Responce on To The Light House


Resected Sir,
Here below is my response on To The Light House by Virginia Woolf.
1)To The Light House by Virginia Woolf has a good & interesting content or impact to present. Mostly time demands something from us but Virginia Woolf herself expected something from her time.rigidity of Victorian time came in her life as she was born on that time but as a modernist writer she thrown out that at all & her that mentality may continued in her this present work also where she focused on the very sentimental issue of our life-Matter of each other's bonding & way of dealing with them.apart from some restrictions of thinking there was also flow of conscious mentality from where may be Woolf got ideas to speak on the inner side of human relationships.
The technique of Stream Of Consciousness very well narrated by Woolf here.may be from her own life experiences she put some glimpse in the present work also. Minds of human beings & ways to look at them is mainly tries to point out here.to highlight the personality of her character she may be used such techniques & it even works with the moving actions of the novel where being a female she can highlighted her other female characters & give us chance to think on them individually.
2)To The Light House if we tries to see & observes then it has various ways,out of the content with using our mentality what we understand is matter here. But out of two point on Mrs. Ramsey's character about the novel's consideration as her Tribute or Critique then i would go for the second where Mrs. Ramsey from very initial part of the novel comes as the worker of home where she serves her family & tries till the end to maintain relationships but behind that whatever hidden is Woolf tries to reflect here.apart from such responsibilities one must has to think about self identity.
"This is my house & I am controller."
Such dialogue from Mrs. Ramsey's side shows her self desire to served her husband & other family member instead of doing forcefully to pampered anyone.
Lily Briscoe tries to question or remove the illusion that Mrs. Ramsey possesses throughout her life.
Through her deeds & innocent nature may be she remains in the minds of others but except that she may be considered as the mouthpiece of Woolf herself. Lily remains as a supportive character of Mrs.Ramsey where she highlighted the personality of Mrs. Ramsey & tries to produce sounds in her.
So i think it all should be for Critique Mrs.Ramsey's character with adaption of Woolf's personal life experiences.Tribute can be there if Mrs. Ramsey can get or think some space to present her voice till the end of the life except preferred to remain ideal woman only


3)Mrs.Ramsey & Lily Briscoe both stands or represents for the symbol of The Light House.
Light House that shows or suggests path or direction to go exact or proper destination signifies here two prominent character of the novel.
Mrs. Ramsey who served her family & other human relationships throughout her life without thinking about her self identity. She lightened her family during her presence but when she died it reflected something different that may change her role now where she very proudly & honestly had considered as The Bridge to connect the family members same Mrs. Ramsey being Over Dose of her family members under the light of her care & innocent,selfless presence. Yet at some how she remains live in the mind of her close members through her such incredible dedication for them also.
Lily Briscoe another character who can also considered symbolically as The Light House here for Mrs. Ramsay where she herself indirectly confessed something that she felt during her life only & she attempted to keep away Mrs. Ramsey to be the same victim of that.
"I Love Loneliness."(Lily Briscoe)
"I Fear Loneliness."(Mrs.Ramsey)
Above mentioned dialogues shows the distance of thinking in both & Woolf through the character of Lily tries to decrease this & make aware at last to Mrs. Ramsey for her rights & just for self.
4)I think words can lasts in our mind than the visual images because words that we read are better reflection than the images or scenes that we generally see during watching the movies as we look at the words first & then we read it & then we tries to interpret it with using our possible skills & mentality.so here also i would say that the film adaption of the novel directed by Cain Gergee has less impact to carry or left than the literary work itself.
Literary art also gives us scope to think something & this thinking always leads us to develop or increase our level of understanding. No doubt screening has also the same power & being a part of digital time i am not condemning it but i think it has some limitations in compare to the literary art or text such as it may not give everyone scope to think rapidly as scenes are going on,by reversing also it may loss its charm to convey something & it that's why only can be possible through reading the text.
To focus on the present work To The Light House i would say that i also enjoyed the screening but i would give preference to the text as i personally feel the joy of reading the text that gives me more better chance & scope to open up the windows of thinking outside as well as inner side of the human world in context of human relationships with various perspectives.
Thank You.

