Dryads were originally the spirits of oak trees but the name was later applied to all tree nymphs. It was believed that they lived only as long as the trees they inhabited. Sude-Eylül Dryad Story The philosophical ideas of Empedocles, especially his views on nature, are almost a synthesis of the views of Ionian thinkers before him. The water of Thales, the air of Anaximenes, the soil of Xenophanes and the fire of Heraclitus and his teachings on these main substances the basis for the formation of Empedocles’ four main substance theory Emrullah-Ece M Dryad Story For Empedocles, “water, air, earth and fire” are the roots of the universe.According to his claim, these roots or these elements (arkhe) have always existed from time immemorial, but they mixed with each other in certain proportions and created this familiar face of the universe. All beings emerged from these four elements and thanks to these four elements they will exist. Serap-Yağmur Dryad Story The four elements of Empedocles (four elements, four principles, four roots, four main substances, four arcs or four elements) are different forms of matter. Solid, liquid, gas, ice, water, fire, etc. These are different states of the same substance, that is, the same main substance. These four elements, according to him, are combined or separated by the opposition of Love (Philia) and Hate (Neikos). Because Love brings the elements together, Hate separates them. Selcan- Çağlar Dryad Story The four elements of Empedocles (four elements, four principles, four roots, four main substances, four arcs or four elements) are different forms of matter. Solid, liquid, gas, ice, water, fire, etc. These are different states of the same substance, that is, the same main substance. These four elements, according to him, are combined or separated by the opposition of Love (Philia) and Hate (Neikos). Because Love brings the elements together, Hate separates them. Semanur- Ece G ŞEHİT ÜSTEĞMEN MURAT YILDIZ ANATOLIAN MULTI-PROGRAM HIGH SCHOOL ILGI DILMEN TEAMS HÜSEYİN RECA İLGİ ZİLAN ESMA ASİYE KÜBRA NAZAR Dryad Story Ms. Nagehan has been doing research for the project she has been wanting to write for a long time. His intention was to address a global problem with an environmental-themed project and to raise awareness of the issue among students. How the virus, which has affected the whole world for a year, turned life upside down. In fact, what happened was a very important message that people should be more sensitive to the environment. Why did we have to go through all this? Because we were selfish. We spent the water like unlimited, we built sites in fertile lands. We unconsciously polluted the air we breathe. We've left many plant and animal species homeless. There is no need to look away at the perpetrators of the problems we are experiencing today. We must rectify our mistakes as soon as possible. Dryads should meet their trees now. Asiye- Zilan Dryad Story DREAM “In order to achieve great things, it is not enough to act, to dream of what we want to do, to dream of what we want to do; it is necessary to believe that the dream will come true. "Anatole France Four elements of Empedoleks throughout the day are "fire, air, water, earth"; Ms. Nagehan, who was busy with Dryads who lived just as much as the trees they lived in, fell asleep with the dream of her new project that completely covered her mind. She met Letsinia in her dream. Letsinia wanted to regain the rose wood that was home to her and her family years ago. Letsinia had been looking for someone who could help her for a long time. With the increase of hatred, the balance in nature was disrupted, and like many Dryads, he was homeless. Nagehan’s excitement while reading the information about them made her hope. Letsinia did not come to the dream of Nagehan alone: Thales, Anaximenes, Xenophanes, Heraclitus also accompanied her. Kübra-Hüseyin-Esma Dryad Story "Man is like a tree, his root is to stand in his covenant." Rumi I promise, I promise Ms. Nagehan opened her eyes. She smiled to herself, after shuffling between sleep and wakefulness. "It was a dream!" he said, but this word hurt his heart. The beautiful face of Dryad Letsina came before her eyes. Then he remembered the others. Letsinia was not alone. Thales, Anaximenes, Xenophanes and Heraclitus were with him. He had promised he would work to restore the balance in the world. Fire, air, water, soil are the four main elements and problems were experienced because the balance between these elements was disrupted. Love was replaced by hate. Something had to be done. He immediately called his school friend Mr. Fatih. When the phone was opened, with the effect of the dream, "I promised." Mr. Fatih said, first he did not understand. "What promise?" he said confused. This promise brought Ms. Nagehan to herself. “I need your help for the environmental project I have been thinking about writing for a long time. Let's make our plan as soon as possible and create our team. I want to bring Letsinia to the rose tree. "said Reca-Nazar Dryad Story The Four Main Elements "First learn the four roots of everything: Shining Zeus (Fire), life-giving Hera (Air), Hades (Earth), and Nestis (Water), whose tears nourish the sources of life for mortal people." EMPEDOKLES Fatih Bey was surprised; He realized that something different was happening. They immediately agreed with Mrs. Nagehan about the place and the time and hung up the phone for the first meeting. While Mrs. Nagehan was thinking of Letsinia, Fatih Bey Nagehan was trying to make sense of her hectic state. Ms. Nagehan was doing research on Dryads who did not leave her mind while doing research for the environment project that day. SEDA-MEHMET Dryad Story When she learned that there were immortal ones among the draids who were born with the tree and died with the tree, she thought of Letsinia again. She was amazed that she was delighted with the idea that a creature she dreamed could be immortal. She was so caught up in these thoughts that she fell asleep on the computer. EMRULLAH Dryad Story Dream 2 Nagehan Hanım found herself in a forest, but this place was more of gray and its shades than green. She shuddered suddenly, there were people coming towards her. The one in front of them was Letsini. Everywhere she passed was green, but then she was getting gray again. `` Letsinia knew she would keep her promise, '' she said, `` I'll be happy to have her home. '' Nagehan, when she saw that the drayd Letsinia's supporters were Thales, Anaximenes, Xenophanes and Heraclitus, she understood that they represented the four main elements. It was Love and Hate that moved the elements of air, fire, earth, and water. Development in nature consisted in the struggle for equal power between these two. So what had happened that hatred had prevailed in the last war, dissipated these four main elements, pushed the draids away from their tree nests? When Nagehan woke up, she asked the same question to herself once again; how had hate prevailed, love conquered? İSMAİL--BERKANT Agrupamento de Escolas Santos Simões Guimarães, Portugal Filomena Costa Team (Students: Bruna, Cátia, Daniela, Inês e Otília) Dryad Story In fact Nagehan was not quite sure whether she was awake or asleep, but it was in this sleepy state that she thought she had found the answer. As long as Love, by itself, wants to fight a battle against Hate, Hate will always win, because war is Hate itself. BRUNA Dryad Story In Nagehan dream, Letsinia was asking for her help so that she could return home, to her lovely tree. But for that happen, the 4 elements would have to be reunited, and this task would require many combined efforts. For Love to prevail over Hate and for none of the four elements to prevail over the other, all the Dryads, all over the world, would have to go back to live in their own trees, everything would have to return to the natural order. CÁTIA Dryad Story And this would never be possible if each Dryad tried to fight their battle alone. All the Dryads would have to come together and work collaboratively trying to help each other. Only then the harmony between the four elements would be restored and the gray landscape would once again be painted green and blue. DANIELA Dryad Story IThe solution seemed to have been found, and Nagehan was full of hope that she could somehow contribute to the preservation of her beloved Planet. And now that she was wide awake, she doubted the existence of these magical creatures that had appeared to her in her dreams, but she had no doubt that the solution was indeed collaboration among all the people all around the world. INÊS Dryad Story She was even more certain that she had surrounded herself by the greatest elements of nature: children and young people who are truly committed to learn and work together to transform the World so that it can continue to be our home and that of future generations.

