"The Hairy Ape"

 The Hairy Ape

Introduction

              Eugene O'Neill was born in Broadway hotel room in New York city on October 16,1888. He was first American dramatist and receive the Noble prize for literature. All of O'Neill play are written from a personal point of view and reflect on the tragedy of the human condition. His plays deal specifically with the American tragedy, rooted in American history and social movements.

            Eugene O'Neill

                      Yank is the protagonist of the play who is portrayed as a British and laborer. Who search for a sense of belonging in a world controlled by the rich like: Nazareth steel. The play is divided into eight scenes and there are many laborers like yank in the play with some high class characters as well those characters are Mildred Douglas, her Aunt, The secretary at I.W.W. [Industrial works of the world]. A Gentleman, Second Engineer etc. Yank's follow workers are paddy, Long and other firemen. So, from the very beginning O'Neill has started presenting the class different with the use of language and other description. 

O'Neill prominent concern

          O'Neill real intention behind writing such a mini play is to only figure out the situation of oppressed industrial working people or class. No doubt, the play is the representation of classification but it also demonstrates how the working class people are treated by their upper class people. Mildred Douglas is from upper class society and she behaves very ruddy with yank and call him "A filthy beast" Which makes him undergoes a Crisis of identity. Before that yank feels that he is  the master of the ship as he is the leader of his working group and engine of the ship "Transantlantic Ocean liner". This play also presents how the society is divided into two parts specifically

  The upper class and the lower class

Moreover, the rich are becoming richer while the poor are getting. Poorer and O'Neill has drawn the reader's attention towards the major problem of the working class with the portrayal of firemen that the world is having the only desire to be master in life. It can be also considered as, 

  "The Master-Slave Mentality" 

       Because each character in the drama of life desires to be master in his or her life. Master want to control their servant and slaves become conscious about their condition and also try to suppress their slaves or the persons who are inferior to them. For example, in the play,Yank, through he is a slave a worker, tries to handle his fellow firemen by considering himself as a team leader and the master of ship because he thinks that because of his stoking the cool, the ship moves and he drives the huge ship. This is how he wishes to be a master of slaves.

                Eugene O'Neill has perhaps, clearly demonstrated the American condition during his time. That period it also called industrialized one as if was highly affected by it and the the condition of laborers, because of this industries become pitiable. They were not having their belongingness something special which they can call their own or identity itself.

             

                     The masters are just like the "Ring-Master" and the slaves like yank, paddy, Long and other are just like their pet animals who are played by their ring masters. People like  Nazareth Steel exploit their workers who belong to industrialist society.

                      Throughout the play yank searches for his real identity but finds none. O,Neill indirectly asks very significant or suggestive question like: What is more important being dirty as a slave or being filthy or the masters them selves? Where does their filthiness come from? From their body or mind? It is mind then neither yank nor other firemen but the upper class people are filthy. So for as their thinking regarding superiority is concerned. 

             As the low class people do not have their own belongingness, if also shows the question which are raised to their existence. All the workers like paddy, Long, yank etc. Consider that transatlantic ocean liner as their house. They do not have their own house but their work place become their livelihood is something serious problem caused in their life. Though they are free they are bound by their masters so, it can be said that they are:

        "Free  without freedom"

conclusion

    As the industrial environment is presented as toxic ans dehumanizing, O'Neill present how the laborers are seen by the master also presents how Humanity is subsiding in this materialistic era. Yank has also been interpreted as representative of the human condition, alienated from nature by his isolated consciousness, unable to find belonging in any social group or environment. This play also reveals how deeply and rigidly class is culture and the cultural and financial bounderious it erects. 

 

"Satire"

           Nearly everybody is a satirist in a small way: The school boy who writes rude words about his teacher: The comedian, the television who does a life list imitation of the prime minister, even you and I, sitting in the coffee shop and complaining about the weakens of the world and the foolishness of our leaders the real satirist however different from most of us, both in the strength of his feeling and in having the wide in genius to express it in novel, poem or play. He must have some of the qualities of the moralist or the preacher and the frown- because the best way of attacking weakness and foolishness is by lashing at them.

                It can be argued that a light hearted satire is more effective in the end then the fierce indignation.

