Abstract
The meaning of the words ‘world’, ‘good,’ and ‘misfortune’ has been given. The hypothesis, objectives and the sources of data collection have been mentioned. The present research on the select theme of ‘All world is good?’ is a justification study from the perspectives of misfortunes met by characters in the select novels of Candide and The Grapes of Wrath written by Voltaire and John Steinbeck respectively. It has been concluded with the view that the world seems to be not good for those who meet many misfortunes.
期刊介绍:
English is an internationally known journal of literary criticism, published on behalf of The English Association. Each issue contains essays on major works of English literature or on topics of general literary interest, aimed at readers within universities and colleges and presented in a lively and engaging style. There is a substantial review section, in which reviewers have space to situate a book within the context of recent developments in its field, and present a detailed argument. English is unusual among academic journals in publishing original poetry. This policy embodies the view that the critical and creative functions, often so widely separated in the teaching of English, can co-exist and cross-fertilise each other.
