 12.What do you think about this image? 

                I think that what is said in this image is right. Harry Potter books do argue for intolerance and do plea to end bigotry. We can say that from the very choice of making hero a half blood. This suggest that division on the name of race or blood does not matter.  Dobby as free house elf also speaks to end the class discrimination. Further, yes, this can be the reason why people don’t like the books. But as the image says that it pass on very healthy message which younger generation should know. People always believe that to question authority is disloyalty towards authority. Well no, it is not disloyalty, in first place; and in second place, in democracy people have right to ask question to authority and to know things which authority is doing. So asking question is not disloyalty. We live in post – truth era, so to doubt or to not believe without evidence should be the habit of people. We see that in Harry Potter also how Rita Skater manipulate the truth. So we should also not believe what authority or media says to us.

He was the son of a poor shoemaker, but through the kindness of a patron was educated at the town grammar school and then at Cambridge. When he came to London, his soul was surging with the ideals of the Renaissance, which later found expression in Faustus ,the scholar longing for unlimited knowledge and for power to grasp the universe.                            In 1587,when but twenty

Respected sir,            To evaluate my assignment click here  Name:-Heerva Bhatt Course :-M.A. (sem.1) Paper no.:- 3(Literary theory and                         Criticism ) Roll no.:- 14 Email Id :-heervabhatt96@gmail.com  Submitted to :-Smt.S.B.Gardi Department of English, Bhavnagar.  Introduction :-                            Tragedy  (Greek word)is a former of drama based on human suffering that invokes an accompanying catharsis or pleasure in audiences. While many cultures have developed forms that provoke this paradoxical response, the term tragedy often refers to a specific tradition of drama that has played a unique and important role historically in the self-definition of Western civilisation.That tradition has been multiple and discontinuous,yet the term has often been used to invoke a powerful effect of cultural identity and historical continuity - "The Greeks and the Elizabethans, in one cultural form;Hellens and Christians, in a common activity."

His works:- □ The Cow of the Barricades and other stories (1947) □   Kanthapura  (1938) □  The Serpent an the Rope (1960) □ The Cat and Shakespeare  (1965)                       Raja Rao'
