My view to the questions about the Archetypal criticism by Northrop Frye are below:

1) what is archetypal criticism? What does the archetypal critic do?

                         first of all archetype word menace something that serves as a model or a basis for making copies, for example, some mold like then other is make is not original like, potter is make brick first is mold is archetype then other brick is copy there are not originality. Here in the text in the golden bough Frazer identifies with shared practices and mythological beliefs between primitive religions and modern religions and modern religions. Frazer argues that the Death rebirth myth is present in almost all culture mythologies and is acted out in terms of growing seasons and vegetation. The myth is symbolized by the death and rebirth.


2) What is Frye trying prove by giving an analogy of ' Physics to Nature' and 'Criticism to Literature'?

                         “Physics to nature “and criticism to literature archetype literature say literature is not taught progressively. about the learning of literature knowledge in surrounding low like,
Physic is not organize body like, biology, chemistry, geology, literature is not language is criticism like physics and other we have not desire literature is become science but it is become criticism casual value judgment historical think in the pure human.


3) Share your views of Criticism as an organized body of knowledge. Mention relation of literature with history and philosophy.

                       History deals with the events of past and the actions, while Philosophy deals with idea and shows the way to wisdom. Using History and Philosophy both, the writer creates literature. Thus, literature is connected with History and Philosophy.

4) Briefly explain inductive method with illustration of Shakespeare's Hamlet's Grave Digger's scene.

 Inductive method – 
Northrop Frye gives example of Gravedigger’s scene from “Hamlet” to explain this method. To study this scene we need to go step by step backwards to study this method: 
In this scene hamlet gravedigger scene in love of Ophelia, and he was died for our beloved in the soliloquy.


5) Briefly explain deductive method with reference to an analogy to Music, Painting, rhythm and pattern. Give examples of the outcome of deductive method.

Deductive method in the literature is both sometime music space how story narrate or tall, what is told is meaning how narrative is. In the method goes general to particular.


6) Refer to the Indian seasonal grid (below). If you can, please read small Gujarati or Hindi or English poem from the archetypal approach and apply Indian seasonal grid in the interpretation.

As per Indian seasonal grid we have six seasons. They are: -
1.) Vasant Ritu or spring
2.) Grishma Ritu or summer
3.) Varsha Ritu or Monsoon
4.) Sharad Ritu or Autumn
5.) Hemant Ritu or Pre-winter
6.) Shishir / Shita Ritu or Winter

Hear portrait the autumn is over and coming of spring there is atmosphere is very nice it is instrument of Indian seasonal grid season.


Thank you....!
