Україна чітко визначилась та зорієнтувалась стосовно входження до освітнього простору Європи, наполегливо працює над практичним приєднанням до Болонського процесу. Відповідно до вимог нової програми впровадження новітніх ідей щодо мети Болонського процесу, випускники вищих навчальних закладів повинні зокрема на високому рівні володіти мовними знаннями, навичками, уміннями. За цих умов вдосконалення процесу навчання іноземним мовам потребує нових навчально-методичних посібників, різноманітних словників, тестів, інших засобів навчання та контролю. У циклі гуманітарних дисциплін професійної підготовки баклаврів та спеціалістів усіх спеціальностей особливе місце посідає така дисципліна як “Англійська мова”. Навчально методичний посібник “Eternity in Fragility” містить матеріал, що є частиною курсу “Іноземна мова” та має професійно-орієнтований характер. Посібник містить 22 основних і 10 додаткових адаптованих і оригінальних текстів, пов’язаних з життям, народними традиціями та ремеслами. Основні тексти супроводжуються лексико-граматичними вправами, що мають на меті закріпити та актівізувати навчальний матеріал, розвивати навички усного мовлення. Засвоєння відповідних тем дає можливість, з одного боку, глибше вивчити англійську мову, з іншого – розширює кругозір студентів, сприяє їх професійному, патріотичному, культурно- естетичному вихованню. Перед початком роботи над розділом студент повинен уважно прочитати всі нові слова, словосполучення та терміни, звертаючи особливу увагу на вимову, потім прочитати і перекласти тематичний текст (передбачається, що студенти володіють достатнім лексичним запасом, який у поєднанні з поданим до тексту словами дозволить їм зрозуміти зміст тексту; в окремих випадках студенти можуть користуватися англо-українськими словникоми). Після цього потрубно перейти до виконання вправ. Матеріал і система вправ забезпечує оволодіння навичками читання та говоріння (в основному монологічного мовлення), письма та аудіювання. Вправи зібрані наступним чином : 1) вправи до тексту; 2) вправи для закріплення активного словника; 3) вправи для розвитку навичок мовлення Питання про послідовність виконання вправ може бути вирішене викладачем і студентами Цей методичний посібник може бути використаний як для роботи у навчальних закладах, так і для самостійного вивчення англійської мови. 4 THE HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT OF COSTUMES From the earliest times clothing has always been the object of artistic creativity, and in fact one of the most attractive items of decorative applied art. It reflects the historical, economic, social, ethical and of course the esthetic moments of human life. One of the things having greatest influence on the character of the costume is of course technology: production techniques, especially in the textile and chemical areas, and also modes of transport. It is quite understandable that the textile product plays a key role in the process of costume formation. The level of textile technology and its individual features precludes the character of materials, their diversity, their circulation, length of use and so on. Technology’s swift progress hastens the replacement of one material by another and gives birth to ever new methods of construction of various elements of the costume. The influence of the technology of textile production is reflected in the cut and outward appearance of the clothing. Lifestyle also has a major influence on dress. The appearance of garments such as long pants is obviously allied to a nomadic way of life, which demands comfortable attire suited to a horseback existence. The region of initial spread of pants was in those areas which practised a nomadic way of life from ages past. These were the dry steppes and semideserts of Central Asia and the Near East : Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Iran, the Arabian Peninsula. Among many of the nomads both men and women wore pants. Social morals and ethical norms of behaviour also determine the development of the costume. Ideas about decency and modesty play a very important role in the formation of costume at all times and among all peoples. Acceptable social behaviour, like the moral principles which form its basis, not only appear, change and disappear in the process of general historical development, but are also segregated in social environments. Thus something which is quite unacceptable in one social circle, may not ever raise an eyebrow in another milieu. For example, in Ancient Rus’ it was always considered indecent for married women to appear in public with an uncovered head. Thus the wife of both the peasant and the boyar had to conceal her hair, while girls were allowed to go about without any headgear. Later, in 19th century, this custom survived only among the rural populace, while among the nobility and ever the wealthy townswomen it had long been forgotten. Esthetic tastes and canons of beauty directly influence the character of the costume. Not only the costume decor, but also the cut of the clothing and the external features of the costume are very closely tied to the prevailing esthetic tastes. Like the architecture of buildings, costumes also reflect the style of the period. Fashion is more variable, unstable, and short-lived, but at the same time it is a no less important factor influencing costumes. By fashion we mean the temporary spread of certain tastes, which first appear in a certain social circle, being shaped under the influence of conditions and tastes characteristic of the environment. However, fashion does not change the essence of the costume. It merely brings about partial change, which in the main concern details, only diversifying the external forms 5 of the costume. It is only during the transitional periods of change in style that fashion gradually unites the new features of a costume in a certain direction. The formation of certain

