I JPEng, IFEP topics for End Sem OE preparation

Some preparation around the following topics/concepts might be of use

  • Frame narrative
  • Characteristics of the Anglo Saxon poetry : 1. From Wiki 2. An excellent comprehensive ppt - copy and paste the following link in the URL : wwwf.countryday.net/FacStf/US/marting/ShakespodosphearePodcasts/AngloSaxon/Anglo-Saxon%20Poetry.pps
  • Sonnet
  • Renaissance
  • Characteristics of Shakespeare's sonnets
  • Romanticism
  • Epic
  • Mock-epic
  • Elizabethan theatre
  • Restoration
  • Comedy
  • Comedy of manners
  • Restoration comedy
  • Tragedy
  • Shakespearean tragedy
  • Sentimental comedy
  • History of essay
  • Graveyard Poets
  • Characteristics of the poems of important English Romantics
  • Origin and gowth of novel genre


... and the good/bad news is ... NO QUESTIONS ON PRINT CULTURE - NATION-STATES!!!!!!


Abey has asked for material on the topics put up above. Do not know if time permits. Most of the topics like, tragedy have material in "A Glossary of Literary Terms" by MH Abrams. The reference section has a copy. UG section also might have. Look for the topics not on the content page or alphabetically. Instead look up in the index section at the end of the book.


Alternatively, you can also post your online finds in the comment section below. What say u?


PS: Passing of this info to your classmates might help them

  14. I am not sure. Abey from IFEP told me today that you have to pay a fine of Rs 100 for every day from the last date of downloading the hall ticket and get the hall ticket from the Examination office. Abey might be able to tell you more details.

  20. Blank verse is a type of poetry, distinguished by having a regular meter, but no rhyme. In English, the meter most commonly used with blank verse has been iambic pentameter (like that which is used in Shakespearean plays).
