5 POINTS IN ENGLISH LITERATURE

 

1.    I.A. Richard’s Practical Criticism (1929) inaugurated a new phase in the history of English Critical Thought. The book’s subtitle was A STUDY IN LITERARY JUDGEMENT

2.    More’s UTOPIA displays strong influence of Plato’s Republic and Amerigo Vespucci’s account of the travels.

3.    By “Language Transfer” is meant The carryover of rules of the mother tongue syntax, Phonology, or semantic system to the second language in question

4.    Choices of linguistic forms in using a language, or how a language is actually spoken/written, especially one that differs from its prescribed grammar, is called Usage.

5.    Jamaica Kincaid’s narrative A SMALL PLACE is an essay that discusses the politics of tourism and other neo-colonial modes of foreign intervention
