 "Pehredaar Piya Ki" serial is created by Shashi. Peheredaar piya ki’ Title suggest that pehredaar means protector and we can also found in this serial that Diya marries to Ratan for the sack of his protection The serial Pehredaar Piya Ki on Sony TV shows a 10 year boy married to a woman. who is much older to him.

This show is more controversial in the society because of its story. Storyline of this serial is that the19 year young girl marry with 9 year little boy after his parents death for protect him towards his own evil family member. And also in this serial child marriage happened but they are not promoting it. society doesn't accept this kind of Marriage but media show this kinds of things and Many people request to ban this serial because of theme of child marriage but it is not first time came these kind of serial but many time came to in show for example " Gulal" , " Balika Vadhu".

So we can't say that it is a good serial or bad because of each coin has two side, we can see in the good side o we can say that this serial has want to show another view point and also they want to change the this idea and in the nagative side we can say that this serial child marriage happened and our society cannot be accept this idea because of this is a nagative aspect in our Indian culture.

Existentialism

Respected Sir,

After watching these all videos on existentialism I am sharing my views about it. 


Image result for existentialism
Ans 1...

I am impressed by these thoughts...

Video 1: What is Existentialism?

"Believing in God is a philosophical suicide” and philosopher Camus give argue against that. Existentialism is made up with the tri-angle of Individuality, Passsion, Freedom.

Video 2 : The Myth of Sisyphus: The Absurd Reasoning (Feeling of the Absurd).

The second video is about Albert Camus ' myth of Sisyphus' and discusses the meaning of life. Other thing is that suicide is an individual act and one thing is says that "An elegant suicide is the ultimate work of art".

Video 3: The Myth of Sisyphus: the notion of philosophical suicide

I like one quotation in this video that " Nothing more than feeling"There is no human being than no desire or in particular the human nostalgia to be satisfied these is where we get to philosophy called suicide. The notion of philosophical suicide was what makes me fall in love with.

Video 4 : Dadaism, Nihilism and Existentialism

Dadaism and Nihilism has nothing to do with each other both are fed up with everyday life and it's arbitrary values. Dadaism and Nihilism both are focus on free from everything.

Video 5 : Existentialism - a gloomy philosophy

why Existentialism thought of as a gloomy philosophy because notions such as anxiety, despair, and absurdity never seem to leave the arena of argument.

Video 6: Existentialism and Nihilism: Is it one and the same?

Nietzsche says existentialism against Nihilism. Existentialism and Nihilism is different from each other because existentialism is opposed to Nihilism.

Video 7: Let us introduce Existentialism again!

According to existentialist thinker and philosopher Existentialism is not philosophical system but it is probably best classified a philosophical movement. Here, Satre's says " Existence precedes essence"

Video 8: Explain like I'm Five: Existentialism and Nietzsche:

Nietzsche says there is no morality that governs you .You make your own rules.and do not follow made up rules that means Existentialism

Video 9: Why I like Existentialism? Eric Dodson

Existentialism is way of life and understand life deeply Existentialism is says about what I am. Eric Dodson says that it is honest ,show reality of life and rebellion which appeals his mind,heart and soul.

Video 10: Let us sum up: From Essentialism to Existentialism

Aristotle and plato give idea that "Existence precedes essence" they believe that our essences exist in us before we're even born. Essentialism give meaning and existentialism is nothingness, meaningless.

Ans 2... I like first video. Because it has given three key words, individuality, passions and freedom . and also I would like to video 8 is my favorite one because of this video explains the tuff idea of existentialism in a simple and clear way.

Ans 3...After watching this video ,i got the idea about existentialism very well . and we can improve our listing skill. Thank you...

Witing for Godot

Here I am giving my interpretations about points of waiting for Godot


Image result for waiting for Godot





1) · What connection do you see in the setting (“A country road. A tree.Evening.”) of the play and these paintings?

Ans. The setting of the play " A country road, A tree, Evening" and this painting both are the Similar. Because we can find many similarity like that In painting also we can see trees and two persons . So we can see these many similarities in both.The title of the painting is 'Longing' but Beckett uses 'Waiting' here.

2) The tree is the only important ‘thing’ in the setting. What is the importance of tree in both acts? Why does Beckett grow a few leaves in Act II on the barren tree -The tree has four or five leaves - ?

Ans. Tree is the important symbol in both the acts. In the first act tree is barren, so it suggests of world war and In the second act we find some leaves I think four and five leaves on the tree, it suggests hope.

3) · In both Acts, evening falls into night and moon rises. How would you like to interpret this ‘coming of night and moon’ when actually they are waiting for Godot?

Ans. Night signifies ‘end’. 'coming of night and moon rises' it is showing time passing very speedily but their hope doesn't die . and second thing we write that nature never wait for anything it's goes on and on but in this play they both are waiting for Godot but in this play no any changes happening.


4) · The director feels the setting with some debris. Can you read any meaning in the contours of debris in the setting of the play?

Ans. Debris means destroyed or broken into pieces. it is connect with second world war.

5) · The play begins with the dialogue “Nothing to be done”. How does the theme of ‘nothingness’ recurs in the play?

Ans. The play begins with the dialogue "Nothing to be done".and also Estragon speaks that “Nothing happens, nobody comes, nobody goes, and it’s awful!”. Nothingness is main theme of this play and we can see that in this play these all characters they are doing insignificant activities meaninglessly.

6) · Do you agree: “The play (Waiting for Godot), we agreed, was a positive play, not negative, not pessimistic. As I saw it, with my blood and skin and eyes, the philosophy is: 'No matter what— atom bombs, hydrogen bombs, anything—life goes on. You can kill yourself, but you can't kill life." (E.G. Marshal who played Vladimir in original Broadway production 1950s)?

