Respected
Sir,
1. Narration
of studied Paradise Lost and The Da Vinci Code, In Paradise Lost Milton wrote
on Eve and Adam. Eve is responsible for fall of Adam. Paradise Lost tries to
show rationally with given Eve some space. But it also decline women. We can
say about ‘The Da Vinci Code’ breaks human faith with showing history of
Christianity. Here Brown’s novel Da Vinci Code has all historical issues and
reference strong evidence. Mary Magdalene’s role in the Bible is very short but
her role in ‘The Da Vinci Code’ is rather long and important one. Brown is
trying to prove that Mary Magdalene was the favorite of all the Disciples of
Christ.
2. When we study all these characters then we
come to know that directly or indirectly these all characters are objectified
in the films. If we see the films like 'Hamlet', 'Frankenstein', and 'The
Scarlet Letter' then we will find that these characters are more objectified
physically and serve as the male-gaze characters. We can see vast difference in
the characters of films and novels. But it is quite good that the character of
Hermione is not that much objectified. Well, her character is also objectified
but in more controlled way. In the later parts of the movie she becomes the
reason to fight between the two important characters Harry and Ron. As compared
to all these characters Sophie's portrayal of the characters is done in
more fair way. As compared to these three characters the character of
Hermione and Sophie is more free and open-mined. They remain companion of the
male characters at the last of the journey. But still Sophie is emerging as the
more strong character. In the movie also her body is not used as the object in
the movie.
3. If we do an Atheist reading than Leigh Teabing can be consider as a
protagonist. As he is interested in studying history of Christianity, because
his character deals an idea which is also center of the novel. Robert Langdon
is a follower of Christianity when at the end Langdon uncover the mystery
behind the Mary Magdalene and the Holy Grail also called Sangreal. We can say
that Langdon is a hero or traditional protagonist. If we can see Atheist
reading point of view Sir Leigh Teabing become hero.
