Character study of Othello

Hello Readers!


Welcome to my blog! This my B. A. Studies blog. I wrote here blog on one of my favourite drama "Othello" written by World famous writer William Shakespeare.  We also performed this drama when I have in second year of my  B. A. study.  I played role of Casio. This is very interesting drama and also teach us lots of things. Trust is very important in our life. Othello doesn't trust on his beloved and killed her without thinking and knowing. At the end of the play he realise that his beloved is innocent and he was killed himself. Let's we look the character of Othello in detail. 
  • William Shakespeare

Joseph Campbell once was quoted saying,
 “A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself.”
 A hero can make a difference by his or her actions and words. A hero may live next door to you or can be someone who is known all around the world. There are many heroes that have accomplished a goal or great deed. A true hero has many qualities such as selflessness, perseverance, persistence, and open-mindedness. To some people, William Shakespeare of England is a hero because of his superior writing.
William Shakespeare was born on April 23, 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon in England. He died on April 23, 1610. William was married to Mary Arden. They had three children named Susannah, Hamnet, and Judith. Although they didn’t follow in his footsteps, they admired and supported his work. William Shakespeare's wonderful plays have been performed all over the world. William wrote over 30 plays and 150 sonnets with very unique words in them. His works have been translated into every major language today. Shakespeare’s last two plays were written after he retired to Stratford. Click here for read more about Shakespeare.

    "Othello"  ~ By William Shakespeare 



Wonderful book! Reading Othello can offer you matchless insights into male conscience and psychology. Above all, it helps you understand the meaning of personal relationships in the context of social dynamics and how these things shape our world. Othello's love for Desdemona was real but not as real as Desdemona's for Othello. In a world, where men dominate and a man believes another man rather than his own woman, a wife's love finds it difficult to obtain meaning and value. Iago is a villain who represents the poisonous male dominated society and how the venom it has nurtured for generations is still its nemesis. Women have continued to sacrifice themselves for their men for generations but men could still not return the same love or worship women as they worship their men. Shakespeare proves that Desdemona's love wins but if only Othello had retained his love for her and not felt troubled or unsettled by Iago's treacheries, his life would have become heaven. The tragic drama is a splendid work by Shakespeare and helps you peep into a world where a woman's love is still struggling to find meaning. Shakespeare's characters are amazing and so are his works but the theme of this drama is just matchless and so is the author's candid treatment of the topic. It all begins at a point where a war is over and the winner takes home a beautiful wife as a trophy but keeps judging himself all his life for if he ever deserved her. Shakespeare has poured all his love into the drama for his readers to show how love for love can change the world. This is very interesting book review given by Abhieet Pratap.



Character Sketch of Othello 

Othello is one sense, is by for the most romantic figure among Shakespeare's heroes; and he is so partially from the strong life of war and adventure which he has lived from childhood. He does not belong to  our world and he seems to enter it we know not from where almost as if from wonder length. He stands among the best known character of literary world. Like a magnificent hero of tragedy. Othello's characterisation is glorious and  unforgettable. He passes many distinctive qualities generally a hero should have. He is noble generous, brave, a true lover and a good human being but all his qualities are defected by a single vice that is his suspicion takes him towards his own distraction. Let's analysis his character in detail.

  •  Physical Appearance


Othello physical appearance is completely contrast to the concept of hero. He is very ugly looking coloured moor of course his looks very strong and brave but his look does not match with a general handsome looking hero. 

  • As a Brave commander

Basically, Othello is a soldier, a brave commander. Perhaps that's why he fails in love, because he takes decision to kill Desdemona  without considering the issue sound mindedly. He has participated in numerous wars, battles  and proved himself  a great worrier. He is so capable that he is given the entire responsibility to protect Cyprus  from   possible alack by the Turks.

  • As a lover

Othello is of course a champion in battle fields; he also succeeds to win Desdemona's affection when he narrates his experience of battle field before Brabantio. Desdimona Brabantio's daughter is impressed by him and she falls in love with him. At Cyprus when Othello and Desdemona arrives, we can observe some of the best poetic dialogue by this Romantic lover. Brabantio warns him about faithlessness, Othello replies him,

"My life upon her faith"

  •  As Shakespeare's Hero

Like Hamlet , King Liyar or others Shakespearean heroes, Othello occupies a hire level. He possesses a respectable position as the commander in vanashian army. Shakespearean tragedy introduces tragic heroes who are exceptional personalities As S.C. Bradly point out;  

"We have seen already that the
hero with Shakespeare is a person
of height or public importance 
and that his actions or sufferings
are an unusual kind".
  
