Jude The Obscure by Thomas Hardy
Thinking Activity:
This blog is a response to Thinking Activity of Thomas Hardy's Jude The Obscure assigned by Dr. Dilip Barad Sir, the Department of English, MKBU. In this blog I'm going to discuss about the question of Thomas Hardy's " Jude The Obscure".
Question 1) What is the Significance of epigraph written by Hardy - 'Letter Killeth' - for this novel, Jude the Obscure.
Response:
Introduction
This novel is written by Thomas Hardy.
In these novel as in the starting of title we can understand the title which is Jude the Obscure where the word Obscure means Unknown which is hard to understand from where it starts with the Character Jude is the boy who was very small and he was an Orphan Child who lives with his aunt Drusilla who raised him. Who wants to follow the example of his teacher Mr. Phillotson, who leaves Marygreen for Christminister to take a university degree and Ordained. Where Jude is leaving with his aunt and helps his aunt in her bakery. And he tries hard to study and to move himself to Christminister for further study and once he meets to Arabella and she forces him towards the marriage and he marries with her when afterwards she moves to Australia and Jude goes to Christminister's university where he was having one aspiration to go there and study and become something of himself good. Then again there also his cousin meets him who was Sue Bridehead who disturbs him in the university also and where he falls in love with her and where Sue wanted to work so Jude takes her to his Mr. Phillotson who gives her the job of training the students.
So in these way I will not write the similar thing as explained in the novel "Jude the Obscure" by Thomas Hardy. But I will explain in short the epigraph "Letter Killeth" in Thomas Hardy's " Jude the Obscure" means that strict rules and conventions which harms or" kills' his own individual spirit and happiness.
Conclusion:
In the noivel, it highlights how Society's rigid norms and traditions lead to suffering and tragedy for the characters, showing the Conflict between Societal expectations and personal desires.

Pride & Prejudice(Th)
Thinking Activity
This blog is a response to Thinking Activity of Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice assigned by Megha Trivedi mam, the Department of English,MKBU. In this blog I'm going to discuss about the related questions of Pride & Prejudice by Jane Austen.
Here we begin;
Q.1 Compare the narrative strategy of the novel & movie.
Response: In novel of Pride & Prejudice the narrative strategy is third person omniscient narrater. Where we can see the direct speaking(telling) of the story where Elizabeth is seen as she is expressing her feelings and others characters around her and where we can see that the narrator is accessing the story to us about the marriage and basics needs of the girls that they have to marry as it is the trend of traditional way of marrying which is passing on from the ancient time.
And where in the movie it is narrated by the different Characters where Elizabeth is expressing her feelings and by that we are getting the point of view of the narrative strategy is being understood very easily. And how the things work really in this movie Pride & Prejudice where Joe Wright represents the circular narrative way of the novel by Jane Austen. Where as the story first begin and it ends with the same idea.Where the first line of the story begins where the every single man is in the search of wife.
Q.2 Write an illustration of the Society of Jane Austen's time.
Response: At the time of the turning point of the 19th Century the novel of Pride & Prejudice was written where She used to Study at home by herself. Which was the bad in the history. Where we can see that no women's used to get study and there were illiterate community was in major form Specially girls don't used to get outside of the house and most of the women's used to do house wife's work. Where the Society was badly affected by the time of before 19th Century time where than too Jane Austen wrote first her work of novel Pride & Prejudice in the form of letters then She converted into the title First Impressions anonymously which was the great achivement bh her so these type of illustration was formed at her time in the Society.
Q.3 What if Mr. Darcy & Elizabeth never got together? what if Lydia's elopement had a different outcome?
Response: If Mr.Darcy & Elizabeth never got together than they would be in the practice of being together and would be trying their best if they wil understand each other and if they both would not be able to understand than they would live in the misunderstanding then they would not meet together. And it will be going on as it is. And one will be possible according to me that they will put their ego aside. And if not then they would not get married happily in their life. and they will be in infusion and just will be in thinking only.
In case of Lydia, there would be something else result like if Lydia have eloped with Mr. Wickham and would never come back then it would affect her all of the sisters and her all the sisters would not get never married according to the Societies thinking and all the people would start gossiping about her whole family. And her family would be living in the bad impression and would not find happiness and wil be unhappy through all over the life.

Hard Times(Charles Dicken)
Pamela(Samuel Richardson)
Thinking Activity:
This blog is a response to Pamela was present in these Contemporary time, will the story take any changes, assigned by Vaidehi Haryani mam, the Department of English, MKBU. In this blog I'm going to discuss about Pamela present in the Contemporary Story time.
Thinking Activity - Pamela or Virtue Rewarded (Samuel Richardson)
Now lets discuss the question based on thinking activity,
# If Pamela was in the Contemporary time, will the Story take any changes?
Response:
Yes, if she was there or present in these Contemporary time, as a 15 year old girl. She would be Studying in School and She would be educated and would not work as a Servant. She would work as an employee in the Private or government sector as a teacher,professor etc. And she would be very free to learn new things and make herself Strong and would be able to do anything whatever She might feels good or would think according to herself and She would not work in any other fields like Servant,Shoemaker etc. And She would be a Professional person.
And now - a - days Women's are also getting the same opportunity and same rights to work as a man do anything in a equal way as a man do same manner the women's can also do any work like teacher, Choreographer, Singer, Actor, Artist, Professor, Fashion Designer, Computer engineer, Software engineer etc.
It is said like,
"Education is the most Powerful Weapon".
So by educating people becomes so strong that no one can defeat them by any means and they would face each and every Challenge very easily. She would not get misused like in her life as Mr.B cannot misused her. And She would not accept any mischief of Mr.B and She would defeat him(Mr.B) in a very easy way.
And She would not remain good to everyone but She will act according to person's behaviour like if Mr.B will misused her and in same way she would misused which is similar to the thought of "Tit for Tat".
Conclusion:
At the end we can say that she will not remain as a virtuous. Where the good is virtued and the bad is punished which message is given in the novel Pamela by Samuel Richardson.
