School is the best place to instill values . English Literature whether fiction,drama or poem has some value element positive or negative woven through characters .Students should be able to relate these values in their to day life and try to imbibe the good values and become happy and healthy citizens of tomorrow.

made them all” Substantiate this statement in the light of the poems “Snake” by
D.H. Lawrence and “Rhyme of ancient mariner” by S.T.Coleridge.

lies all your honour” are words of Alexander Pope. “Patol Babu”, a character in
Satyajit Ray’s “Patol Babu, the film actor” is a replica of Pope’s words. Prove the above
statement with anecdotes from the fiction Patol Babu, the film actor.