Othello is a typical Shakespearean hero. We can observe 'Hamaratia means the fall or degradation of the hero.

  • His Weaknesses

Every traditional hero of tragedy passes some weakness of fault which causes destruction for him as well as others. Othello fails to understand Iago's intrigues and therefor Iago traps him. In edition to that Othello can not judge Desdemona, his beloved properly. His dearest beloved turns faithless for him very soon. He kills her for know fault of hers failure can be divided into two parts those who only think but do not think and those who only think but never act. Othello is first type of failure who murders his wife without thinking. While Hamlet only thinks and acts very late.

  • His tragic end


As it is pattern of Shakespeare's tragedy, most of the characters die at the end of the play with or without faults. Othello after killing his wife and knowing truth about Iago's intrigues, feels heavily , sense guilt. He commits suicide. A brave warrior, A true lover and good matured hero dies winning sympathy from the audience.


  • Conclusion
'Othello' is a Shakespearean tragedy. It has a rich characterisation but Othello is a main character of this drama. He is kind hearted man but one misunderstanding create by Iago and he kills his love Desdemona. Othello is an uncomparable character in this drama.

Quality : Short Story



Hello Readers!


Welcome to my blog. Now I,m going to write about my B.A studies blog. In the last year of B.A. we have studies very interesting short story "Quality" written by John Galsworthy. The title itself suggest lot's of thing. This story about Gessler Brothers that how they faced difficult situation. This story about the great shoes maker. We can see that the how people choose things without thinking and observing. Now the days many people also choose quantitative thing instead of qualitative. Very hard working shoes maker suffer because of that people doesn't chose qualitative thing they go behind quantity. The Gessler brothers tragedy signifies a moral decay in search for material civilisation.  Human values are threatened by material gain. 


We can think this points;
  •   Quality or Quantity 
  • Quality versus artificiality
  • Human values or materialistic world?
  • Concept of industrialisation and modernisation
  • does the art of artist is replaced by machine?


Let's we look the short story in detail.

John Galsworthy


John Galsworthy, (born Aug. 14, 1867, Kingston Hill, Surrey, Eng.—died Jan. 31, 1933, Grove Lodge, Hampstead), English novelist and playwright, winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1932.
Galsworthy’s family, of Devonshire farming stock traceable to the 16th century, had made a comfortable fortune in property in the 19th century. His father was a solicitor. Educated at Harrow and New College, Oxford, Galsworthy was called to the bar in 1890. With a view to specializing in marine law, he took a voyage around the world, during which he encountered Joseph Conrad, then mate of a merchant ship. They became lifelong friends. Galsworthy found law uncongenial and took to writing. For his first works, From the Four Winds (1897), a collection of short stories, and the novel Jocelyn(1898), both published at his own expense, he used the pseudonym John Sinjohn. The Island Pharisees (1904) was the first book to appear under his own name.
Quality


Quality by John Galsworthy was first published in "The Inn of Tranquillity: studies and essays" in 1912. Title itself is a "quality" of "Quality". It is a short and simple but meaningful. The short story "Quality" describe the value of quality. Narrator see a perfectness in work which is qualitative.

Theme of the Story


The main theme is commitment; commitments to one's work, to one's passion. Every worker artist if he loves his work and is immersed in it. The Gessler brother's commitment towards their work is really touching. For them the struggles, the hardships are nothing as long as they keep doing their work. The tragedy of Gessler brothers signifies a moral decay in the search for material civilisation. Human values are threatened by material gain.

Plot of the story

The story starts with the description of the boot shop; on top was the name plate 'Gessler Brothers' and a few shoes displayed on the window. They make shoes on order. The narrator then narrates one of his meetings with Mr. Gessler. He says it has not been possible to go him much because the shoes he made have lasted very long and are the best of their kind.

One day the narrator goes to their shop to get a pair of Russian leather shoes. Mr. Gessler retreat upstairs and comes back after sometime holding a fine golden Russian leather piece. After the narrator's approval he says he'll get his shoes tomorrow fortnight.

One day the narrator goes to their boot shop and tells him that the last shoes he got from him creak. After a long pause Mr. Gessler asks him to them, he assures that if he can't repair them, he will give the money back.