               The example of Light hearted satire can be seen in Chaucer’s "The foliage to Canterbury tales" and in Shakespearean comedies like 

                "Love's labor’s lost"

"As you like it"

               In "trolleybus" nearly all ecclesiastical persons are describes in a good tempered way with a satirical teach, In "Love's labor’s lost", there is an amazing satire an what is now called "The six war"  there is much fun at the expend of foolishly effected courtier sapid school masters. "As you like it" Satires various fashionable futures of the 1590 the chief weapon's of a satirist are wide, Irony, infection. The simplest among them is invention defined in the dictionary as

 "A violence attend in words" The best example of invective can be found in Dryden’s make face. He Know where in Dryden directly attests his contemporary writer like shade well. When it is used by the satirist it must be control by good ease test and law of libel can some time cause serious difficult people. Who are a lie and recognizable, as Aldus Huxley did in "point counter point", and as Hillier Bells did add about the same time in his lines to "Don"[professor]. It should be explain that "Don" is a word used in must English university and especially in oxford and Cambridge for professors and other high level teachers. The particular Don in the poem was a famous historian, who had quarreled with Bell's friend G.K. Chesterton by reputing the short hear sound "Don" over and over again he emphasized his contempt as though with the blows of hammers.

"Don clerical, Don ordinary,

Don self absorbed and solitary:

Don here and there, Don epileptic, Don middle class

Don phonetic, Don dull, Don brutish,

Don peclantic, Don hieratical, Don bad,

Don sportive, Don three corers mad"

              This peace has the spirit and energy which makes fine inventive.

        Irony is equally effective weapon of a satirist but demands a bit cindering to make it out chocker’s irony in describing "The wife of bath" is less perceptible: it is difficult to understand weather choker advice his fashionable women or criticize her in the following line

"The was a wealthy women throughout her life: husbands at churl door she had five"

               There are many satirists like pope, swift, Dryden, Charles etc. Whose writing directly or indirectly presents their satirical views?

For example- Charles Dickens has demonstrated his     satirical opinions during his era, in his writings like 

                                    "Oliver twist

                                "Hard times"

                       "David copper field"

                He strongly satirizes over the idea of child laborer shaft, another prominent figure’s is swift. Who has presented his satirical views in his well known writing work, "Gulliver’s travels" in which he satirizes over the political atmosphere during his ere. John Dryden most important satire is

                       "Absalom and Acidophiles"

               Alder Huxley- "Brave new world

               Allen Pop- "The rape of the lock"

Conclusion

             To sum up, one can say that satire is the medium of making the readers of writer aware of the reality; moral values and the genuine reason for producing it.

My view about Poem- A prayer for my daughter

                           William Butler Yeats

         William Butler Yeats is the most celebrated Irish poet. He is a poet, dramatist and a prose writer. He also has won noble prize in literary field. His poems in English literature, W.B.Yeats initially love beautiful intelligent women with intensive nature he try his best to win her heart but was rejected. Then he finally married George hayed less. The poem "A prayer for my daughter" has been written by Yeats addressing his daughter Anne Butler Yeats.

William Butler yeats

           The poem start with the stanza that describes the gloomy that is there in the mind of poet for his daughter like any other further W.B.Yeats it also worried about safe and secured future of his daughter. He keeps walking and paying for the young child in the first line of the first stanza there is a word "Strom", which not only described this storm that is outside the house it also stand for the problem of up-coming years. William Butler talks about the future years of his daughter which should be without obstacles.

        In the Second stanza the poet praise for his daughter like around an hour. He mentions about wind of the sea like wind of the same way the situation or the difficulties that will come in his daughters life will also affect not only his daughter but also members around her talks about the future of his daughter. His future years seem to come dancing to the copayment of a drum which is beating franticly. These years are seen by yeats imagination which images out of murderous innocence of the sea. In other words the poet compares innocence of the sea with his innocence of his daughter's life. The sea seems to be innocence but sea is capable of given birth to howling storm, which are capable of talking anyone's life.

         In the Third stanza the very first line suggest wary of Yeats, He prayed to God that

      "May she be granted beauty and yet not beauty to make a stranger eyes, distraught"

       Thus his prayer that God should grant his daughter with beauty but the beauty of his daughter should not distract strangers mind and her beauty should not ruin natural kindness of his daughter. Yeats wants his daughter to process with some qualities so that can be able to face. The future years independently with confidence her beauty should not be of a kind which many either make her proud of her beauty or distract strangers Ming. The result will be that the pride will make her lose all her kind feelings to have excessive beauty is sometimes mind distracting. Because one cannot make right choose out pride of beauty and can never find a friend in the true sense.

