Bring out the dramatic significance of Dr.Faustus's last soliloquy in Doctor Faustus . or The death scene of Doctor Faustus.

Bring out the dramatic significance of Dr.Faustus's last soliloquy in Doctor   Faustus .                                 or The death scene of Doctor Faustus. Answer> The unique Elizabethan playwright Christopher Marlowe throws two thunderbolts of soliloquies into the first and last scene of the play in Doctor Faustus . The play reached the highest path of terrific tragedy of Faustus's life in the last soliloquy and called Doctor Faustus's last soliloquy. The play draws to a close with Faustus's final soliloquy in Act-5,Scene-2,which is supposed to mark the last hour of his life . Cities have often commented on how skilfully Marlowe uses rhythm to underline the passage of time in  the play Doctor   Faustus . It is always assumed that the character is talking to himself, but in truth he is addressing the audience gathered before him. In fact a dramatist has not the freedom of a novelist to elaborate or speak for his characters in detail. Hence this is th

Discuss Keats's treatment of life and art in "Ode to a Grecian Urn".

Discuss Keats's treatment of life and art in " Ode to a Grecian Urn ". Answer> The romantic of romantics , the worshipper of beauty,the embodiment of sensuousness,the escapist by nature and hellenistic John Keats in Ode to a Grecian Urn very aptly and masterfully blands the the world of life and the world of art. Most of his poem include the conflict between art and life;ideal and real;the temporal and eternal;the fluid and the flux . Among all his odes  ,Ode  to a Grecian Urn  is surely the purest gem and a poem that adds a colourful feathers to the crown of romantic hero Keats. Keats imagines the identify of the people depicted on the vase and ponders if they are enviable because they are forever young and in love . He contrasts this idea with cold ,stagant ,nature of being frozen in the created scene.    Keats's poem is an Ode,a lyrical style of poetry often written in celebration of a person ,place , thing and an idea. The poet has deeply analysised

Write a note on Joyce's use of epiphany in A Portrait of The Artist As a Young Man.

Write a note on Joyce's use of epiphany in A Portrait of The Artist As a Young Man . Answer> Epiphany denotes 'manifestation 'or ' showing forth' . This term refers to the incarnation of a divine being ,referring to the festival commemorating the manifestation of Christ to the Gentiles, often called the “Magi”, but in   A Portrait of The Artist as A Young Man , James Joyce uses moments of clarity and a recognition of another perspective as "epiphanies." The reader becomes aware of the change in Stephen's character, however momentary, and this drives the plot of the novel. In  Stephen Hero , an earlier version of  A Portrait of The Artist as a Young Man , Stephen is referring to the clock at the Ballast Office, a seemingly insignificant building and clock but capable of making Stephen think because, "all at once I see it and I know at once what it is: epiphany." James Joyce nicely culminates the final choice of Stephen of vocation an

Write a short note on the role of the rustic characters in Hardy's novel"Far from the Madding Crowd"

Write a short note on the role of the rustic characters in Hardy's novel"Far from the Madding Crowd" Answer> In the Thomas Hardy's fourth major success novel Far From The Madding Crowd ,the minor rustics characters can be identified by their general function, their rural occupation,their class, their peculiar humour, colloquial speech and more significantly their values.If in The Mayor of Casterbridge and in Jude the Obscure ,the minor rustics reveal the less alternative aspects of human nature,in Far From The Madding Crowd  ,the rustics characters represents aptly human nature at its most felicious,and a society which has attained harmony between one man and another based on a respect for each individual's humanity and harmony between man and his physical environment character.The rustics like Joseph Poorgress,Jan Coggan, Henry Fray,C ainy Ball,Laban Toll and so on add much humour which later serves as a relief  otherwise serious and sad story.
