Far from the Madding Crowd by Thomas Hardy

Image
Far From the Madding Crowd by Thomas Hardy Far From the Madding Crowd  (1874) was  Thomas Hardy ’s first major literary success. Centring on Bathsheba Everdene, a young woman who inherits a small farm, it follows the fortunes of three of her suitors – small-scale farmer Gabriel Oak, the more firmly-established farmer William Boldwood, and soldier Sergeant Troy. A typical pastoral tale, the plot twists and turns as coincidence, disaster, and the hearts of the characters create an ever-moving story. As the seasons pass, loves blossom and wane, and the drama builds to a crescendo that leaves all the characters’ lives changed permanently. As Bathsheba and her suitors stumble through a plot that ambles along, pushed forward by coincidence and the small wants of its characters, it quickly becomes clear that love – from solipsistic to generous – is frequently to be unrequited. Clearly, all three suitors cannot secure Bathsheba’s hand in marriage, and the soap opera-like playing o

Contemporary Debates and Mario Vargos Llosa... Mario Vargos Llosa is a Peruvian writer, politician, journalist, essayist and professor. He is one of Latin America's most significant novelists and essayists, and one of the leading writers of his generation. Some critics consider him to have had a larger international impact and worldwide audience than any other writer of the Latin American Boom. In 2010 he won the Nobel Prize in Literature, "for his cartography of structures of power and his trenchant images of the individual's resistance, revolt, and defeat". The works of Mario Vargas Llosa are viewed as both modernist and postmodernist novels.... #These words are greatest challenge to the democracy. ... *Liberals *Nationalism *Populism *Intellectual Honesty *Literature and Morality *Political Correctness *Freedom and Technology *Liberalism:- Liberalism is the ideology of governmental.Political doctrine that takes protecting and enhancing the

Cultural Studies: Media,Power & Truly Educated Person... "Popular culture  and the mass media have a symbiotic relationship: each depends on the other in an intimate collaboration." — K. Turner (1984), p.4[7] Culture is the social behaviour and norms found in human societies.. Culture is considered a central concept in anthropology.... The word "Culture" derives from a French term, which is turn derives from the Latin "Colere" which means to tend to the earth and grow,or cultivation and nurture.. Noam Chomsky said about Mass Media and gives five filters.... 1) Media Ownership 2) Advertising 3) Media Elite 4) Flack 5) The Comman Enemy 1.

Here I am giving an answer of the given thinking activity on Post-Structuralism or Deconstruction... 1) What do you understand by 'Deconstruction'? (Remember: if you think you understand Deconstruction, you don't. :)).  Deconstruction is term given by Jaques Derrida and he was the most influential philosopher in70s and 80s of last century..His philosophy is the further extension of structuralism and is better called as Post-Structuralism... Deconstruction is a very difficult to understand, because Derrida himself  denied to define what is the actual meaning of Deconstruction.. Deconstruction,is the theory of reading which questions and claims to "Subvert" or "undermine" the assumption that the system of language provides grounds that are adequate to establish the boundaries,the coherence or unity and the determinate meanings of a literary text.. In simple language,we can say that, Deconstruction is to break some ideas, myth or any kind

Fiction and Lies..

Image
Fiction means, Something that is invented or untrue.. or we can say fiction is full of lies or liers too.. "Fiction is the LIE through which we tell the truth".... By  - Albert Camus... Fiction is the classification for any story or setting that is derived from imagination in other words,not based strictly on history or fact...A work of Fiction is an act of creative imagination.. For example_ Milton's Paradise Lost's character "Satan", Whom playing with his motivation. In times of enlightenment and revolution. He became a much less straightforward figure for us to focus our hatred on,than he was perhaps initially intended to be.  Thank You..😊
