What is Frye trying prove by giving an analogy of ' Physics to Nature' and 'Criticism to Literature'?
Frye has given the idea of Archetypal Criticism in very unique and different way by comparing the human emotions to to the different seasons.
1. Spring
He denotes spring to comedy because comedy is a birth, reveal and recognition for hero and Spring season is also a kind of birth of a new season.
2. Summer
He compare summer to the romance because in summer we can see culmination of life and in romance we can see sort of triumph, usually in the form of marriage.
3. Winter
Winter season denotes satire because of its darkness, like satire winter consider as a dark season for European people.
4.Automn
Autumn season denotes tragedy, as it reflects the dying stage of life, in this season all the leaves of the tree fallen down and tree becomes lifeless.
Share your views of Criticism as an organised body of knowledge. Mention relation of literature with history and philosophy.
According to northrop Frye any kind of literature or work must be analyze on the basis of history, and direct jump to any conclusion us not a fair practice.
Briefly explain inductive method with illustration of Shakespeare's Hamlet's Grave Digger's scene.
In this scene we saw lots of conversation between the diggers, they are even singing and mocking on Ophelia sin, whether she allowed to buried or not. the work of grave diggers becomes general, so they are not worried about death body.

Briefly explain deductive method with reference to an analogy to Music, Painting, rhythm and pattern. Give examples of the outcome of deductive method.
The deductive method of analysis deals with the established meaning of work from the general truth to particular truth. So to explain deductive method of analysis here Frye illustrates Music and Painting and furthermore he also conveys that Music and Painting are general branch of literature while Rhythm is essential in both so
Music: Inductive method
Rhythm: Deductive method

Refer to the Indian seasonal grid (below). If you can, please read small Gujarati or Hindi or English poem from the archetypal approach and apply Indian seasonal grid in the interpretation.
Kesudani kaliye besi
faganiyo laherayo
Ke ayo faganiyo, ke ayo faganiyo…
Rang bhari pichakari ude
haiye harakh na mayo,
Ke ayo faganiy, ke ayo faganiyo...
