Critical Reading Coursebook i CRITICAL READING COURSE BOOK Introduction he preparation of these critical reading modules uses a learning approach that also T provides a focal point for the development of thinking skills. The approach that will be used is CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning). This approach is not only emphasizes language skills (language) but how learning content can provide a stimulus to think and understand what is the purpose of learning. CLIL is a teaching approach where students are taught in a foreign language with a dual focus which is the material being taught and language skills. In other words, the teacher can focus the discussion on specific themes and issues while still improving students' language skills. Themes and issues designed in learning will provide materials that can be used by students to develop a critical reading process. With a variety of themes from relevant and interesting literary works, students are required to not only seek information but analyze, evaluate and criticize the theme. In this aspect, CLIL will be relevant as an approach to develop practical, effective and valid Critical Reading modules for English Literature Department. We realize that this module is far from perfect. Therefore, suggestions from readers are valuable. We thank to the colleagues who helped in this module arrangement. Our thanks also to the ministry of research and higher education for funding this developmental research.

    Worshipful Master Gary Mosmeyer - Editor John "Corky" Daut The November 2012 Issue . By The Lighthouse Beam Right Angles, Horizontals and Perpendiculars From Hiram's Lighthouse Newsletter It appears to me that there has been some confu- sion among Masons about the Lights in a Lodge, as relates to the Three Lesser Lights, The Three Great Lights, and The Three Lights, (of the lodge,) and also about the one light above the altar that is turned on when the Three Great Lights are displayed upon the Altar. I will attempt to shed some light on the questions about these lights as relates to a Lodge Room as well as to some of the other “Threes” we find in Freema- sonry. In Freemasonry, we are encouraged to tell our Brothers what we want, and that is Knowledge, in Freemasonry Light means Knowledge. So when we talk about the three Triads of lights that are in a Lodge the symbolism behind the lights is knowledge. The Three Lesser Lights and the Three Lights have often been confused, thinking that the Third Section of the Lecture of the First Degree stating that a Lodge has Three Lights which are situated in the East West and South refer to the Three Lesser Lights, which they do not. In the Webb-Preston work, which much of the ritual of the Grand Lodges of the United States is based it says; the Lights of the Lodge are three, situated in the East, West, and South. There is none in the North be- cause King Solomon’s Temple was situated so far north of the ecliptic that neither the Sun nor Moon at Me- ridian height could dart their rays into the north part of the building.

  • Eye of Provide Eye of Providence Eye of Providence
    Eye of Providence The Trinity represented in a Christian version of the Eye of Providence . The Eye of Providence (or the all-seeing eye of God) is a symbol showing an eye often surrounded by rays of light or a glory and usually enclosed by a triangle . It is sometimes interpreted as representing the eye of God watching over humankind (or divine providence ). In the modern era, the most notable depiction o f the eye is the reverse of the Great Seal of the United States , which appears on the United States one-dollar bill . Contents 1 Religious use 2 United States 3 Freemasonry 4 Other uses : 4.1 Coats of arms and seals 4.2 Currency 4.3 Other contexts Religious use Jacopo Pontormo painting year 1525, using the Eye of Providence in a triangle as a symbol of the Christian Trinity . Imagery of an all-seeing eye can be traced back to Egyptian mythology and the Eye of Horus . Buddhist texts like the Mahaparinibbana Sutta also refer to Buddha as the "Eye of the World" (although no imagery is used). It is frequently used to depict the image of God in Caodaism (the doctrines of an Indochinese religion, especially an amalgamation of features from Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, and Christianity .) In Medieval and Renaissance European iconography, the Eye (often with the addition of an enclosing triangle) was an explicit image of the C hristian Trinity . Seventeenth-century depictions of the Eye of Providence sometimes show it surrounded by clouds or sunbursts . In United States 1782, the Eye of Providence was adopted as part of the symbolism on the reverse side of the Great Seal of the United States .

