English Notes

This poem(Separation) has been written by Rabindranath Tagore. He was a remarkable and significant contributor to the emerging history of Indian literature. He had not formal schooling taste even though he gave us a large part of literary work. He had given us unbeatable property as Gitanjali. Here, I am going to explain the poem that has been taken from the Gitanjali. First stanza of the poem,  "Clouds heap upon clouds and it darkens,  Ah,love, why dost thou let me wait outside at the door all alone?"                              The poet starts with the bad situation of weather, he wants to say that clouds are getting darker and darker. The shining ray is rapidly darkening so oh my love, why are you standing me outside at the door. I think it's not comfortable, all alone and impatiently waiting for you.  "In the b...

As we know that Shakespeare is one of the best dramatists in the world but especially, I am going to explain his dramatic career. Shakespeare's active dramatic career in London lasted about twenty years and may be divided into three symmetrical periods. The first extends from the year 1587 to 1593-94; the second period from this date to the end of the century; and the third period from 1600 to 1608, soon after which time Shakespeare ceased to write regularly for the stage, was less in London and more and more at Stratford.Some modern critics add to the fourth period, including a few plays which from internal as well as external evidence must have been among the poet's latest productions. As the exact dates of these plays are unknown, this period may be taken to extend from 1608 to 1612. The three dramas produced during these years are, however, hardly entitled to be ranked as a separate period. They may be regarded as supplementary to the grand series of dramas belonging to...

Geoffrey Chaucer ( 1340-1400) was an English poet and renowned author. Widely considered the greatest English poet of the Middle Ages, he is best known for his  work The Canterbury Tales . He has been called the " father of English literature ", or, alternatively, the " father of English poetry ".He was the first writer to be buried in what has since come to be called Poets' Corner, in Westminster Abbey. Chaucer also gained fame as a philosopher and astronomer. He maintained a career in the civil service as a bureaucrat, courtier, diplomat, and member of parliament.Among Chaucer's many other works are The Book of the Duchess, The House of Fame, The Legend of Good Women , and Troilus and Criseyde. He is seen as crucial in legitimising the literary use of Middle English when the dominant literary languages in England were still French and Latin. While records concerning the lives of his contemporaries, William Langland and the Pearl Poets are practical...
