INTRODUCTION OF THE POEM
The journey of the magi was published in the 1927 in which year Eliot was
converted to Anglicanism.
The poem is in search of the child Christ. He is journeying in search of the
child Christ through inclement conditions. He dissatisfied with the world of
senses and so desires death for new life. But then he is not joyous he is rather
resigned. At last after a long journey, he reaches the land of nativity that he
recognizes from the vegetation all around . he also recognizes this land as the
land of death and birth. He now gets the vision of the ultimate and yet he
cannot relinquish his own world to reach the land of the ultimate.
THEME OF THE POEM IS RELIGIOUS
Journey of the magi is religious poem. It is the promise of salvation. The
Magi is three wise man from to see newly born Christ. They have to face
many obstacles on their way. The regret for the kingdoms they have left. The
paths are difficult and weather is bad.
The camel man leave as they do not get wine and woman.
JOURNEY OF THE MAGI AS THE RELIGIOUS POEM
The journey of the magi is an allegory of spiritual journey in which the flesh
still craves for sensual enjoyment. The details of the journey of the three
wise man from the east bound for Jerusalem to honour the new born Jesus
are the “ objective correlatives” of the spiritual experience of the journey
from the kingdom of the world to the kingdom of heaven. Which entails the
death of the old physical self and the birth of new spiritual one. It is a long
hazardous journey in “the worst time of the year” when the body needs
protection and seeks sensual pleasure . all the material aids of the journey are
growing weak and incapable of providing physical stimulus.
The camels galled , sore footed , refractory
lying down in the melting snow.
The camel man cursing and grumbling and earning away
and the night fires going out, and the lack of shelters.
And the cities hostile and the town unfriendly
and the villages dirty and charging high prices.
The magi are a composite symbol of the spiritual quarter while one of them
reminisces the journey undertaken by them. He longingly recollects their
indulgence in sensual pleasure. He says that while they were going to the
fleshly enjoyments that lack of which tortured them and in such a moment of
spiritual crisis, they regretted to have obeyed the call of the spirit saying
“That this was all folly”
However the quester survives the long journey in the night and at dawn he is
in a “temperate valley” where everything is pleasant. It is the dawn of
spiritual exhilaration. the different aspects of nature signify the new images
of life the “ running stream” symbolizes the rhythmic flow of life the “water
mill beating the darkness” suggests the doubt being driven away the
galloping away of “ the white horse” in the meadow symbolizes upward
movement of the spirit. At this stage the quester becomes conscious of the
betrayal of the man of belief at the hands of those who are without any
belief. In this kingdom of spirit he visualizes the three crosses on cavalry one
of Christ and the other two of the two male factors” he also has the vision of
the Christ riding a white horse and of Judas betraying Christ for thirty pieces
of silver and the roman dicing for the robes of Christ after his crucifixion.
These memories of misdeeds of men without belief engage his mind for a
while and he realizes that the secret of his quest is not revealed to him as yet
and so he continues his exploration. At the end of the day he finds himself at
a place from where he looks back to the region he has traversed and feels
satisfied with the advance he has made.
The positive gain of the journey is the affirmation of the belief that for the
spiritual rejuvenation the overcoming of the sensual aspect of life is
essential. After sacrificing his body Christ become the eternal symbol of the
immortal savior of mankind the emblem of belief in . the virtues of life. The
protagonist has begun to believe that a new spiritual sense has evolved in
him. Like the crucifixion of Christ the painful experience of undergoing the
process of the purgation of his soul has been agonizing. But when he comes
back from “ the twilight kingdom” to the kingdom of disbelief , he is “ no
longer at ease here” because he is away from:” the dispersion of the grace of
god” and is condemned to live in the world of the old dispensation” of
Acadia in the midst of man without belief who adore old god of greed lust
and lechery. However, the experience of his spiritual journey has
transformed him. He considers these men alien different from him and
wishes to experience once more the death of his physical lust.
CONCLUSION
Journey of the Magi is highly religious poem. The religious nature of the
poem.
The magi means a three wise man form the east begin their journey to
Bethlehem city to see the newly born child Christ. The birth of Christ does
not bring.
The birth of Christ is a kind of death for the Magi. They do not feel easy and
lose peace of mind. They feel alienated form society. They wish to welcome
death that they may get a new faith taught be Christ.
