Thinking Activity on Structuralism & Literary Criticism

Structuralism & Literary Criticism

Robert Frost's "Fire and Ice" & Edmund Spenser's "Ice and Fire".

$Robert Frost's "Fire & Ice"

1) "Fire"

 => In that fire means desires, which mean human desires same as fire in its nature. The poet Robert Frost wants to say that the world will be destroy one day. He think that world will end human desire which he shows in the poem as 'Fire'.

    According to my opinion the poet  tells us that the result of uncontrolled and endless desires like fire in the fire and its nature.

2) "Ice"

=> Similarly, there is a silent killer that is related to ice smoking. But he also thinks the hatred and cruelty of humanity poetry will end. And some people believe that the earth will end in the ice. The ice is compared to it and since then the fire and the ice of the earth will end.

$ Edmund Spenser's "Ice & Fire"

 => The poet uses strong imagery to excite and push the reader to contemplate the beauty of his expression and the meaning of his words. He describes his desire as fire and the object of his love as ice. He compares the properties of both of these and marvel's at how they do not destroy each other. The comparisons of fire and ice are really strong ways to about feelings.

Structuralism

=> Structuralism is generally define as the rectangular aspect of the individual evolution of humans. We apply this concept to a literary original writing film and serial, so that we can do that, it is kind of the entire text should always be in the context of the place of words the real meaning of this is the criticism.

   Structural critics, Gerard Genette, Ferdinand Saussure, Roland Barthes gave very good impression of structuralism through their ideas. According to theme the similarity is that  any literature can be found in the art formation technique, which can be seen keeping in mind the structure of structuralism. If we can see that there are such pattern in our Bollywood movies and some TV serial. There are usually three sections in which the   entire content is held. The species is also used when presenting that materials.

            1) Languge, Langue and Parole.

            2) Sing= Signifire+ Signified.

            3) Diachronic vs. Synchronic study

Saussure applied this study which whatever meanings are articulated.

  1) Arbitrary 

  2) Relational 

  3) Constructs 

     If we take the example of the film or the series, then find the same principles again. As we can see that the idea of love or death occurs in a different way and is presented in time. We can see many Hindi films, sometimes eventually there will be reverses on both sides as it has the same concepts of sharing.

For example Hollywood movie, Braveheart

Direct by: Mel Gibson

       Back when we still thought Mel Gibson was a sane person, he played the role of William Wallace in Braveheart, a movie about revenge against England’s oppressive rule. Following the death of his family as a boy, and the execution of his wife, Wallace leads a revolution against the English tyrant leader. It’s violent medieval warfare that’s entertainment at its finest.

      His family was killed and he wanted vengence (can't blame him), but a very sad ending. I wanted to see in in it's entirty with out any intrupptions. He got all the Clans together to fight the English king. after a Soldier raped his wife then the lord of his land had her tied to a stake and killed her.

       The movie is related with many usual movies and some kind of common stories, like Bollywood movie "Damini". Hollywood movie Robin Hood, Gladiator etc.
