44. Prose 23 How fit even as her feathers be only for shooting, so be her quills fit onlyfor writing. (Roger Ascham's 15151568 Toxophilus was published in 1545. http://www.petercollingwood.co.uk/prose_23.htm

Prose 23 from Toxophilus Toxophilus: For there is no one thing, in all shooting, so much to be looked on as the feather. For first a question may be asked, whether any other thing beside a feather be fit for a shaft or no? If a feather only be fit, whether a goose feather only or no? If a goose be best, then whether of an old goose or a young goose; a gander or a goose; a fenny goose or uplandish goose. Again which is best feather in any goose, the right wing or the left wing, the pinion feather or any other feather; a white, black or gray feather?........ (and so on!) Philologus: What if I come into a shop and spy out a bow, which shall both then please me very well when I buy him, and be also very fit and meet for me when I shoot in him: so that he be both weak enough for easy shooting, and also quick and speedy enough for far shooting, then I would think I shall need no more business with him, but be content with him, and use him well enough, and so by that means, avoid both great trouble, and also some cost which you cunning archers very often put your selves unto, being very English men, never ceasing piddling about your bow and shafts when they be well, but either with shortening and piking your bows, or else with new feathering, piecing and heading your shafts, can never have done until they be stark naught. Toxophilus For the goose is man's comfort in war and peace, sleeping and waking. What praise so ever be given to shooting, the goose may challenge the best part in it. How well doth she make a man fare at his table? How easily doth she make a man lie in his bed? How fit even as her feathers be only for shooting, so be her quills fit only for writing

INGHILTERRA E FRANCIA TRA '500 E '700 Come durante il Medioevo, anche nel corso dei secoli che vanno dalla meta' del '500 al '700, in Italia, Francia e Inghilterra coesistevano due tendenze contrapposte: da una parte la nascita irrefrenabile di sempre nuove forme letterarie, dall'altra la moltiplicazione esponenziale delle categorizzazioni dei generi, piu' o meno antichi, nonche' i tentativi di decidere quali erano quelli di piu' alto valore. I seguenti sono solo alcuni degli esempi piu' celebri: Roger ASCHAM (c. 1515-1568) riprese come fonte Quintiliano e propose 4 grandi classi poetiche: poesia, storia, filosofia, oratoria. Ognuna era a sua volta suddivisa in sottoclassi, a loro volta ordinate gerarchicamente. Della poesia, ad esempio, era la tragedia la forma considerata piu' importante. Philip SIDNEY (1554-1586) riprese dallo Scaligero la suddivisione dei poeti in tre gruppi: religiosi, filosofici e "veri" poeti. Tra questi ultimi: gli epici, i lirici, i tragici, i comici, etc. Gli eroici (o epici) erano i piu' grandi. Piu' interessante e originale l'analisi di Thomas HOBBES (1588-1679). Per Hobbs, i vari

Aristotle (384-322 BC) Metaphysica Today, it is not only that our kings do not know mathematics, but our philosophers do not know mathematics. Julius Robert Oppenheimer (1904-1967) Life would be stunted and narrow if we could feel no significance in the world around us beyond that which can be weighed and measured with the tools of the physicist or described by the metrical symbols of the mathematician. Sir Arthur Stanley Eddington As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain; and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality Albert Einstein I don't believe in mathematics. Albert Einstein Do not worry about your problems with mathematics, I assure you mine are far greater. Albert Einstein If it's green, it's biology, If it stinks, it's chemistry, If it has numbers it's math, If it doesn't work, it's technology Unknown I think of lotteries as a tax on the mathematically challenged.

Humanising Language Teaching Year 2; Issue 2; March 2000 Double Translation by Malcolm Benson One of the great "Golden Oldie" language learning techniques was "double translation", which is generally associated with the name of Roger Ascham (1515-1568). It is one of the old grammar-translation exercises that pupils did in Tudor times, mostly between vernacular languages and Latin. Despite that, you might like to try it with your students. What to do: Select a piece of English that is not too technical and is at the students' own reading level. I find it best to take one passage and divide it up into sections of about 50 words, though it is best if each section is coherent within itself. Ask the students for a translation into their native language(s). They can use a dictionary or any other help they can get (e.g., work in pairs on it), but at the end they give in the translation and the original. After some time (a day, a week) give them back their L1 version, and ask them to put it back into English again. The students now look at their own version side by side with the original. They may find their own version better than the original, or about the same, or worse. any case they will get out the dictionary, and probably ask the teacher for explana- tions.
