A Study of Post Corona Scenario of World Literature Written in English with Special Reference to Thematic Concerns

Abstract

Some pivotal events in human history have had a lasting impact on how we view ourselves and how we interact with the world. Disasters like the two world wars, prior pandemic outbreaks of diseases like yellow fever, cholera, and plague, as well as innumerable variants of these ailments, have affected all of humanity. Numerous people have died and suffered as a result of these catastrophes. You may read accounts of these widespread infectious illnesses in the literature written during that time. The potential to communicate the unfathomable sorrow and anguish that man is capable of experiencing via literature has existed from the beginning of time and persists today. Despite assertions that science has advanced, the portrayal of human frailty is accurate. The current pandemic has shown man’s inherent weakness in an age where he seeks to rule the cosmos and asserts that his scientific achievements give him the power to suffocate nature. The circumstance has put the person in a position where he must assess his limitations and decide whether or not to return to his fundamentals. The new world order is gradually establishing its tenets and becoming the accepted way of doing things. The epidemic has slowed the unchecked march that man has been making toward materialistic self-gratification. The literature will discover a means to express this new reality and discuss how this new challenge has changed one’s life. This research examines the many alternative topics that fiction writers might choose from in the aftermath of the current pandemic.