Their journey symbolises a spiritual and psychological transformation of the
old something new. It is symbolic mental reorientation the image are
suggestive and symbolic.
The water and the mill symbolises the vital force of life. The valley tree and
tavern symbolises hope and freedom reference.
Thus journey of the Magi is fine dramatic monologue. It is religious poem.
Above all poem is full of striking image and effective.

INTRODUCTION OF THE POEM
The poem was composed by Wordworth in 1798. It was also published in the
same year.
He had first visited the river wye in 1973. the republican ideas had a great
influence on his mind on that time. His mind was full of hopes that made
him feel that a new era of liberty and happiness had begun. The resuld was
that every outward things made him very happy. But in careless sensuous
way. By 1798 however at the time of his second visit things had wholly
changed. He was looking out for solace. Nature sought to offer him peace
and he began to find a deeper significance and meaning in the base
landscape. He began to see in nature.
During the visit of 1798 his sister Dorthy was with him.
THE THEME OF THE POEM
The theme of the poem is favorable subject of word worth’s influence of
nature on the life of man in all its mature age. The poem is autobiographical
and gives us an account of the growth. Of the poet’s concepts of nature. The
intention of the poet is too show that ultimately the true function of nature is
to be man’s prime teacher.
TINTREN ABBEY
AS A NATURE POEM
Wordsworth was a keen observer of nature. it was easy to grasp or
understand and to represent the mysteries of nature. All the truth and
philosophy of human life can be found in the interpretation of nature the
relationship to man and his life.
William Wordswoth revisited the river wye in 1798 after 5 years. He
remembers his first visit and then describes the beauty of the landscape. he
says that though five years had passed he had not forgotten the beautiful
landscape that he had seen in 1793. that pleasant sight has always been
during this period. A sweet memory to him often in time of depression and
gloom that memory had given him joy and soothed his sorrow. He had often
turned for peace and now he is again actually before the river.
Then begin Wordswort’s description of three stages of his concept of nature
only through the senses. At this time nature was only a passion to him. It was
short of course appetite but gradually as he advanced in age [possibly due to
his disillusionment as regards the hopes that he had placed in the French
revolution] this conception underwent a radical change. He now began to
look deeper into nature and started hearing” the still sad music of humanity”
Gradually he began to realize a still deeper meaning. He found that man had
much to learn from nature. Which was man’s prime teacher. He was led to
this belief because he now began to believe the doctrine of immanence. The
divine spirit pervades all things in nature.
Wordsworth again speaks of the blissful influence that nature can and does
exercise over the man. Wordsworth feels that the pleasure he is deriving
from the river because nature never forgets nor betrays of nature. He says to
her that when in future years her youthful emotions shall grow calm she
would find. that her brother’s earnest words had a great power to heal the
sorrows of her future years. Even if the poet was away from her. She would
recall that he brother had stood with her on the banks of the wye that he
revisited the river as worshiper of nature or with a holier love for nature.
Having visualized a divine presence in her and that her[sister’s] company
had the enhanced the beauty of nature is his eyes.
POET’S LOVE FOR NATURE
Tinteen Abbey is one of the greatest poems written by Wordsworth. It has
fine poetry in the seal importance rests upon the autobiographical element
contained in it element that has made its for the critics. A very east takes to
understand his other workers. In this beautiful poem Wordsworth has given
an account of the various phases and periods of his love of nature.
Wordsworth revisits after five years the river wye a few miles above.
Tintreen Abbey and sees and praises the beautiful scene once again. He see
and describes the beauties of the landscape.
During the five years that had passed since his first visit to the place
Wordsworth had not forgotten this beautiful place. The memory of the
landscape had always given him peace and pleasure. It had always produced
in his mind a feeling that had an exulting and noble influence on his
character. He had often turned to the memory of the wye for the relief from
the fret and fever life. It shows him as not merely the lover but a worshipper
of nature. In the poem Wordsworth shows himself as “Nature’s Priest”.
CONCLUSION
Wordsworth believes that the things of nature. He expressed love for nature
other poems beautifully but here there is attitude of veneration and homage
Wordsworth feels that he is a dedicated sprit.
