In our Department of English MKBU on 26th july 2018 we had movie screening of The Scarlet Letter. This novel is written by Natheniel Hawthorne. I have found the difference between movie and the original novel. 1)In the novel we can find that novel opens with custom  house but in  the movie we can find other burial seen. 2)  In the novel we can find first that Hester Prynne was  with her daughter Pearl  but in movie Story begins with love story of Hester Prynne and Dimmesdale. 3) In novel author mentioned the letter 'A' on Dimmesdale' s chest but in movie we can not find it. 4) In movie the daughter of Hester 'pearl'is still little and she has not any relationship with nature. But in novel Hawthorne mentioned good relationship with nature  of  Pearl. 5)In the  movie we find the relationship of Hester with her slave as Master slave relationship but in the  novel we are not able to find it. 6)In the movie Roger Chillingworth was a...

On 26th july in our Department we watch movie The Scarlet Letter. This is based on novel of Nathaniel Hawthorne. The story begins in seventeenth-century Boston, then a Puritan settlement. A young woman,  Hester Prynne, is led from the town prison with her infant daughter, pearl,  her arms and the scarlet letter “A” on her breast. A man in the crowd tells an elderly onlooker that Hester is being punished for adultery. Hester’s husband, a scholar much older than she is, sent her ahead to America, but he never arrived in Boston. The consensus is that he has been lost at sea. While waiting for her husband, Hester has apparently had an affair, as she has given birth to a child. She will not reveal her lover’s identity, however, and the scarlet letter, along with her public shaming, is her punishment for her sin and her secrecy. On this day Hester is led to the town scaffold and harangued by the town fathers, but she again refuses to identify her child’s father. The eld...

1 )"The Embankment" by T. E. Hulme In this poem poet describe about the fallen of man in hard time. Modern poets rejected the doctrine of art for arts sake . They use art for life sake. Modern literature focus on Realism. The realism of the age has further been enhanced by scientific discoveries. The poem explain the situation of poor people and about fallen man. In the poem we have found the symbol of Golden heels,old star  which presents the modern era. Some images came here is that Finesses of fiddles,Star-eaten blanket. The gentleman is the metaphor. The speaker face the problem to get basic requirements of man life so he pray to God to make blanket of sky. 2) 'The Darkness ' by Joseph Campbell. The title of poem forcing us to think about that. But when we read poem we realize that it is not about darkness. It symbolized the stars brightness and shine. It also present the modern image of Bog hole. We also find metaphor like star shine in bog hole an...

'The waste Land 'poem by T.S.Eliot. This poem is divided in 5 parts. All parts make various images about  The Waste Land. 1) What are your views on the following image after reading The Waste Land? Do you think that Eliot is regressive as compared to Nietzsche's view?or has Eliot achieved universality of thought by recalling mytho-historical answer to the contemporary malaise? In Nietzsche's Ubermensch  we find morality. Nietzsche's point is about superhuman and Eliot's point is about backward looking . Both are right on their  own view but the also different from each other. In the poem Eliot believes in God , spirituality and religion. In other side Nietzsche believes in superhuman who has strength and believe in own self. In our history also we can find that type of people who did not believe in God and try to rulling on people. That is good to see that one has possibilities of his/her own but if he/she tries to rulling over the people then one day G...

We find oneness in whole literature. All literature connected with each other,all those which are already written,those being written and those yet to be written. One must have an understanding of this continuity. T.S. Eliot's view T.S.Eliot said  in his  Tradition and individual talent that the best and the most individual part of poet's work is that reflects maximum influence of writers of past. He also said that no poets ,no artist of any art has his complete meaning alone. His appreciation is the application of his relationship with dead poets. Northrop Frye He developed the theory of Archetypal criticism. He said that the whole literature has oneness of its existence. All share oneness and common DNA or skeleton. We find oneness of literature in T.S.Eliot's 'The Waste Land' and Anton Chekhov's short story 'A Joke'. In Waste land we find this lines is connected with Chekhov's short story. 'And when we were children Staying at the...
