Hello Readers !
Welcome to my blog. Now I'm sharing with you my opinion about the novel Plague written by Albert Camus and running situation of Covid19 Corona virus. Click here for know more about this task.
The COVID19 epidemic is going to affect all walks of our lives. Our creative and critical abilities will forever be governed by corona virus pandemic. It is going to open those areas in creating writing and critical reading of literature which were rather not thought as we were in amnesia of pandemic. We may see seminars and conferences on 'Literature and Epidemics'.
Albert Camus's 'The Plague' is one literature text which was the most talked about globally in recent times. As a student of literature we shall know about this novel and what happens in history. There are many quation in my mind that , how this desis is happens ? What is reason behind it? What can people do in this situation?
There is old sentence : "History repeats". I came to know about this novel during the days of pandemic Covid-19 if you change the 'Plague' with "Covide 19" Corona virus it's seems you are reading tweets. This book is alive today and word describes it:" masterpiece".

History many time repeats its aware us but people ignore it then this situation is grown and became a dangerous disease.

The Plague - Albert Camus
The Plague (French: La Peste) is a novel by Albert Camus, published in 1947, that tells the story of a plague sweeping the French Algerian city of Oran. It asks a number of questions relating to the nature of destiny and the human condition. The characters in the book, ranging from doctors to vacationers to fugitives, all help to show the effects the plague has on a populace. The novel is believed to be based on the cholera epidemic that killed a large proportion of Oran's population in 1849 following French colonization, but the novel is set in the 1940s. Oran and its surroundings were struck by disease several times before Camus published his novel. According to a research report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Oran was decimated by the plague in 1556 and 1678, but all later outbreaks, in 1921 (185 cases), 1931 (76 cases), and 1944 (95 cases), were very far from the scale of the epidemic described in the novel.
1. Humanity - human self-centeredness VS human sacrifice
This is very interesting question about humanity. During this very dangerous disease Corona virus what can people do?. We can see that many people like doctors, scientist, police, sweepers and many other people fight against dangerous disease day to night for save humans life. In the novel of The Plague, Albert Camus said that there are many people sacrifice their lives for fight against Plague for save humans lives like doctor Bernard Rieux who sacrificed their lives for save Human from this disease. But other hand we can see that doctor Barnard many times told government about this diseases but government doesn't take it seriously they told that, થોભો અને રાહ જુઓ. But doctor Barnard knows that this is not simple disease but lack of awareness of government it's spread uncontrollably animals to man.
Stupidity of people during COVID 19 Corona Virus.
We can see in this picture that many peoples like doctors, police, sweeper and many other fight against Corona Virus for save human's life. But other hand we can see that because of stupidity of people's situation became very critical.
Corona Virus Plate clapping campaign amid public curfew viral on social meadia, question arose. Amidst the growing havoc of the Corona virus, where the enthusiasm was seen on March 22 for Prime Minister Narendra Modi's appeal of the public curfew. In fact appeal of janata Curfew was due to people doing social distancing at home and increasing the enthusiasm of people to deal with global epidemic like Corona. But some people took to the street in Delhi, Indore, Ahmadabad and other parts of the country and made fun of camping by taking the crowd, they have also became a character of laughter. We can see here stupidity of peoples and situation become very critical.
2. Science VS Religion -the question of God and religion in times of epidemic and calormities.

2. Science VS Religion -the question of God and religion in times of epidemic and calormities.
This is very interesting debate running ever never end. In this pandemic situation this debate became very serious. We can see that how people connect this situation with religion. In the novel The Plague we can see the debate between religoun vs science, debate between Priest and Dr.Bernard Rieux. In his novel Camus said that A catholic priest called Panel ohh he gives a sermon to the city in the cathedral of the main squar and seeks to explain The Plague as God's punishment for depravity. But can whoes here doctor who loathes this approach the plague is not a punishment for anything deserved that would be to imagine that the universe was moral or had some sort of design to it but doctor vo watched a young innocent child die in his hospital and he knows better suffering entirely randomly distributed it makes no sense it . It is no ethical force it is simply absurd.
Power politics - Fascist forces of 1940s vs Surveillance society of 2020s.
Power and politics its happens everywhere. In the novel The Plague Albert Camus said that Dr. Bernard comes to know about this disease and he many times awakes government but government doesn't take it serious. They say that થોભો અને રાહ જુઓ. why they give this kind of answer? anything politics behind it? Dr. many times told that this disease but they doesn't take it serious and situation became uncontrolled. Disease spread uncontrollably animals to humans.
Now the days the dangerous virus Corona spread uncontrollably in the world.
