Structuralism and litery criticism : Gerard Genette
Being a structuralist critic, how would you analyse literary text or TV serial or Film? You can select any image or TV serial or film or literary text or advertisement. Apply structuralist method and post your write up on your blog. Give link of that blog-post in the comment section under this blog.
=) In literary theory, Structuralism is an approach to analyzing the narrative material by examining the underlying invariant structure .There are many Structuralist critics like Ferdinand Saussure, Gerard Genette, Roland Barthes, Claude Levi-Strauss etc. Structuralist critics found basic common structure in every work. As all the human beings have a same structure from inside, similarly literature has basic structure and it is same everywhere whether it movies, TV serials or advertisement etc.
In my opinion various structures could be find behind particular genres of literature and movies such as love story, revenge story, comedy.
Revenge :-
In any kind of revenge stories either in books or in movies there are different stories, scenario but the structure of that story would always remain same.
Examples :
=) Rustom
=) Sholey
=) Kabil
Many other movies in which we can find same structure of revenge that somehow antagonist kill/hurt protagonist's relative and then protagonist take revenge to antagonist.
Love story :-
In India there are many kind of conflict like class conflict between upper class and lower/poor class people, religion conflict, culture conflict and that is what the structure of Indian Bollywood cinema in the genre of love story. there would always one boy/girl belongs to a wealthy family and fall in love with a boy/girl who belongs to a poor family. and other is that the group/culture/conflict of boy and girl remain different, so their relatives oppose this love and story ends either with their Death or their happy marriage life.
Examples :
=) Dhadak
=) Dil to pagl hai
=) Devdas
=) Kasoti zindagi ki
Comedy :-
In television cinema there are many popular comedy shows, movie and serials. They are produced irony and satire on the society. And this type of show is very useful for children and also illness people. Comedy through our mood is changed and feel like freshness. There are many comedies like...
Examples :
=) Dhamal
=) Entertainment
=) The Kapil sharma show
=) Tarak mehta ka oltah chasmah
