MAN BEHIND THE BOOK
What does it mean? It is a baffling question. “ man behind the book” is
about literature - means we should observe the writer’s style,
personality, and beyond the words of his life. In simple language, we
can say a reflection of the author’s personality.
The man behind the book as we all know the book is a storehouse of
guidance, intelligence, knowledge of wisdom a picture of life, and its
main problem is to reflect the personality of its author.
The book is the “lifeblood of a master spirit. fragrance and treasured upon
purpose to a life beyond life”. We can easily trace the growth of his mind
what he thinks how he thinks, the changes in his temper his emotions his
anger, and thought, his works are no longer to be disassociated from his
personality.
• Here are the two perspectives of the
man behind the book.
1. Personality or subjectivity in the man behind the book.
2. Impersonality or objectivity in the man behind the book.
• Personality or subjectivity in the man
behind the book:
• Subjectivity means the personal experience of the writer rather
we talking about their personal life or their work experience. in
their personal life mostly they are nature lovers, classics or deeply
fall in love with someone. Or maybe they are far away from their
families. Writers portray their image in the mind of readers.
• background of knowledge. If we talk about nature writer who
loves to write about nature they had a strong grip on nature just
because of traveling and visiting different places around the
world. Some are classics their long is seeing is believing.
• They exist in someone’s mind rather than the external world.
• The author’s personality is a living product with shows intellectual
spiritual and artistic growth.
3. Impersonality or objectivity in the
man behind the book:
• The writer surrenders himself to something more valuable than
himself.
• the author has no personality of his own he completely covers his
personality in another character of his book.
• His experience his feelings of the subject of his work.
• They realize that the past exists in the present.
The great writer should have the power to arouse in the minds
of his reader the experience he considers of value. a writer
communicates his audience in his writing he knows how to
convey things like traditions, emotions to his audience because
of his words.
Every writer carries the power of awaking impressions with
them whether they wrote fiction nonfiction, classic, or drama
they used powerful words in their books. The man behind the
book is just a writer.