Another day he goes to Gessler Brothers to order a new pair, wearing a pair of shoes which he bought due to some emergency from a big firm. Mr. Gessler at once recognises that the shoes are not made by him. He touches a particular spot on the narrator's shoe where it isn't comfortable for the narrator and says that it hurts there. He expresses his contempt that thoes large firms attract customers through shiny impressive advertisements to sell their inferior quality products. Then the author explains to him under what circumstances he had to buy those shoes. 

The new shoes lasted nearly two years. And in his next visit he receives quite a shock. When he enters the shop, he sees the younger Gessler brother who informs him of elder Gessler' s death. That day he orders several pairs. It takes longer to make them but the quality is even better than the previous ones.

Soon after, the narrator leaves for abroad and returns after over a years. The first shop he goes to is Mr. Gessler's , now seventy five, is unable to recognise him at first. Narrator gives a huge order. The wait is longer than ever but the quality only gets better. 

After a week, while passing the little street, the narrator thinks to go in and tell Mr. Gessler that the boots are perfect. But when he goes to the place where the shop was the name plates is no longer there. 

Disturbed, he goes into the shop and young English face greets him. The narrator enquires about Mr. Gessler and comes to know of younger Gessler's death. Upon hearing this the narrator is quite shocked. 

The young man explains to him that Gessler died from starvation; he used to devoted himself to shoe making so much that he used to forget about everything else. All the money went in the rents and leather. The fate was quite obvious from the beginning. But both the narrator and the young man agrees that the Gessler brothers made good quality boots.

Phases of Plot

Exposition : 

It provides the reader with the knowledge of Gessler Brothers, their shops, and their attitude toward making boots.

Conflict :

The brother are faced by the competition of the big firm. When they lose one of the two shops, the handicraft men is strengthen. 

Climax :

The climax arrives when the surviving younger brother can no longer make a living.

Denouement :

The denouement comes  with his death and the success of big firm.

Mr. Gessler is an excellent craftsman the narrator remarks about;

"I will say that far him
not a man in London maid
a better boot"

Such a very interesting short story, we think abort importance of qualitative things or qualitative what we chose?

My Grandmother : Poem


Hello Readers!

welcome to my blog. This is my B.A studies blog in which i have wrote about the poem of "my Grandmother", written by Elizabeth Jennings.


Elizabeth Jennings :



Elizabeth Jennings, in full Elizabeth Joan Jennings, (born July 18, 1926, Boston, Lincolnshire, England—died October 26, 2001, Brampton, Oxford shire), English poet whose works relate intensely personal matters in a plainspoken, traditional, and objective style and whose verse frequently reflects her devout Roman Catholicism and her love of Italy.

"My Grandmother"

My Grandmother is a poem written by Elizabeth Jennings. Let's we look the overall analysis of the poem.


Title of the Pom 

It explore the relationship between the personae and her grandmother. It focus on the remorse and guilt she felt after her grandmother passed away. 

Theme of the Poem 

The poet explores her own feeling of inadequacy inadequacy in dealing with her grandmother. In a broader sense, the poet seems to explore the difficulties in relationships and with people's feelings as opposed to the inanimate objects her grandmother collected around herself. 

Language of the Poem

The language used appears simple and straightforward, using ordinary words and phrases. This conceals the complexity of the feelings it explores. The image of dust is used in the final stanza and carries connotation of death. The language is descriptive,e.g.'faded silks', 'brass salvers', 'silver bowls'.

  Structure of the Poem 

This poem divided into four stanzas, each of which develops the idea further :

Stanza 1 : Describe her grandmother 
Stanza 2 : describe the incident which causes her guilt 
Stanza 3 : shows her grandmother in retirement
Stanza four : after her grandmother has died, the poet reflects on her grandmother's life and her own memories.

This poem written in one long stanza, in lines of iambic pentameter. Rhyme scheme of the poem is ABABCC. Although it is a first person narrative, this is also partly an elegy in that it remembers a dead person.

Overall Synopsis 


First Stanza

The first stanza begins by saying that Elizabeth's Grandmother owned an antique shop, which she cherished more than anything or anyone. She kept lots of them that they became to dictate your life. She has a great relationship and a passion with her possessions. This can be found in line 1.

"She kept an antique shop-or kept her.
Among Apostle spoons and Bristol glass,
The faded silks, her heavy furniture"

In the antique shop there was heavy furniture, which had been faded over the years. There was a good atmosphere in the shop. She polished the object and antiques very well. It was a well-run shop. When she looks in the brass she see her own reflection she has better relationship with the shop than any of her family, or friends. This can be found in line 4.