Wordsworth is content to say let nature be your teacher. Even the famous
line
“One impulse from a vernal wood
may teach you more of man
of moral evil or god
all the sages can”
The poem is very strong and emphatic expression of Wordsworth ‘s idea that
nature exercises upon the language is very simple and fine nature of man a
purifying influence and enables him to probe into the reality of man.
Another important thing to be hated is that the poem with an inimitable
sincerity gives three stages of Wordsworth’s life as a lover of Nature.

INTRODUCTION
The paper deals with the concept of discourse. In this paper first section
deals with the meaning of discourse. Three type of meanings of discourse.
Second section deals with the concept of discourse. We have tried to the
explain the concept of discourse. Discourse concerns the use of expression
within some utterance to refer to some portion of the discourse.
The third section we deals with how to the role of discourse in language or
writing discourse represent use of speech and writing.
The forth section deals with problems with the proposition and
representation of discourse content. There exists a fundamental
methodological problem with the proposition based analysis.
MEANING OF THE DISCOURSE
Discourse concerns the use of the expressions thin some utterance to refer to
some portion of the discourse that contains that utterance.
“any meaningful interaction between or among persons”
[discourse analysis]
Gillian brown
“any form of oral or written communication or composition Is called
discourse”
[pregmatics]
Stephen C. levinson
“discourse is any connected piece of speech or writing”

THE CONCEPT OF DISCOURSE
Discourse concerns the use of expressions within some utterance to refer to
some portion of the discourse that contains that utterance [including the
utterance itself] we may also include discourse in discourse deixis a number
of other ways in which an utterance signals its relation to surrounding text .
utterance initial anyway seems to indicate that the immediately preceding
discourse, but one or more steps back. [such signals are delicate because they
have the distinctive relativity of reference being anchored to the discourse
location of the current utterance].
The only detailed accounts of this area of deixis are, again, to be found in
fillmore 1975 and lyons 1977 . since discourse unfolds in time. It seem
natural that time deictic words can be used to refer to portions of the
discourse.
Thus analogously to last week and next Thursday we have in the last
paragraph and in the next chapter but we also have place-deictic terms
reused here and especially the demonstratives this and that. thus this can be
used to refer to a forthcoming portion of the discourse.
THE REPRESENTATION OF DISCOURSE
So far we have considered in very general terms some of the difference in
the manner of production of writing and speech. Before we go on to discuss
some of the ways in which the forms of speech and writing differ we shall
consider in the next two sections. Some of the problems of the representation
written and spoken language. We shall place this within a general discussion
of what it means to represent ‘ a text’ we shall use text as a technical term.
To refer to the verbal record of communicative act.
PROBLEMS WITH THE PROPOSITION BASED
REPRESENTATION OF DISCOURSE CONTENT
There exists a fundamental methodological problem with the proposition
based analysis of texts which makes it difficult to apply in any practical way,
in discourse analysis. The discourse analyst has to be able to set about the
analysis of pieces of text he encounters in newspapers, journals, novels
textbooks and so on.
He can not restricts has investigation to pieces of the text which he
constructs for a particular purpose.
In the following quotation, kintsch first states the outstanding
methodological problem which persists for the proposition based analysis of
text and then describes the solution he chooses.
One of the major problems in work of this type is that no algorithmic
procedure exists to analyze a given sentence [ or paragraph] into it’s
expressions themselves and translate these into English text.
CONCLUSION
In the concept discourse we have tried to assemble some of the ingredient
which would be required to construct an account of how people use
language to communicate with each other.
We have paid partial attention to ingredients, which are dominant in the
literature. We have tried to show that discourse analysis have only a partial
understanding of even the most studied ingredients. There is a dangoures
tendency. Among established scholars as among student. To hope that
particular line of approach will yield ”the truth” about a problem.
It is very easy to make claims, which are too general and to strong. We have
tried to show that some of the established wisdom in the area of discourse
analysis may illuminate some aspects of discourse processing and of
language use but that all approaches open up yet more gaps in our
understanding.

INTRODUCTION TO THE PAPER
The paper deals with signification myth in literature the first section deals
with the “myth”. In general myth is story which is not “true and involves
myth is always concerned with creation” myth explains how some things
myth embodies feeling and concept.
The second section we have tried to significance myth in literature. in
generally myth is closer to literature. All literature equally and completely
mythical must be abandoned. A myth is traditional story. A myth represents
reality than the last section is literature we deal with this section literature.