       She should not be like those crafty women who employed their charms "To use people to their advantage”. He does not want his daughter to fail in choosing the persons with whom, she will be friendly.

           In the Fourth stanza the poet mention about the Helen of Troy. Who was a very famous for her beauty all around the world she was consider as goddess of beauty and in Greek myths. She was considering the most beautiful women in the world. Who married unknown deserving person by mentioning Helen W.B.Yeats described his worry as his daughter should not fail to choose right man for her. His daughter should marry a person of aristocratic family who may take her to a home, where tradition and ceremony feel the atmosphere. Yeats shudders at the thought of his daughter being another Helen. Who couldn't Helen being unfaithful as she was so beautiful, she had not her further to guide her, and therefore she made a wrong choose instead of marring a handsome man. Yeats virtuous and matching her social standing, she married a fool.

         Poet expresses his grief how a beautiful women often choose "A crazy salad" undeserving husband to go with their meal [richness of the man]. The poet does not want his daughter to be one such woman.

         In the Fifth stanza the poet worms his daughter to posses the qualities which help her to win peoples heart he wants teach his daughter courtes and he also want to teach his daughter that "Love is earnd by those" who are less beautiful than he talks about many foolish man. Who drove around beautiful women and they think that they are loved by their wives but they hardly can see the beneath reality they just get attracted towards outer beauty. The poet wants his daughter to passes both inner and outer beauty because with the passing time you many lose outer beauty but your inner beauty will retell the end. And he also suggest to men not to get attracted by outer beauty.

       In the Six stanza the poet wants his daughter to be like a flourishing three and to grow like a beautiful women and he wants the beauty may stay with her for the rest of life. Her thought should be peaceful, positive and pure like that of a little "linnet bird" like the bird she must not want more than what is natural and normal. She should not find please in quarrel and in chase. She always should feel satisfied with what she has, he wants his daughter to settled down well in one place like "Green laurel".  Therefore this stanza descried the qualities that the poet’s daughter should passes.

         In the Seven stanza the poet mentions about his love once the poet feel love with wrong women. She did not understand loyal and true feeling of the poet and because of that the poet's mind dried up and he also talks about how his heart felled with haltered due to the wrong women he loved. He considers this as evil think than he tells that if there is no haltered in the persons mind, that person will be fortunate abed safe. He wants his daughter to passes the kindnesses that can nver allow any evil thing to happen.

             In the Eight stanza the poet talks about intellectual hatred which is the worse think he doesn't want his daughter to become opinionated. He has made a direct contrast between quite nature and opinionated mind. He does not want his daughter to be opinionated as she may lose her loved once out of rigidness. Therefore he prayed to God to bless her with quite nature.

         In the Ninth stanza the poet talks about "Radical innocence". He tells that a soul become innocent when all anger and hatred has been driven away. And without hatred a women learns to be happy soothed and respect her even when everyone around her goes against her or scowls. She still can be happy and therefore to maintain the "radical innocence" is very important as it soothes your soul.

          In the Last stanza the poet wants his daughter to marry a groom who takes her to a house with custom and ceremony. There should be not space for haltered and arrogance. So, that his daughter can live peacefully and by marrying secured in her house ceremony should be like rich horn and custom should be laurel tree.

           Thus, the poet wishes all the happiness for her daughter and at the same time he wants his daughter to be full of merited.

           The very meaning of heathen is the person, who does not belong to fix or particular class or community. And the story reveals that Otoo is considered to be the heathen as he does not belong to the suppressed class though he is from the African American class. The African people are suppressed by the whites and they are dragged to their own class but they are considered to be slaves. This story also demonstrates the idea of Master-Slave relationship. The whites believe that the blacks are born to be merely slaves and that is why they are forced to be African Christion in which Otoo remains different from them and thus, he becomes the heathen of that community.

               Jack London given his views over how society creates injustice to the people. If Otoo does not belong to his christian community when society does not belong to the religion named ''HUMANITY''  And it does not lot the human beings live their life the way they want to.
