Hello friends.
Here is my own point of view regarding to the very famous short story by a famous Irish writer, named James Joyce. Who was born in Dublin on 2 February 1882. In 1904 he left Ireland, renounced Catholicism and the Irish liberation movement.
Dubliners (1914) a collection of Joyce"s many short stories. Then latter he also wrote this story in a little fictional work as a Novella type. Cause of he try to convey his ideas related to love in that time of Modernism.
■Starting of the Story:
In the setting, we can see the face of street, than further Joyce make the face of Street with blind emotion to use the blindness of, life of the Narrator. This is the hint that what the Narrator, an unnamed boy is feeling like emotionless Life. He used the word for blind street, "imperturbable".
■ Uses Natural elements for description:
Further we can see that joyce uses the Natural elements using for,about the short days of winter.....
"The space of the sky above us was the colour of ever -changing violet and towards it the lamps of the street lifted their feeble lanterns."
"The cold air stung us and we played till our bodies glowed..."
Then, from the description about what the Narrator felt before he fell in love, Joyce try to shown that an unnamed boy felt everything which was surrounded by his, was in dullness and darkness. While actually he was not real fall in love
■The Love:
When , further we introduced with Magan's sister, there are the chage in the life of Narrator. He Note about her figure and hair, He described it that,
"Her dress swung as she moved her body and the soft rope of her hair tossed from side to side."
A crush of the Narrator on her, when a love is put the person on the position of warm thinking about his or her love and amor adoration of a particular person get more emotionality on his/her life. So, it's clearly noticable by any reader that the protagonist of the story is gone physically attract to his love! Or to her body? Further he say,
"I didn't know whether I would ever speak to her or not or,if I spoke to her, how I could tell her of my confuse adoration."
So, here the narrator is only a teenager, that's whihe gone physically attract with Mangan's sister.
💟If Joyce Mack a Soulful Love story, after that what's the reactions regarding to the characters❓
Yes. If Joyce make a Soulful Love story, because of he use here a physical attraction. The Narrator is start to going himself in the age of love, he not enter totally right way?
So, if he will put the narrator as a young and passionest boy for a Soulful Love, there would be totally opposite side of this story. Soulful Love is love about precision and attractions has Materialistic. In my understanding, here's the story revealed as Materialism. Cause of here the love means just attraction!Further boy feel love very deeply and his mind and heart also feel the flowing of loveable liquid inside them.
In the nearly end of the story, when a Mangan's sister talk with him and ask about Araby Street that " Was he going to Araby?" And she also tells that " It would be a splendid bazaar!" And she would love to go. Narrator tell her that if will go he definitely bring something for her.There is no planning and not actually known about the street but there is something to do for her it's just only in his mind that there is something to do only for her.
Then Joyce also use the term that Streem of Consciousness through the narrator. The story is actually start now. Late answering, his uncle's fussing are also noticable for how his desire become unsuccessfully described. When he gose for Street, it was not completely closed but some few shopes were open. But there were not actually perfect for her.
■ Darkness:
As we know about earlier of the story that narrator described the street as the darkness. And actually at the end there are also. This is the light is out on that Bazaar. He go to the bazaar for bring some for his love but there is no chance or cause of late timing he can't bring out something for his some one special. But here the changes are continually run away but The Darkness is still running at the end of the story. There is also a little different between the beginning darkness or the end of the darkness. The chang is about his loneliness.
My owe thinking about the different of this two points is that....
Yes Friends. If we compared between the Soulful Love VS Attraction then waht is the turn of the story..? Actually attraction is just owing to our changing of body hormones and soulfulness it means just sacrifices. Love is not depend on Materialism but actually it is bring out something new or special out of Materialism. Which something new or fresh thing for his or her love.
What about your thinking regarding to Soulful Love.....?💟
Thank you.
