  "Emile, or On Education" is a novel written by Jean-Jacques Rousseau and published in 1762. The book is a treatise on education and focuses on the development of a single individual, Emile, from infancy to adulthood. 
  Rousseau's novel is notable for its emphasis on natural education, or the idea that children should be allowed to learn through their own experiences and interactions with the world around them. The book is divided into five sections, each of which focuses on a different stage of Emile's life and the corresponding education he should receive. 
  In the first section, Rousseau argues that children should be allowed to develop naturally and that their education should be based on their own interests and abilities. He also emphasizes the importance of physical education and the need for children to learn through play. 
  In the second section, Rousseau discusses the importance of developing Emile's sense of morality and character, emphasizing the need for him to learn to be honest, courageous, and independent. 
  The third section focuses on Emile's intellectual education, including the importance of developing his reasoning abilities and critical thinking skills. 
  In the fourth section, Rousseau discusses Emile's social education, including his interactions with other people and the importance of developing his empathy and understanding of others. 
  Finally, in the fifth section, Rousseau discusses the importance of Emile's religious education and the role that religion should play in his life. 
  Overall, "Emile, or On Education" is a significant work in the history of educational philosophy, and it continues to be studied and debated by scholars and educators today.

  The Roman Empire and Byzantine...

  Charles River Editors

  For the people of the ancient Mediterranean and beyond, the city of Rome had been a symbol of power for centuries, and entering the early 5th century CE, the Eternal City hadn’t been taken by an enemy force since the Gauls had done it about 800 years earlier, an unheard of period of tranquility in a world wracked with almost constant warfare. 
  Thus, when the Visigoths, whom the Romans considered uncultured and inferior, took the city of Rome and sacked it in 410, the world was stunned. It made theologians of the newly Christianized empire question God’s plan on Earth, and it encouraged many leading Romans to look east to Constantinople for their future. Indeed, the Western Roman Empire would completely collapse in the late 5th century, less than 70 years after the Visigoths sacked Rome, and just how it went from being a superpower to a poorly led, weak, and vulnerable shadow of its former self has preoccupied historians for centuries. 
  To this day, it remains difficult to trace just when the decline began, but it’s fair to say that the sack of Rome was the result of a number of factors that had been coalescing for many years. In the end, the fall of the Roman Empire was not a tale of cataclysmic events that shattered the sprawling power, but the culmination of centuries of internal dissent and decay, combined with growing external threats that led to gradual decline and eventually to the empire’s final destruction.  
  In terms of geopolitics, perhaps the most seminal event of the Middle Ages was the successful Ottoman siege of Constantinople in 1453. The city had been an imperial capital as far back as the 4th century, when Constantine the Great shifted the power center of the Roman Empire there, effectively establishing two almost equally powerful halves of antiquity’s greatest empire. Constantinople would continue to serve as the capital of the Byzantine Empire even after the Western half of the Roman Empire collapsed.

  Did you know that not all Romans could wear togas? 
  Movies and shows might depict Romans wearing togas and sandals everywhere they went, but that was actually not the case. In fact, togas were considered formal wear and a status symbol, as those in the higher social classes typically wore them. 
  There are many surviving writings authored by ancient Roman historians that describe the interesting traditions and customs of ancient Rome. These records provide detailed insights and scenes of the empire’s past. Some throw in a few myths, while some are infused with bias. Because of this, it can be difficult for curious listeners to distinguish between facts and opinions.

  Campus Free Speech - A Pocket Guide

  Cass R. Sunstein

  Free speech is indispensable on college campuses: allowing varied views and frank exchanges of opinion is a core component of the educational enterprise. But free speech does not mean a free-for-all. The First Amendment prohibits "abridging the freedom of speech," yet laws against perjury or bribery, for example, are still constitutional. In the same way, valuing freedom of speech does not stop a university from regulating speech when doing so is necessary for its educational mission. So where is the dividing line? How can we distinguish reasonable restrictions from impermissible infringement? 
   
   
   
  In this pragmatic, no-nonsense explainer, Cass Sunstein takes us through a wide range of scenarios involving students, professors, and administrators. He discusses why it's consistent with the First Amendment to punish students who shout down a speaker, but not those who chant offensive slogans; why a professor cannot be fired for writing a politically charged op-ed, yet a university might legitimately consider an applicant's political views when deciding whether to hire her. He explains why private universities are not legally bound by the First Amendment yet should, in most cases, look to follow it. And he addresses the thorny question of whether a university should officially take sides on public issues or deliberately keep the institution outside the fray.
