Structuralism and Literary Criticism: Gerard Genette

In literary theory, structuralism is an approach to analyzing the narrative material by examining the underlying invariant structure. Garrard Genette gives the Narratology in order to understand the structure of the literature.

It consists of five parts: 1) Order 2) Frequency 3) Duration 4) Voice 5) Mood

 And here I have tried to analyze the movie.  For example, in "Haider” director vishal bharadwaj taken plot and story from Shakespeare’s play “hamlet”. But here director change the plot background, place and theme. When we see the Kenneth branagh’s hamlet starting with the statue of king hamlet. And At the end director gave very typical end all the characters are died.

 but in  haider movie  director  vishal bharadwaj is very confused about end so he do not have any end all the major charter is alive but here at the end is depends upon audience . Question is as it raised in mind
 “To be or not to be”.
 


Another example of historical serial like JANSI KI RANI form of criticism in which we can understand a work of art in context of the structure which have genre, culture and language.. As we see the genre of JANSI KI RANI serial is totally historical subject. But it also focuses current issue theme of woman empowerment. Structure of the culture is very important part of this serial.

OD3 -Education System: School in Forest

Forest school is a type of  outdoor education  in which children (or adults) visit forests/woodlands, learning personal, social and technical skills. It has been defined as "an inspirational process that offers children, young people and adults regular opportunities to achieve and develop confidence through hands-on learning in a woodland environment". Forest school is both a  pedagogy  and a physical entity, with the use often being interchanged.

Although some atheists have adopted  secular  philosophies (e.g.  secular humanism ) there is no one ideology or set of behaviors to which all atheists adhere. Atheism is a more  parsimonious  position than theism and is the position in which everyone is born; therefor...