Ans. Yes, I agree that this play is positive. We can understand the reality of our life that we doesn't get everything but Somehow same way in this play they both are not meet to Godot but they enjoy his life so we can say that In this play just represent the hope.

7) · How are the props like hat and boots used in the play? What is the symbolical significance of these props?

Ans. Hat and Boots are represented symbolically in the play. Hat represents the intellectual thinking and Boots represent thinking without logic and we can also compare with two characters that Vladimir plays with hat and think intellectually and logically . and Estragon plays with boot, so he Is careless.

8) · Which of the following sequence you liked the most..

Ans. I like the conversation of Vladimir with the boy.

Thank you...

Oneness of Literature



                                     Oneness of literature 


Respected Sir 

 
In the essay " Tradition and individual talent" T.S.Eliot talked about pastness of past and its relevance with present and also talks about the tradition, means not the traditional but opposite to traditional means the historical sense and we know that history is much important and we learn many things in this.

Northrope Frye talks about the oneness and he say that all literature are same at the one place. And we can also say that All literature are connected with each other . and we can find this idea
In This poem "Waste Land" by T.S.Eliot we can see that in this poem how T S Eliot used to various myths as well as historical figure and how he connected past history with the present.

So we can say that literature has some kind of oneness.

Thank you...

Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling.

Hello readers,

This blog is my classroom activity on Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling. 


To show Worksheet of given task Click Here


Webquest Worksheet


Here is my Rubric evaluation form .


 












" Harry Potter" is a fantasy novel written by British author J.K.Rowling. This is story of the young wizard Harry and his struggle against the villain Lord Voldemort. Here we find three major characters are

Harry Potter
Hermione
Ron




there and they all students of Hogwards.




Book series of Harry Potter:

(1) Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
(2) Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secret
(3) Harry potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban
(4) Harry Potter and the Goblet of fire
(5) Harry Potter and the order of the Phonix
(6) Harry Potter and Half blood prince 

(7) Harry potter and Deathly Hellows


Feminist reading of Harmione’s character in Harry Potter: 
 How do the character portrayal of Harmione and other female  characters support feminist discourse?


What is Feminism?


          Feminism is simply the quest for the equality of the sexes, yet it provokes strong reactions. Discover the history of the term and find out how the WLM developed and tackled some of the most fundamental feminist questions, such as what it means to be a woman.

          Feminism is a range of political movements, ideologies, and social movements that share a common goal: to define, establish, and achieve political, economic, personal, and social equality of sexes.


Feminist reading of Hermione's character:


                      In this novel we find  feminist idea  through character Hermione Granger. Hermione one of the main character She was very strong character , reflects as a independent and intellectual girl rather than other two characters, Harry and Ron. She was good student and she capture thing very quickly . She belong to the 'Muggle-Blood', so she got insulted so many times by Melfoy.








2). Discourse on the purity of Blood and Harry Potter: How do the novels play with the thesis of pure blood (Master Race) giving an anti-thesis by belonging protagonists to half-blood / Mud-blood? What sort of synthesis is sought in this discourse in Harry Potter series?

According to Rowling, Love and Death both are major theme in the book She once stated, "My books are largely about death. They open with the death of Harry's parents. There is Voldemort's obsession with conquering death and his quest for immortality at any price, the goal of anyone with magic. I so understand why Voldemort wants to conquer death. We're all frightened of it."
Throughout the series, it becomes clear that death is not something to fear, but "life's next big adventure".



 The theme of Love and Death: How does Harry Potter make use of age old theme of Love of the dead as well as living as protecting armour? How does Harry Potter deal with the concept of Death as something inevitable?
  
 According to Rowling, Love and Death both are major theme in the book She once stated, "My books are largely about death". They open with the death of Harry's parents.

We're all frightened of it."
Throughout the series, it becomes clear that death is not something to fear, but "life's next big adventure".

J K Rowling's chosen spokespersons, Professor Dumbledore , impresses upon Harry that his “ability to love” is “the only protection that can possibly work against the lure of power like Voldemort’s.”


This theme will clearly form an important element in the final book. Harry has been saved from the start by love, the love of his mother (also, be it noted, with dark red hair, just like Ginny). Dumbledore has told him several times of the power of love .



 Discourse on the purity of Blood and Harry Potter: How do the novels play with the thesis of pure blood (Master Race) giving an anti-thesis by belonging protagonists to half-blood / Mud-blood? What sort of synthesis is sought in this discourse in Harry Potter series?


The term 'pure-blood' refers to a family or individual without Muggle (non-magic) blood. The concept is generally associated with Salazar Slytherin, one of the four founders of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, whose aversion to teaching anybody of Muggle parentage eventually led to a breach with his three fellow founders, and his resignation from the school.
Concept of purity of blood  is present in the Harry Potter.

Three concept here


1  Pure Blood 

2 Half Blood

3. Mud Blood


Harry Potter and Hermione Granger are  Mud -blood. Ron Weasley is a pure blood. Draco Malfoy is also pure blood. Where as evil Voldemort is Mud Blood but craving for pure blood.
important thing is that they are equally or sometimes more powerful in magic than Pure blood. so, definitely it leads us to think that what should be criteria to judge the people - Race/ blood or merit?.
At the same time we have to keep in mind that Rowling is not despising Pure blood. Voldemort is evil and he is also mud blood. if writer make Voldemort as a pure blood, then definitely it is problematic.Witches and wizards consider themselves superior than non-magic people or non-human species like elves and giants. This act again shows racism working within the magical world.
