Post- Truth

Image
what is post-truth?  In 2016, Oxford Dictionaries chose post-truth as its word of the year, defining it as shorthand for “circumstances in which objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than appeals to emotion and personal belief”. Oxford Dictionaries announced its word of the year for 2016 and earlier it's not part of the vernacular or as recognizable as the runners-up like "alt-right," "adulting," "woke," and "Brexiteer," then we recognize how it played a major role in the election of Donald Trump. Post-truth is a reworking of the much discredited Marxist notion of ‘false consciousness’ that was based on the notion that there is one living truth centred on the wisdom of those who are sufficiently enlightened.   It assumes that there is only one objective truth and that the debate between the half-full and half-empty can be settled conclusively and objectively.    Thank You 😊

Digdarshak - One Act Play

Digdarshak (Hindi Drama) One Act Play Written by Priyam Jani Directed by Rishit Jhaveri A few days ago we watched a hindi play Digdarshak @ our Department of English;it was organised by a film screening committee members. I have no idea about theater but what i feel or observed is it is.. It is a story about a Director and Actor. Director is so much involved in his theater life. He gaves too much attention to his students rather then family. Director sacrifice his personal life for his art or theater,so the main theme  of this play is THEATER V/S FAMILY..because he sacrifice for the theatre. Only two man perform many roles on the stage or cover full stage. Director used flashback techniques to throw a light upon the concept. Its really painful that sometimes we are not able to balanced everything... Thank you..

YUGPURUSH MAHATMA NA MAHATMA The play is directed by acclaimed director Rajesh Joshi, and scripted by well-known playwright Uttam Gada. The music direction is by Sachin - Jigar. Duration: 120 minutes with intermission. The play is presently running in the Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Marathi, Bengali and Tamil versions, and will soon be released in English and other regional languages. A play is about Mahatma Gandhi & shrimad Rajchandraji.. The Father of the Indian Nation, Mahatma Gandhi is synonymous with ahinsa and satyagraha. Mahatma's inspiration was Shrimad Rajchandraji.. The Yugpurush is a heart-touching portrayal of this special bond between Shrimadji and Gandhiji that catapulted him from 'Mohandas' to 'Mahatma'.This theatrical presentation is a tribute to two great souls and an opportunity for all to be inspired. Yugpurush highlights the values of expanding one's capacity to love and give selflessly, respecting diversity, supporting

Dr. Faustus Written by Christopher Marlowe Directed by Matthew Dunster This was the 1st production of Doctor Faustus at the Globe. Sir Dilip Barad has given an online task to perform after screening of the play.. Tasks: 1) The play directed by Matthew Dunster for Globe theatre ends with this scene (see the image of Lucifer). What does it signify? last Scene: Lucifer with wide wings * It deals with the last hour of faustus's life when he is caught alone in his study waiting for the devils to come and take his soul to hell. Sach a loneliness may be a cross reference used by Marlowe to underlines that man is alone infront of DEATH. Faustus having nothing but his absolute knowledge gained through his sinful deal with the devil,is desperately alone..In the end Evil wins and it shows his victory. 2) Is God present in the play? If yes, where and how? If No, why? *Yes,God has presented in the play from the 1st scene to last scene. Faustus's conversations with t

Really hate T.V. serials! No creativity at all! All the serials have the same old cheesy stories and are watered down exponentially! When is Indian television going to launch something innovative and brilliant¿¿ Indian television industry should feel ashamed for showing such ridiculous concepts and exposing children to such crap...this is pathetic..instead of showing progressive thinking these shows promote how backward indian society is! For us, this one definitely comes as another blow to the Indian Television, which has no great reputation, anyway.

5 Aug 2017 Tree plantation @ Department of english;by respected Dilip sir and the students. Its my misfortune i was absent that day...but my dear friends planted a small beautiful plant ..                 Tree plantation means planting tree in large number. Trees are very important to us in many ways. We cannot think of our existence without trees. Trees cover a great deal of our food deficiency by providing fruits and vitamins. Or the main thing is an oxygen..     A beautiful memories.. Thank You..😊

Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe

Robinson Crusoe is a novel by Daniel Defoe, first published on 25 April 1719. The first edition credited the work's protagonist Robinson Crusoe as its author, leading many readers to believe he was a real person and the book a travelogue of true incidents. Robinson Crusoe Publication date 25 April 1719 (298 years ago)Followed byThe Farther Adventures of Robinson Crusoe.  1》Write about colonial discourse in Robinson crusoe.. * In Defoe's Robinson Crusoe, colonialism is clearly apparent. To put the literary work into its proper context, it should be noted that the story was published in 1719, and England was enjoying the prosperity of the American colonies. Colonialism is also seen in how Crusoe treats Friday once they leave the island. Crusoe's answer to prayer, one who he looked to like a son, he "civilizes" so that he can become a part of the great land of England, but not as a brother or friend—only as a servant.  "My man Friday" indicate
