perspective.
7. DEPICTION OF
CHARACTERS
• The way that Faulkner depicted his
characters also influences how readers
view the south and the southern peoples.
– Terms such as, “gaunt” and “puny” were used
to describe characters.
– “Faulkner’s novels inaccurately describe the
physical attributes of Southerners and this
has created false and misleading historical
images.” (Ferleger, 362).
8. TRAGEDY
• Faulkner's works are influenced by the
south’s tragic past and his works relay that
tragedy.
– “Barn Burning”
• Later in the story the father is shot after the son reveals the
fathers actions. The son will live a life burdened with the
thought that his own actions led to the death of his father.
– “A Rose for Emily”
• The lover is poisoned by Miss Emily so that he could never
leave her. It is tragic in the sense that even though her lover will
be with her for the rest of her days, he will never show her the
love and affection that she longs for because he is dead.
9. SUMMARY
• The South influenced Faulkner, but it can also be said that the
perception of the South is also influenced by Faulkner. His works are
filled with southern themes.
– I feel that one of the strongest examples of this influence is the
racism that is depicted throughout his works.
– I also see the way the different social classes interact and treat one
another. I feel that the southern influence with regard to the
separation of the classes is strongly depicted in the type of
language spoken by the characters of the different social classes.
– the southern landscape is used by Faulkner not only as a backdrop
for his works, but also to imply the triumphs and setbacks
experienced by his characters.
– The South’s tragic past is also depicted in Faulkner's works and
tragedy is often prevalent in his works.
• Overall, I believe that the south had a strong influence on shaping the
author William Faulkner and his works.
