Celt

A lot has been written about the Celts and about their faith and beliefs. Generally this means the druid beliefs that were present in England just before the Romans turned up. The big problem is that the only contemporary reports of this are those written by the Romans themselves. These reports wouldn‟t exactly have been unbiased and wouldn‟t tell us anything about the faith and practices of the Celts further back into history

A quick review of some evidence we do have that may give us some insight into the beliefs and practices of these ancient and half mythical people.

Many claims have been made linking ancient languages with genetically identified prehistoric and modern populations. There is much new ‘evidence’ and intense debate on the validity and appropriateness of such interdisciplinary work. Here Patrick Sims-Williams provides a timely comment on linguistics and the quest for ancient populations.

The study discusses and analyzes the characterization of a secondary character in the movie Black Panther, Erik Killmonger whose status as a villain described as a Machiavellian; a person known to be gruesome and unreliable to acquire everything he desires by any means necessary. The study functions as a source of knowledge for everyone who wishes to comprehend the deeper issue of a secondary character existence in a movie who does not get enough recognition, unlike the main character. This study used collecting and observing methods to acquire the data, Black Panther movie along with the movie script. A Qualitative research method is used to answer the problems of the study. It examined Killmonger’s characterization by using three theories; tridimensional aspects, Black Nationalism, and Machiavellianism. Discussion of Black History counts as a great necessity to give a clearer sense of the character’s background who described as an African-American male. Lastly, a descriptive metho...

IntroductionIn this article we set out to analyse, from an archaeological point of view, a political problem which, as demonstrated by current debate, including acts of violence, goes well beyond archaeology. Throughout the 19th century, and especially in its latter half, a centralist political model for Spain was developed in which a political balance could not be found between the State and [lie autonomous traditions of the varions regions of the Iherian Peninsula. As a result of this failure, legitimation programmes began to be constructed towards the end of 19th century, based on the history of the peoples of these regions. This led to a search in protohistorical archaeology [Iberians, Celts, Tartessians, etc.) for a possible solution to the political problems caused by a lack of institutional agreement between states and regions.

This article distinguishes between critical and reconciliatory postcolonialisms, arguing that the former seeks radical alternatives to modernity based on non-Western traditions and lifeways, while the latter works to reconcile colonized peoples to colonialism. It argues further that ...

Es difícil encontrar en la historia de Europa Occidental otros pueblos que levanten tantas pasiones y que sean protagonistas de teorías diametralmente diferentes entre los investigadores en cuanto a su origen, desarrollo y extensión como los celtas. Bárbaros por antonomasia de la periferia occidental del mundo clásico hasta la conquista de la mayor parte de sus territorios por Roma. No se caracterizaron por una elevada cultura material, sino por su arrojo y valor en el combate y por la pericia de sus artesanos, habiendo su cultura y su lengua sobrevivido y evolucionado hasta la actualidad en el extremo occidental atlántico del continente. La presente obra, en consonancia con el espíritu de esta serie, traza los hitos fundamentales de su devenir histórico, tendiéndose, por su propia naturaleza divulgativa, a utilizar en la misma un lenguaje asequible y cercano, no por ello falto de rigor. A modo de introducción en este apasionante tema, el lector podrá encontrar una sucinta pero bien documentada secuencia de los conocimientos actuales que se manejan sobre los pueblos célticos en general, y de forma más detallada sobre los pueblos indoeuropeos, celtas y celtizados, que habitaban por aquel entonces la Península Ibérica.

Three novels entitled Brionne, The Californios, and Hondo written by Louis L’Amour reveal the hard life in the western frontier of America which was still wilderness. L’Amour shows the macho characteristics and attitudes through his macho characters. They apply the macho characteristics such as strength, bravery, virility, and manliness but remaining sensitivity. They also possess macho attitudes such as protective, honest, intelligent, with an aesthetic personality.

The text points out several imprecise and incomplete data used in the introduction to the cited work, and thus questions the certainty of the presented conclusions. The author bases his arguments on a recent comprehensive analysis of the LC burial site in Slatinky-"Nivky" (Prichystal M. 2003) during which the "discovery" of field diaries written by A. Gottwald, K. Dobes and F. Trcala have allowed us to create the first reconstruction of the history of excavations, collect descriptions of uncovered graves, and create a catalogue of all preserved inventory. The work contains, first of all, a detailed summary of newly found information on the history, site and extent of excavation works that the arriving Celts (phase VII) apparently dominated the representatives of late Lusatian culture both politically and economically. In this theory, both groups thus continued to bury their dead at a common burial site for the entire duration of the LT B phase, according to their individual rites and customs, and the local population only gradually adopted certain new elements until finally succumbing to latenisation (Gedl 1979, 62-67, 71-72; 1985, 47-48). Recently, however, H. Parzinger (1993, 510) showed that there exists a certain interval between phases VI (Lusatian) and VII (La Tene) of the Kietrz necropolis, and that it is thus necessary to shift the conclusion of the LC in Upper Silesia to the end of the LT A phase as well, or no later than the beginning of the LT B 1 phase. We are currently not aware of any documentation showing the survival of LC in central and northern Moravia (and in neighbouring parts of Silesia) deep into the La Tene period; there thus remains a somewhat provocative question: to what extent can the early La Tene development in this region still be connected with Lusatian culture?.

Teachers often regard literature as inappropriate to the language classroom. Teaching literature in foreign language classroom becomes essential if teachers are concerned with the meaningful foreign language learning activities experienced by the students. It is not sufficient to only emphasize on acquiring mastery of structure andform but also involves acquiring the ability to interpret literary discourse in all its social and cultural contexts. Accordingly, this study focuses on literature exposure in English language teaching and learning. This study which is a descriptive qualitative study was endorsed the data from two sources: namely is the English lecturer and the students of the English Department of UMM The instruments used included interview and questionnaire. The result of the analysis indicates literature exposure has an essential role in English language learning because it is beneficial to the learners' linguistic development, create opportunities for personal expr...
