  • The Recognition of Passion in Selected Fiction of E. M. Forster
    THE RECOGNITION OF PASSION IN SELECTED FICTION OF E. M. FORSTER by Joyce Nichols Submitted as an Honors Paper in the Department of English The University of North Carolina at Greensboro 1964 Approved by JV Vtr \ VVfl, i •*) r\ Director Examining Committee 1/0,-HSI ^V AdJ^y- A K-t'-fZr^.-T^ft—* ■** —/««g>*. One does not read E. M. Forster without becoming aware very quickly that Mr. Forster is probably England's most articulate and convincing champion of the passionate life. Passion to Mr. Forster has many faces; indeed it is a whole way of life. It is the purpose of this paper to define the many different aspects of this Forsterian passion and to observe its development or denial in several characters of his selected fiction. It is difficult, as I write about E. M. Forster, to believe that he is in his eighty-sixth year and that he has not published a novel in forty years. It is difficult to accept these biological and literary facts because, even today, p?r,s° works retain a freshness and vitality that many later works of English fiction lack. What then gives these qualities to his fiction, some of which was written more than 40 years ago? Partly, it is because Mr. F«riis concerned with universal themes but it is also because he has managed to communicate some of the wonder and idealism of the child in a jaded century. He invites us to climb through to the other side of the hedge1 and begin to live. He is essentially didactic in his writings but his didactism is gentle and becomes less insistent, more subtle and tentative by the time of A Passage to India.

  • A Study of EM Forster's Maurice
    www.ijcrt.org © 2020 IJCRT | Volume 8, Issue 10 October 2020 | ISSN: 2320-2882 The Criminal Blindness of Society: A Study of E.M Forster’s Maurice 1Dr. Nishi Upadhyaya, 1Associate Professor , 1Department of English, 1Pandit Naval Kishore Sharma Government P.G. College, Dausa, Rajasthan, India Abstract: E.M Forster’s fiction is significant because of his ability to express some of the major dilemma of the twentieth century, in spite of their multiplicity and complexity, in the order of art. Forster’s novel Maurice (1971) touches the sensitivity of modern society to relations and questions of deep human relationships. The present paper explores in detail the emergence of the inner life of Maurice in the face of a hostile society. Index Terms – Inner life, homosexuality, taboo, quest, identity, meaningful relationship, psychological tensions, light and dark, creation. E.M Forster is a liberal writer whose works continually deal with the ideal of a cosmopolitan tolerant culture which would encourage the free and fullest growth of the individual. His portrayal of human relationships in the social, economic and political aspects was all the time concerned with the ways and means by which human beings can break down the fetters of narrow-minded conventions, destructive and inhibiting human freedom. Forster’s fiction is significant because of his ability to express some of the major dilemmas of the twentieth century, in spite of their multiplicity and complexity, the order of art. Forster’s Maurice (1971) touches the sensitivity of modern society to relations and questions of deep human relationships. In his earlier novels, Forster had dealt with the earth-connected, passionate life in its conflict with middle class society.

I would like to give my special thanks to my chairperson, Associate Prof. Dr. Gill Celkan for her great help through my 4- year education in the department. Murat Illian, 1998 T.R.N.C. 2 INTRODUCTION A Passage To India is E-M Forster's most ambitious, and surely one of the classic modem English novels, a work both of modem chaos and aesthetic order. The echo in the Marabar caves levels all meaning to one declares "Everything exist; nothing has value". In which the j anus- face of the universe is visible, where its horror and smallness are simultaneously known, where "neither ignore nor respect unity".

Kenney, Jr.: The Moment, 1910: Virginia Woolf, Arnold Bennett, and Turn of the The Moment, 1910: Virginia Woolf, Arnold Bennett, and Turn ofthe Century Consciousness by EDWIN J. KENNEY, JR. N THE YEARS 1923-24 Virginia Woolf was embroiled in an argument I with Arnold Bennett about the responsibility of the novelist and the future ofthe novel. In her famous essay "Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Brown," she observed that "on or about December, 1910, human character changed";1 and she proceeded to argue, without specifying the causes or nature of that change, that because human character had changed the novel must change if it were to be a true representation of human life. Since that time the at once assertive and vague remark about 1910, isolated, has served as a convenient point of departure for historians now writing about the social and cultural changes occurring during the Edwardian period.2 Literary critics have taken the ideas about fiction from "Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Brown" and Woolfs other much-antholo­ gized essay "Modern Fiction" as a free-standing "aesthetic manifesto" of the new novel of sensibility;3 and those who have recorded and discussed the "whole contention" between Virginia Woolf and Arnold Bennett have regarded the relation between Woolfs historical observation and her ideas about the novel either as just a rhetorical strategy or a generational disguise for the expression of class bias against Bennett.4 Yet few readers have asked what Virginia Woolf might have nleant by her remark about 1910 and the novel, or what it might have meant to her.