How literature and myth complimentary to each other.
MYTH
In general a myth is a story which is not “true” and involves [as a rute]
supernatural being or any rate super human being “myth explains how some
thing come to exist myth embodies feeling and concept hence the
promethean or Herculean figure or the idea of Diana or the story of the
nature of Orpheus and erudite. Many explanations of the nature order and
comic forces.
Classical writers had a ready made mythology. Other have not been so
fortunate and some have felt a great need to invent or somehow contrive
mythology which shall be vehicle of their belief poet especially have
continued to fall back on the Greek and roman myths and lesser extent. Upon
Germanic and Scandinavian myth and same cases upon Chinese , Indian,
Egyptian and Latin American. Myth as a cartridge put it to the old instinct
brings back to old names. A good example of poet who has invented
mythology akin to the traditional kind is William Blake. He said that he felt
obliged to create system other wise he would be enslaved by someone else’s.
accordingly he combined his own visionary gleams with what he lifted from
established mythologies . plus elements of Christianity and ideas. From
Sweden Borg and Neoplaonism.
A more recent example is W.B. Yeats who was the in the fortunate position
of being able to make use of considerable stock of Celtics lore and legend of
amore or less mythical kind Yeats explained his mythology in a vision.
[1926]
Myth is a Greek word indicates . it story myth is narrative or poetic
literature.
SIGNIFICATION IN LITERATURE
It generally felt that literature should be brought closer to the myth. The
resources of naturalism and symbolism have become insufficient for modern
literature. The disciplines have been modified by the search for myth.
For twenty years of or more there has been a general feeling that creative
literature should be brought closer to myth. The resources of naturalism
aesthetician and symbolism have come to seem insufficient for modern
literature. These disciplines have been suppressed or at least modified by the
search for myth. Many author work in myth. Eliot, Yeats, Joyce etc. this
essay write to Richard chase . all literature was equally and completely
mythical must be abandoned. How literature becomes myth in primitive
culture and suggest how our literature. Especially our poetry. Myth has
become term . a myth is traditional story which may describe the origins of
the world of or people. A myth is attempt to explain mysteries. Supernatural
events and culture tradition sometime sacred in nature. A myth can involve
gods or other creatures. And a myth represents reality in dramatic. In
contemporary literacy analysis. Myth has become term. Not to be ignored
and myth critics like Robert graves.
Myth has become one of the most prominent in contemporary literary
analysis. The signification is the myth before listing character of the
signification one must reflect a little on the way in which it is prepared on
the modes of correlation of the mythical concept. The mythical one is
dealing with two different types of manifestation there is no need of an
unconscious in order to explain myth.
In simple system like the language. The signified cannot distort any thing at
all the myth is constituted by a sort of constantly moving turnstile which
presents alternately the meaning of the significance and its form. A language
object and metal language a purely signifying and purely imaging
consciousness. This alteration is so to speak gathered up a purely imaging
consciousness . the alteration is so to speak gathered up in the concept which
uses like an ambiguous signifier. At once intellective and imaginary arbitrary
and natural.
LITERATURE
Literature is as well known on occupation of school and universities not
ordinary average existence there it is regrettable part preparation not for the
experience of living. But the passing of examination. It is into this
inauspicious world. Literature has been thrust and in it that teachers students
and readers must try to live.
As we are all aware ideas and attitudes that were once considered settled
have during that last fifty years under gone profound changes traditionalists.
Naturally lament the idea of change but in word that hurring as fast as this
one there is little point in such wishful thinking. It is a matter of deep
personal regret. That the field of eighteenth century English literature.
Let us first see how literature becomes myth in primitive culture and how
our literature particularly our poetry may become mythical . myth must
always discover and accept preternatural myths always show us what is more
than ordinary world. Literature become mythical by overspreading the
natural with preternatural by capturing impersonal forces to fulfil certain
emotional need.
CONCLUSION
It generally felt that literature should be brought closer to myth. The
signification myth in literature deals with myth and literature. A myth is a
traditional story, which may describe the origins of the world or of people. A
myth is an attempt to explain mysteries. Supernatural event and culture
tradition sometime sacred in nature a myth can involve gods other creatures
and a myth represents reality in dramatic.
