Short stories have their origins in oral storytelling traditions from ancient epics like Homer's works. Over time, short sections of stories told in verse evolved into short prose narratives that could be told in a single sitting. Some of the earliest published short stories appeared between 1790-1810, though true short story collections emerged between 1810-1830. During the 19th century, the growth of magazines and journals fueled demand for short fiction of 3,000-15,000 words. Many famous authors contributed short stories during this time, helping establish the short story as a popular genre. The 20th century saw continued experimentation and growth in the short story form across various regions and time periods.

The growth of magazines and journals in the late 19th century increased demand for short fiction of 3,000 to 15,000 words. Famous 20th century American short story authors include J.D. Salinger, Flannery O'Connor, and Raymond Carver.

Charles Dickens' 1850 novel David Copperfield is considered a classic Bildungsroman that follows the protagonist's journey from childhood to maturity. Through David's experiences and relationships with various characters, the novel explores themes of disciplining one's emotions and finding one's place in society. While some characters like Agnes Wickfield demonstrate maturity and wisdom, others like Uriah Heep and James Steerforth lack discipline. David develops a disciplined heart through his personal growth over the course of the story. The novel was praised by critics like Tolstoy and influenced many other authors.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

SHORT STORY FROM HISTORY TO ELEMENTS
1.
2. Short stories date back to oral story-telling traditions
which originally produced epics such
as Homer's Iliad and Odyssey. Oral narratives were
often told in the form of rhyming or rhythmic verse,
often including recurring sections or, in the case of
Homer, Homeric epithets. Such stylistic devices often
acted as mnemonics for easier recall, rendition and
adaptation of the story. Short sections of verse might
focus on individual narratives that could be told at one
sitting. The overall arc of the tale would emerge only
through the telling of multiple such sections.
3. There are early examples of short stories published separately between 1790
and 1810, but the first true collections of short stories appeared between 1810
and 1830 in several countries around the same period.
The first short stories in the United Kingdom were gothic tales like Richard
Cumberland's "remarkable narrative" "The Poisoner of Montremos"
(1791). Great novelists like Sir Walter Scott and Charles Dickens also wrote
some short stories.
One of the earliest short stories in the United States was Charles Brockden
Brown's "Somnambulism" from 1805. Washington Irving wrote mysterious
tales including "Rip van Winkle" (1819) and "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow"
(1820). Nathaniel Hawthorne published the first part of his Twice-Told Tales in
1837. Edgar Allan Poe wrote his tales of mystery and imagination between 1842
and 1859. Classic stories are "The Fall of the House of Usher", "The Tell-Tale
Heart", "The Cask of Amontillado", "The Pit and the Pendulum", and the
first detective story, "The Murders in the Rue Morgue". In "The Philosophy of
Composition" (1846) Poe argued that a literary work should be short enough
for a reader to finish in one sitting.
4. In the latter 19th century, the growth of print magazines
and journals created a strong demand for short fiction of
between 3,000 and 15,000 words.
In the United Kingdom Thomas Hardy wrote dozens of
short stories, including "The Three Strangers" (1883), "A
Mere Interlude" (1885) and "Barbara of the House of Grebe"
(1890). Rudyard Kipling published short story collections
for grown-ups, e.g. Plain Tales from the Hills(1888), as well
as for children, e.g. The Jungle Book (1894). In 1892 Arthur
Conan Doyle brought the detective story to a new height
with The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. H. G. Wells wrote
his first science fiction stories in the 1880s. One of his best
known "The Country of the Blind" (1904).
5. In the United Kingdom periodicals like The Strand Magazine, The
Sketch, Harper's Magazine and Story-Teller contributed to the
popularity of the short story. Hector Hugh Munro (1870–1916), also
known by his pen name of Saki, wrote satirical short stories
about Edwardian England.W. Somerset Maugham, who wrote over a
hundred short stories, was one of the most popular authors of his
time. P. G. Wodehouse published his first collection of comical stories
about butler Jeeves in 1917. Lots of detective stories were written by G.
K. Chesterton, Agatha Christie en Dorothy L. Sayers. Short stories
by Virginia Woolf are Kew Gardens (1919) and Solid Objects, about a
politician with mental problems. Graham Greene wrote his Twenty-
One Stories between 1929 and 1954. A specialist of the short story
was V. S. Pritchett, whose first collection appeared in 1932. Arthur C.
Clarke published his first science fiction story, Travel by Wire! in 1937.
In Ireland James Joyce published his short story collection Dubliners in
1914. These stories, written in a more accessible style than his later
novels, are based on careful observation of the inhabitants of his birth
city.
6. The period following World War II saw a great flowering of
literary short fiction in the United States. The New
Yorker continued to publish the works of the form’s leading
mid-century practitioners, including Shirley Jackson, whose
story, The Lottery, published in 1948, elicited the strongest
response in the magazine’s history to that time. Other
frequent contributors during the last 1940s included John
Cheever, John Steinbeck, Jean Stafford, and Eudora Welty. J.
D. Salinger's Nine Stories (1953) experimented with point of
view and voice, while Flannery O’Connor's story A Good
Man is Hard to Find (1955) reinvigorated the Southern
Gothic style. Cultural and social identity played a
considerable role in much of the short fiction of the
1960s. Philip Roth and Grace Paley cultivated distinctive
Jewish-American voices.
7. Tillie Olsen’s I Stand Here Ironing (1961) adopted a
consciously feminist perspective. James Baldwin’s
collection Going to Meet the Man (1965) told stories of
African-American life. Frank O’Connor’s The Lonely Voice,
an exploration of the short story, appeared in 1963. Wallace
Stegner's short stories are primarily set in the American
West. Stephen King published a lot of short stories in
men's magazines in the 1960s and after. The 1970s saw the
rise of the post-modern short story in the works of Donald
Barthelme and John Barth. Traditionalists including John
Updike and Joyce Carol Oates maintained significant
influence on the form. Minimalism gained widespread
influence in the 1980s, most notably in the work
of Raymond Carver and Ann Beattie.
10. Plot is what happens and how
it happens in a narrative. A
narrative is any work that tells
a story, such as a short story, a
novel, a drama, or a narrative
poem.
11. Exposition – event that gives rise to conflict
(opening situation)
Rising Action- events that complicate or intensify
the central conflict (rising action)