    Teaching American Literature: A Journal of Theory and Practice Winter 2008 (2:1) Visual Aid: Teaching H.D.'s Imagist Poetry with the Assistance of Henri Matisse Christa Baiada, Borough of Manhattan Community College, CUNY The mantra of the modernist movement, articulated by Ezra Pound, was "make it new." Unfortunately, students don't always know how to approach "new" styles of literature, especially poetry that itself daunts many students. As we've all observed, if not experienced for ourselves, modernist poetry, upon first encounter, can be especially intimidating. In the spirit of making it new, this poetry often appears obscure in its density, perspective, and complexity. Students may look at a poem like "The Red Wheel Barrow" and ask "how is this poetry?" Of course, this is precisely the question we want to work through with them, so this is good. On the other hand, the initial discomfort of students with modernism can develop into a resistance hard to tackle. This is a challenge I found especially difficult to address in my early attempts to teach the poems of H.D. at a small, suburban music college in Long Island, NY. For my first lesson at the start of a unit on modernism in an undergraduate 200-level, Introduction to Literature class, I would devote the entire period to H.D. because I believe that her work beautifully encapsulates many of the principles of modernism laid out by Pound in his seminal essay "A Retrospect." Though several of my students have been fans, or even writers, of poetry and most had artistic sensibilities, many were disconcerted in their first encounter with modernist poetry via H.D., and the malaise they felt would linger in the following weeks as we read additional modernist poets.

