“PERSONALISM OF LOVE” IN “DI QUA THUONG NHO” OF NGUYEN PHONG VIET

Love is my magical interrelationship with others on the basis of respect for the personalism. In the context that the “personalism communication” has been fading because human life of time “has been being devoured” by the virtual world; in the situation where the muse seems to be suffering from disgrace due to the rise of "trendy" forms of entertainment, Nguyen Phong Viet's "Di qua thuong nho" has created the phenomenon of "beckoning". What ever made the Otherness so strange attraction of these love poems ? In the perspective of receiving influenced by existential thinking, we realize that a dense density of existential codes is interwoven throughout the book of poems creating a world of love in Nguyen Phong Viet style. The poet has "painted" the Lover's heart with many rhythm variation; he sketched a personalism of love who is passionate love, and is determined to seek his journey to find true and free love. Most of "Di qua thuong nho" is the narrative of the sincere Lover, trendy with the world of art words, not "shocking" by the "sex" elements but very simple with the personalism.

Barnaby Rudge and the Jesuit Menace

This chapter considers the religious topicality of Barnaby Rudge by reading the novel in the context of the virulent anti-Catholicism of the late 1830s and early 1840s. Barnaby Rudge is deeply ambivalent towards Catholicism, a religion Dickens frequently railed against. The novel imparts a real sympathy for victimized Catholics. Yet throughout the book Catholicism is oddly constituted and Catholic characters are compromised. Intriguingly, Dickens’s portrait of Gashford, the malevolent secretary of Lord George Gordon, resonates strongly with contemporary anti-Jesuit writing and seems to play upon Protestant fears of Jesuits conspiring to infiltrate and destabilize England. Barnaby Rudge’s ambivalence towards the Catholic religion therefore offers a fresh lens through which to view Dickens’s complex relationship with the Catholic religion. Catholicism may hold a strange ‘attraction of repulsion’ for Dickens by providing him with a rich source of imaginative and narrative possibilities.