"She watched her own reflection in the brass
Slaver and silver bowls, as if to prove,
Polish was all, there was no need for love".

Second Stanza 


In this second stanza, Elizabeth is describing a particular incident that happened in her childhood.This can be found in line 7.

"And I remember how once refused
To go out with her since! was afraid.
It was perhaps a wish not to be used
like a antique objects...."


Her grandmother asked her granddaughter if she would go out with her but she refused and thought her grandmother would own her but not love her. She felt abstinent, and felt she should have gone with her, but also had to say what she felt. She did not want to go with her, so she said 'no' , line 10.

"Though she never said 
That was hurt, I still could feel the guilt.
of that refusal, guessing how she felt".

She was starting to fell guilty about refusing to go out with her grandmother. Elizabeth did not know what her grandmother was thinking or feeling when she refused to go out, but she guessed she was not happy. Even though her grandmother said nothing she still felt guilty about what she had said.

Stanza Three :


The third stanza is when her grandmother gets more frail, and is not able to keep the antique shop running. The third stanza is what the grandmother does in retirement. She has a sense of loneliness because she spends more time with her shop than with people who care about her. She replaces her family with her hobby and her passion for the antique shop when she excessively polishes she is trying to escape from reality. This can be found in line 13.

"Later, too frail to keep a shop, she put
All her best things in one long, narrow room."

In the next four lines of stanza three we can see that the place she had gone to smelt old, and the smell of absence where the shadows come that could not be polished. This meant that she had gone to a place where she could not clean.

In stanza three the grandmother has died. When it says that the 'shadows come' it means that death has arrived and has come for the grandmother. She would not be able to use polish to make her reflection return or return her life back out of reality and into her dream world.

Sthanza 4 

In the fourth and final stanza the grandmother has died and nobody is looking after her antique shop. The echoes of another have surrounding the shop, because it has lots its life, just like her grandmother, this can be found in line 19 to the end of the poem;

"And when she dies, felt no grief at all 
only the guilt of what I once refused.
I walked into her room among the tall 
sideboards and cupboards-things she never used
But needed: and no finger-marks were there
only the new dust falling through the air."


In these lines of stanza four we can see that Elizabeth Jennings felt no grief of her grandmother , but she still felt the guilt about her refusal in stanza two. She may not have felt any grief when she dies because she was not that close and had no thing to do with her. Most people expect to feel grief when a family member, friend or pet dies but some people feel more grief for a friend or pet than a distant or closer family member.

She walked into her grandmothers room and saw all of her belongings, which was in there, and realised that she needed none of it. She never used any of it . It was just wasted. In her room there was no dust or finger mark where the dust would be collected over a day or two. It was beginning to show because she was not there to clean it.

Conclusion:

Poet describes the emotional part of her life and how she faced her guilt and after that her memories with grandmother is core of the poem that she elaborate it with a massive feelings.

Thank you!

The Nightingale and The Rose : Short Story


Hello Readers! 

Now I'm going to share my B. A studies blog with you. We studied many novel's, drama, poetry, Short Story etc... Now I'm sharing with you the Short Story of The Nightingale and the Rose", one of the famous story written by Oscar Wilde. Let's we look in deep.


  • Oscar Wilde 


Author, playwright and poet Oscar Wilde was a popular literary figure in late Victorian England. After graduating from Oxford University, he lectured as a poet, art critic and a leading proponent of the principles of aestheticism. In 1891, he published The Picture of Dorian Gray, his only novel which was panned as immoral by Victorian critics, but is now considered one of his most notable works. As a dramatist, many of Wilde’s plays were well received including his satirical comedies Lady Windermere's Fan (1892), A Woman of No Importance (1893), An Ideal Husband (1895) and The Importance of Being Earnest (1895), his most famous play. Unconventional in his writing and life, Wilde’s affair with a young man led to his arrest on charges of "gross indecency" in 1895. He was imprisoned for two years and died in poverty three years after his release at the age of 46. Click here for know more about Oscar Wilde.

The Nightingale and Rose 



The Nightingale and Rose written by Oscar Wilde. It is very interesting Short story. Let's we look analysis of the story "The Nightingale and Rose".


