In pastoral literature, the countryside is not simply a place. Rather, it takes on symbolic weight for it reflects certain dreams and values of the author. What does the Forest of Arden symbolize in As You Like It?

In pastoral literature, the countryside is not simply a place

In pastoral literature, the countryside is not simply a place. Rather, it takes on symbolic weight for it reflects certain dreams and values of the author.

Firstly,what does the Forest of Arden symbolize in As You Like It?(There are various possible answers to this question, so you only need to offer a plausible interpretation.)

Lastly,i will attach the play from Shakespeare.Also,need some evidence from text in the short essay

More details

The tradition was pass on, through Bion, Moschus, and Longus, from Greece to Rome, where Virgil (who transferred the setting from Sicily to Arcadia, in the Greek Peloponnese, now the symbol of a pastoral paradise) used the device of alluding to contemporary problems—agrarian, political, and personal—in the rustic society he portrayed. His Eclogues exerted a powerful effect on poets of the Renaissance, including Dante, Petrarch, and Giovanni Boccaccio in Italy; Pierre de Ronsard in France; and Garcilaso de la Vega in Spain.

Old and New Testaments

These were further influence by medieval Christian commentators on Virgil and by the pastoral scenes of the Old and New Testaments (Cain and Abel, David, the Bethlehem shepherds, and the figure of Christ the good shepherd).During the 16th and 17th centuries, too, pastoral romance novels (by Jacopo Sannazzaro, Jorge de Montemayor, Miguel de Cervantes, and Honoré d’Urfé) appeared, as did in the 15th and 16th centuries the pastoral drama (by Torquato Tasso and Battista Guarini).

Pastoral literature

In English poetry there had been some examples of pastoral literature in the earlier 16th century, but the appearance in 1579 of Edmund Spenser’s Shepheardes Calender, which imitated not only classical models but also the Renaissance poets of France and Italy, brought about a vogue for the pastoral. Sir Philip Sidney, Robert Greene, Thomas Nash, Christopher Marlowe, Michael Drayton, Thomas Dekker, John Donne, Sir Walter Raleigh, Thomas Heywood, Thomas Campion, William Browne, William Drummond, and Phineas Fletcher all wrote pastoral poetry.

Shakespeare

This vogue was subject to some satirical comment in William Shakespeare’s As You Like It—itself a pastoral play.)The first English novels, by Robert Greene and Thomas Lodge, were written in the pastoral mode.Also,apart from Shakespeare, playwrights who attempted pastoral drama included John Lyly, George Peele, John Fletcher, Ben Jonson, John Day, and James Shirley.

This paper is a chance for you to learn about a topic of interest relevant to psychology. The broad topic is psychology. You will narrow your topic, gather information about that topic, and then write a 2 to 4-page paper on your well defined, unique topic. The grading criteria and descriptions  below. The rubric is available on page 2.
Picking a Topic | https://guides.lib.byu.edu/c.php?g=216340&p=1428396
Before you begin searching for articles, it helps to have a topic in mind. Start broad and brainstorm. Ask yourself:

What am I interested in?
 have I heard in the news?
What’s something that affects me personally?

It is important to pick a topic that is relevant to you personally, not just one that you think you will be able to find a lot of information on. There is information out there on every topic (the trick is finding the right key words, and we’ll address that in Finding Articles), so don’t worry about being able to find articles.  Remember, you’re going to be spending quite a bit of time with this topic, so pick one that you’re going to enjoy writing about.

Which passage is paraphrased correctly?

Below is the original text. Select which passage is paraphrased correctly.
It’s easy to see how wearable technologies such as Google Glass could quickly become annoying to workers or merely seem invasive. Sixty-six percent of millennials said they would be willing to use wearable technology if it allowed them to do their job better, while 58 percent of total workers were willing, according to a survey last year by Cornerstone OnDemand. That still leaves plenty of people uneasy at the idea of giving employers a pulse on their every move.

