Thinking Activity :To the Lighthouse

My responses to the questions are given below:-

1 )  complexity of human relationship.

                                 “ Life is simple but people are complicated”  

In the novel Virginia Woolf use of the Narrative Technique is  “stream of consciousness”.  Stream of consciousness is handing tools for her to use this technique where they are in flush and things are always in moment, we can't say this is this and that is that.

                                    Virginia Woolf use the Hidden thought of each and every character in the novel, For Example: James Hearted towards  of there Father,

 “Had there been an axe handy, a poker, or any weapon that would have gashed a hole in his father's breast and killed him, there and then, James would have seized it.” – Part 1

                                   Mrs. Ramsay and look towards  James, and Lily Briscoe  how Lily Briscoe  looking towards Mrs.  Ramsay that way character is draw. That way stream of consciousness operate. In the dialogue between, Charles  and  Mr. Ramsey he speak philosophy things philosopher also ideas always philosophy. Charles tensely comes and say my chapters, you read or not what is happen, when my PhD work is not done, if you return but he say we will do it don't worry don't patients.

                                 We will complete that also so Charles, cancelling is also having opinion about political affairs live. and Mr. Ramsay are leaving country, which is longer and almost verge of battle first world war is begin. on whose opinion is complete, and PHD is quickly going to politics life also they also impassion .

                                   Charles translate is argue,  “women can't to paint or can't to right” also and say there is something like object objective truth and which women are incapable of get objectivity is. And say “emotional beings is never have so something like objective” .

                         Once a book now mobile phone is a questionable things people are doubting in they characters.

2) The novel is both the tribute and critique of Mrs. Ramsay. Mrs. Ramsay’s character is a tribute as well as critique on womanhood. She is caring and kind who pampers her husband’s ego. Taking care of everyone. Woman full of good-will and no ill-will. Mrs. Ramsay’s character is like a character of आज्ञाकारी and संस्कारी बहू we see in Indian daily soaps. According to her she is happier than Lily because she herself is married while she considers Lily as Poor. She repeats the sentence time and again open ‘Open the window and close the doors’- which signifies that allowing yourself to think but close the door means closing the wider way for change or say not allowing yourself for change. 

Both Lily and Mrs. Ramsay’s character presents different personality of womanhood. If we look from modern perspective toward the character we consider Lily’s character more independent.

3). in ‘to the Lighthouse’ Virginia Woolf utilizes a verity of myth. Joseph L.Blotener has additionally use the myth like the pagan myth or Oedipus myth. The pagan myth speak to old goddesses and it is depicted the main part of female character. In ‘To the Lighthouse’ the female act like mother and mother remain turn into middle, mother is controlling one or all. Oedipus is a Greek mythological character based on the myth of ‘Oedipus Rex was written by Sophocles. Oedipus who unwittingly kills his father Laius and marriage his mother Jocasta. In this novel ‘To the Lighthouse’ James who was a son of the Mrs. Ramsey. He loved his mother profoundly and feels a murderous antipathy towards his father.

7) comparison of the 'beginning' and the 'ending' of the novel and the film adaptation of the novel. Do you think that the novel is more poignant than the movie? If yes, do you ascribe the fact that the power of words is much greater than that of the screen / visuals?

ans:      

         If we compare film version with book at that time we loss some originality of the novel. And movie destroys our imagination, as compare to book. And while reading we are thinking more than while watching movie. But as we know that world became neno. And we don't have so much time, so for that solution we have movie version with limitations. But after all these two things are different, so better to no compare it.

     

 8) How do you interpret the last line of the novel with reference to the ending of the film?

ans:

        The last line is that,

“I had my vision”

so in the end we can see that Lily is winner, and she is free as usually. She is enjoying her life rather than any ordinary woman like Mrs. Ramsay. And she is different than other. And to enjoy life is better than to show that I am good or great person.
