This document discusses the portrayal of Muslims in Bollywood films from an Orientalist perspective. It begins with an introduction to Edward Said's book Orientalism, which defined differences between East and West and challenged stereotypes. The document then discusses how modern Orientalism and Western views have negatively portrayed Islam and Muslims. It argues that some Bollywood films, like Padmaavat, Lamhaa, Kalank, and Raees, have similarly portrayed Muslim families and communities in a stereotypical and negative light. The conclusion states that Bollywood movies often depict Muslims in India and worldwide in a more negative rather than positive manner, which can spread and reinforce stereotypes.

William golding-biograhy
William Golding switched his college major from science to English literature after two years, marking a change from his father's rationalism. His experience in World War II, where he served in the Navy and witnessed violence and the human condition, most influenced his writing of Lord of the Flies. After the war, Golding returned to teaching but wrote three rejected novels before getting the idea for Lord of the Flies from a conversation with his wife about letting characters "behave as they really would" in a children's story. Lord of the Flies made him famous, though he continued writing and experienced periods of both fame and obscurity over his career until winning the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1983.

The fluid identity of authors in social media
Getting published has never been an easier work for even the nobel laureates in literature. Then getting acclaimed for their literary piece has always been a never ending war. Mess media has never been unbiased. In a world where the greatest literary works and best seller master pieces got rejected over and over, where the people who provides the most prestigious prizes for literature nominates and awards journalists for writing diaries on the decay of communism over Soviet Union, where great thinkers like Noam Chomsky faces the popular media ban for revealing the way they are treating things which is very Euro-America centric, people who are dreaming of becoming another literary mastermind can surely be considered as one of the most difficult works.
Keeping these issues in our mind as our context, we look critically upon the history and rise of online blog spots. Because, with a white eye, we can easily see that the power of controlling the voice of the authors and thinkers is slowly drifting from the hands of media mughals. These online spaces are providing the content creator the opportunity to express their thoughts more or less freely. The filter is much less than those of in print media and popular media. In this age of hyper connectivity, when it is considered as almost suspicious not having a social media account, when each and everyone is always on standby to get interrupted, building up an audience is not an issue as well.
Can we really come to this conclusion that at least, through the fluid identity that an author carry on line, the power of expressing thoughts freely has equally been distributed among the content creator and publisher/editor? Are the social networking sites for writers going to replace the need of publication houses or are they just electric sharks that devour everything and keep no lingering impact over the readers? Having Foucault’s ideas regarding power distribution as its theoretical base, and the history of rejection of famous authors and ban of media over thinkers like Chomsky

Events like the Kent State massacre and the Civil Rights movement further fueled anti-war and anti-establishment sentiments that permeated 1960s culture.

This paper analyzes Ernest Hemingway's novel "The Old Man and the Sea" from an anti-reading perspective.
