Poem: La Belle Dame Sans Mercy


La Belle Dame Sans Mercy is originally written by John Keats but title borrowed from Alain Chartier’s La Belle Dame Sans Mercy, 15th century poem. It is a ballad and also follows the characteristics of it for example, simplicity of language, absence of detail and supernatural power. Title itself suggest that this lady is beautiful but without mercy. May be Keats has experience of pain of love and pleasure.

Here in this poem story of one knight and beautiful lady. First hi is very attractive towards her outer beauty and sings a song of her praise. He praises her long hair, cheeks compares with rose, her foot and it is light, her eyes is wild, and then he made for her garland of roses.   But at the end he realizes that this lady is beautiful but without mercy. She uses the supernatural power through her magic and did this.


I studied “Archetypal Criticism” by Northrop Frye, in this criticism he used many myths, social rituals, dreams and primordial images. Here one example also we can see here and it is ‘Female Fatal’. Fall of woman takes place and some violent and sexual desires of women reveals here.

Stray Lesson of B.Ed in Semester-1

Experience of Stray Lesson in Primary School     In B.Ed First I came to know about Micro Teaching, then Bridge Lesson and then Stray Lesson . Stray lesson was given by me on 9, 10, 11 and 12 August, 2016. It was very wonderful and memorable experience for me because students of this were very adjustable.   In this lesson all the skills are used by the trainee-teacher. Motivation skill, Questioning skill, Illustration skill, Reinforcement skill used by them. Time of this lesson is 30 minutes . Numbers of students are 35 to 40 .

Second Teaching Method of B.Ed: Bridge Lesson

Bridge Lesson   Generally, we think that process of teaching is very easy. But it covers so many things and step by step we have to follow it. In  video games  there are levels to win the game. Same type of levels we can see in B.Ed. First step of teaching is Micro-teaching and second step is Bridge-lesson.   Bridge lesson it means all the skills are jointed. It is one type of pool or one type of chains. One chain connected with another chain and it’s make long bridge. Ratio of students is 15 to 17 and 15 to 20 minutes trainee-teacher has to teach. It is one type of practice so within the students we have to do it. According to “Lesson-Plan” (Paath-Ayojan) we have to teach. If such thing not included in it it’s not necessary because all the things we can’t write on it. Space of Lesson-Plan is very narrow.   In 15 minutes all the skills are used by the teacher. One main important thing is that first turn always comes with Motivation Sk...
