1) What is archetypal criticism? What does the archetypal critic do?
As per dictionary meaning “Archetype” means a skeleton or a particular structure or pattern of something specific and In literary criticism the term archetype denotes recurrent narratives designs, patterns of action, character-types, themes, and images which are identifiable in a wide variety of works of literature, as well as in myths, dreams, and even social rituals. The work of Archetypal critic is to find a particular pattern in literature and as per their research literature follows the cycle of birth and death and re-birth it also follows the natural cycle, seasons and also solar cycle. So from this type of research the archetypal critic does their work.
2) What is Frye trying to prove by giving an analogyof 'physics to nature' and 'criticism to literature'?
By giving an analogy of ‘physics to nature’ and ‘criticism to literature’ Frye in a way trying to say that as the student of physics studied nature but they didn’t say that they are studying nature they say they are studying physics same way the students of literature are studied the criticism of literature, they are not studied literature because literature is not like science it can not be taught but the criticism of literature can be taught so here Frye trying to prove that what we studied is not literature but criticism of literature.
3) Show your views of criticism as an organised body of knowledge, mention relation of literature with history and philosophy.
As Northrop Frye says that we are not studying literature but we studying the criticism of literature and after that he says that criticism is an organized body of knowledge because everything which we are doing in criticism has scientific pattern and to support this idea he says that philosophy and history both are the pillars of literature and by doing criticism we also studied events of history and ideas of philosophy. So in this way philosophy and history both have connected to the literature.
4) Briefly explain inductive method with illustration of shakespeare's Hamlet's grave digger's scene.
Inductive method is like moving towards from specific to general observation. Like from the grave digging scene of ‘Hamlet’ we move towards some general observations like the scene of graveyard always shows that something bad will going to happen or the death will happen, second is everyone is mortal whether it is servant or king, then we can see that when work become regular it will no more affect such as to others like digging grave for someone is sad but diggers are singing a song. The conversation between both diggers shows the real situation of that age like corruption and blind faith for someone who did suicide. So this is inductive method that from a particular scene we are moving towards some general observations.
5) Briefly explain deductive method with reference to an analogy to music, painting, rhythm and pattern. Give examples of the outcome of deductive method.
Deductive method is something in which we are observing general things first and then from that observation we are moving towards something specific. In music we have rhythm and it takes time to understand and in painting it has patterns which can be understand in one glance. Music travel in time and painting is in spatial. Literature has both like when we start read something it takes time to complete and appreciate like music but when we complete reading we can see the whole picture of that book or anything which we read in front of our eyes like painting, so from this deductive method we come to know that literature moves in time and also it is spatial.
6) Refer to the Indian seasonal grid if you can please read small Gujarati or Hindi or English poem from the archetypal approach ad apply Indian seasonal grid in the interpretation.
(Indian seasonal grid)
Here I found one Hindi poem on all Indian seasons which has particular archetype which we can see from the poem. The poem is as below…
सूरज तपता धरती जलती।
गरम हवा ज़ोरों से चलती।
तन से बहुत पसीना बहता,
हाथ सभी के पंखा रहता।
आ रे बादल! काल्रे बादल!
गरमी दूर भगा रे बादल!
रिमझिम बूँदें बरसा बादल!
झम-झम पानी बरसा बादल!
लो घनघोर घटाएँ छाईं,
टप-टप-टप-टप बूँदें आईं।
बिजली चमक रही अब चम-चम,
लगा बरसने पानी झम-झम!
लेकर अपने साथ दिवाली,
सरदी आई बड़ी निराली।
शाम सवेरे सरदी लगती,
पर स्वेटर से है वह भगती।
सर्दी जाती, गरमी आती,
रंग रंग के फूल खिलाती।
रंग-रँगीली होली आती,
सबके मन उमंग भर जाती।
रात और दिन हुए बराबर,
सोते लोग निकलकर बाहर।
सरदी बिलकुल नहीं सताती,
सरदी जाती गरमी आती।
Here we can see the difference in archetypal season of west and in indian seasonal grid like for west summer is time of romance while in indian season summer is consider as very harsh season, for west winter or rainy season is harsh while in india these both season consider as good for romance and harvesting and love. This all things we can see in this poem like here summer is consider as harsh while winter and rain is consider as good.
Thank you.
