Mill On The Floss

The article discusses the response of I.S. Turgenev to the novel by G. Eliot “The Mill on the Floss” in the context of Turgenev’s novel aesthetics. An attempt is made to systematize the writer’s views on the novel genre: giving preference to the social, Dickensian-Georgesandian type of the novel, the writer does not consider it of the same kind and singles out both the indisputable genre peaks (G. Flaubert, L.N. Tolstoy, G. de Maupassant) and indisputable failures (O. de Balzac, E. Zola). From this point of view, Turgenev’s perception of G. Eliot’s novel poetics is analyzed. The author of the article comes to the conclusion that the novel under consideration is the closest one for Turgenev structurally and ideologically. “The Mill on the Floss” appears to be the writer’s least typical novel, with a tragic denouement, predetermined by the love conflict, and the force of nature, and with a heroine who is very different from her environment and therefore doomed under existing circumstances. The fate of Maggie and the structure of her image are consonant with Turgenev’s search for the hero, but later the artistic searches of both writers diverge: G. Eliot becomes interested in a more complex structure, in which there is room for the evolution of the hero, his (or her) overcoming the framework set by his upbringing or environment, and the ability to move on. Here lies the fundamental difference between her poetics and the poetics of Turgenev.

The Social

(Parsons) defines the social system, of several definitions, and perhaps the clearest one is the one in which he believes that the social system is composed of two or more actors (individuals), each of whom occupies a distinct social position or and plays a distinct role, as it is an organized pattern that governs relations between individuals Or a network of interactive relationships that organizes their rights and duties towards each other, as it is a framework of common standards or values, as well as it includes different types of symbols and different cultural issues. While the novel is a very complex structure, and it is difficult to imagine that it was born with an individual invention and without a basis in the social life of the group, it is not possible to imagine that this complex form has no similarity or dialectical relationship between it and the social life of the heroes, this literary form depicts the daily relationship of people. And their different relationships with the society in which they live, the novel as seen by (René Girard) is what reveals the truth about man and reveals the inauthenticity of the human being. And if we know that some see that the literary creator is no less important than the social world, but that he surpasses him in many stages due to his delicate sensitivity and his ability to capture the parts of social life, the anatomy of individuals’ psyche, and to track the stages of social change and their implications for values and behavior And the directives, to what extent was the social system in Iraq able to maintain its social patterns, and what led to the collapse of that coherent system of social systems? And how was the Iraqi novel able to reverse this collapse in all its details? All this we will review in this research, which will be taken from novels published after 2003, material for it, and these narrations are: 1. The novel: Death in the Cherry Field.by the novelist Azhar Gerges. 2. The novel: The Killers, by the novelist Dia al-Khalidi. 3. The novel: the name on the soles, of the novelist Dia Jebili

Points Of View

The concept of “heteroglossia” was coined by Mikhail Bakhtin in an essay from the 1930s. Heteroglossia was the name he gave for the “inner stratification of a single national language into social dialects, group mannerisms, professional jargons, generic languages, the languages of generations and age-groups,” and so on, but it was not simply another term for the linguistic variation studied in sociolinguistics and dialectology. It differed in three respects. First, in heteroglossia differences of linguistic form coincided with differences in social significance and ideology: heteroglossia was stratification into “socio-ideological languages,” which were “specific points of view on the world, forms for its verbal interpretation.” Second, heteroglossia embodied the force of what Bakhtin called “historical becoming.” In embodying a point of view or “social horizon,” language acquired an orientation to the future, an unsettled historical intentionality, it otherwise lacked. Third, heteroglossia was a subaltern practice, concentrated in a number of cultural forms, all of which took a parodic, ironizing stance in relation to the official literary language that dominated them. Throughout his discussion, however, Bakhtin wavers between claiming this heteroglossia exists as such in the social world, from which the novel picks it up, and arguing that heteroglossia is something created and institutionalized by novels, which take the raw material of variation and rework it into “images of a language.” Interestingly, from roughly 2000 on work in sociolinguistics has suggested that ordinary speakers do the kind of stylizing and imaging work Bakhtin assigned to the novel alone. One could argue, however, that heteroglossia only acquires its full significance and force when it is freed from any social function and allowed to flourish in novels. According to Bakhtin, that means that heteroglossia is only possible in modernity, because it is in modernity that society becomes truly historical, and languages only acquire their orientation to the future in those circumstances.

The novel, ‘A Grain of Sand’ (Chokher Bali,1903), is about the social problems of early marriages, widowhood, and extra-marital affair of a married man with a young widow. In this novel, Rabindranath Tagore has portrayed the problems of women in Indian society like widow-remarriage, child-marriage, dowry and illicit extra-marital relationship along with the predicaments of widows in Bengal at the end of the nineteenth century. The difficulties and complications of human relationships and the significance of love in the human relationships are portrayed in this novel.  He has encouraged the need of female education and the abolition of social evils like child-marriage, dowry, widowhood and illiteracy of women, domestic hostility and submissiveness of women are presented in his wonderful novels and stories. In the centre of these social obstacles, female education is revealed as a greater need in the Tagore’s novels. He has portrayed the solitude, sufferings, disappointments and unfulfilled suppressed desires of sexuality of a Bengali widow Binodini in this novel ‘A Grain of Sand’. Rabindranath Tagore had seen social realities from a psychological point of view and performed the role of a social reformer or a moralist. He has presented the problems of women by examining what is happening in the society. In this novel Tagore has shown an amazing notice of the predicaments of women of the Hindu society.  In this study an investigation has been made to show how Rabindranath Tagore has depicted the theme of love and suffering of women in this novel ‘A Grain of Sand’.

The work is devoted to the study of artistic structure specificity of A.I. Solzhenitsyn’s novel “In the First Circle”. We focus on the elements analysis of “circular book building” and parallel plot lines, typology of characters-antipodes. We consider in detail, from the formal-content point of view, the “heading complex” of the novel: title, author’s preamble, dedication, double list of contents. We clarify the semantics of the title variants and the final title of novel. We define the main levels of plot-compositional parallelism. We identify the peculiarities of narrative temporal organization, covering three New Year’s Eve days. We analyze artistic details that help create con-trasting situations. We can trace several cross-cutting motives in the description of the fate of dif-ferent characters. We designate the intersection of storylines affecting the work, love, interpersonal relationships of the characters. We draw parallels between the individual structural elements of the novel, which form the compositional “circular book building” given by the title formula. We define pairs of ideologically and behaviorally similar characters, characters-antipodes and the principles of their typology. We show the importance of parallel elements to create a coherent piece of art. We conclude that the artistic means and techniques used by the writer are directly related to the social and artistic practice of research and embodiment of the Russian national character as the main vector of A.I. Solzhenitsyn’s work.

AbstractThis article situates the semantics of fictional characters within a broader framework of authorial communication. It argues that theories of character in the novel will be deficient to the extent that characters are not conceptualised as motivated creations of an author. The influential approach of Georg Lukács effectively excluded the point of view of the author in favour of a direct relationship between the fictional work and processes of history, as an instance of the particular related to the universal. But here it is argued that the notion of the typical should rather be seen as a relation between the social milieu of the authorial experience on the one hand and the figure-ground construction of character on the other. This constitutes part of a project to examine the question of realism on a renewed basis, particularly in terms of the authorial presence within the fictional world, and the case is argued with specific reference to a novel by John Fowles.
