Analysis Of Kamala Das 's Projection Of Self Essay

The aim of this essay is to present the different ways E.E. Cummings and Pablo Neruda in their poems “It May Not Always Be So” and “Always” respectively deal with the issue of love affairs. It will also seek to examine the similarities and differences in the poetic devices they use, and in the way the idea of prospective change, namely the possibility of unfaithfulness in the first, and the past of the speaker’s lover in the second poem is encountered by each speaker. The two poets have their speakers to express their feelings addressing the women they love in order to emphasize the theme of the poems, which they perceive in two utterly different ways: cummings’s speaker views the end of his

“They wept together, for the things they now knew.”(104) The last sentence of the first story in Interpreter of Maladies, reveals the cruelty of the elapsed romance in a marriage. In the two collections, A Temporary Matter and The Third and Final Continent, Jhumpa Lahiri demonstrates that a marriage can be either uplifting or discouraging depends on the mindset held by the couple and the strength of human bonding. Lahiri emphasizes the significance of mindset and human bondings through the ending of the two stories. The endings of the two stories are polar opposite : In A Temporary Matter, Shukumar and Shobha weeps for the termination of their relationship; The Third and Final Continent, by contrast, the protagonist(MIT) enjoys a fairytale-like

Mr. Kapasi found a growing affection for Mrs. Das when she expressed that his job translating for patients, which he thought of as a sign of his failings, was actually romantic to her. Mrs. Das began as an inattentive passenger in his tour to the Sun Temple who paid little attention to her kids, husband, and sights around her. She and Mr. Kapasi warmed up to each other while discussing Mr. Kapasi’s other job and tourist attractions. Mr. Kapasi was flattered by this woman who he deemed attractive and in an ill-suited marriage. Because of the new-found intoxication with this women who showed genuine interest in him, he even began to doubt his own marriage with his thoughts, “He wondered if Mr. and Mrs. Das were a bad match, just as he and his wife were,” (Lahiri 53). Both Mr. Kapasi and Miranda began to enter into controversy with their new relationships with partners who made them feel cherished while staying oblivious to other concerning factors in the growing relationships.

Sacrificed the truth, beauty and the right to think, happiness and comfort is just indulgent, it is the discomfort brought by the misery, responsibility and the bonding give us the weight of life. The world is full of people who try hard to gain happiness, and we all have at least one time the idea of living in a perfect world, a world without pain, without misery, without getting old and without cancers. We always ignored the importance and the beauty of uncomfortableness, just as a quote in this book said, “Stability isn’t nearly so spectacular as instability. And being contented has none of the glamour of a good fight against misfortune, none of the picturesqueness of a struggle with temptation, or a fatal overthrow by passion or doubt. Happiness is never grand”. After read this book, I started to be more objective at those bad things I used to hate, to understand the significance of art and to be grateful to this imperfect world we are

The poem relates the problem of decision-making that affects lives of individuals. The poet does not seem to regret the choice that he has made.  But, certainly he feels lonely. When there are several opportunities available, it often becomes difficult to make the right choice.  But, once a choice has been made one has to move ahead without turning back.  Determination and hope lead a person through difficult times.  The future is unpredictable.  With relentless pursuit and faith in oneself, anything can be achieved.

The use of symbolism and imagery is beautifully orchestrated in a magnificent dance of emotion that is resonated throughout the poem. The two main ideas that are keen to resurface are that of personal growth and freedom. Furthermore, at first glimpse this can be seen as a simple poem about a women’s struggle with her counterpart. However, this meaning can be interpreted more profoundly than just the causality of a bad relationship.

In Jhumpa Lahiri’s ‘Interpreter of Maladies’ Mr. Kapasi , the main character, seems to be a person with mixed feelings. He does not seem to have fixed stand neither in his job nor on his thoughts. His thoughts and experience are structured by the strict cultural society of India. His hidden wants and desires suppressed by the community rules are looking for way to come out. The consequence is his changing thoughts and desires which at different parts of the story appear differently and brings

Before taking this course my writing styles and habits were very different. I was the typical procrastinator because I would wait until the night before a paper was due to start it. This did not allow me enough time to properly proofread everything, which resulted in getting points deducted for simple grammatical errors that could have been avoided if I would have had the time to proofread. My writing styles have many strengths and weaknesses and I have been able to improve my writing because of them. I have learned from my strengths and weaknesses how to become a better writer.

This shift of conception is termed 'demythologization', where everything works without a purpose and results from mechanical interaction of particles regulated by universal laws which can be mathematically formulated (Greetham, B., 2006). Consequently, began the search of the self by looking within for purpose and meaning.