No. _Zv_^ _ii ALL RIGHTS RESERVED INTRODUCTION Our grandfathers regarded the study of mythology as a necessary adjunct to a polite education, without a knowledge of which neither the classical nor the more modem poets could be read with understanding. But it is now recognised that upon mythology and folklore rests the basis of the new science of Comparative Religion. The evolution of religion from mythology has now been made plain. It is a law of evolution that, though the parent types which precede certain forms are doomed to perish, they yet bequeath to their descendants certain of their characteristics ; and although mythology has perished (in the civilised world, at least), it has left an indelible stamp not only upon modem religions, but also upon local and national custom. The work of Fruger, Lang, Immerwahr, and others has revolutionised mythology, and has evolved from the unexplained mass of tales of forty years ago a definite and systematic science.

  • The Classical Mythology of Milton's English Poems
    YALE STUDIES IN ENGLISH ALBERT S. COOK, Editor VIII THE CLASSICAL MYTHOLOGY OF Milton's English poems CHARLES GROSVENOR OSGOOD, Ph.D. NEW YORK HENRY HOLT AND COMPANY igoo Ss9a Copyright, igoo, BY CHARLES GROSVENOR OSGOOD, Ph.D. J^ 7/SS TO PROFESSQR ALBERT S. COOK AND PROFESSOR THOMAS D. SEYMOUR — PREFACE The student who diligently peruses the lines of a great poem may go far toward a realization of its char- acter. He may appreciate, in a degree, its loveliness, strength, and direct hold upon the catholic truth of life. But he will be more sensitive to these appeals, and receive gifts that are richer and less perishable, accord- ing as he comprehends the forces by whose interaction the poem was produced. These are of two kinds the innate forces of the poet's character, and certain more external forces, such as, in the case of Milton, are represented by Hellenism and Hebraism. Their activ- ity is greatest where they meet and touch, and at this point their nature and measure are most easily dis- cerned. From a contemplation of the poem in its gene- sis one returns to a deeper understanding and enjoyment of it as a completed whole. The present study, though it deals with but one of the important cultural influ- ences affecting Milton, and with it but in part, endeav- ors by this method to deepen and clarify the apprecia- tion of his art and teaching. My interest in the present work has found support and encouragement in the opinions of Mr. Churton Collins, as expressed in his valuable book.

  • 2016 TCU APSI for English Teaching Poe To
    Texas Christian University 2016 TCU APSI for English Teaching Poe to the "Walking Dead" generation Jerry W. Brown [email protected] website: www.jerrywbrown.com Jerry W. Brown 2016 TCU APSI [email protected] 1 "The Philosophy of Composition" is an 1846 essay written by Edgar Allan Poe that expounds a theory about how good writers write when they write well: major points of Poe’s essay covering the elements he considers most necessary to “effective” literary composition. 1. Know the ending in advance, before you begin writing. “Nothing is more clear,” writes Poe, “than that every plot, worth the name, must be elaborated to its dénouement before any thing be attempted with the pen.” Once writing commences, the author must keep the ending “constantly in view” in order to “give a plot its indispensable air of consequence” and inevitability. 2. Keep it short—the “single sitting” rule. Poe contends that “if any literary work is too long to be read at one sitting, we must be content to dispense with the immensely important effect derivable from unity of impression.” Force the reader to take a break, and “the affairs of the world interfere” and break the spell. This “limit of a single sitting” admits of exceptions, of course. It must—or the novel would be disqualified as literature. Poe cites Robinson Crusoe as one example of a work of art “demanding of no unity.” But the single sitting rule applies to all poems, and for this reason, he writes, Milton’s Paradise Lost fails to achieve a sustained effect.

  • The Nightingale's Lament and Itys' Identity in Ovid's Metamorphoses
    The Nightingale’s Lament and Itys’ Identity in Ovid’s Metamorphoses A thesis submitted by Michal Hannah Sagal In partial fulfilment for the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts in Classics Tufts University May 2016 Adviser: Professor Marie-Claire Beaulieu ii ABSTRACT The story of the nightingale has many versions, but these can be reduced to two plots from which the others grow. In the first, Aedon, married to Zethus, kills her son by accident. She intends to kill the oldest son of Niobe, who is married to the brother of Aedon’s husband. In the second version, Procne kills her son to avenge the rape of her sister, Philomela, at the hands of Procne’s own husband. The stories end in the same way: both mothers are transformed into a nightingale and lament their son Itys, singing his name eternally. In most versions of the story, Itys’ identity is defined by the nightingale’s lament. Ovid, however, suppresses the lament. The effect of this is to give Itys and his mother, Procne, identities that are separate from the nightingale’s lament, and to give Itys a voice of his own. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project was over a year in the making, from seedling idea and initial research to the final product. After all this time, I owe thanks to quite a few people. First and foremost to Professor Marie-Claire Beaulieu, my adviser throughout this whole process. She patiently read and thoroughly commented on anything I sent to her for review, from snippet of an introduction to in-progress outline to full, final paper.
