Like Star Wars or The Lord of the Rings or the fictional Old West or feudal Japan in samurai films, classical mythology consists not only of a corpus of stories but also of a world, one with a geography and a history as well as relationships and rules and narrative conventions. Whereas most works on classical mythology focus their attention on the stories, neglecting the world in which they are situated, the present book explores both elements in an effort to give each its due. The result is a sort of ethnography of the imaginary.

All fields of research agree on the need to document scholarly borrowings, but documentation conventions vary because of the different needs of scholarly disciplines. MLA style for documentation is widely used in the humanities, especially in writing on language and literature. Generally simpler and more economical than other styles, MLA style features brief parenthetical citations in the text keyed to an alphabetical list of works cited that appears at the end of the work.

MLA style has been widely adopted by schools, academic departments, and instructors for over half a century. The association's guidelines are also used by over 1,100 scholarly and literary journals, newsletters, and magazines and by many university and commercial presses. The MLA's guidelines are followed throughout North America and in Brazil, China, India, Japan, Taiwan, and other countries around the world.

 

For my "friend and brother" dove (dovesnake)

This is a collection of 6 pdf files. 4 of them are about Prepositions and 1 is for Nouns and 1 is for Verbs. All of them are like a picture dictionary for teaching and learning those parts of speech through pictures. So I named them "Parts of Speech through Pictures". They are available in the net ( in most of the cases the source is mentioned) and I choose them for sharing as I believe in the power of visualisation in Learning and Teaching. Think you will agree too.
