C. Presenting What is historical criticism?

new lessons
Historical
criticism is
the historical
approach to
literary
criticism. It
involves
looking
beyond the
literature at
the broader
historical
and cultural
events
occurring
during the
time the
piece was
written.
Historical criticism is the historical
approach to literary criticism. It
involves looking beyond the
literature at the broader historical
and cultural events occurring during
the time the piece was written.

An
understandin
g of the
world
the author
lived in
(events,
ideologies,
culture,
lifestyle etc.)
allows for a
more
comprehensi
ve
understandin
g of the
work.
An understanding of the world the
author lived in (events, ideologies,
culture, lifestyle etc.) allows for a
more comprehensive understanding
of the work.

The Historical Approach is

divided into two types.

The Traditional Historicism

approach involves understanding the
events and experiences surrounding
the composition of the work,
especially the life of the author, and
 using the findings to interpret that
work of literature.

While, New historicism is a

movement in literary criticism that
began in the 1980s. Its main claim is
that the themes and meaning of
literature are not universal and
cannot be derived from the text alone.
Rather, they are the product of the
author's time and cultural situation.

What are the considerations in

writing a historical approach?
• Author's biography and social
background.
• When the work was written.
• Ideas circulating at the time of
writing.
• Events occurring at the time of
writing.
• What the work meant to the people
who first read it.

So, basically historical literary

criticism focuses mainly on the
subject's relevance, relationship with,
and influence upon the historical
period in which it was written. A
historical critic looks at how the time
period influenced the writing of the
work as well as how events in the
authors life influenced him or her.

ANALYSIS

One of the things that makes Disney

films so sad, is that there is a lot of
death, loneliness and general misery
involved in those heartwarming
family films, which often revolves
around children being separated from
parents.
In case you hadn't really paid it any
There's Elsa and Anna from Frozen,
Cinderella, Bambi, Penny in The
Rescuers, Simba in The Lion King,
Lilo & Stitch, Mowgli in The Jungle
Book, Todd in The Fox and the
Hound, Snow White, Quasimodo in
 thought, there really are a LOT of The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Nemo,

separated from their parents, or have
one or more of their guardians die.

Name some Disney characters that

have these background stories.

There is another, more tragic

explanation, though. In 1938, Walt
Disney was at the height of his
success and finally was able to buy a
house for his parents.

He had the studio guys come over

and fix the furnace, but when his
mum and dad moved in, the furnace
leaked and his mother died. The
housekeeper came in the next
morning and pulled his mother and
father out on the front lawn. His
father was sick and went to the
hospital, but his mother died.

He never spoke about that time

because he personally felt
responsible because he had become
so successful that he said, 'Let me
buy you a house.' It's every kid's
dream to buy their parents a house
and just through a strange freak of
nature – through no fault of his own –
the studio workers didn't know what
they were doing. There's a theory,
and I'm not a psychologist, but he
was really haunted by that. That idea
that he really contributed to his
mum's death was really tragic.

Author’s Background Antoine de

Saint-Exupery was born in Lyons,
France, in 1900. He considered
himself a pilot above all else. For
twenty years, he flew everything
from cartography missions to
commercial airlines, and flying
 occupied a significant place in his
philosophical essays and fantasy
writings. Saint-Exupéry began
writing The Little Prince during
World War II, after Germany’s
invasion of France. It was forced him
to give up aviation and flee to New
York. In addition to his torturous
thoughts of the war in Europe, having
to leave his homeland and no longer
being able to fly planes affected
Saint-Exupéry deeply. In its
glorification of childlike innocence,
The Little Prince is also an
16 indictment of the spiritual decay
Saint-Exupéry perceived in humanity.
Some of the story of The Little Prince
uses events taken from Saint-
Exupéry’s own life. In Wind, Sand
and Stars,his 1939 account of his
aviation adventures, he recollects a
crash landing he was forced to make
in the Sahara desert. In his
wanderings across the desert, Saint-
Exupéry had a number of
hallucinations, including an
encounter with a fennec, a type of
desert sand fox that bears a
striking resemblance to the fox
depicted in The Little Prince.
