This book could be compared to the gleaming scarlet steam engine that appears halfway through J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter and the Philosopher's stone (1997). The Hogwarts Express that carries students to the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry at the start of term is a revelation to the first-year students who may have heard about it from their parents and older siblings but never actually sat in its carriages, heard its whistle or tasted Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans from the food trolley. One could argue that task-based language teaching researchers were in need of a bit of magic and Craig Lambert, Scott Audrey and Gavin Bui have done a great job of inviting them to Platform 9 ¾ to board the train that will allow them to explore and expand their understanding of the role of emotion in TBLT. The comparison of magic and emotion could be expanded further. In chapter 1, Lambert and colleagues acknowledge that TBLT researchers have been rather slow in understanding that the cogs that turn during pedagogic task performance can only do so when they are well-oiled. In other words, the best task will fail if the students are not in the right emotional state. We joked in Dewaele, Botes and Greiff (2022) that teachers that can boost learners' levels of enjoyment, control their anxiety and banish their boredom may indeed appear to possess magical powers in the eyes of students.

As name implies artificial intelligence is making the machines like human that can think like human and can do the work like human. Now a days’ in every step of our life we are using artificial intelligence like when we use Google and another shopping sites that sites using artificial intelligence understand that what user prefer. In many companies and industries human workers are replacing by the artificial machines that machines can do more work than human and never tried and there is one time cost of that machines. Now robots are going to develop which looks like human and scientist are trying to put emotions in them. As the artificial is good for us same like it can be dangers’ for us. So in this paper I tried to find out how AI affects our modern life firstly I tried to explain what artificial intelligence is. Than from what artificial intelligence is got or branches of artificial intelligence. Here I also give the fields where AI is used like in transportation, in journalism, ...
Uno scritto di qualche decennio fa, che ho sempre utilizzato per informazione sommaria utile ad orientare gli studenti dei miei corsi a Tor Vergata.
The article deals with the series of anthropomorphic maps from the sixteenth century, representing Europe in female form, and nowadays collectively known as Europa Regina. The first such map was conceived by Johann Putsch from Innsbruck (Ioannes Bucius Aenicola, 1516–1542), as a visual companion to his poem Europa Lamentans, dedicated to archduke and king Ferdinand I Habsburg and his brother Charles V. It has been thought that the earliest version of the Putsch map was the one printed in 1537 in Paris. However, in 2019 the existence of an earlier copy, kept in the Retz museum, Lower Austria became widely known. This copy was printed in 1534, together with the poem Europa Lamentans and the special dedication to Ferdinand. Curiously enough, the map from 1534 was mentioned by German theologian Johann Sigismund Mörl in the late eighteenth century, but it nonetheless remained unnoticed until recently. The representation of Europe as a woman became widely popular at the end of the sixteenth century when new adaptations of Putsch maps appeared: a more detailed one, by Matthias Quad and Johann Bussemacher printed in Cologne (1587), and two smaller and simplified ones, in editions of Heinrich Bunting’s Travel book through Holy Scripture (1587) and Sebastian Münster’s Cosmography (1588) respectively. Besides the description of these maps, their authors and publishers, the article also deals with their representation of southeastern parts of European continent. It is proposed that Putsch, in addition to the Ptolemaic Geography, was familiar with the Tabula Hungariae by Lázár deák, printed in 1528, or a very similar map. Namely, the same inscriptions, identifying Serbia with Moesia Superior and Bulgaria with Moesia Inferior, appear both on Lázár’s map of Hungary and Putsh map of Europe. The edition by Quad and Bussemacher contains several interesting additions, including the enigmatic town of Polawizo, near Adriatic Coast, which is identified as Podgorica, modern capital of Montenegro. The map from Munster’s Cosmography is also intriguing from the local point of view, as it contains only three cities: Paris, Constantinople and Belgrade, thus symbolically presenting the modern capital of Serbia as one of the main strongholds of Europe and its identity.