Choices

a.Workers are divided on the merits of wearable technology that would allow employers to track employees’ whereabouts. A recent poll by Cornerstone OnDemand found that 66 percent of millennials would use wearable technology if it improved their productivity. A smaller number of total workers (58 percent) agreed. The remaining 33-42 percent may feel uncomfortable about relentless monitoring on the job.

b.It’s not hard to envision how wearable technology, for example, Google Glass, could be seen as intrusive or even irritating. In a recent survey, 66 percent of millennials stated they would use wearable gizmos if they helped them with their jobs as opposed to 58 percent of total workers who agreed. Enough people are apprehensive about allowing employers to keep tabs on everything they do.

What do you think is the usefulness of knowing the results from the IPIP-NEO?
Did you agree with the results?

What  is the usefulness of knowing the results from the IPIP-NEO?

For this assignment, you will take a personality test, the IPIP-NEO (International Personality Item Pool Representation of the NEO PI-R).
First, take either the original or short version (i took short) of the IPIP-NEO.
Next, review the results provided from the MMPI-2 and MCMI-III in the Sample Personality Results Report.

Finally, in your response, reflect on the experience of taking the IPIP-NEO. Consider the following questions in your reflection:
What do you think is the usefulness of knowing the results from the IPIP-NEO?
Did you agree with the results?
How would you feel if you received the feedback from the Sample Personality Results Report?
How do you think these results could inform treatment?
Firstly,guidelines for Submission: Your journal submission should be one to two paragraphs in length.

Secondly,submit the assignment as a Microsoft Word document with double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, and one-inch margins. Be sure to cite any references in APA format.

More details

There has been a substantial increase in the use of personality assessment measures constructed using items from the International Personality Item Pool (IPIP) such as the 300-item IPIP-NEO (Goldberg, 1999), a representation of the Revised NEO Personality Inventory (NEO PI-R; Costa & McCrae, 1992). The IPIP-NEO is free to use and can be modified to accommodate its users’ needs. Despite the substantial interest in this measure, there is still a dearth of data demonstrating its convergence with the NEO PI-R.

More reading

The present study represents an investigation of the reliability and validity of scores on the IPIP-NEO. Additionally, we used item response theory (IRT) methodology to create a 120-item version of the IPIP-NEO. Using an undergraduate sample (n = 359), we examined the reliability, as well as the convergent and criterion validity, of scores from the 300-item IPIP-NEO, a previously constructed 120-item version of the IPIP-NEO (Johnson, 2011), and the newly created IRT-based IPIP-120 in comparison to the NEO PI-R across a range of outcomes.

Scores from all 3 IPIP measures demonstrated strong reliability and convergence with the NEO PI-R and a high degree of similarity with regard to their correlational profiles across the criterion variables (rICC = .983, .972, and .976, respectively).

More details

Until recently, the evolutionary events that surrounded the origin of the hominin lineage — which includes modern humans and our fossil relatives — were virtually unknown, and our phylogenetic relationship with living African apes was highly debated. Gorillas and chimpanzees were commonly regard to be more closely relating to each other due to their high degree of morphological and behavioral similarities, such as their shared mode of locomotion — knuckle-walking. But with the advent of molecular studies it has become clear that chimpanzees share a more recent common ancestor with humans, and are thus more closely related to us than they are to gorillas (e.g., Bailey 1993, Wildman et al. 2003).

The similarities between the living African apes were thought to have been inherited from a common ancestor (=primitive features), implying that the earliest hominins and our last common ancestor shared with chimpanzees had features that were similar, morphologically and behaviorally, to the living African apes (Lovejoy 2009). With the discoveries of the earliest hominin species discussed below, it is now possible to critically examine these assumptions.

Forecast of demand

It is a technique for estimation of probable demand for a product or services in the future. It is based on the analysis of past demand for that product or service in the present market condition. Demand forecasting must be done on a scientific basis and facts and events relating to forecasting must be in consideration.

More explanation 

Therefore, in simple words, we can say that after gathering information about various aspect of the market and demand based on the past, an attempt may be made to estimate future demand. This concept is  forecasting of demand.

For example, suppose we sold 200, 250, 300 units of product X in the month of January, February, and March respectively. Now we can say that there will be a demand for 250 units approx. of product X in the month of April, if the market condition remains the same.
