    It seems logical to discuss firstly what it is not hidden in the text; all the information a simple reader can gather from the storyline. Thus, what follows is merely an approach and interpretation of the two histories that we have studied in this module ‘The Plays of Shakespeare’, Henry V and Julius Caesar (English and Roman histories respectively).…

    Wordsworth in his “Prelude” has presented a timeless piece of art, transfixed for eternities to come. He has made his words immortal by his imagination that gives the truth, which according to Keats is beauty. He equates beauty and truth through his imagination. This ode is a purely aesthetic rendition to signify the supremacy and impermanence of art over nature. Through his imagination, he not only enlivens the urn but makes it immortal through his poetry. Known for his non-political stance, and pure romanticism he captures the pleasures and pains of human passion and suffering in his works via his imagination. The paper is an attempt to show how Wordsworth as a true romantic, had created a piece of art with the help of his imagination and had made it immortal for generations to come. The paper focuses on Wordsworth’s hypocrisy and his concept of who should be a poet.…

    Growth of Novel

    • 2275 Words

    It was immediately after 1740 that the English novel suddenly arose from the lower forms and came to embody, as no other literary form did, the spirit of the age. The glorious work of Richardson and Fielding was followed by that of the two other major novelists of the eighteenth century, namely, Smollett and Sterne. Soon the whole English literary air was thick with a staggeringly vast number of novels produced by a host of writers. Let us consider the important reasons for the rise of the novel in the eighteenth century, as also, by implication, for its spectacular popularity.…

Attention will be paid not only to influential writers and movements, but to themes such as the influence of Greek mythology, religion, politics, and the rôle of Ireland. Some writers, poets and playwrights considered are Langland, Chaucer, Malory, Marlowe, Shakespeare, Pope, Swift, Wordsworth, Keats, Byron and Dickens. I apologise to the many superb but deceased writers whom I cannot include in this all too brief summary, and even to those whom I have included, for treating them somewhat summarily.…
