    This thesis is submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in English, 2015.Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (page 59-62).The thesis aims to follow the evolution of the figure of the Tragic Hero from the ancient Greek age up to the modern age. This is done in the light of Aristotle, Friedrich Nietzsche and Arthur Miller’s concept of the Tragic Hero. The objective is to show how the tragic hero has been redefined throughout history and transformed into a modern day tragic hero who is much different than what was originally defined by Aristotle. My aim is to analyze the diversity of the tragic conception, its continuity and major deviations from the classical order to the modern times. To examine the diversity of tragic hero over time this paper looked at five plays, Oedipus Rex (430 B.C) by Sophocles from the classical time period, Doctor Faustus (1604) by Christopher Marlowe from the 16th century, Hamlet (1603) by William Shakespeare from the renaissance period, Death of a Salesman (1949) by Arthur Miller and Desire Under The Elms (1924) by Eugene O’Neill from the 20th century. The thesis comprises of five chapters where the first chapter deals with the classical concept of tragic hero by including the Aristotelian concept dealt with in Poetics. This chapter discusses how Sophocles, placed his tragic hero in the context of the fundamental Greek concepts of religion, law, crime and punishment. The second chapter deals with the renaissance concept of a tragic hero portrayed by Christopher Marlowe and William Shakespeare, which marks a subtle yet significant difference from the Aristotelian form. The third chapter deals with the modern concept of a tragic hero which broke away from the traditional picture of a tragic hero and highlighted the shift from God to Man.Mahbuba RahmanB.A. in Englis

    POTENTIAL APPLICATION OF VETIVER GRASS FOR SUSTAINABLE ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT IN HILL TRACTS REGION OF BANGLADESH

    A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Agriculture, Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTERS OF SCIENCE IN AGROFORESTRY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCELandslide is one of the major obstacles in the hill tract region in many parts of the world, especially in developing nations like Bangladesh. The cost of protecting landslide is high, and the national budget for such works is never sufficient. For this reason, we need to find out the best natural solutions for this problem. We think vetiver grass has the ability to protect landslide. The study aims to identify vetiver grass management and sustainable use of it to protect against natural disasters in the hill tract region. The research field data were collected at six different areas of the hill tracts region under Chattogram and Cox’s Bazar district. Data were collected from 140 randomly selected people using structured questionnaires. The study results come out that vetiver grass is a very easy to establish, inexpensive, low maintenance, and incredibly efficient means of natural disaster reduction

    Climate Change, Resilience, and Adaptation in Bangladesh

    Climate change has become a global concern, especially since the international forums’ urge to take immediate collaborative actions to meet the challenges of climate change and its effects. Climate change instigates to increase frequency and severity of disasters with adverse impacts on humans, natural ecosystem and quality of human survival. Bangladesh is recognized by the world communities as one of the most vulnerable countries susceptible to global warming, climate change and disasters. Some of the impacts of climate change on agriculture based country have already been observed: irregular monsoon and very little rainfall in dry period; increased frequency, intensity and recurrence of floods, cyclones; crop damage due to flash floods and monsoon floods; crop failure due to drought; salinity intrusion along the coast leading to redundancy of prevailing crop practices. The most alarming prediction about the impacts of climate change in Bangladesh is that more than 25 million people will become climate refugees and food insecure only due to sea level rise in the coming decades. Climate induced disasters displace millions of people. Human health is also at risk from growing incidence of diseases linked to rising temperatures and rainfall variability. Increasingly saline drinking water is resulting acute health hazards. Climate induced disasters affect all people: children, women and men. However, in a gendered culture and economics women and girls face number of problems due to their gender identity. Government of Bangladesh and her people have been taking many initiatives and adaptive measures for reducing the adverse impacts of climate change. However, addressing climate change issues is becoming challenging due to its multifaceted and multilayered governance. Lack of integration in taking initiatives combining climate change and disaster related crises. Urgent attention at local and international levels is a prerequisite in this regard.School of Environment and Natural ResourcesSustainable and Resilient Economy InitiativeInstitute for Population ResearchEnvironmental Policy InitiativeGlobal Water Institute, and the School of Earth Science
