Romanticism and William Wordsworth by Romance Group Monir Hossen
William Wordsworth was a prominent English Romantic poet known for his love of nature and emphasis on nature as a moral teacher. This presentation provides biographical information about Wordsworth and discusses key aspects of his work, including his views that nature has a healing power, a living personality, and that it can provide profound thoughts. It also summarizes his poem "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud", highlighting how the beauty of daffodils overcomes the poet's loneliness and provides a strong sense of joy through their lively movement.
Wordsworth believed poetry arises from powerful emotions that are recollected later in a state of tranquility. He argued poetry should use everyday language that ordinary people use rather than ornate poetic language. He wanted poetry to reflect the human experience and relationship with nature. Poetry should describe simple subjects and situations that are easily understood and remembered. A poet is an ordinary person who experiences strong feelings and can vividly recall those emotions later to convey them to others through their writing.

Virginia Woolf was an influential English writer and feminist in the early 20th century. She was born into a wealthy family with a large library that fostered her love of reading and writing. Woolf suffered from depression throughout her life, which some attribute to abuse by two of her step-brothers as a child. She wrote several famous modernist novels that explored feminist themes and consciousness, such as Mrs. Dalloway and To the Lighthouse. Woolf also had a profound interest in women's rights. She ultimately took her own life in 1941 due to her lifelong struggle with mental illness.

Northrop Frye was a Canadian literary theorist and critic known for his theory of archetypes in literature. He proposed that recurring patterns, symbols, and themes (archetypes) exist across works of literature that fall into categories corresponding to the four seasons - spring, summer, fall, winter. Frye's purpose was to connect literature through these shared archetypes in order to analyze how individual works both conform to and stray from archetypal patterns. Examples provided are the Gujarati poem "Mor Bani Thangat Kare" and the English poem "Four Seasons", as well as the film "Jagte Raho", which potentially demonstrate archetypes.

Muneeza Shamsie and Tariq Rehman have significantly contributed to Pakistani literature through compiling anthologies of Pakistani authors and researching the history and development of Pakistani English literature. Both continue to advocate for democratic values and social justice through their literary works and research.
Wordsworth outlines three principles in the preface to the Lyrical Ballads: 1) the poetry concerns nature and country life, 2) it emphasizes poetry as an art form to enlighten readers on human emotion, and 3) clean, simple lines best capture the imagination rather than overly complicated styles. He chose rustic subjects and language to find a "plainer and more emphatic" way to communicate passions. Poetry combines feeling and thought as a spontaneous overflow of powerful emotions and ideas. The poet's duty is to produce pleasure and enlarge human capability. Wordsworth defends his choice of common subjects and language to better understand essential human passions.
The Lucy poems are a series of 5 poems written by William Wordsworth between 1798 and 1801 about his longing for his friend Coleridge and exploring the poet's love for an idealized character named Lucy. Lucy may have been based on a real woman or been imaginary, as Wordsworth never revealed her origins. The poems examine themes of beauty, nature, love, longing and death. They were influential as part of the English Romantic movement and an early major publication for Wordsworth, though he did not intend for them to be read as a group.
Virginia Woolf was a pioneering modernist author born in 1882 who experimented with stream-of-consciousness techniques in her novels and essays. In her influential 1929 essay A Room of One's Own, Woolf argues that women writers throughout history lacked the financial means and independence afforded to male writers, hindering their ability to develop and realize their full artistic potential. She speculates about how a hypothetical extremely gifted sister of Shakespeare named Judith may have been prevented from writing due to societal constraints facing women. The essay also examines how factors like poverty can impact an author's work and the relationship between anger over one's situation and the creative process.

It also analyzes Coleridge's concept of primary imagination as the living power that mimics divine creation and shapes perception, as well as his description of the imagination's "esemplastic" ability to shape disparate ideas into one coherent whole.
Dryden compares French and English plays, discussing the differing views of Lisideius and Neander. Lisideius favors French plays for following rules like the unities of time, place and action, using well-known stories, and having poetic justice. However, Neander argues that English plays are superior as they reject such rigid rules, tell stories as they are, include sub-plots and multiple characters, and provide more entertainment and a "lively imitation of nature".

P - 7 - Concept of Inductive and Deductive method in Archetypal Criticismhiteshparmar201315
This document discusses inductive and deductive methods in archetypal criticism. It provides examples of how each method can be used to analyze Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens. The inductive method proceeds from specific examples in the text to draw general conclusions, such as describing Oliver Twist as a "dark novel" based on its religious conflicts, class conflicts, victimization of women, and depiction of child labor. The deductive method proceeds from general archetypes to specific examples, such as analyzing the character Fagin as a villain based on his pickpocketing, ugly looks, darkness, brutality, cruelty, and temptation of money. In conclusion, the document states that literature can be interpreted in many ways using these methods
Realism was a literary movement between 1865-1900 that focused on depicting ordinary people and events realistically. It emerged as a reaction against Romanticism and emphasized truth and depictions of everyday life and society. Realist authors like Mark Twain, William Dean Howells, and Kate Chopin wrote about common people and contemporary social issues in a natural style. The development of photography also supported Realism by allowing very realistic depictions of reality.
Shelley was a revolutionary poet who was inspired by the ideals of the French Revolution and Romanticism. He dreamed of creating a new and ideal society without evil, suffering or injustice, ruled by reason, liberty and equality. Through his poetry, Shelley sought to spread these revolutionary ideas and ideals to the world in order to transform and renew society.
The document summarizes some key characteristics of the modern age. It began with a sense of disillusionment with Victorian attitudes of certainty, conservatism, and objective truth. Modernism questioned established beliefs and nothing was considered fixed or final. Some defining events included the rise of feminism, new nations emerging, technological advancements, and both World Wars. Modernist thought focused on renewal in art and challenged ideas that man was primarily spiritual or that industrial problems threatened European peace. Literature of this time also reflected new psychological theories, a focus on social problems over individual perfection, and the internationalization of issues beyond just England.

In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views.
