Robert Frost is an American poet and he is known for his realistic depiction of rural life. Frost honored frequently during his lifetime, receiving four Pulitzer prizes for poetry. He became one of America's  rare public literary figures, almost an artistic institution.           Poem- Stopping by woods on a snowy evening Whose woods these are I think I know.    His house is in the village though;    He will not see me stopping here    To watch his woods fill up with snow.    My little horse must think it queer    To stop without a farmhouse near    Between the woods and frozen lake    The darkest evening of the year.    He gives his harness bells a shake    To ask if there is some mistake.    The only other sound’s the sweep    Of easy wind and downy flake.    The woods are lovely, dark and deep,    But I have promises to keep,    And miles to go before I sleep,    And miles to go before I sleep. - The Rhyme scheme is AABA BBCB CCDC DDDD My analysis

As an escape from the harsh realities that emerged in the aftermath of the wars, many modernist poets use myths in their poetry. Apart from this mainstream discourse on modernism, it is imperative to identify its underbelly. It was during the same time that women and working classes started demanding more rights. It is also the period during which many nationalist movements began in the colonies. The universalisation of human suffering that one finds in mod

Here, I answered the questions of thinking activity. I'm sharing the link of my Sir's blog in which he asked questions... http://dilipbarad.blogspot.com/2014/10/presentations-on-ts-eliots-waste-land.html?m=1 THE WASTELAND By T.S.Eliot it shows the ruined image of society. The barreness of life and growth of only materialism leads toward the meaninglessness of life. 1) What are your views on the following image after reading 'The Waste Land'? Do you think that Eliot is regressive as compared to Nietzche's views? or Has Eliot achieved universality of thought by recalling mytho-historical answer to the contemporary malaise? Eliot stands for Regressive, backward looking as it tries to find answers of contemporary malaise in Upanishad, Buddhism and Christianity. On the other side Nietzche stands for progressvie and forward looking, in giving solution to the problem of contemporary crises in faith and self. In compared to Neitzche's thought, yes Eliot is

Hello my Dear friends here i wanna express my views on last visit of our Maharaja Krishnkumarsinhji univesity' Maharaja Krishnkumarsinhji univesity s central library. First but bitter experience as leader of library committee in Department Of English. Library is always fascinating place for me, books always attract me. When sir declared my name as leader of our library, i feel happy but from the experiences of few days, i came to know that to be a good leader is not an easy task.

This bitter experiance happens because i have greater expectations from you all but u failed me and proved again that don't expect anything from anyone but at this post gratuation level it is not my fault to expect a decent behaviour b

Mordern Times has been passed for universal exhibition As A.C.Ward says in Morden Literature, 'First fifty years of twentieth century the human race moved through a remarkable series of upheavals than during perhaps fifty generation in the past' It means growth of physical world and material progress can seen as Scientific revolution. Movie Morden Times is like pages of history, shows us real face of America. Ironically film opens with a note that  a story about the industry, individual initiative and the crusade of humanity in the pursuit of happiness”, and immediately after the scene of sheeps turn into workers emerging from a subway. Without any dialogue , a mum draws the perfact picture of last man's condition of that era. Clock is also symbol of industrilization that man is in under control of time, we can see in movie that charlie is working constalntly in rhythm for hours, and machine of automatic feeding is also symbol of saving time, that one can take lunch w
