B.A Studies W.B.Yeats

W.B.Yeats   William Butler Yeats was born in County Dublin on June 13, 1865. Due to the demands of his career as an artist, Yeats' father moved the family to London when Yeats was still young, but he spent summers in County Sligo, in Western Ireland. When Yeats was fifteen, his family moved back to Dublin, where he attended the Metropolitan School of Art. Yeats' first work was published in the Dublin University Review in 1885. What is generally considered to be his first mature work,  The Wanderings of Oisin and Other Works , came out in 1893. After  The Wanderings of Oisin , which was based on an ancient Irish saga, Yeats never attempted another long poem and confined himself to the lyric form. Yeats grew interested in the occult at an early age. He visited a famous theosophist, Madame Blatavsky, and joined a Theosophy Society. Theosophy holds that all beliefs are a part of a larger spiritual system, and all hold some measure of the truth. Yeats attended many

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.

Pre thinking task on Short stories

The bicentenary of the birth of Edgar Allan Poe, the US short-story writer, poet, editor and literary critic, is celebrated on 18 January. Few writers have equalled Poe in his presentation of fictional mystery and supernatural horror, as in ‘The fall of the house of Usher’ (1840 ). In ‘The pit and the pendulum’ (1842 ) and other tales he combined factual material with the wildest fantasies. Many of his works are written in the dark romantic style. In 1841 he published ‘The murders in the Rue Morgue’, which some consider to be the first detective story. He also contributed to the emerging genre of science fiction. Poe was one of the earliest US practitioners of the short story. Recognition as a major poet came in 1845 with the publication of ‘The raven’. Many of his poems show metrical mastery, haunting resonances and undertones of melancholy. The view that Poe was a depraved, drug-addled madman and alcoholic is derived from slanderous writings of his old enemy, y

It certainly occupies a central position in the discussion of literary Modernism. One of the very first readers – in fact, almost a co-author Ezra Pound considered it ‘the justification of the ‘movement’ , of our modern experiment, since 1900.’ However, not all criticism, was favourable.   I.A.Richards noted in 1926 that Eliot’s poetry, including ‘The Waste Land’, had elicited an unusual amount of irritated or enthusiastic bewilderment among its readers, and that the charge most

S. B. Gardi Department of English MKBU The Fundamental Needs of the Child Every society and every generation uses children for its own purposes. It is significant that today we are beginning to speak of the needs of the child as a basis for his nurture and education. Contrast this emerging conception of the child’s nature and needs with the practices all over the world among so- called civilized people and so-called primitive people. The nurture and education of children are dictated by religious, ethical, and moral ideas, by political and economic requirements by social class lines indeed by an extraordinary variety of ideas and purposes all more or less remote from the child hims