Movie review on Midnight's Children

Here is My review on The Movie 'Midnight's Children':-
For pleasure,for passing time if we are enjoining movies, so it's a sign of our fixed mentality. Except this aim of entertainment only, one should go beyond to look at the deeper or another side of the movies. If we are considering literature as a part or mirror of the society then it's obviously affect surroundings, out of them movies are also in a queue to notice. It's a medium to look at the society & for that one can use literature to support it well.
Let's see review of the movie Midnight's Children:-
Brief about the movie:-
Midnight's Children is (Novel) published in 1981 written by Salman Rushdie & directed (Movie) by Deepa Mehta release in 2013.
"One will can't remain as he is.."
One or another way, in our life circumstances always play it's role. It's tries to narrate in this work here.
*Historical Facts
*Magical Influence
*Identity Issues
Let's go on it one by one.
Historical Children:-
Midnight's Children,the movie shows the covered incidents of the past.very initially it focuses on the two children who born at the midnight when India got its independence from British.
Saleem & Shiva two boys born on that midnight & due to circumstances whatever they were, that's not remain as if at the end.
Partition of India also parted two children's destiny from where they were.power works on other & issues started to happen.
This partition issues also look towards the humanity of http://us.in fact,it arises question on it.apart from religion & such mindset or mental construction one should go beyond towards humanity that matters actually.
Magical Influence:-
How magic, beliefs & such superstitious works to build or develop our mentality is a point to look at here.Deepa Mehta tries to depict some megical aspects to make the story flowing but it's can't from my side get the surprising impression that it actually demands for.
Parvati's trick to save Saleem from the hardship he had face through magic is sounds quite unnecessary as well as dull.
Identity Issues:-
The most & very prominent point to highlight throughout the work is Identity.
"From where I am..?"
It's remains the central question of the movie & it points at the Colonial study as well.
Fro entire movie, if i tries to find out some incidents or highlightments that signs towards such issues,so I can say that:
When just because of circumstances,Saleem & Shiva were exchange & they diverted from their born destiny to the present one & how power remain in the center to catch our attraction as well as awareness towards such characters & their position through the movie is important even.
How Shiva governed through power & use it on Saleem who one had such significance to deal.Some soliloquies of Saleem also focuses on the same.
Poverty turns to richness & richness to poverty.
At the end, i would say that just because of power structure & circumstantial mindset one forces to do some act accordingly & that's play a vital role to perform throughout the life & lasts until the end along with question on 'Belongingness'.
To add something here, as a part of my review on the movie i would say that it's a good movie,no doubt that deals with ever time concerned issues of identity yet through some scenes it looks boring to continue it repeatedly.age gape is good but there are also some distances remain that may not looks appropriate.apart from identity or post colonial view,if one has no more idea of post colonial study so he or she may only enjoy it by keeping mind the concept of Historical facts or events.so highlightment of decided theme may signify less here according to me.
Thank You.

Movie review on The Reluctant Fundamentalist


Here is My review on The movie 'The Reluctant Fundamentalist':-
Literature is considered as the mirror image of the society. Some mediums are uses to deal with various surrounding issues of the society & Movies are the best & effective way to deal the same.through entertainment one can get opportunity to go through the serious decision of particular time.
Let's glimpse on the movie review of The Reluctant Fundamentalist:-
Brief about the movie:-
The Reluctant Fundamentalist the movie is a Novel written in (2007) by Mohsin Hamid & directed in (2012) by Mira Nair.
It's about American craze & it's outcome. Perspective towards each other matters more when we have some rigidity to deal with. How our dreams & attraction may falls down sometimes due to less sense of dealing or adjusting. Here is a story of the 9/11 attack & behind that a young Pakistani boy Changez Khan framed very well throughout the entire movie.
Changez Khan though being a Pakistani,he had dreams of American culture, American living & it's Economy. From the very beginning of the movie, he comes as a crazy guy who had great attraction towards America & with the passing of time his destiny could not demand for more time & work & he rewarded by high level position of his working company.success & fate went side by side for him but as we know all that attraction falls a day.one should always have some sense of reality that works exactly behind our iillusions of mind.
How to get personality Changez had to suffer & what time & circumstances or i can say the located system of that time demands for is quite eye catchy point to notice.
To depart from his girlfriend is also at some point throws light on the actual mindset of http://them.to aware about the identity of Changez whoever he was how his depart scene was narrated is quite enough to point out.
Police system that behaved with Changez also shows the hardship of Pakistani & other community from Americans that victimizes still today. Even look of people also looks as some doubts & forces it us to prove it against them loyal.
When Changez return back to Pakistan & narrated his journey with a journalist is quite enough to look at the entire depiction of the movie in short.
Even there also he had to prove his identity through he was merely a dreamer of another community or part of people to be something or develop self as well.
Looks can be betrayal.
Above is the main thing to deal with the central concept of the movie here.
Looks as outer, physical structure & same as perspective,inner sight to look the outer scene.
In short, it's all about th study of post colonialism where the hero of the movie, Changez has to suffer a lot due to having American rush or craze & at every stage of his life he had to pay precious cost for that. If we Indians has some mean perspective towards outer community so there may be possibilities that there should also some goodness behind our thinking towards them & they may also has some suffers from the outer side. Even to fulfill dreams & life desires when one has to suffer more than it demands then it matters a http://lot.at the end to get even name & identity Changez had to fight within his dreams & hopes.
Being a reviewer i would say that,its good to deal with such movie depiction where one can rise voice against such particular community incidents or by using it as a medium of social reformation as well as entertainment that always demands hasty price to fulfill or even just chasing our dreams & desires according to our preferables & Mira Nair succeedes to portrays it quite well.
Its also suggests us to be aware from such reality that ultimately points out the concept of the movie:-
Looks can be betrayal.
Thank You.