  • Was the Classical Tradition Betrayed by J. Ivory's
    Was the Classical Tradition Betrayed by J. Ivory’s Adaptation 1 of E. M. Forster’s Maurice? Pau Gilabert Barberà2 Universitat de Barcelona [email protected] To J. Baucells, J. M. Orteu and M. Forcano Abstract According to literature and film studies and from the point of view of the influence of classical tradition on Western culture—classical Greek tradition, in this case—this article analyses the inevitable—to a certain degree—betrayal by screenwriters of the literary texts that they adapt. However, in spite of being practically inevitable, Dr. Pau Gilabert indicates what are, in his opinion, the limits beyond which Ivory/Hesketh-Harvey should not have gone in order not to dilute the Hellenic temper of E. M. Forster’s Maurice. As citizens of this and the last century, we are very much used to the undeniable pleasure of seeing remarkable masterpieces of world literature on the screen. Images quite often endow the text with a power of seduction that appears as ‘inherent to’ and ‘exclusive of’ visual expression, and, yet, it would be absurd not to admit that ‘an image is not always worth a thousand words’. If we consider that all translations are betrayals, the translation of a literary text into images must necessarily fall into the same category. Therefore, these short reflections will deal with this idea, with J. Ivory’s small or great betrayals, whether conscious or unconscious—actually, Ivory and Hesketh-Harvey’s, since both were responsible for the script—when he brought E. M. Forster’s Maurice to the screen,3 taking into account

  • Virginia Woolf's to the Lighthouse: Toward an Integrated Jurisprudence
    Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse: Toward an Integrated Jurisprudence Lisa Weilt I. INTRODUCTION Since the publication of Virginia Woolf s novel To the Lighthouse in 1927, a significant volume of critical commentary has grown to surround the work. These critical interpretations come in two types: some consider Woolf's technical experiments in style and form;' others consider her ideology. Commentaries which address Woolf's ideology include discussions of her views on philosophy, aesthetics, relations between the sexes, and feminist issues.2 In recent years, scholars have approached the novel with the insight of Woolf's autobiographical writings and have taken a particular interest in feminist and psychoanalytical themes in the work. This Article's analysis differs from the existing body of commentary by exploring another dimension of Woolf's ideology: her legal philosophy. Existing commentaries interpret the celebrated expedition to the Lighthouse as a quest for psychological maturity, truth, harmonious social relations between men and women, and aesthetic harmonies. This Article adds another dimension to the symbolic voyage and interprets the expedition as a quest for justice. Critics have often placed Woolf within the intellectual aristocracy of her time and judged her as an elitist who avoided themes of social and political importance.4 This Article counters that criticism and concludes that Woolf's t B.A. University of Pennsylvania, 1989; J.D.

[Lucy] thought not so much of what had happened as of how she should describe it. ... But ... her words fell short of life. (A Room with a View 68, 94, 229) A Room with a View invites the same question that Charlotte Bartlett asks when she sees George Emerson's "enormous note of interroga- tion": "What does it mean?" (43). The reply might be that Forster's novel is "about" such matters as love, art, self-realization, Edwardian manners, feminism, values and their revision, exposure and conceal- ment, completion and interruption, daily life and celestial life, the subconscious mind, language, myth-and so on.

  • The Other Boat"
    MARI.AM PIRBHAI Against the Oriental(ist) Current: Homosexuality and Empire in E.M. Forster's "The Other Boat" Passage to more than India!. .. Passage, immediate passage! the blood burns in my veins! Away 0 soul! hoist instancly the anchor! ... And we will risk the ship, ourselves and all. -Wait Whitman's "Passage to India" .M. FORSTER HAS BEEN TARGETED for his status as a member Eof the Empire's elite as often as he has been celebrated for his sensitive portrayal of India's reaction to colonial rule. The subtle degrees to which Forster participated in the pleasures of conquest while writing against impe­ rialism is complicated by his privately lived marginalization as a homosexual. Nowhere does Forster oscillate more sharply between an Orientalist and anti-imperialist impulse than in those works in which the issue ofhomosexu­ ality intersects questions of race and empire. In such works, Forster seems as critical of the divisiveness of colonial rule as he is stifled by the lingering pall of Victorian values at the turn of the twentieth century. Yet, Forster's own liberal humanist ideals seem stretched to the limits of the imagination in representations of interracial sexual unions which, even when allowed to run their natural course, invariably culminate in disconcerting scenes of domination, violence and brutality. Forster's contradictions notwithstanding, his writing rarely fails to articulate the central role of sexual politics in the discourse of colonialism, at home and abroad. The inextricable relationship between sexuality and empire is vividly imagined in Forster's posthumously published collection, The Life to Come and Other Stories ( 1972).
