Theory of Structuralism

   * Being a structuralist critic, how would you analyse literary text or TV serial or Film? You can select any image or TV serial or film or literary text or advertisement. Apply structuralist method.  
        
The novelty of Literature is surprizing, curiosity in other words what is important in any narration , when we read literature? This is that what we expect that doesn't happen but somthing else happen. Thus, this all about narration and decription is calls Structuralism. It is focus on structure, symbol and design.
Gerard Genette writes an essay ' Structuralism and Literary Criticism' in this essay he disscused the idea of Structuralism, what Strcturalist crtitics do and believes.
Here is the link of blog from this you can read more on it.

So, here i'm going to apply this idea of
Structuralism in this advertisememt
Of Samsung service.
                    

This is the add of Samsung Service.
Analysis of this add from the views of Structuralism.
There is the maker of  advertisement uses this basic theme that somebody who wants do something good or going to lend a hand to needy, who always find difficulites in his way and at last reach to aim. Here the same idea applies but i want to discuss some symbols .

Here in this both the images we can find that traveller passing throgh the troubles. Sheeps are also indicates the same thing in add. This is the same theme we can find in many movies and novels also like in Bajarangi bhaijan, Kahani, bhag milkha bhag in all this protogonist passing throgh many problems and ultimately meet to the aim.
This scene is symbol of dying day, it means before the end of day (before the deadline one should reach at destination.) and when Service Man reach at Addressed point we can see the light of van highlighted by   camera it shows that he comes as lamp in darkness. 

Both are the light 1.sun 2.headlight of van but it used as paradox.

Here, this scene shows the image of French Educator Louis Braille, who is inventor of system of reading and writting for blind people the same way here the service man had been seen us as Louis Braille who is only hope of this blind girl.

If we minuetly observe the expression of Service man we can see the many changes because when he found that the girl who eagerly waiting for TV show at 7pm. She is blind , we can see shockness on his face and at last when he saw the all blind childrens are how happily enjoying and that's the way when Servicecman Returning we can see the smile of triumph on his face.

Thus we can come to conclusion that narratolgy of this advertisement is predictive but uses of symols makes it more polysemy.

● Significance of ' FIRE ' and ' ICE ' in the both poems : 1) Fire and Ice by Robert Frost and 2) Ice and Fire by Edmund Spenser.


Here by reading both the poem we can say that rejection of authorical intention and advocacy of polysamy lead us towards the various differnt meaning of the poem. Latent meaning of words creats differnt image of same word as here both the poet take same words Ice And Fire but hidden meaning of it and how they connect with it diffrent kinds of metaphor is total oppsite.

Book Review of Kite Runner

Khaled Hosseini is an Afghan born American novelist and physician and he is famous for his three novels - Thousands Splendid Suns - And the Moutains Elchoed - The Kite Runner Recently I completed the Kite Runner, before the reading of Kite Runner, I don't know the defination or meaning of pain.. Pain of redemption... Pain of love in friendship... Pain for survival and better life... Is wonderfully captured by Khaled Hosseini. Begining is quite different than end, and in other words colors of fertility dried up in end. Author narrates about his own country Afghanistan , the land of Pashtuns . Pashtuns are the group of people they knows themselves as 'Pure & True Afghans'. They believe that flat nose people means other group of people which is known as Hazara are pollutes Afghans. Though in heart of Afghanistan Hope, Struggle, Chaos and Pride for what they have. In the books there is many lines through that we can understand or see boundries of orthodoxy...
