Online discussion on Oneness of literature

Literature is a term used to describe written and sometimes spoken material. Derived from the Latin word literature meaning "writing formed with letters", literature most commonly refers to works of the creative imagination, including poetry, drama, fiction, nonfiction and in some instances, journalism and song.

      Literature is like a flowing river. It has many way to flow but its root is one. Hence, as per many theorist like T. S. Eliot, Northrop Fry etc, that the structure of literature are somewhat connected with each other like similar in symbols, signs, structure, etc. Northrop Fry in his theory of Archetypal criticism based on the whole idea that whole of literature has oneness of its existence. All literature shares common DNA or Skeleton. While, T. S.

Hence, he said that poet should know the pastness of the past.

The Waste Land:-



     In The Waste Land it is about childhood memory the hidden meaning is sexual perversion. The statement, "in the mountains, there you feel free" has the memory of the fear become a sort of nostalgia for the adult who acknowledges the fear but recognizes it has a childish thing.

The Pinteresque features of The Birthday Party

The Pinteresque features of The Birthday Party In roduction:- Two of the notable facts about Harold Pinter were, first , that he was a Jew, born of Jewish parents, and , second, that he worked as an actor for some time before he became a playwright. Pinter was born on the 10 th October, 1930 in   Hackney , a London borough. By the time of his birth the Jewish population of North London had risen from about 5000 in 1880 to about 40,000. The North London Jewry was known for its solid middle class respectability and religious conformity. In view of the economic insecurity which the family felt, Pinter’s father worked very hard, working twelve hours a day, making clothes. Eventually, however the old man lost his business and had to work for somebody else. Pinter never forgot this situation in his early life – the combination of calm and unrest beauty and ugliness; and these qualities permeate his work. Personal history had deeply influenced all Pinter’s writing.
