A culturally influential sub-discipline within literary studies, literary theory has developed in parallel form in other arts and social science disciplines, so that one might refer to “cultural theory” or “social theory” as well, or even just to “theory.” It’s as familiar as the word “postmodern” and as tricky as “deconstruction.” What is it about? What is at stake? Theory is about rationality. This book’s title invites two different interpretations of what it might mean to say so. For many, the essence of literary theory is the unmasking and redescription of rationality in other terms. Put ironically, rationality is male; rationality is white; rationality is repression.... The book’s title, however, can also be read in a second way. On this reading, rationality itself is the essence of literary theory and central to literature, art, and society. Certain conceptions of what it entails can be problematic; the critique in the first way of reading the title remains relevant. Yet one can affirm rationality as integral to human flourishing, including the processes of producing, analyzing, and enjoying literature, art, and culture. This book provides readers with a clear overview of theory’s development and the abiding presence of its concern with the status of rationality across its forms.

Essential of Literature Thought, Feeling, Imagination and beauty are the essential ingredients of literature. Literature is one among the foremost powerful instruments for forming character. Writers teach us to understand man and know attribute. “Literature may be a record of the simplest thoughts.” - Emerson. Literature is that the artistic expression of thought which is replete with feeling and imagination. “Literature consists of all the books where moral truth and human passion are touched with a selected largeness, sanity and attraction of form.” - Lord Morley. Literature heightens our awareness of human life. Literature enables us to seem at nature with new eyes. Literature interprets with charm of language the experiences and spiritual intuitions of man. Writers teach us to understand man and know attribute. “Great literature is straightforward language charged with going to the utmost possible degree.” - Emerson. Literature could also be a record of man’s dreams and ideals, his hopes and aspirations, his failures and disappointments, his motives and passions, his experiences and observations. It appeals to the widest human interests and thus the only human emotions. It knows no nationality, nor any bounds save those of humanity. In a nutshell, thought, feeling, imagination and beauty of style and form are all equally essential to literature. Here we quote, Lowes Dickinson, “To feel, and in order to express, or at least to understand the expression of all that is lovely in Nature, of all that is poignant and sensitive in man, is to us in itself a sufficient end. A rose in a moonlight garden, the shadow of trees on the turf, almond blossom, scent of pine, the wine cup and guitar, these are the pathos of life and death- to all or any this stuff we are trained to reply , and therefore the response is what we call literature.

Understanding leadership is really about understanding life, and this starts with gaining an understanding of the self. Traditional management approaches, based on 'scientific' analysis, cannot contribute much towards understanding leadership. This book shows how leadership can be better understood by reading and interpreting masterpieces of world literature, and relating them to leadership issues. The book starts with Cervantes' masterpiece Don Quixote, whose main character asserts, 'I know who I am', and believes in himself. This is followed by other works to highlight important issues: ambition and purpose in Chinua Achebe's Things Fall Apart, faith vs. reason in Bertolt Brecht's The Life of Galileo, awakening the human spirit in Bernard Shaw's Saint Joan, authenticity in Girish Karnad's Tughlaq, and the old Sanskrit play Mudra Rakshasa by Visakhadatta, leaders and society in Arthur Miller's All My Sons, the role of illusions in Ibsen's The Wild Duck, taking a stand in A Dolls' House, the epic Mahabharata for development of perspective, and Herman Hesse's Siddhartha for understanding the process of self-development and realisation of one's potential. Based on the experience of the authors teaching a course on leadership for the last 20 years at the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad, this is an enlightening and illuminating read for both academicians and corporate leaders.

The book attempts at exploring the variegated essence of different ages and writers of English literature.It talks about the continuously changing intellectual activity within a nation. It tells all about English literature from beginning to the present times in a straight forward manner. It also contains short analyses of the major works of English literature and shows diversities and similarities of ideas and manifestos. Specially those works which reflect their times are given importance.Because they act like a mirror and help us understand the ages and general thoughts prevailing in those ages. It contains the knowledge of English literature that I acquired through reading and listening. I am adding just a few things by myself and I have tried to support my arguments with textual references. The reader may find this book adding a little bit to the existing knowledge. Effort has been made to make it interesting and easy to comprehend. Reading English poets and making their poetry a part of my understanding and feelings resulted in the five poems that I wrote. Last pages of the book cover those poems.

Not illustrated. 1873 edition. Excerpt: ...dull thoughts to count, count every day thy last. Quarles. The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together: our virtues would be proud, if our faults whipped them not; and our crimes would despair, if they were not cherished by our virtues. Shakespeare. Life! what is life? A shadow! Its date is but the immediate breath we draw; Nor have we surety for a second gale; Ten thousand accidents in ambush lie, A frail and fickle tenement it is; Which, like the brittle glass that measures time, Is often broke, ere half its sands are run. Jones. Our life a lamp that for a time burns bright; Our life a span when it is at the best; Our life assured of neither day nor night: Our life a smoke and unassured rest; Our life, our state, our stay, and vital breath, Subject unto the sudden call of death. Bowemcm. It is not growing like a tree In bulk doth make man better be; Or standing long an oak three hundred year, To fall a log at last, dry, bald, and sere. A lily of a day is fairer far in May, Although it fall and die that night; It was the plant and flower of light. In small proportions we just beauties see, And in short measures life may perfect be. Ben Jonson. LOVE. Love is the great instrument of nature, the bond and cement of society, the spirit and spring of the universe. Love is such an affection as cannot so properly be said to be in the soul, as the soul to be in that; it is the whole man wrapt up into one desire. Dr. South. A regular well-governed affection does not scorch; but, like the lamp of life, warms the breast with a gentle and refreshing heat. Shelley. Too light winning Makes the prize light. Shakespeare. Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind. Shakespeare. Loving goes by haps: Some Cupid kills with arrows, ..
