IGNOU Solved Assignment: MEG-3

Que: discuss major themes in tom jones Ans: Contrasts in varieties of life Henry Fielding's work presents a 'slice of life' and in doing so, it naturally presents all the natural varieties of living too. This becomes a major theme because it is apparent at more than one place. Not only are characters contrasted but also - situations, human reactions and even predicaments. It is through these contrasts that Fielding manages to paint a realistic picture of life. This picture is believable and exciting all at once. And, owing to these contrasts, we are better able to appreciate the positive and deride the negatives. This theme is carried forth to the very end, when Tom Jones and Blifil are contrasted yet again. Human Nature This is an obvious theme of all novels, but even more so - of this one. And, Fielding states this purpose very plainly and clearly. Human Nature is depicted in its many forms with its strengths as well as weaknesses. It is this aspect t...

IGNOU Solved Assignment: MEG-10: ENGLISH STUDIES IN INDIA

MEG-10 3. What does nativisation of English mean in the Indian context? Explain. Ans: It is often the case that a foreign language can have such power and influence over an individual or country as to be adopted into their culture and way of life. As in the case of India, the English language was introduced decades ago and used prolifically by the English colonists who settled there and governed the country for over one hundred years.  It stands to reason then that some nativization of Indians could and did occur!  Especially since Indian natives were used as servants, nannies, workers, and comrades-in-arms throughout the years!  The Indians literally lived, worked, and associated with the English in every aspect of their lives,  adopted their dress, ate their food, and learned to speak their language.  Then, these natives took that culture back to their own homes and influenced their own families. Over the years, because every Indian was ...

IGNOU Questions and Answers: MEG-2

Que: What is the role of chorus in Murder in the cathedral? Ans: The Chorus : an unspecified number of Canterbury's women, is a corporate character serving the same purposes as does the chorus in Greek drama: to develop and, more importantly, to comment on the action of the play. The women's initial speech fairly defines their dramaturgic role: "We are forced to bear witness." And yet this chorus, like its ancient Greek predecessors, is no mere, dispassionate, objective "eyewitness"; rather, it is a witness bearing testimony to truth-almost as in a legal proceeding, but that analogy fails to capture the nature of the testimony the chorus offers. In commenting upon the action of Thomas Becket's murder, the women are voicing insights into, reflections on, and conclusions about time, destiny, and life and death. In the end, they emerge as representatives of ordinary people-such as those who make up the audience of the play, or its readersh...
