A Study of Hardy as a Novelist of Protest
No full textThe article is an exploration into the multi-faceted vision of Hardy which had been implanted in his novels so meticulously that every aspect of it reveals a new facet and a new consciousness. This is in line with the modern criticism which is trying to deflect its attention from Hardy’s off- repeated dark philosophy to his new concepts and experiences embedded in his novels. And so in this article we have tried to present him as a novelist of Protest who, in his novels, studies the Victorian society and its evils and protests against them because of their crippling and destructive impact on the individual. So the new picture presented is that of a socio-psychological novelist who studies the orthodox society in order to explore its evil impact on the psychology of the individual. The number of neurotic individuals is increasing. In the absence of freedom man’s mental growth is stunted. He is maimed and made sick. This is because the society makes one very insensible demand – conform or get destroyed. There is no escape from or protection against this demand. The individual has to protest against it till eternity. The society may force him to die. Tess may die; she will be replaced by ’Liza-lu. The hope for the regeneration of the individual is there in this Protest till eternity. It is a protest with hope

Myth and Archetype their application in The Waste Land
No full textMyth and archetype are new additions to the various literary devices in use such as metaphor, imagery and symbol. Myth is very distinct. Besides working as a literary device, it also works as a tool to bring order, as Eliot says, “to the immense panorama of futility and anarchy which is contemporary history”. It does so by being ubiquitous in time and place, by connecting the past, present and future in a chain and by being universal because of its attachment to the complex psychic predispositions inherited by human beings. It is a part of the unconscious psyche of man which projects itself into the conscious by means of, what Jung calls, “motifs”, “primordial images” or “archetypes”. In his poem The Waste Land Eliot has used them profusely in order to bring order in man’s life, order in the theme and content of the poem and also in its styl
Preparing Students to be Creative Entrepreneurs
No full textThe creative sector is a burgeoning global economic powerhouse that is expected to grow rapidly and continuously in the coming years. However, many artistically minded young people struggle to make a living in this field, despite their procurement of academic degrees. In part, this can be attributed to the failure of schools to adequately prepare creative workers for the business world, opting instead to focus on art and design training.
