Short Summary of “English Teacher” by R.K. Narayan

Marriage
Narayan’s The English Teacher was published in 1945, seven years after The Dark Room. Probably it was the shattering blow that he received in the death of his wife Rajam, which rendered him incapable of sustained artistic effort, and during this interval he could write only short stories and sketches.The English Teacher is an autobiographical novel.

It narrates the domestic life of Krishna a lecturer in English in the Albert Mission College, Malgudi.

Short Summary of “Indian Women” by Shiv K. Kumar

Marriage
This is a poem which seeks to recreate a typical Indian scene in a language which is highly metaphorical. At a deeper level the poem is a projection of the poet’s response to what one may call the impover­ishment of the human spirit.

Short Summary of “An Introduction” by Kamala Das

Marriage
This should be considered an important poem for more than one reason. First of all, the poem makes a very clear and significant state­ment relating to the question why some Indian writers choose to write in English rather than in an Indian language, for instance in their mother tongue. Secondly, this poem illustrates Kamala Das’s ability to “successfully marshal diverse and tangential themes in one controlled poem” (Daruwalla). Starting with a reference to politics, the poem moves on to a statement of convictions in respect of her choice of medium and leads to convulsive outbursts of feelings of hurt and shame as also to statements on love and marriage which make for self- exposure and confession.The poem carries with it most of the themes which one associates with her poetry,…

Short Speech on ‘A School is a Miniature Society’

Friends
According to a leading dictionary, a society is a ‘particular grouping of humanity with shared customs, laws etc.’ Since a school meets these criteria, it may be called a society within a society—a miniature society that exists within a larger society.The kind of ‘grouping of humanity’ that a school comprises varies from place to place. The composition may be fairly homogeneous in a village, while in a metropolis it is often very heterogeneous. Either way, once a child enters a school, he automatically joins a community whose members function under the leadership of the same authorities, and who share the same rules and regulations.A school represents a society, unless the institution specifically caters to any particular group or ideology. Ideally speaking, the students in a school must represent a wide…
