Abstract

This paper contextualizes the role of literature during the current state of Covid-19 outbreak. As representation of plague has been a stable in literature across time and space, reading literature about pandemic offers important insights in dealing with the changing period. This study offers a reading of ‘The Marque of Red Death’, a short story written by Edgar Allan Poe which dramatizes the outbreak of titular plague. Poe’s narration contextualizes the horrifying aspects of plague and also criticizes the social inequality concerning the ability of different social classes to cope with pandemic. Hence, this depiction asserts that ecological problem is inseparable with social problem and racial inequality. This study is conducted under ecocritical framework which emphasizes the reorientation of human and non-human relationship through the imaginary literature. The findings suggest that the non-human entity in form of plague is depicted as a disruptive force that abolish the progress of human civilization. This dramatization explores humanity to ponder their position in the world as a reminder of their mortality. The analysis suggests that during the troubled era of Covid-19 outbreak, reading representation of plague in literature can provide an idea with how people across time and space cope with pandemic outbreak.

Abstract

This paper talks about Bhabha’s Mimicry’s idea in Orwell’s novel entitled Animal Farm. Postcolonialism theory is used to analyze the Animal Farm since the novel portrays the dynamic of animals’ lives after being freed from human colonization. Bhabha’s mimicry is utilized to demonstrate Napoleon and his pig family as the principal data that portrays animals that are imitating a human as a result of human’s colonization. The animal is known as the foe of humankind on the ranch that they live. Mimicry ideas utilized are Bhabha’s both ambivalence and term the same but not quite. Those ideas are practised to uncover the pig’s propensity and act that represents postcolonial discourse. The mimicry in Animal Farm begins with Old Major’s discourse that is contaminating all animals on the ranch with his feeling of inadequacy towards the man. It results in another form of colonization directed to the animals as the colonized.