  • Freemasonry Per Se
    World Conspiracy 81 SYMBOLS Chapter 12 1. Why do freemasons use the satanic pentagram? From the Greek, "pente", meaning five and "gramma", a letter; the pentagram is a five pointed figure formed by producing the sides of a pentagon both ways to their point of intersection, so as to form a five-pointed star. It has no specifically satanic origin or meaning and no connection to Freemasonry per se . Freemasonry has traditionally been associated with Pythagoras, and among Pythagoreans, the pentagram was a symbol of health and knowledge; the pentagram is consequently associated with initiation, as it is in masonic iconography. The pentagram (also called pentacle, pentalpha, pentacle, pentagle, or pentangle) is thought by some occultists to trace its esoteric significance to an astronomical observance of the pattern of Venus ' conjunctions with the Sun and has had many meanings in many cultures through the ages. It is only from the fact that it forms the outlines of the five-pointed star to represent the "Five Points of Fellowship", and that it was associated with Pythagoras, that it has any masonic significance. Although the pentagram can be seen as a representation of the golden ratio , whether this was part of Freemasonry’s alleged "secret teachings" or is simply a modern interpolation is a topic of some controversy. The pentagram has no relationship to the Blazing Star, which has no specified number of points. The use of a pentagram or five-pointed star in some Grand Lodge seals and banners as well as on the collar of office worn by the Masters of lodges and Grand Masters of Grand Lodges is of interest to students of masonic history and art.

  • Looking Into the Eye of Providence
    Looking into the Eye of Providence Among those not initiated to the craft there are many well-known “facts” about the genesis of the United States and Freemasonry’s part in it. Tall tales, such as the great seal being a masonic symbol; the streets of Washington DC containing secret masonic symbols, or a masonic takeover of the worlds governments. For many, these are filed among such historical myths as George Washington chopping down the cherry tree and Ben Franklin suggesting the turkey as our national bird. Depending on whom you hear it from; Freemasons are planning the takeover themselves, or are working in concert with European bankers, or working in concert with the Illuminati. The notion of a worldwide Masonic conspiracy would be laughable, if it were not being repeated with such earnest gullibility by conspiracists from John Robson in, the 1790s all the way up through Pat Robertson in the present; this of course has been fodder for popular fiction for decades. However, for now, we will focus the eye in the pyramid, as seen on the back of the great seal of the United States; and by extension the Eye of Providence itself. The eye is one of many similar symbols across many cultures and histories around the world. Wherever humanity has seen fit to pay tribute to a deity, there has often been a similar symbol to represent the watchful eye of such a higher power, regardless of name. Perhaps the most well-known of these is the Egyptian Eye of Horus. According to legend, when Set and Horus were fighting for the throne after Osiris's death, Set gouged out Horus's left eye.

  • Lithuanian Folk Art SYLLABUS
    VYTAUTAS MAGNUS UNIVERSITY FACULTY OF HUMANITIES DEPARTMENT OF CULTURAL STUDIES AND ETHNOLOGY Lithuanian Folk Art SYLLABUS Prepared by Dr. Asta Venskienė Kaunas, 2013 Translated and edited by UAB “Lingvobalt” Publication of the syllabus is supported by the European Social Fund (ESF) and the Government of the Republic of Lithuania. Project title: “Renewal and Inter- nationalization of Bachelor Degree Programmes in History, Ethnology, Philoso- phy and Political Science” (project No.: VP1-2.2-ŠMM-07-K-02-048) © Asta Venskienė, 2013 © Vytautas Magnus University, 2013 Introduction The human need for artistic expression is deemed to be natural; however, in different societies it is manifested in different forms. The nature of artistic expression is determined by many things, in- cluding religion, vision of the world, social relationships of human beings, economic activities, etc. In pre-industrialised society, artis- tic expression was an integral part of people’s lifestyle. Amateur art in Lithuania is usually referred to as folk art or art of common people. The term ‘folk art’ was introduced in 1910 by J. Basanavičius. However, this term does not fully correspond to the equivalent terms used in other languages, e. g. Volkskunst or Bauernkunst in German, l’art populaire in French, sztuka ludowa in Polish. These terms describe the art originating among the common people, rather than the art of the entire nation. Before World War II the term ‘folk art’ was commonly-used, whereas in Soviet times the term ‘art of common people’ was more prevalent. Currently, the two terms are used interchangeably to refer to amateur art. In order to clarify, analyse and distinguish between different ideological values, researchers tend to classify Lithuanian folk art as follows: 1.

Masonry of the Templars (18th century) The Brussels Park or the Perfect Plan? (english version to be continued – 2021.02.23) F ull F rench version Brief presentation In his Bruxelles, Mille ans de mystères, Paul de Saint-Hilaire seems to be the first contemporary author to have considered the layout of the Royal Park of Brussels from a Masonic point of view1. He saw in it a desire to inscribe the Lodge's main tools in the plan of the Park itself. The following tools would thus be discovered: the compass, the square, the chisel, the mallet, the hammer, the perpendicular (or plumb line), the level, the ruler or lever, and the trowel (illustration above). Thirty years later, in his work Bruxelles maçonnique: faux mystères et vrais symboles2, the masonologist Jean van Win categorically rejected this thesis as phantasmagorical.
