41. Prose 23 How fit even as her feathers be only for shooting, so be her quills fit onlyfor writing. (Roger Ascham s 15151568 Toxophilus was published in 1545. http://www.petercollingwood.co.uk/prose_23.htm

Prose 23 from Toxophilus Toxophilus: For there is no one thing, in all shooting, so much to be looked on as the feather. For first a question may be asked, whether any other thing beside a feather be fit for a shaft or no? If a feather only be fit, whether a goose feather only or no? If a goose be best, then whether of an old goose or a young goose; a gander or a goose; a fenny goose or uplandish goose. Again which is best feather in any goose, the right wing or the left wing, the pinion feather or any other feather; a white, black or gray feather?........ (and so on!) Philologus: What if I come into a shop and spy out a bow, which shall both then please me very well when I buy him, and be also very fit and meet for me when I shoot in him: so that he be both weak enough for easy shooting, and also quick and speedy enough for far shooting, then I would think I shall need no more business with him, but be content with him, and use him well enough, and so by that means, avoid both great trouble, and also some cost which you cunning archers very often put your selves unto, being very English men, never ceasing piddling about your bow and shafts when they be well, but either with shortening and piking your bows, or else with new feathering, piecing and heading your shafts, can never have done until they be stark naught. Toxophilus For the goose is man's comfort in war and peace, sleeping and waking. What praise so ever be given to shooting, the goose may challenge the best part in it. How well doth she make a man fare at his table? How easily doth she make a man lie in his bed? How fit even as her feathers be only for shooting, so be her quills fit only for writing

Just as Einstein observed that space was not an absolute but depended on the observer's movement in space, and that time was not an absolute, but depended on the observer's movement in time, so it is now realized that numbers are not absolute, but depend on the observer's movement in restaurants. The first nonabsolute number is the number of people for whom the table is reserved. This will vary during the course of the first three telephone calls to the restaurant, and then bear no apparent relation to the number of people who actually turn up, or to the number of people who subsequently join them after the show/match/party/gig, or to the number of people who leave when they see who else has turned up.

Humanising Language Teaching Year 2; Issue 2; March 2000 Double Translation by Malcolm Benson One of the great "Golden Oldie" language learning techniques was "double translation", which is generally associated with the name of Roger Ascham (1515-1568). It is one of the old grammar-translation exercises that pupils did in Tudor times, mostly between vernacular languages and Latin. Despite that, you might like to try it with your students. What to do: Select a piece of English that is not too technical and is at the students' own reading level. I find it best to take one passage and divide it up into sections of about 50 words, though it is best if each section is coherent within itself. Ask the students for a translation into their native language(s). They can use a dictionary or any other help they can get (e.g., work in pairs on it), but at the end they give in the translation and the original. After some time (a day, a week) give them back their L1 version, and ask them to put it back into English again. The students now look at their own version side by side with the original. They may find their own version better than the original, or about the same, or worse. any case they will get out the dictionary, and probably ask the teacher for explana- tions.

Re: Math Quotes Posted by kyle on 1/20/03 The mathematical sciences particularly exhibit order, symmetry, and limitation; and these are the greatest forms of the beautiful. Aristotle (384-322 BC) Metaphysica Today, it is not only that our kings do not know mathematics, but our philosophers do not know mathematics. Julius Robert Oppenheimer (1904-1967) Life would be stunted and narrow if we could feel no significance in the world around us beyond that which can be weighed and measured with the tools of the physicist or described by the metrical symbols of the mathematician. Sir Arthur Stanley Eddington As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain; and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality Albert Einstein I don't believe in mathematics. Albert Einstein Do not worry about your problems with mathematics, I assure you mine are far greater. Albert Einstein If it's green, it's biology, If it stinks, it's chemistry, If it has numbers it's math, If it doesn't work, it's technology Unknown I think of lotteries as a tax on the mathematically challenged.

Sixteenth Century Humanism in England In contrast to the purely religious scholasticism that preceded them, the humanists advocated a liberalizing of thought and attitude, as well as an emphasis on classical Greek and Latin scholarship. Most pertinent for our discussion was the humanists' urging that the Scriptures be read in the vernacular rather than solely in Latin, and their strong recommendation that women be given advanced education. Such humanists as Leonardo Bruni of Italy (c. 1370-1444) and Juan Luis Vives (1492-1540) of Spain were especially clear in their advocacy of women's learning. In England, among the most prominent proponents of humanism in the early 16th century was Sir Thomas More, the man for all seasons (1478-1535), closely allied with Desiderius Erasmus of Holland (1467-1536), and Sir Thomas Elyot (1490-1546). More is held responsible for a decided advance in the 16th century in the education of upper-class English women - in such subjects as classical literature, philosophy, mathematics, astronomy, physics, logic, and rhetoric. More himself educated a number of young women, including his three daughters, in his own home, and their classical education was a model for other noble families of the time. Adding to the effects of More's leadership was the fact that Catherine of Aragon (1485-1536), daughter of Isabella and Ferdinand of Spain and first wife of Henry VIII of England, was very much in favour of humanism and had close contact with outstanding humanists. She inspired Erasmus to write his
