Online Discussion
Jorge Mario Pedro Vargas Llosa, he is commonly known as Mario Vargas Llosa.. He is a Peruvian writer, politician, journalist, essayist and college professor. Vargas Llosa 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..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."
"If you are killed because you are a writer, that's the maximum expression of respect, you know".
- Mario Vargas Llosa
Mario Vargas Llosa's style encompasses historical material as well as his own personal experiences;For example, in his first novel, 'The Time of the Hero': his own experiences at the Leoncio Prado military school informed his depiction of the corrupt social institution which mocked the moral standards it was supposed to uphold.Furthermore, the corruption of the book's school is a reflection of the corruption of Peruvian society at the time the novel was written.Vargas Llosa frequently uses his writing to challenge the inadequacies of society, such as demoralization and oppression by those in political power towards those who challenge this power. One of the main themes he has explored in his writing is the individual's struggle for freedom within an oppressive reality...
In his recent interview Llosa shared many ideas related to literary work,but, I liked three ideas given by him.
1) Idea on Feminism
2) Ideas & Images
#Here Llosa gave an idea on feminism.. He gave an example of feminists attacked in Nabokov's "Lolita", it is the best novel of 20th century. In this novel feminist attacked about male characters. We can see this stupidity destroy the charm of literature. The idea about good and evil in literature is good because literature is not perfect without evil character.If everything is perfect and good in literature then it is not more attractive for readers.. Sometime over criticism destroyed the charm of literature.
#In this points Llosa said that nowadays people give more importance to image for expressing ideas,which is harmful... Because, images are fake.. So express the ideas rather than more use of image..
Thank You...
