Comics in Shakespearean Plays Alam, Tahmina Comedy is commonly taken to mean that species of dramatic composition which ends happily. Dante name his epic divine comedy, because it closes on a happy and joyous note, through it begins adversely and to be more precise, terribly. But the happy ending cannot be regarded as the differentia of comedy. There are countless dramas that end in a fairly happy manner, still they are not comedies. Thus the problem plays of Shakes[are such as measure of measure, Troilus and Cressida and all's comedies. Before considering the qualities in the work of any particular author, it may be genuinely profitable to inquire into the very nature of what is known as the comic generally. It is truly very difficult to evince the true source of the risible. According to Aristotelian point of view, the comic or the risible lies in degradation. Aristotle believed that men are in comedy made worse than they are, and become consequently object of laughter.

Use of Color in Thomas Hardy’s “Tess of the D’Urberville & Return of the Native” Bhuiyan, Khodeza In the life of Thomas Hardy’ by Thomas Hardy’ he describes how his life at that time was a life twisted of three stands the professionals life the scholar life and the rustic life combined in the twenty four of one day. Critics differ as to which of hardy's novel is his greatest. "Tess of the D’Urberville & Return of the Native”. Color is the reflection of that destiny. We know, character may be destiny this is true of shakespeare but in hardy destiny is character. This destiny is reflected by red color the color of blood. Hardy uses the conventional symbolism of red in characterization, sometimes ironically. Red is used to reveal a characters emotions motives and fate. While color symbolizes purity honesty truth and love, green for innocence, pink is a mixture of innocence and sinfulness and black for death.