Foreshadowing- hint or clue about what will happen in
story
Flashback- interrupts the normal sequence of events
to tell about something that happened in the past
Surprise Ending- conclusion that reader does not

14. Conflict is a struggle between opposing forces
Every plot must contain some kind of conflict
Stories can have more than one conflict
Conflicts can be external or internal
External conflict- outside force may be person, group,
animal, nature, or a nonhuman obstacle
Internal conflict- takes place in a character’s mind
15. CONFLICT BASES

20. A writer reveals what a character is like and how the
character changes throughout the story.
Two primary methods of characterization:
Direct- writer tells what the character is like
Indirect- writer shows what a character is like by
describing what the character looks like, by telling
what the character says and does, and by what other
characters say about and do in response to the
character.
21. …And I don’t play the dozens or believe
in standing around with somebody in my face
doing a lot of talking. I much rather just
knock you down and take my chances even if
I’m a little girl with skinny arms and a
squeaky voice, which is how I got the name
Squeaky.

29. “Every man needs to feel allegiance to
his native country, whether he always
appreciates that country or not.”
From “A Man Without a Country” by Edward Hale
pg. 185 in Prentice Hall Literature book
30. In the objective point of view, the writer
tells what happens without stating more
than can be inferred from the story's
action and dialogue.
The narrator never tells the reader
anything about what the characters thinks
or feels, and remains a detached observer
of the story.
31. A.) Third Person Point – of – View
a. Omniscient
b. Objective
c. Central Intelligence
32. The word omniscient is derived from Latin and consists of two
parts: Omni-which simply means “all” or “everywhere”
and scire which means “to know”. This word is often used to refer
to God’s ability to know everything, even that which is hidden
from humans.
If you use this point of view of a short story, you take that
elevated position of knowing everything. Therefore, when you tell
the story, you even grant the reader access to the characters’
thoughts and other things that the characters cannot discern. You
are not limited by your characters’ inabilities or lack of
discernment.
33. To be objective means to be unbiased
and unaffected by personal thoughts or
opinions. Thus, in this point of view of
a short story, the writer presents facts and
events as they happen and does not
concentrate on a character’s thoughts or
opinions.
34. The story is told from the view of one
character i.e. the main character. We
see the setting through his eyes. We see
and note the characters in the manner
that he sees them. We feel his fears and
anxieties. Indeed, we have full access
to his thoughts, emotions and
imaginations.
35. B.) First Person Point – of – View
a. Interior Monologue
b. Dramatic Dialogue
36. You as the author,
concentrates on the
character’s thoughts… As the
name suggest, the character
speaks all to herself. The
story occurs all in her mind.
37. In this point of view of a short story,
the character speaks to others. This
is the most common type of first
person point-of-view of a short story.
It usually results in a simple style.