English for Science & Technology

Hello Everyone,
Here is my interpretation on the article Teaching Of EST in Indian Conditions:-
EST:-English for Science & Technology
If one simply tries to bird viewing on the title of the present article he or she may come to know that it's a point that shows something about English language particularly for Science & Technology students.
Why such part is necessary to identity apart from general or basic English students first of all some may have question here.as R.S.Sharma tries to differentiate the slight line or changes between that two & needs & limitations that it accrued.let's see it in detail.
Methods or techniques of teaching English language to Science & Technology students is here comes as a point to discuss.
Methods that we used to learn as a English student is quite different from the students of Science & Technology.as it has some differences in subject matter & content.
Mostly it happens that material that provides to Science & Technology students are prepared by Foreign Authors.it may be beyond an average.Their perceptions & mind set plus way of dealing with one or another subject is obviously differ from our Indian author's publications as well as additions.it definitely hard to understand properly for Indian students & specially Science & Technology students.
So material that provides to Science & Technology students should be relevant to the content so students can easily grasp the exact meaning through it.
Teacher should have sources of require content based information. So that Science & Technology students can be clear for their content.as they have to learn various experiments & scientific methods they should have enough & co related teaching style grasped teachers specially in English language.
Relevant materials & methods helps such particular field students to turn their questions & doubts into some positive feedbacks.
English for Science & Technology students is sometimes take as a fun as they are good in their own particular group subjects but many out of them have queries & difficulties in English language & to deal with it as study subject specially.
(Image that I mentioned is just a glimpse of that regards)
Thank You.

English for Acedamic Purpose

Hello Everyone, Here is my interpretation on the Research work "English for Academic Purposes"by Liz Hamp-Lyons
What is EAP..?
EAP is not only a teaching approach but it's also a branch of applied linguistics consisting of a significant body of research into effective teaching & assessment approaches, methods of analysis of the academic language needs of students, analysis of the linguistic & discoursal structures of academic texts & analysis of the textual practices of academics.
EAP is an educational approach & a set of beliefs about TESOL(Teaching English to the Speakers of Other Languages) that is unlike that in general English courses & textbooks.
Background:-
The term EAP came into use through The British Organization SELMOUS(special English language materials for overseas university students) in 1972.Strevens saw EAP as a branch of the larger field of ESP(English for Special or Specific Purposes). EAP focus on Reading & Writing while General English focus on Speaking & Listening.
In discussing ESP & EAP Strevens argued that courses can be specific in four ways:-
By restricting the language taught to only those skills which are required for learner's immediate purpose
By selecting from the language only those items of vocabulary, grammar patterns & linguistic functions for the same purpose
By including only topics,themes & discourse contexts that are relevant to the learner's needs
By addressing those communicative needs that relate to his purpose
Jordan(1997) offers a useful & comprehensive overview of practice in EAP.
Needs Analysis:-
It is fundamental to an EAP approach to course design & teaching.
The language is attended to at the levels of:-
Register:-Lexical & grammatical features
Discourse:-The effect of communicative context,the relationship between text & its speakers
Genre:-How language is used in particular setting
Research:-
The first major study in this area was Geoghegan(1983).
Research in this area attends to affect how students feel about their study experiences, it also includes studies pointing out differences between student's wants & expectations.there is also significant research into the assessment of EAP by the British Council for the Associated Examining Board on TEAP(Teaching English for Academic Purposes).
Practice:-
Materials design & development
Attracts the best English language teachers
A concern with literacy dominates the literature & the terminology of academic skills development (in USA).
Current & future trends & directions:-
The term Academic Literacy has come to be applied to the complex set of skills which are increasingly argued to be vital underpinnings to the cultural knowledge required for success in academic communities from elementary school on.
The discourse of academic literacy is more usually found outside TESOL.
Conclusion:-
EAP is a thriving & important aspect of TESOL.
Its greatest strength is its responsiveness to the needs of the learners but its greatest weakness also the same that making many of its solutions highly contextual & of doubtful transferability.
Thank You.

