My Interpretation on the Old Man and Sea

    

                    

      According to me, the novella ‘’The OLD MAN and Sea’’ is a tragedy because there are two term ‘’ “Hamartia ’’ and ‘’Catharsis’’ presented in the novella suggested by Aristotle for the tragedies. 

1) Hamartia

        The term means a tragic flaw in a strong   character. The hero is a strong character but has small weakness that causes his fall .Though he was master in fishing, he made an error of judgment   that is too far. It suggest that if thinking is your power, it’s also   your downfall.

2) Kath arsis/Catharsis.

       The term means purgation of emotion .Aristotle says tragedy purifies our emotion through pity and fear. We identify us with the hero of the tragedy and us sympathies with the hero. We fear that we may not be put in the same condition in real life .In the same way, we compares our struggle for to Santiago’s struggle for big fish .It leaves one with perhaps a better understanding of the life around them.

      The story ends as a tragedy but it was a good tragedy. Like, old man’s pride leads him to the destruction of his quarry also helps him to achieve the respect of the village people and secure his relationship with the boy. So the spirit of tragedy is optimistic rather than pessimistic.

‘’The Old Man AND the Sea’’ is also an experiment with time. Three of times are shown in the novella. 1)The Clock Time

      It measures the present events .The time When Santiago goes to catch the fish and his relationship with the boy.

2) Psychological Time.

       It shows a journey from youth to age. In the novella, Santiago remembers hand-wrestling contest. Santiago is still “dreaming about the lions” the same once he saw in Africa when he was younger and would like to see again. By the use of stream of consciousness, Hemingway   shows the psychological time.

3) The Historical Time.

       The historic time is shown in relation to nation wild and world wild event. Hemingway has also given some historical references such Cuban culture. Because of it’s long Spanish heritage. However, Cuba was still dominated by catholic culture influence. The effect of circumstance is seen much time in the novella. When Santiago says” I am not religious but I will say ten our father and ten hail mars that I should catch this fish and I promise to make a pilgrimage to the virgin of cobra if I catch him.”

4) Conclusion.

The novella is an experimental one rather than the traditional one. So it could be identified as the modern novella.  

How far an institute should be rated as better or worse from the perspectives of its placement cell

How far institute will be judged by campus recruitment   

  I think   campus recruitment forms a bridge between academician industrialists. Due to campus recruitment ,students are placed into major campanies.Campus recruitment boosts the morals of students motivates to pursue studies more confidently.By the campus recruitment ,all the students get equal opportunity and their application will not lost in black hole.One of the advantage is that students get options to load their resumes together  under their college’s name.I think any institute will be judged by campus recruitment.Campus recruitment is what most of the students will be looking forward too.

IMPORTANCE OF CAMPUS PLACEMENT

What is Literature?

                         The word literature is used to different ways. It simply means anything that is written or spoken material. Literature  supplying  information  about  different  things  but  literature written  in  the  form  of  a novel  or  a  play  or a  poetry  is  called  serious  literature .The  literature  like  advertisement, journalism  are  not  serious  literature  .They   lack  the  quality  of  permanent.

         Literature  is  writing  which  express  and  communicates  thoughts  feelings  and  attitudes  towards  life. The  novelist  or  a  poet  wants  that his  work  should  be  read  even  after  years  permanent. Some  writer  talk  about  disposal  art  but  most  of  them  want  immortality .   For example, Shakespeare in his sonnet writes.     

 ‘’       So long as man breath or eyes can see,

       So    long   lives   this   and   this gives life to   thee’’

        To  define  literature  is  a  difficult  thing  but  it  is  not  difficult  to  recognize  literature   

1)  LITERATURE    IS  CRITICISM  OF  A  LIFE

                The  write  should  communicate  same  feelings  or  idea  which  we  can  recognized  as  either  actual  or  potentially. Apart  from  emotion  which  even  if  we  have  not  actually  felt  it. We  recognize  as  the  kind  of  thing  we   would  feel  in  certain  circumstances.

2) Literature should be true to life

                    Literature  should  always  concern  with  thoughts  and  feeling  which  we  all  recognized  as  belonging  to  real  life .For  example,  Holbrook’  poem  ‘’FINGER’S  IN  THE  DOOR’’.In  this  poem ,  the  feeling  of  separation  is  expressed.

3) Literature will have   same these qualities.

                1) Psychological   Truth

                   2) Craftsmanship                                                                                                                                    

                     3) Originality

                     4) Consciousness of moral values

                            In short, literature is a permanent expression. In  other words, of  some  thought  or  feeling  or  idea  about  life  and  world.
