Hello,
Welcome readers,
Here I'm going to tell about a Task which is given by Dr.Dilip Barad sir...
The Tasks activity is our routine schedule and task is our acedamic syllabus.
Before i start the task....I'm going to tell somthing about task.
Literature:- Is a critical part of social and it's also assumed to think about it as a literature student.
There is a two (2) activity task...
{1} differentiate general characteristics of Renaissance literature with that of Reformation / Restoration or Neo-classical or Romantic or Victorian or Modern literature?
{2} Write in brief about Edmund Spencer or Ben Jonson or Francis Bacon or on any one of their works.
☝☝☝these are 2 tasks...
Let's discuss about first task...
There is a task about a One common age Renaissance age which is a compare with any age that given in list of task question....so,I'm going to comparing with "RESTORATION AGE".
Please scroll the page...
The Renaissance was a fervent period of European cultural, artistic, political and economic “rebirth” following the Middle Ages. Generally described as taking place from the 14th century to the 17th century.
The restoration age (1660-1700) and it's marks the beginning of a new era in the life.
Restoration age is also known as Dryden...because Dryden was a Representative writer of this period and also Monarchy was Restored in england and second writer was jahon Bunyan.
beginning of the 14th century, Europeans made few advances in science and art in Renaissance age.
King Charles-|| in 1660 Marks the begging of new era in Restoration age.
Mainly we are talking about restoration there is a begining of science and English poetry and drama should follow the style of French writers.
Restoration age was complete breaking of ties with the Renaissance literature.
It reflected spirit of the age and spirit of corruption and moral laxity are reflected in literature.
During Renaissance in 14th century there is a HUMANISM began to get momentum in italy.
And during Restoration charles-|| 's followers enjoyed Gay life in Franc during their exile.
people should embrace human achievements in education, classical arts, literature and science during Renaissance.
During restoration....Restored of
~ Poetry
Poetry was devieded into three forms....Political stairs
Doctrinal poems
The fables
~ Prose writing style with (simple,clear,ludic,biblical,colloquial)
~ Drama (opening theaters during Restoration)
And also write...
~ Heroic Tragedy (Love,conquest)
~ Comedy Manners (Fashionable,interesting,sex,marriage)
Art, architecture and science were closely linked during the Renaissance. In fact, it was a unique time when these fields of study fused together seamlessly.
For instance, artists like da Vinci incorporated scientific principles, such as anatomy into their work, so they could recreate the human body with extraordinary precision in Renaissance age.
Restoration age is imitation of the Ancient masters.
Famous journeys were taken by Ferdinand Magellan, Christopher Columbus, Amerigo Vespucci (after whom America is named), Marco Polo, Ponce de Leon, Vasco Núñez de Balboa, Hernando De Soto and other explorers. (Renaissance Exploration)
REALISM AND FOMALISM (Restoration)
Restoration literature realistic.
Dryden accepted the excellent rule for his prose and adopted the heroic couplet.
Writers developed for malism of style-mathematical elegance,miscalled classism...which ruled the English literature for next century.
So....in the brief I'm going to ask about the ages that i was wrote below...
Renaissance age or literature about 14th to the 17th century, considered the bridge between the Middle Ages and Modern history. It started as a cultural movement in Italy in the Late Medieval period and later spread to the rest of Europe.
Restoration literature is the English literature written during the historical period commonly referred to as the English Restoration, which corresponds to the last years of Stuart reign in England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland.
Ok....so, here I'm going to write a second Task....👇👇

On returning to England, he became an actor and playwright, experiencing the life of a strolling player. He apparently played the leading role of Hieronimo in Thomas Kyd’s The Spanish Tragedy By 1597 he was writing plays for Philip Henslowe, the leading impresario for the public theatre.