  • Title : The Nightingale and Rose 

The Nightingale and Rose is a Fairy tale story. The story is suggestive with "Art for Art's sake" as Oscar Wilde is believed of it. The title of the short story indicates that the narrative may be a fable or a fairy tale, but also that there may be a hidden symbolism behind it. As the Story reveals the main character of the Short Story is Nightingale. 

Many times writers give title of their works  bases on the main character ,main elements or main ideas of the work. Here we can see that the Bird nightingale's sacrifice is centre of the story and the symbol of the Rose is central elements of the story. So we can say that write uses very suitable and appropriate title for the Story. 


  • Main Theme of the story 


  • Sacrifice 
  • Love 
  • Materialism 

1.Theme of Sacrifice 

The theme of Sacrifice is solely explored in the short story through the character of Nightingale. The bird illustrates willpower and the name of an idea and for the sake of others. When she hears the students lamenting his bad Faith because he is unable to be with the girl he loves because he does not have a red rose. The Nightingale immediately relates to him and understands his sorrow.

First, she is willing to sacrifice her time and give away her songs to get the rose. 

2. Love of Love 

The theme of Love of Love is also explored in the short story through the Nightingale, although the bird sets of to help a student in love ( a practical example of love), the birds seems also very inspired by the idea of love itself, which the nightingale describes in almost absolute terms:

Surly love is a wonderful thing. It is more precious than emeralds, and dearer than fine opals pearls and pomegranates cannot buy it, nor is it set forth in the market-place.

3. Materialism 

Materialism is explored in the short story through the human character: the student, the professor's daughter, and the chamberlain's nephew. All these characters are materialistic in some sense.

The student evoke the rational side of materialism as he needs to see a practical end in all endeavours, He needs his love to manifest at the practical level.


  • Main Symbol of the story    

   1. Red Rose
   2. Nightingale 
   3. Lizard 
   4. Silk
   5. A Dusty Book

A Red Rose



Red roses are traditionally associated with romance so it is not surprisingly that wild uses one  to symbolise true love in "The Nightingale and the Rose". It's significance, however, shifts over the context of the story. At First the rose appears to represent the students love for the girl. Since her refusal to dance with him unless he brings her the flower makes the flower into a piece of evidence that his feelings are genuine. By sacrificing her life to bring the student a rose, the  Nightingale further underscores this idea that the flower is an expression of true love, in fact,  the Rose quite literally comes from the nightingale's heart, because she uses her blood to stain it red. In the end, however, neither the student nor the girl is able to appreciate the Rose's symbolical significance. The girl, for instance, compare the rose unfavourably to the Jewels she has received from another suitor, which the student reacts angrily when the girl goes back on her promise to dance with him. This suggests that neither character or ever truly saw the rose's as a  symbol of love, but rather as a kind of currency to buy someone's affection. 

2. Nightingale 



Nightingale's defining characteristic is the beautiful voice which she uses largely as a means of bringing pleasure to others. A truthful, devoted pursuer of love, who dares to sacrifice his own precious life. 


" All night long she sang with her breast against the thorn she kept on singing, the thorn went deeper into her breast, until the rose sucked all her blood."


3. Lizard 



Cynical pessimist, a person who sees little no good in anything and who has no belief in human progress.

"Why he weeping?" 
Asked a little Green Lizards, as he ran past him with his tail in the air. "how very ridiculous!" and the  little Lizard, who was something of a cynic, laughed outright. 



4. Silk 

The blue silk the girl is winding is a symbol of her shallowness and materialism silk is a luxury fabric, so its appearance foreshadows the girls rejection of the rose in favour of more monetarily valuable jewels. The colour of the fabric is significant as well as, because European artists have traditionally depicted the virgin Mary draped in blue silk. In this case, however, the use of the colour is ironic ; Mary's blue robes typically signally, her heavenly nature, but the girl in "The Nightingale and the Rose" is entirely worldly.     

5. The Dusty Book 

At the end of "The Nightingale and the Rose" , the student rejects loves and returns to studying metaphysics. The book he opens is dusty, which suggest that no one has read it in a long time. This undercuts the students claim that in studying philosophy, he will be engaging directly with practical real wold matters . The book thus symbolises the hollowness of the intellectualism the student espouses.

Each lighthouse features a larger lamp on top of the Tower. At night, it lights up when everything around is dark.  The lamp, which is installed in the lantern room with glass windows, works as a flashlight and allows boats and ships to sight land from far away at sea.
