UNIVERSITY WITS

  It belongs to the Elizabethan period or 16 th century which is a period of creative revival in th e history of English literature. In the English literature of the renaissance, drama is its chief glory. Drama therefore is the most important subject for the study at this time, it is the most difficult because the diversity of the plays make classification difficult while the lack of sufficient dates makes it almost difficult to obtain a clear outline of the evolution of the theatrical world. During the middle English period theatre was confined with the church. The interludes were a form of drama which finally paved the way for the Elizabethan plays by the University Wits. The Pre Shakespearean -Dramatist were known as the university wits owing to their association with the university of Cambridge and oxford. They were romantic in their approach and represented the true spirit of renaissance. The constellations of university wits are John Lyly, George Peele, Robert Greene, T...

EARLY INDIAN POETRY

  Indian English Poetry is not just a branch of Indian literature in English. It is now an essential part of Indian- English literature. In fact, it primarily defines Indo-Anglian literature in the sense that in its birth, Indian-writing in English came to the force with a global recognition. Like American poetry, Indian English poetry is highly distinctive in various aspects.   It is not a product that sprang into being in a span of a few years or a few decades.   It is a well-furnished product, thoroughly polished from its raw state into its present having undergone an evolution for more than a century since its inception in the early nineteenth century.   India is a multicultural, multi-lingual and multi-racial country and its varied regions, cultures, races, languages and religions contributed amply to the enrichment of Indian-English poetry. In the early nineteenth century, the poets were severely assaulted and mercilessly ridiculed for their so called anti-na...

  A sonnet is a lyric poem consisting of a single stanza of fourteen iambic pentameter lines linked by an intricate rhyme scheme. There are two major patterns of rhyme in sonnets written in the English language: The Italian or Petrarchan sonnet (named after fourteenth-century Italian poet Petrarch) falls into two main parts: an octave (eight lines) rhyming abbaabba followed by a sestet (six lines) rhyming cdecde or some variant, such as cdccdc. Petrarch’s sonnet was first imitated in England, by Thomas Wyatt in the early sixteenth century. The earl of surrey and other English experimenters in the sixteenth century also developed a stanza form called the English sonnet, or else the Shakespearean sonnet. This sonnet falls into three quatrains and a concluding couplet: abab cdcd efef gg. After Wyatt and surrey, the sonnet was neglected for a number of years tills sir Philip Sidney resuscitated the dying form by composing one hundred and eight sonnets and eleven songs all put in as...

Life is like a candle that can be brightened up by lighting it in the darkest phase of our life. It is that fire which blows off when a storm passes but the matchstick and the matchbox is in our hand to lit the fire again in the dark . It is that light that acts as a torch in the midst of darkness to lead the way it shows. We ourselves is like a candle which remains stiff but when burnt melts down but knows to  burn like a fire till the candle completely finishes just as our life leading to death. When the paraffin falls down from the candle it falls in a liquid state but then it hardens for the candle to stay still , same is our tears which falls but makes us strong in the difficult ladders of life . If the paraffin falls in our hand it pains so is the tears , when it falls our heart pierce in pain but the one difference is that it is our emotional pain but what makes us survive is how we stand strong to stand up and face the turmoils of our life and make that tear ou...
