A INTRODUCTORY SEMINAR Mr. Robert Geraci "Siberia in Russian History and Culture" Although often thought of as a useless and uninhabitable wasteland, Siberia has had an enormous impact on Russian civilization in both concrete and abstract ways. In this seminar, we will examine many of the roles this eastern region has played from the time of its conquest by Russia to the present. Topics will include: Siberia as a place of exile and imprisonment; Russian views of Siberian native peoples and cultures; Siberia as frontier of Russian settlement and land of opportunity; the region's natural resources, technological change, and Siberia's role in ecological-environmental movements; and Siberian motifs in film and literature. The seminar is intended to acquaint students with the study of history: the questions historians ask, how they think, and the types of sources they can use to find answers. The seminar requires no prior knowledge of Russian history or culture, and will serve as an introduction to the subject. Many of the readings will be primary sources: novels, short stories, government documents, memoirs, ethnographic literature, films, and so on. Students will be expected to read from 150 to 200 pages per week. Participation in class discussions will account for 40% of the course grade. Short, informal essays of a page or less may be assigned to stimulate discussion. In addition, each student will turn in two more formal and carefully written papers of 5-7 pages each on the readings. Each of these will account for 30% of the semester grade. There are no examinations.

Extractions: Home Encyclopedia Summa Fathers ... E > English Literature A B C D ... Z It is not unfitting to compare English Literature to a great tree whose far spreading and ever fruitful branches have their roots deep down in the soil of the past. Over such a tree, since the small beginnings of its growth, many vicissitudes of climate have passed; periods of storm, of calm, of sunshine, and of rain; of bitter winds and of genial life-bearing breezes; each change leaving its trace behind in the growth and development of the living plant. It is obvious, then,, that to present the complete history of such an organism in a few pages is impossible; all that can be attempted in this article is to describe the main lines of its life. Christianity , preached by St. Augustine in 597, bringing in its train education, science, and the arts, was the main factor in this refining change. Such British tribes as had escaped the English destroyer remained for a time almost entirely apart, though they and their literature were afterwards to have no small influence upon the literary development of England. Putting aside minor verse we come first upon the "Beowulf", a narrative poem which, together with a few other fragments, is all we have of the old English epic. It seems clear that the matter of it is much older than its present form. It is a storehouse of the thinking and feeling of the forefathers of the English people when they were still heathen and before they came to Britain, even though the poem may not have been actually put together in its present form until the ninth or tenth century. It gives a picture of very great interest of certain aspects of the actual life of the people. The English temper of mind at its best, enduring and heroic, pervades it throughout.

Extractions: T he Tempest at the University of Utah Contents: Plot Summary The Tempest Plot Summary After recounting this unfortunate history to his daughter, Prospero causes a deep sleep to come upon Miranda. Ariel, an airy servant spirit, enters at the service of Prospero. Prospero listens to a report of the night ,s events from his captive spirit. Ariel advises Prospero that he has ensured the safety of all aboard the ship, and the ship itself. Prospero assigns his dainty spirit the future events that are to occur under Ariel,s supervision. In return for Ariel's service, Prospero promises him his freedom. The love story begins when Ferdinand, the Prince of Naples, is led to Prospero and Miranda's presence. Ferdinand and Miranda fall in love upon first sight. Prospero voices his outward displeasure of their affections, but inwardly approves. Distressed at this seeming barrier to his new love, Ferdinand draws his sword upon Prospero. Prospero fends off Ferdinand's attack with the use of magical powers. Aware of Prospero's powers, Ferdinand submits to his will. The play continues with Ariel dispersing the shipwrecked crew around on the magical island. Antonio plots with the King's brother, Sebastian, the murder of the King. Alonso, the King of Naples is distressed at the apparent loss of his son. Alonso, being mentally and physically exhausted from the recent events sleeps, with some magical assistance from Ariel. All of the King's party fall under Ariel's sleeping spell except Antonio and Sebastian. Ariel releases the party from the spell just as Antonio and Sebastian are on the verge of killing the King.

Extractions: (Part 3) By Lloyd deMause THE MASOCHISTIC PSYCHOCLASS OF EARLY CHRISTIANITY A s mothers moved from infanticidal to abandoning mode childrearing (see Chapters 6 and 7), early Christians could internalize a mommy who doesnt actually kill her children but only abandons them, both through emotional abandonment and through sending them to wetnurses, fosterage, monasteries, service with others, etc. Even profound neglect is less devastating than watching your baby sister be strangled, so early Christians could for the first time in history hope to get their mothers/Gods love (redemption) if they show her their pain and get her pity. This display of pain to get the love of the mother is known as the masochistic personality, a lower level borderline condition, which for the first time in history enables people to imagine that if they debase and torture themselves, the mother/God will feel sorry for them and might provide salvation, eventual closeness, rather than just helplessness and unbearable loneliness. The gods of antiquity were distant, impersonal gods: "The gods might often mingle with men and women, but they did not seem to spend their time cultivating reciprocal love."

