Mathilde Loisel in The Necklace (CHARACTER SKETCH)

Write a character sketch in Mathilda Loisel in the story The Necklace...

 Mathilda Loisel was a pretty and a beautiful lady but she was obsessed with glamour. She was a centre of attraction in the ball. She had smooth hair but dainty fingers. She was desirous of name and fame. She nurtured a desire of getting married to a rich person but was married to a lowly clerk and felt a burden of poverty. However, her husband was loving and would provide her with the best he could. She had a comfortable house to live in but she but she was so discontented. 
She would spend half of her say thinking about her overwhelming densities chat had virtually consumed her. She would do nothing but love in her own illusionary world where her actual life didn't even match her ideal life. She was so ambitious that she used to day dream.
She was very fond of jewellery and clothes, dreamt of a royal bungalow and wished to have soft-footed servants. She lost the diamond necklace and became a victim and lead an endlessly miserable life due to her own vain, proud and materialistic nature.

THE GREAT CHESS CHALLENGE

Write a diary entry from Akbar's perspective showing his carelessness and what Lilavati wanted to teach him in the story THE GREAT CHESS CHALLENGE ! I am writing down this blunder , a big mistake of mine in this diary so that whenever I will read what I wrote down , it will re-memorise me my mistake which I would not like to repeat for the welfare of my people. I am the custodian of my kingdoms welfare. I'm a sovereign and I am a master in playing chess so how can Lilavati even be successful in defeating me even if I ignore the fact that she has defeated me. I don't believe that she has fooled a potent and a superior King Who is also known as the great king . a clever, imaginative request can open closed doors and closed minds. she has totally left me outraged and chastised.  The lesson she has taught me itself have words that keep some significance. Days had grown and easy and miserable as the jeering laughter of the courtiers had begun to die down. I should take deci...

In the Bazaars of the Hyderabad by Sarojini Naidu... (CRITICAL APPRECIATION)

Write a critical appreciation of the poem IN THE BAZAARS OF THE HYDERABAD. In the poem "In the Bazaars of the Hyderabad" , Sarojini Naidu has described the beauty of a traditional Indian 'Market' or 'bazaar'. She has touched upon all five senses and has been trying to unite the Indians to drive the British out of India. She is trying to encourage the Indians to buy goods from their traditional markets rather than purchasing foreign goods. When I read the poem, I liked the whole poem itself and there wasn't any part I disliked as there was a special charm in the lyrics. It did a picturesque and a spectacular description of the Indian wares. This poem is also a reminder of the truth of life , that there are both happy and sad phases in life which we have to face.  Only the second, fourth and the sixth line of each stanza were rhythmic. Visual imagery is depicted with the use of vibrant colours like silver, crimson, purple etc. She has also used si...

Palanquin-Bearers by Sarojini Naidu.... (CRITICAL APPRECIATION)

Write A critical appreciation of the poem Palanquin Bearers by Sarojini Naidu... In  Palanquin-Bearers,  Sarojini Naidu shows and describes the cultural and heritage beauty and feelings of a bride as well as feelings of the palanquin bearers   . The poet evokes the magnificent day of brides which changes their life. The royal princess is not at all a burden for them but a privilege as she sits and dream for her future. I liked the 2nd part of the poem very much as this part expresses  the joy and pride of the palanquin bearers though I didn't like the parts where there were repetitions such as gaily O Gaily or lightly O lightly etc. The rhyme scheme of the poem was aa,bb,cc and so on . On the other hand there were literary devices that were also used such as similes…like a flower in the wind or like a bird on the foam etc. alliteration such as she sways or she springs gave a very vibrant and a rhythmic outlook . I was satisfied by a line "we bear her along like...
