Latin roots, prefixes, and suffixes provide the key to unlocking the meanings ofthese'words. In addition,'the* inflected nature of the Latin language affordspupils the opportunity to acquire a linguistic perspective that ishelpful in learning English. eThis guide also is designedto familiarize pupils with aspects of classical culture and its impact;---tointroduce orally somebasic Latin; in and.to stimulate interest inthe study of languages and the Humanities general.

  • Rules and Regulations
    Rules and Regulations The ancient Olympics had the potential to be very dangerous, even deadly, and a strict set of rules were imposed to regulate the behavior of athletes. Rules also applied more broadly to the spectators and even the city-states themselves. Who Enforced the Rules? Judges, called the Hellanodikai, were selected from the citizens of Elis and given ten months’ training by Elian officials on how to oversee the games. Once trained, the Hellanodikai were responsible for sorting competitors into age categories, ensuring the Sacred Truce was upheld (see Section 6: Politics), supervising the training of athletes prior to the games, and enforcing the code of conduct for both spectators and athletes. The Hellanodikai had additional help with enforcement and Terracotta Skyphos (Deep Drinking Cup), Greek, Attic, ca. 500 BCE, Terracotta, 06.1021.49, New York City, Metropolitan Museum of Art punishment: mastigophoroi (whip- bearers), rabdouchoi (rod-bearers), and alytarches/alytai, responsible for crowd control. Rules for Athletes Athletes needed the permission of the Hellanodikai to participate in the Olympics. Only male citizens were eligible. If accepted, they spent ten months in training before the start of the games. Even then, their participation wasn’t guaranteed. The Red-Figure Cup Fragment with Athletes, Greek, Attic, ca. 480 BCE, Hellanodikai oversaw the ten-month training period Ceramic, 2006.042.007, Atlanta, Michael C. Carlos Museum and reserved the right to remove substandard athletes from the competition. Athletes might also be removed during this period if the city-state they represented violated the Sacred Truce. Once the games began, athletes were required to perform in the nude, with the exception of chariot drivers and jockeys.

Şule ATILGAN Yazar: Aylin GÜNGÖR ÖZ Çocuklardan yetişkinlere büyük bir kesime hitap eden çizgi romanlar, hayali bir dünyanın içinde sonsuz güçlere sahip erkek egemen ağırlıklı süper kahramanlarla yaratılmaktadır. Fakat çizgi romanlarda yaratılan kadın karakterlerin azlığı ya da nesneleştirme gibi unsurlara maruz kalarak meydana getirilmesi bu kadın karakterlerin bir popüler kültür ürününe dönüşmesini sağlamaktadır. Dünyadaki örnekler araştırıldığında özellikle çizgi romanlarda süper kahraman olarak estetik anlamda seksi ve güzel, genç kız ve kadın karakterler bulunurken, Türkiye’deki çizgi romanlarda savaşçı ve güçlü kadın imgesinin ele alındığı karakterlerden yaratılan bir çizgi roman uygulaması yer almamaktadır. Bu yüzden tezin kapsamı Türk kültüründe yer alan kadın tiplerinden yola çıkılarak “Amazon Kadınları” ile sınırlandırılmıştır. Ayrıca sanatta yeterlik tezi kapsamında oluşturulan bu uygulama yapılırken gerek çizilen illüstrasyonlarda gerekse çizgi romanın senaryosunda geleneksel bir anlayış yerine modern bir yaklaşımın ele alınmasından dolayı günümüz yeni kadın hareketlerinde yaşanan “Dördüncü Dalga Feminizmi” bağlamında tez araştırması sosyolojik bir incelemeyi de gerekli kılmıştır.

This descriptive-analytical study aims to examine some symbols and signs of Ancient Greek-Roman-Persian mythology in sport games and tools. This study attempts to identify shared themes, characteristics and the relationships between different myths to trace the development of cultures. This research proposes common origins for the myths from Ancient Persian and European cultures, and to support psychology theory and Semiotic history. The paper reports the similarities between Ancient Persian and old European mythologies to argue that those mythologies have a common source in spite of its different geographical regions. Mixing these sport symbols with myths indicates legends achieve to the power of signs. This mixing and fusion concept in sports competitions may represent in athletes to achieve myths’ worth. Also, the results show that sport symbols and signs as well as hero myths follow the same underlying pattern and emerged as national symbols and myths but remain as global ones even in contemporary era.

If it were not for your sacrifices, we would not have the lives and opportunities we have now. Having your constant love and support means the world to me. You are both my North Stars for everything I do. I would also like to acknowledge my sister for convincing Mom and Dad to let you name me after two of your greatest childhood role models, superheroines, and cultural icons. The Pink Power Ranger and The Queen of Tejano music are both pretty huge namesakes to live up to. I hope I do their legacies justice and that I am making you proud. I know I do not say this to you often but know that, through all our ups and downs, you were my hero growing up.