English for Specific Purposes

Hello Everyone, Here is my interpretation on the Research work of Tony Dudley-Evans on English for Specific Purposes:-
English for specific purposes ESP has for about 30 years been a separate branch of English language teaching. ESP has always seen itself as materials-driven & as a classroom-based activity concerned with practical outcomes. It deals with teaching, material production & text analysis.
Background:-
Key defining features of ESP
Its teaching & materials are founded on the results of needs analysis
In EAP one can be more precise about learner's needs where it defined by a learning or occupational situation
Robinson in her first overview of ESP suggested that limited duration & adult learners are defining features of ESP courses
It target to intermediate or advanced students of English but for beginners only
It may be designed for specific disciplines or profession
The ESP teacher needs to bear in mind & exploit possible specific knowledge that leads to classroom interaction & teaching methodology
ESP materials will always draw on the topics & activities of specific purposes
Classification:-
ESP is usually classified into two main categories:-
EAP academic (eeducational context)
EOP occupational (professional purposes)
The biggest branch of EOP is Business English
Dudley-Evans & St John (1998) drawing on an idea from George Blue to make a distinction between English for general academic purposes ( EGAP) & English for specific academic purposes (ESAP) & similar distinction can be made between English for general business purposes ( EGBP) & English for specific business purposes ( ESBP)
In the USA it called Content based instruction (CBI)
(Separate from ESP)
EST is a branch of EAP that used when most EAP teaching was for students of engineering & science.
In USA,EVP(English for vocational purposes) is frequently used for teaching English for specific tredes or vocations.it sub divided into vocational English & pre- vocational English
Research:-
Beyond needs analysis
The initial needs analysis provides information about the target situation, what learners will have to do in English & the skills & language needed.this is generally called Target situation analysis.(Chambers 1980)
Needs analysis will always be the first step for ESP,it involves the most detailed analysis
It has been increasing emphasis on investigating some additional factors.
Information about the learners
Particular level in English language
Awareness in language
Skills needed
Learner's perception of needs
Learning situation analysis:-
The investigation of subjectivity felt needs,as opposed to the objective needs established by target situation analysis.
Present situation analysis:-
The investigation of learner's weaknesses or lacks.
Means analysis:-
Analysis of the learning situation within the teaching institution or company.
The need for text analysis:-
What the learner has to produce & understand is considers to identify the text's key features & devices teaching materials that will enable them to use the text effectively.
Analysis of scientific & technical text leads to material production(Lackstrom 1973)
Category of learner's is quite important here.
ESP school is considering higher level issues where research using corpora & concordancing techniques that linked genre analysis with phraseological studies.
Concern with the discourse community's work is also characteristics of the teaching of business english that is the current growth area in ESP.
Practice:-
Hamp-Lynos discusses a number of coursebooks in EAP
In EOP,St.John discusses various types of material that has brief description of key coursebooks
Research work in gener analysis is beginning to generate textbooks applying its findings to the teaching of academic writing.
Current & future trends & directions:-
Learner's background & the effort of the environment in which they use English.
This leads to an increased awareness of the importance of cross cultural issues & a shift towards further research in this area.
Future analysis has two directions:-
Concern with the broader picture of how discourse communities work & the role that the text plays within them
Specific concern will be used to investigate the phreseology of particulat specialist genres in specialist disciplines & professions.
ESP should develop an awareness in ESP students of how they can assert their rights.
Thank You.

As per my understanding here is my interpretation on mentioned Poems.

«  Modern Literature:-
During Modern time community living turns to individual freedom.
Men started to think psychologically,their mind set started to changing.

Attitude of that time was highly frustrated due to mental & moral fight between two.

It demands for high level understanding.
