Modernism was an artistic movement that arose in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as a reaction against traditional forms of art and literature. The movement reflected broader societal transformations brought about by industrialization, urbanization, new technologies, and World Wars. Modernist artists and writers sought to depart from traditional forms they viewed as outdated in order to develop new forms that captured the modern experience. Some key influences on Modernism included theories of relativity, psychoanalysis, and Darwin's theory of evolution, which challenged long-held beliefs. Modernism had a significant impact on fields like painting, music, dance, philosophy, psychology, architecture, science, sculpture, and literature.Romanticism/ Romantic Poetry/ The Romantic Movement

The poem questions whether liberators are truly liberators or just new dictators. In the first stanza, the poet notes that those claiming to free a people actually oppress them, as shown in the second stanza where liberators deliver people "from the hoof of the devil" into "the claw of the vulture." The final stanza acknowledges the difficulty in distinguishing liberators from dictators when both commit violence against innocents. Overall, the poem expresses skepticism about those who overthrow existing authorities, suggesting the new rulers may be no better than the old.Poem complet ed

The document summarizes some key characteristics of the modern age. It began with a sense of disillusionment with Victorian attitudes of certainty, conservatism, and objective truth. Modernism questioned established beliefs and nothing was considered fixed or final. Some defining events included the rise of feminism, new nations emerging, technological advancements, and both World Wars. Modernist thought focused on renewal in art and challenged ideas that man was primarily spiritual or that industrial problems threatened European peace. Literature of this time also reflected new psychological theories, a focus on social problems over individual perfection, and the internationalization of issues beyond just England.Brief_History_of_American_Literature by Dr. Dhumal

FEMINIST CRITICISM.pptxPukarNeupane5

Feminist criticism has a long history dating back to Ancient Greece. While there were many women writers and critics throughout history, their contributions have often not been recognized in male-dominated literary discourse. Feminist theory rejects the idea of objectivity and neutrality, arguing that thought and experience are shaped by social and physical factors like gender. Feminists also oppose the use of male language by women writers and criticize the traditional division of concepts into binary opposites like man/woman. Modern feminist criticism addresses issues like rewriting literary history to include women, developing separate female traditions, and understanding the role of gender in both writing and criticism.IDEALISM.pptx
