Jane Austen(17751817) Pride and Prejudice
It is the story of a young girl who rejects an
offer of marriage because the young nobleman who
makes it has been rude to her family. It is a
very plot but around it the authoress has woven
vivid pictures or the everyday life of simple
country society. Purpose ask the students to
read novels of the time that they clearly get
aware of it. Like the time economy, history and
persons. Also a lot of incidents which are
related to them. Only on the base if through
understanding the history with regards to
economic, military and even climatic change or
development can we fully understand the hero or
the heroing of the literatural world.

present time if the time of our own culture. Like

questions should be raised always in the mind.

economic and military and industrial
development. Assignment A essay on Tess of
the DUrbervilles, Jane Eyre, Pride and
Prejudice.

Jane Austen completed six novels, Northanger
Abbey, Persuasion, Sense and Sensibility, Pride
and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, and Emma. Her
novels were published anonymously owing to the
prejudice prevailing at the time concerning the
writing of novels by a lady. Living a quiet
life in the countryside, she kept her eyes
steadily upon the people and incidents about
herm, and wrote the small part of the world she
lived in.
7
Pride and Prejudice has been the most widely
read among them. Austen began to write it when
she was 21.But the manuscript went begging for
16 years at the doors of publishers before it was
published in 1813.It is the story of a young girl
who rejected an offer of marriage because the
young nobleman who makes it has been rude to her
family. It is a very thin plot, but around it the
authoress has woven vivid pictures if the
everyday life of simple country society.
Through description id the daily talks and doings
of the young men and the women. Austen paints
their characters. She is at her best in writing
about young girls, because she understood them
astonishingly well.

Victorian Poetry ?????????
16
Mathew Arnold (18221888)
  • Inherits a critical tradition from Samuel Johnson
    and Samuel Taylor Coleridge
  • Unlike Coleridge, he acknowledges his debt to
    German philosophers
  • A secular writer, he still believes strongly in
    absolutes -- that we can discern, for instance,
    what is the best that is known and thought in
    the world
  • He says criticism can attain any real authority
    by being absolutely and entirely independent of
    sects and parties (1578)

17
Dover Beach
  • Ah, love, let us be true
  • To one another! for the world, which seems
  • To lie before us like a land of dreams,
  • So various, so beautiful, so new,
  • Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,
  • Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain
  • And we are here as on a darkling plain
  • Swept with confused alarms of struggle and
    flight,
  • Where ignorant armies clash by night.

Alfred, Lord Tennyson, (1809-1892)
  • Prosody paramount to him his tone painting in
    verse like Debussys in music (Compare Lady of
    Shalott, last stanza of Part One (p.1142) to
    first stanza, Part Four (p. 1145)
  • (Compare Loreena McKennitts folk version of
    Lady of Shalott)
  • Stephen Dedalus in Joyces Portrait of the Artist
    exclaims Tennyson a poet! Why, hes only a
    rhymester!

20
Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806-1861)
  • She inherited a tradition
  • Felicia Hemans (the best-selling poet of the
    Romantic period)
  • Charlotte Smith (whose success with the sonnet
    form made it a favorite among later writers)

21
Robert Browning, (1812-1889)
  • His most significant contribution to English
    poetry the verse form called Dramatic Monologue
  • His epic, The Ring and the Book, is profoundly
    relativistic -- the same story told repeatedly
    from multiple, mutually-exclusive perspectives
  • His exploration of individual voices vastly
    expanded the language available to poets.

22
Robert Browning(18121889) Meeting At Night
Browning began his literary career as an ardent
follower or Shelly. Late he managed to avoid the
subjective of Shelley and created his own
objective way of writing. His earliest
works included Pauline(1833) his first poem
Paracelsus
23
Oscar Wilde(1854 ---1900) Preface to the
picture of Dorian Gray Oscar Wilde ,a dramatist,
poet, novelist and essayist was born in Dublin,
Ireland. IN 1879, he settled in London and soon
won a reputation both as a writer and as a
spokesman Or the school of Art for Arts Sake.
He soon became the leader of the Aesthetic
Movement. Vera----- a play The Picture of Dorian
Gray
24
James Joyce 1882-1941 The psychoanalytic method
of Sigmuid Freud (1856-1939) and intuitive and
semi-mystical philosophy of Henri Bergson
(1859-1941) also contributed to both the form and
content of stream of consciousness
fiction. Stream of consciousness , which presents
the (hoight) of character in the random,
seemingly unorganized fashion in which the
thinking process occurs, has the following
characteristics.
25
Although James Joyce did not invent to
technique of Stream of consciousness fiction, no
other writer in England used it so systematically
or such profound effect. He worked tirelessly to
perfect this technique through careful use of
words, to convey precisely and subtly to the
reader what was the inner, mental state of his
characters. Ulysesses (1922-) is generally
acknowledge to be his master piece and a typical
example of stream of consciousness technique.
This novel deals with the events of one day in
Dublin in June, 1904