  • The Pileus Cap Quick and Dirty Instructions for Aethelmearc 12Th Night Saturnalia Meisterin Felicitas Fluβmüllnerin
    The Pileus Cap Quick and Dirty Instructions for AEthelmearc 12th Night Saturnalia Meisterin Felicitas Fluβmüllnerin What is a pileus? The pileus (or pilos) was a Greek-style traveling hat given to Roman slaves upon receiving their freedom. It is associated with Castor and Pollux, representing the egg that they hatched from, just as the slave is becoming a new man in his freedom. During the Festival of Saturnalia, everyone was allowed to wear the pileus, including slaves, and there was a topsy-turvy role reversal for the duration of the festival. Odysseus wearing the pilos.

Pair of Roman statuettes (3rd century AD) depicting the Dioscuri (Castor and Pollux) as horsemen, with their characteristic skullcaps (Metropolitan Museum of Art) What is it made of? Traditionally the pileus would be made of white wool to represent an egg shell, however, Saturnalia was a festival of color and celebration so feel free to use color and decorations, especially blue and gold (Saturnalia), red and white (AEthelmearc), and decorations of fertility and life: sun, moon, stars, herd animals, pinecones, nuts, and acorns. How to create a pileus: *I recommend felted wool or felt as the material. If made with a softer fabric, it will require a stiffener to stand tall. 1. Measure your head circumference loosely. 2.

  • Crosby Garrett Helmet
    A Roman Cavalry Helmet and the Phrygian Cap The Crosby Garrett helmet is well preserved example of a two-piece Roman cavalry helmet in the style of a Phrygia Cap, discovered close to Carlisle in 2010 by metal detectorists. Grampus Heritage who lead the EVEHD project have been involved with local Cumbrian volunteers in surveying the site of the discovery to see if there are any associated Roman discoveries yet to be made. With sponsorship from the Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery and the Portable Antiquities Scheme, Grampus and a local team identified earthworks which seemed to be part of a substantial enclosure surrounded by ditches, within which buildings had once stood. The enclosure, which measures as much as 500 metres (1,600 ft) long on its southern side, combines both native British and Roman methods of fortification. A sunken area within the enclosure may possibly have served as a paddock for horses, while the evidence for the buildings is concentrated in the enclosure's northern portion. The remnants of Romano-British field systems in the surrounding area show that the area was under cultivation and animal remains found on the site indicate that the inhabitants also raised livestock, including sheep, goats and pigs. The presence of Roman pottery suggests that the inhabitants had adopted some elements of the Roman lifestyle, but their community may well have been there long before the Romans arrived. Archaeological evidence from the enclosure indicates that the site may have been first settled as far back as the Bronze Age, at least 1,000 years before the helmet was deposited.

While art, creativity, and play are typically part of the repertoire of protesters in social movements, Euromaidan presents an unusual dynamic in that the participants using art and culture were not only individual protesters, but also institutions, such as museums. They responded by collecting artifacts, creating exhibits during and after the protests, organizing programs for creative engagement and response, and even offering hot tea and power outlets to protesters. Ongoing museum efforts include a discussion of how the protests will be remembered – how can a permanent record be presented in a way that is engaging and responsive: how can such a record be designed to serve community needs, strengthen community ties, energize citizens, make the difficult topics more digestible, and ultimately, become a center for empowerment and societal development? Regardless of how the official Museum of Maidan manifests, Ukraine’s museums are becoming examples of what it means to be responsive in crisis, to engage visitors creatively, and to include the community in developing a collective memory narrative.

The king gave way to the nation at the center of political life as the location of sovereignty transferred to the people. While the French Revolution changed the structure of France’s government, it also changed the allegorical representations of the nation. At the Revolution’s onset, the monarchy embodied both the state and nation as equated ideas.

Through the analysis of literary texts and visual art, a better understanding of the social perception of women in this time period can be achieved. Sources like novels, narratives, newspaper accounts, prints, etchings, and sculptures are used to show a distinct dichotomy in the portrayals of French women. In the artistic work from Britain, Ireland, Germany, and France, women who were active participants in the revolutionary proceedings were disparaged for being violent and ruthless, while women who were limited to the private sphere where glorified as mothers and moral anchors. Additionally, this essay argues that the inclusion of creative texts, such as these, is important for developing a more complete view of social ideas in historical periods. Yahr 4 Introduction: Representation and History When discussing the French Revolution of 1789, it is safe to say that with the advent of the revolution the entirety of French society was forced into a period of drastic social change.
