Written in 1913‚ it is considered a pioneering work for its realism‚ vivid characterisation‚ treatment of sex complications and faultless control over tone and narrative method. Sons and Lovers is referred to as a Künstlerroman (a version of the Bildungsroman)‚ which is a novel charting the growth and

certainly possible to make an issue and to make the audience well-aware of its own naivety by the use of an ambivalent title‚ as Elizabeth Bowen and Saki have tried to do with their respective short stories ‘The Demon Lover’ and ‘The Open Window’. The first tale yet‚ ‘The Demon Lover’‚ shows that it is not that difficult to put one on the wrong track. The title implies that it might be a ghost story‚ which was still very popular those days‚ but after a first lecture we can conclude that this is not

Lady Chatterley’s Lover‚ written by DH. Lawrence was first published in 1928. The novel follows around the protagonist of the story‚ Lady Constance Chatterley. The story is about how this woman‚ who is trapped in a loveless and almost sterile marriage‚ finds emotional and physical love with the gameskeeper of her husband’s estate. As a story about the relationships between men and women‚ I find this book a very nice read‚ but with Lawrence also using this novel as a way to show his readers the

"Porphyria’s lover" (PL) and "The laboratory" (TL) are two dramatic monologues written by Robert Browning. Browning uses a range of techniques to reveal the characters psyche. The characters are both insane and deluded but have big differences‚ such as one of them is sadistic and the other suffering from subconscious guilt. I will be discussing the techniques that Browning uses to reveal his characters in PL and TL. In TL Browning begins to suggest a sense of paranoia in the wife: she seems to feel

The representation of family life in Cold Comfort Farm and Sons and Lovers Family life in Cold Comfort Farm ia portrayed negatively mostly throughout the novel. It’s one of the main themes in the novel and can be seen through Flora and the presentation of the ‘Starkadders’ (Flora’s distant relatives). Flora is not close to her family and says ‘If i find out i have any third cousins living at Cold Comfort called Seth‚ or Reuben‚ I shall not go’. This shows that she’s already stereotyping her own

compare and contrast Havisham‚ by Carol Ann Duffy and Porphyria’s Lover‚ by Robert Browning. I will explore and analyse the range of poetic devices used to tell a story of love gone wrong. Havisham is spoken by a fictional character based on Charles Dickens’ Miss Havisham. Duffy depicts Havisham as a woman crippled by love and loneliness after being left at the altar. In contrast Browning’s poem sees Porphyria’s Lover murder Porphyria‚ so she can’t leave and he will no longer be lonely in her absence

Over centuries there has been a huge debate as to which one is superior. Vampires and werewolves have always fought each other from the beginning as born enemies. Some say the werewolves are superior because they are stronger and others say the vampires are superior because they are smarter. It comes down to brawn versus brains
