Abstract

This comparative analysis exploits the framework of ecocriticism to explore the themes of nature and the environment in William Wordsworth's "Tintern Abbey" and Samuel Taylor Coleridge's "Frost at Midnight." By examining the poetic techniques, imagery, and philosophical discourses employed by both poets, this article aims to shed light on how their respective works portray a deep connection and reverence for nature. The analysis delves into the shared themes of environmental consciousness, the spiritual significance of the natural world, and the role of memory in shaping one's relationship with the environment. Through a comparison of these two seminal Romantic poems, this study reveals the poets' nuanced perspectives on nature and offers insights into the broader ecological concerns of the Romantic period.

Abstract

Suresh Triveni’s Jalsa: A Film (2022) centers a tragic tale of car accident which predominantly involves two ladies; Maya, a chief journalist and Rukhsana, a cook. The film opens with a hit and run case; Aliya, the daughter of Rukhsana, hit by exhausted Maya and left her in a pool of blood. This incident integrates more characters into the already overstuffed plot; complicit cops, a trainee reporter and a cocky young son of an ambitious politician. Hence, the rarely and never simple plot continues with an intriguing story-line and elements of surprise further. Pertaining to previous, the purpose of this paper is to explore how these distinctive perspectives are convincing to one action and constitute a unified whole. In order to analyze the tightly-executed plot, this paper will utilize the concept of unity-of-plot proposed by Aristotle. In his Poetics (Chapter, VIII), Aristotle defines plot as soul of tragedy and emphasizes on plot as an artistic whole. Moreover, to testify the unity of plot, Aristotle argues that the plot should be grasped by each of its parts without distorting the meaning of the whole. Additionally, the primary intent of this study is to explore how the plot of the chosen film is executed artistically.

Abstract

Amour Propre, which is frequently interpreted as self-love or self-esteem is reflected in the intentions and deeds of the characters in literary works. This study examines Richard Matheson's short story Button, Button through the lens of Jean-Jacques Rousseau's concepts of Amour De Soi and Amour-Propre. The purpose of the study is to analyze how the characters of Norma and Arthur embody these concepts with Arthur representing Amour De Soi and Norma exemplifying corrupted Amour-Propre. Utilizing a qualitative analysis approach, the study explores the characters' actions and motivations within the narrative to uncover the implications of their respective forms of self-love. The findings reveal the dangers of allowing Amour- Propre to become excessive or corruptible as seen through Norma's relentless pursuit of material desires leading to tragic consequences. Furthermore, the study underscores the importance of maintaining a balance between self-love and consideration for others highlighting the virtues of a more balanced and self-respecting approach to life as demonstrated by Arthur's contrasting fate.

Abstract

Harmonized translation is not just a process of translation; it is a creative endeavor that transcends simple language conversion. It's a sophisticated method that artfully interweaves the original song’s melody, rhythm, and poetic essence with the target language. This results in a seamless and expressive rendition that resonates with its new audience while preserving the original's musical integrity, emotional resonance, and contextual relevance. In essence, harmonized translation is a profound way of connecting languages and cultures through the power of music, inspiring a new level of creativity in the translation process. Compared to traditional translation theories, which encompass lyrics and poems as discussed by Munday, J. (2016), harmonized translation emphasizes measurable qualities necessary for achieving what can succinctly be described as fidelity.