Extractions: At first glance, Shakespeare's history play, Henry V, may seem a strange subject for any exploration of spiritual themes and values, a play which unabashedly celebrates patriotic fervor, martial heroism, and military might.The career of Henry Monmouth, affectionately known as Prince Hal or Harry the Fifth, ignited Shakespeare's imagination in his Lancastrian tetralogy, a series of plays outlining the maturation of England's mythic king from prodigal prince to ideal ruler. Of all of Shakespeare's plays, Henry V is undoubtedly the only one which approaches epic proportions; yet, Henry's humanity is never compromised nor his victories easily won. In his youth as prince Hal, he is "'a truant... to chivalry'" (I Henry IV, V.i.194) until he recognizes the "'majesty and power of law and justice' (2 Henry IV, V. ii. 77) on his accession to the throne as Henry V"(Meron, 117). Upon the death of his father, Henry IV, he finally feels the burden of majesty and is "ready to submit 'his greatness... into the hands of justice'" (2 Henry IV, V.ii.110-11); however, "Shakespeare reserves the most flattering picture of the perfect knight for Henry V at Agincourt, one that emphasizes honour, courage, lack of material pursuits and generosity, which includes allowing those that fear the fighting to depart" (Meron, 117). Shakespeare's portrait, however, is not without historical precedent. The legend of Henry's "conversion was powerful and of long standing. It began with the chronicler Walsingham, who said that Henry on coming to the throne was turned suddenly into another man, and persisted in the Famous Victories of Henry V, where only a miracle can account for the abrupt transition from waster to serious monarch" (Tillyard, 305). Shakespeare echoes that tradition at the opening of Henry V when he has the Archbishop of Canterbury remind the Bishop of Ely that:

Extractions: In hieroglyphs, the name reads Kleopadra. It is a name which in Greek means Glory of Her Race (Weigall, 44). It is a name belonging to a woman who has transcended the boundaries of time so that we may know her story. What better way to describe Cleopatra, the last Queen of Egypt, Ruler of the Nile, sent from the Gods themselves to lead her people, than Glory of Her Race? Cleopatra, the last ruling descendant of the Ptolemaic Dynasty, has arguably unparalleled fame as a female historical figure. Yet we must ask ourselves: why? What is it about this individual that strikes us as so intriguing that we, like the Elizabethans before us, centuries ago, like the Romans two millennia past, should divert so much of our attention into construing the motivations behind the enigmatic figure that is Cleopatra? We must look not only to Cleopatra, but also to the historical events surrounding the last few years of her rule, in order to truly understand the historical significance bestowed upon her. It was a combination of the tumultuous political upheaval and civil unrest of Rome c.a. 40 B.C. that allowed Cleopatra to utilize her exotic mysticism and considerable political cunning to manipulate the situation in an attempt to fulfill her ultimately patriotic ideals. It is her vital and unique role in these hugely significant historical events that makes her equally indispensable in the annals of history.

Extractions: The history of English poetry stretches from the middle of the 7th century to the present day. Over this period, English poets have written some of the most enduring poems in European culture , and the language and its poetry have spread around the globe. Consequently, the term English poetry is unavoidably ambiguous. It can mean poetry written in England (and, by extension, the United Kingdom ), or poetry written in English The oldest poetry written in the area currently known as England was composed in Anglo-Saxon , a precursor to the English language that is not something a typical modern English-speaker could be expected to be able to read. In addition, there was a tradition of English poets writing also in Latin and classical Greek . Today's multicultural English society is likely to produce some interesting poetry written in a wide range of other languages, although such poetries are proving slow to emerge. With the growth of British trade and the British Empire , the English language has been widely used outside England. In the twenty-first century, only a small percentage of the world's native English speakers live in England, and there is also a vast population of non-native speakers of English who are capable of writing poetry in the language. A number of major national poetries, including the

Navigation Education The Mathhew Puzzle Matthew Society Information Contacts by Colin Mudie All that is known about the ship is her tonnage, the approximate dates and times of her voyage, and that she had a crew of eighteen in addition to Cabot himself. We also know that she set out for a voyage to Japan and back which might last for a year. Tonnage, being a function of keel length and beam, can be fairly confidently turned into hull dimensions for a conventional vessel of the period. This works out to a keel length of approximately fifty feet, an overall hull length of about 64 feet and a beam of the order of 20 feet. These dimensions can be cross checked against the capacity required to carry the crew, stores and provisions for a voyage to Japan and to return with the anticipated cargo of treasures. We can also be fairly confident that she was square rigged in that such a rig can be handled easily by a crew of eighteen, whereas the alternative lateen rig would need the watch below on deck for most manoeuvres and become more difficult to manage if any crew were to be lost on such a long expedition. Square rig would also, we think, be the first choice for a voyage of this kind where the ship needs to be quickly and confidently manoeuvred when standing in to strange coasts.
