Anderton's own system predicts that he will murder a man within the coming week, but he thinks that he is being framed. Anderton seeks to evade capture while investigating what has happened.

The technical developments, specifically impacting the domains of art, throughout time has enabled vast spectrum of literary individualism to grow and flourish amidst the geo-political variations, cultural dissections and psychological interpretations around the world. The introduction of woodcut graphic art allowed prints of scripts, written verses to be read rather than heard. Then lithography, etching and engraving, all allowed the reproductive process of writings to reach a new milestone in respect to knowledge distribution, which had allowed some artists to be able to take a stand for their own ideologies, famously such as William Blake. Similarly, printing press since 1400’s accelerated the culmination of mass level media consumption to an unprecedented level. The social constructs governing the mass’s behaviour, now finding a way to be legitimized under the umbrella of an established institution, begin forming the world around us into a systematic operation through newspapers, magazines, reports and other written articles. Such expansions led to career opportunities arise within the literary genre for article writers, editors, authors, illustrators, poets and translators. As we move towards the contemporary times of late 20th Century and early 21st century, the introduction of internet has formed a completely new platform for literary artists to be discovered and be branded within the eyes of society as published authors, not concerned with the intellectual or academic legitimacy of the content or its subsidiary theories. The paper shall try to divulge and reason whether there has been a mass level degradation of literary art amidst the radical democratic freedom of various digital platforms, which has evolved through eras into what it is today. We will be looking across genres and technological advances along with the corresponding reactions and criticisms from various literary art forms and establish whether the formation of a free-for-all literary platform glorifies the art or demeans the very reason of its existence in respect to its quality or quantity.
Keywords: Technology, Writing, Literary arts, Degradation, Freedom, Quality, Internet, Contemporary Society.

Yeats in his The Philosophy of Shelley's Poetry (1900) Symbols, in their exactness means the presence of a meaning which is more substantial than it seems on the surface and perhaps we owe it to symbols that there exist more than a singular meaning of the device that projects them. Uses of images and symbols are only one of the natural devices deployed in the art of poetry to reverberate and enhance the meaning of any piece of work into a non-linear one, to have multi-dimensional interpretations of it, ultimately to reach out to a broader audience with an even broader message. One of the most prominent and highly celebrated artists, who was the chief representative of the symbolist movement in English Literature, W.B Yeats has densely incorporated personalised symbols in his work in order to enhance the reality of present and mystery and richness of past. He uses an adapt arsenal of symbols across work that we shall try and map out while using the poems we have in our syllabus; No Second Troy (1916), The Second Coming (1920), Leda and the Swan (1924) and Sailing to Byzantium (1928) and some extensive investigation into the evolving author.

Male role models have often been concerned with advocating qualities that man must possess to be ... more Male role models have often been concerned with advocating qualities that man must possess to be a proud citizen of our society, a preacher of justice and constructed social morality. Over the course of evolving generations, male models have slowly turned into this blank slate where people fill in all of their toxic traits of existence and brand it in the name of masculinity. The term masculinity, which then evolves into ‘Hyper-masculinity’, gets a negative connotation due to all the influences of societal blockages such as consumerism, stereotypical applications of commodities and capitalism. By the end of the Vietnam War, the consumerist mind-set of the ‘baby-boomer’ generation in America decided to sell their glory of war through various product placements, in order to support capitalism and to fill their own pockets. By living a life handed to them by their former generation, this new generation of the millennials in 90’s started to think as if they are robbed of their chance to build their own life. This frustration of trying to build a new identity for themselves could have become a possibility to clash the society with anarchic fire back, formation of rebellions or something even worse, as it has been witnessed before in the 60’s. But instead, the possibility turned out to be a warning in the form of the 1997 novel Fight Club, before frustration was able to turn into vengeance. The paper shall divulge into the 1997 novel and its 1999 cinematic adaptation of the same name to better understand it by looking across great literary pieces on the movie and the book and constituting Fredrick Nietzsche’s concept of Übermensch (Literal translation is ‘Over-man’) with all its nihilistic account into defining the type of person that embodies the perfect qualities to live life with. The paper will reproach the subject to establish how ‘Fight Club’ reveals a new form of men, under the disguise of every generational batch that sweeps the former one under the carpet, through unique mediums and how the feeling of emasculation, hyper-masculinity and dystopian mind-sets often seems to surge upon untethered reigns mostly around the times of depression.
