Critics differ widely on how to interpret Matthew Arnold's choice of"Sophocles"in it. Many critics argue that the introduction of the Greek author Sophocles in the second stanza strengthened the theme in a large degree by forming a contrast between the present and past. Some others think that Arnold chooses Sophocles because he appreciates Hellenism. But most of the critics attempt to discover a specific reference to Sophocles. In this article, the author is going to discuss why reasons mentioned above can not explain the role"Sophocles"played in improving the theme of"Dover Beach"and prove that"Sophocles"was used by Arnold, a pious Christian, to grieve for the collapse of faith.展开更多

The geo-chemical behavior of the elements in the region is discussed. The irradiations were done at thermal neutron flux of ~ 1011 cm-2·s-1 at 20kW power using Kalpakkam Mini Reactor (KAMINI), IGCAR, Kalpakkam, Tamilnadu, India. Around 19 elements have been determined from 15 samples by high-resolution gamma spectrometry. The accuracy and precision were evaluated by assaying the irradiated Standard Reference Material (SRM 1646a Estuarine sediment) and were found to be in good agreement with certified values.展开更多

The mineralogical composition was determined using FT-IR and XRD. The natural radioactive measurements to detect radioactive elements were determined by gamma ray spectrometer. The multi-element analyses were carried out by INAA (Instrumental neutron activation analysis), with the standard Estuarine Sediment as reference material. The geochemical behavior of elements in the region is discussed. The occurrence of the radioactive and non-radioactive elements is discussed for their geological significance. The results were used to assess environmental toxicity of heavy metals and radiation hazard in the study area.展开更多
