Romantic period in English Literature. Focuses on romantic poets like Blake, Wordsworth, Colridge, Shelly, Keats, Byron. Includes a brief history and meaning of Romanticism.
This presentation is about the introduction of the 19th century literature and some of the prominent authors in the period including William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Percy Byshhe Shelley, Ralph Waldo Emerson and Matthew Arnolds.
English literature is the literature written in the English language, including literature composed in English by writers not necessarily from England; for example, Robert Burns was Scottish, James Joyce was Irish, Joseph Conrad was Polish, Dylan Thomas was Welsh, Edgar Allan Poe was American, J. R. R. Tolkien was born in the Orange Free State, V.S. Naipaul was born in Trinidad, and Vladimir Nabokov was Russian, but all are considered important writers in the history of English literature. In other words, English literature is as diverse as the varieties and dialects of English spoken around the world. In academia, the term often labels departments and programmes practising English studies in secondary and tertiary educational systems. Despite the variety of authors of English literature, the works of William Shakespeare remain paramount throughout the English-speaking world.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

5. What is Symbolism?
• In the broadest sense a symbol is anything which signifies
something; in this sense all words are symbols.
• In discussing literature, however, the term "symbol" is applied
only to a word or phrase that signifies an object or event
which in its turn signifies something, or has a range of
reference, beyond itself.
6. What is Symbolism?
• In simple way, can say that symbol is something which can
show some idea, thought, image, in one word or design. If
only symbol can show, reader can understand whole idea of
that concept.
10. Modernist Literature and
Symbolism
• The Modern Period, in the decades after World War I, was a
notable era of symbolism in literature.
• The general association of a Peacock with pride and of an
Eagle with heroic endeavor,
• The Rising sun with birth of something good.
• The Setting sun with death, or surrender or failure.
11. Modernist Literature and
Symbolism
પર્વત ને નામે પથ્થર, દરરયાને ને નામે પાણી,
‘ઈર્ાવદ’ આપણે તો, ઈશ્વરને નામે ર્ાણી.
This name ‘ઈર્ાવદ’` is shows the name of writer. That writer is
Chinu Modi.

13. • Symbolism in Virginia Wollf’s ‘To The Lighthouse’
Lighthouse: Titular Significance
Lily’s Painting
Ramsay’s Summer House
The Boar’s Skull
Rose’s arrangement of the grapes and pears
The Sea, the Storms, the rock, reefs and shallow
water
14. Lighthouse: Titular Significance
• The lighthouse is stand
alone on a rock with the
huge construction.
• That light symbolized the
ray of goodness.
• It is symbolized like truth
triumph over darkness.
• Different critic has
explained this symbol in a
different ways. (See .doc)
15. Lily’s Painting
• Symbolizes woman’s
struggle in patriarchal
society.
• Against gender convention:
“Women can’t paint or
write”.
• . The process of Lily’s
painting throughout the
novel can be seen as not
only a symbol of the artistic
dilemma faced by the
modern artist, but specially
o a female artist.
16. Ramsay’s Summer House
• Against gender convention:
“Women can’t paint or
write”.
• “Time Passes” section
17. The Boar’s Skull
• The presence of the skull
acts as a disturbing
reminder that death is
always at hand.
• Symbolizes transient nature
of art and life.
18. Rose’s arrangement of the grapes
and pears (The Fruit Basket)
• The basket testifies both to
the “frozen” quality of
beauty that Lily describes
and to beauty’s seductive
and soothing quality.
• The absence of fruit basket
in 3rd part, signifies the
transitory nature of beauty,
art and truth.
19. The Sea, the Storms, the rock, reefs
and shallow water
The Sea
• The Sea shows the
instability of time and life.
20. The Storms
• Storms consist of both wind
(air) and rain (water). And as
air is the element representing
the mind, and water is the
element representing the
emotions, storms symbolize
agitated thoughts and
emotions. Metaphorically,
storms are our Inner Demons
which torment both our mind
and our Subconscious.
21. The Rock
• The rock show the life is too
hard to life. It gives suffer,
as Mrs. Ramsays survived
her life. The rocks, reefs and
shallow water symbolized
the final danger and
miseries .
• Just as the saying. “its
always seems always
darkest before the dawn”
22. Reefs Shallow Water
•These symbols are showing certainty of life. The rock show the
life is too hard to life. It gives suffer.
23. Conclusion
• While finding symbols in the novel, it is still a
subject of debates. Still critics are interpreting the
symbols in different ways. To The Lighthouse is a
masterpiece of construction through symbolism. It
is an organic whole.
