Effects of “Marabar Caves” on modern man.
Throughout the years, human beings have developed new movements and ideas with the effects of wars, technological developments and mass changes. The beginning of modernism, which is the movement of the 20th century, is a period in which people question their place and purpose the most and that essential changes take place. Having become acquainted with colonization, capitalism, the theory of evolution, Einstein's theory of relativity and many other new concepts, mankind lost his purpose and faith with the effects of the Great War and atomic bomb. As a result of all this, man as an emotional being became a non-spiritual being. The rationality and aimlessness of modern man, especially western man, caused psychological problems and feeling lonely. Spiritual loneliness, alienation, feeling of emptiness and becoming indifference to surroundings are the basic problems of modern men. Although I am a person who believes in the power of knowledge, I can't ignore the spiritual positive effects of religions on people. On the other part of the world, people living in a way that depends on their traditions, live more moderately and conscientiously than England or other western countries. It is possible to say that the writers and poets of this period touched upon the existential crisis of modern men. In the A passage to India, besides the themes of racism and colonization, the themes of loneliness and spiritual collapse of the modern man are discussed. Marabar Caves is an excellent setting added to the novel by E. M. Forster to reflect these inner conflicts of man. Thinking as a reflection of human nature's incomprehensible sides, Caves' mysterious atmosphere makes them more complex to analyze.
First of all, in the beginning of the novel, Mrs. Moore and Adela are planning to see
Comparison of The Knight’s Tale and The Miller’s Tale in Canterbury TalesGeçmiş
Medieval English Literature period was a period that included themes such as love, chivalry, betrayal, deception and many elements such as comic and tragic elements, social issues, and the dominance of religion. While writing Canterbury Tales, the most important work of medieval literature, Chaucer aimed to transfer different classes of society to the reader and to make criticisms on some points. The aim of this essay is to examine the first two of the tales told in Canterbury Tales in terms of themes, characters, narrators, plots and most importantly their genres. Firstly, I will talk about the narrators of the two tales and therefore the social class differences of their characters. I will then analyze the two tales from the perspective of Aristotle in terms of elements of comedy and tragedy, and finally, I will make comparisons by dealing with the plot and the themes used in both.
There are clearly noticeable differences between characters and therewithal between narrators. There is a certain class difference between The Miller and The Knight; one is from lower and the other one is from upper class. Since they reflect separate classes in society, they are different in terms of physical appearance, humors, manners and behaviors. For instance The Miller’s physical appearance is described as: “His berd as any sowe or fox was reed”(554th line, General Prologue) With the redness in physical appearance we have bad expression about The Miller but The Knight is described in the very beginning of his description as: “To riden out, he loved chivalrie, - Trouthe and honour, fredom and curteisie.” (45th, 46th lines, General Prologue) We remember that The Miller intervenes and takes some other characters’ turn. It is possible to say that there is a reason for The Miller’s
Reflections of social issues of modern people in the play “A Doll's House”Deneme
It seems that just surviving and sleeping with a full stomach are not the main problems of developed civilizations since the first formations of societies. ‘Surviving in a good condition’ is the key for modern women and men and death is mostly ignored or perceived as an end from a scientific point of view. Social status, economic level of individuals or some characteristics of modern era can provide people advantages or cause to have disadvantages in society. We can see some of these modern issues' reflections in 20th century art, literature and especially in drama. A Doll's House is one of the examples in which modern times' social issues are reflected. Henrik Ibsen, the playwright aimed to explain these problems to the audience through characters. Married couples, alone women and men are all struggling with money issues, loneliness and especially sexism in the play. Of course, these social issues are nothing compared to war, famine and natural disasters. However, these issues may appear as factors that deeply affect the mental health and psychological state of individuals that keep society alive.
Since the Lydians, money has always been the determinant of social roles. In modern age, we experienced industrialization, technological developments and capitalism. Consequently, money started to control everything including women and men’s relationships. At the very beginning of the play, we see that how money determines men's dominant role. Torvald is the one who has financial power in the family. We can see the clear social difference between Nora and her husband by Torvald’s discourses; “What is this! Is my little squirrel out of temper? - (Taking out his purse.) Nora, what do you think I have got here?”(p.3) He can make Nora happy just by giving money. Also Torvald
