GURUKULAM (A Unit of Dr.R R Foundation)

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 busy moments of the moontide work I am with the crowd, but on this dark lonely day, it is only for thee that I hope. "                

I think, I am very fortunate to have my birth in the greatest democratic system in the world. Everyone knows that India is the world's biggest democratic country in the world and the people of India are very lucky to play the role for their rights freely. As I know that each man of this country has equal right to play his own feeling in different aspects. I mean, I have a big institution in the world to share own experiences in front of the honorable guardian and members of the big institution. This type of liberty, we got after a long war so that we feel immense lucky.                         As I congratulate those who gave us such type of things in the country. No doubt to say that, we have different land to grow different kinds of crops and vegetables to eat. We have also good institutions to get competent knowledge about the world and also of different cultures and atmospheres. People of the world looking around us that why we are so happy almost of our life? Another big

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

After the Restoration in 1660, when Charles II came to the throne, there was a complete repudiation of the Puritan ideals and way of living. In English literature the period from 1660 to 1700 is called the period of Restoration, because monarchy was restored in England, and Charles II, the son of Charles I who had been defeated and beheaded, came back to England from France and became the King.It is called the Age of Dryden, because Dryden was the dominating and most representative literary figure of the Age. As the Puritans who were previously controlling the country, and were supervising her literary and moral and social standards, were finally defeated, a reaction was launched against whatever they held sacred. All restraints and discipline were thrown to the winds, and a wave of licentiousness and frivolity swept the country. Charles II and his followers who had enjoyed a gay life in France during their exile, did their best to introduce that type of foppery and looseness in Engl

The poem 'Desideria' has been composed by William Wordsworth after his daughter's death. He is one of the greatest poets of Romantic Age. This poem is the deepest feeling of the poet because of losing his flower of family as his lovely daughter 'Catherine'. The poet composed this poem into fourteen lines, that is called Sonnet. This Sonnet shows poet's memory for his daughter. Let's see stanza by stanza of this poem.  "Surprized by joy- impatient as the wind, I turned to share the transport--Oh!with whom, But thee-deep buried in the silent tomb,  That spot which no vicissitude can find?"                                       In the first stanza of the poem, the poet says that when she comes to our family then we surprise with a lot of joy and happiness. We want to share this happiness to all around. When she goes out unfortunately from family and buried in the silent tomb, then we will be unhappy and sad to find out that spot where

This poem has been composed by William Wordsworth. He is one of the best poets during Romantic Period. He wrote many poems with romantic atmosphere during his poetic career and his name and fame struck in the pages of world's history. He draws a real picture of human feelings and he believes himself as a heart motivator because he gives a sense of affection to the readers in the world through his conception of poetry. Here, I am going to explain line by line of "A Slumber Did My Spirit Seal ".It is an elegy written by him on the death of Lucy. So simple question is here, who is lucy….I think she is a beautiful creation of William Wordsworth's imagination. But most of us not sure that she was a real girl of his life or a girl in imagination. This poem has only two stanzas with a wide sense of realization.  "A slumber did my spirit seal,  I had no human fears; She seem'd a thing that could not feel,  The touch of earthly years ".            

Virtue is a part of The Temple, a collection of poems written by Herbert. Herbert was a religious man whose devotion for Christianity. This poem has been written by him with not so simple meaning but with a sense of positive purpose. This poem has four stanzas and he used many figures of speech to one another. I think virtue means spiritual quality. Let us know stanza by stanza of this poem.  "Sweet day, so cool, so calm, so bright,  The bridal of the earth and sky: The dew shall weep thy fall to night,  For thou must die". In the first stanza, The poet says that sweet, calm,cool,and bright day as the moment of bridal of the earth and sky. People feel so happy with this sight but in the same stanza, the poet also says that after ending of the day dew shall weep now and then everything must go away from the present life to enter into another world. So I think it's physical beauty and brightness has limited period to glow then must pass away.  "Sweet

This is a voice of Macbeth in Act 5,written by William Shakespeare. Shakespeare is a par excellence in the world of English literature. It is a type of order given by Macbeth to the defence of the castle.  Shakespeare says in this poem that time is the most powerful weapon in the world. He says that he knows about tomorrow because from his birth, it is being continued. What is the real future of us, he introduced here.        "Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,  Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,  To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools, The way to dusty death".                   In these lines, the poet says that all living creatures across the world creeping silently day by day in their lives like time. Here, in this poem, the poet says tomorrow means coming time which has been heard since my childhood. I also hope like that it creeps to the last minute of life. Whatever I have this time, that's fres
