• cottard                    :criminal
• Father panelox       :saint
• M .michel                :first person to die of plague

                      let's understanding some basic information about this novel.

        This novel is french but related with current situation.In this novel city of oran ,suddenly,some rats are dying in that time.so Dr. bernad know that this situation will become serious for the human. so,suddenly,the effect of plague enters in the human body.so first person michel. who dies for the plague's reason. After some time there are lots of persons are dying due to plague.

         so Dr.Bernard can try to prevention of epidemic situation because of serious condition.so we can say that this novel is connected with covid 19 situation.At this time people are facing big problem in the current situation. here so many people are dying due to corona.so now a days big corona virus enter in the human's body.Today we can try to comparision between plague and corona.so both are very danger virus.so today we have some of the topic.so let us do it now.

• Humanity:Human self centeredness vs  Human sacrifice

             Today we are going to discuss about the plague vs corona. we know that both are very dangerious virus .which came from the animals.so in this discussion we know that where is human self centeredness and human sacrifice.so in that situation only human are in center.because only human's body take this virus so animals are must be live secure now a days.

                  In that plague novel the father panelox is in human self centeredness .Because he is thinking that this is the fruit of karma.so those people are died so Its bad luck.He says that death and life both things is of god's hand.we never save this type of people .who has cholera.But after some days some children are dying due to cholera.

so he realize that it's not dependent on god because children are innocent.so after he gives his new thoughts god is medium but only doctor can save this children from the disease.

              There are so many people who is doing sacrifice to his own self like.....

• Doctors
• police
• some good workers who give his all time to do the prevention of virus. Also,novel related examples like...
• Dr.Barnard
• Dr.castle
• jean tarrou so these are the character who helps a lot in that epidemic situation.

. science vs religion :The question of god and religion in times of epidemic and calamities    

                       science vs religion both have different conflicts.Also science is believes in experiment. Religion believes in god. so both part are never connected with each other.we can say that science and religion have two different path.So in that things all human have different perspective. we never judge the mind of another person but we can find the proper way of  life in literature.so plague's novel Dr.Barnard is believes in science man so he don't do trust on god because he know that which infection through virus is coming into human's body.

                        And,also father panelox .who believes in god.They describes his own idea about the god he says god through virus is entering now and only god can prevention of this virus but it's not full of truth because after he goes to support of doctors at that time he is also suffering from this virus.And he dies in the end part.

• power politics: fascist forces of 1940 s vs surveillance society of 2020 

            it's very interesting  point because in that city of oran's people   don't go into another countries.examples is Raymond Rambert. He is journalist from the paris. he wants to go in paris but he can't go right now.

            we can talk about 2020 people .who are facing this problems because people were coming from the chaina. If  our government could try  before the lok down  for the another countries people .if they had denied to come into india so may be covid 19 will not here.

so it might be possible for here shall not come virus.so I think all countries people may be safe.now a days it's not possible because all ready virus is here now a days.so i will give one of the example:In that monsoon season ,we can't give more water of small crop. Because it will die for more dose.so in this situation please stay home and be safe otherwise you are in stage because god never come here only for you.

           And,also some police man are doing his work as surveillance.

but some times they all are doing corruption like a with out mask fund is 1000.so they will take this money and put in his own pocket.

so in my opinion, police man should have to give new mask of people so it's better things for people because there are lots of people who is doing his work as laborer.

•    how this narrative is an archetype of epidemic literature

               we can easily say that this is epidemic  novel because in this novel .There are all things is  related with plague.so we can say this is the epidemic literature and also related with current time.so in this novel Dr.Barnard  can try to find the reason behind the prevention of this virus.so in that time Dr. Barnad wife has fever so at that time he can't go there and stay here for patient.

              And,also one character is jean tarrou and Raymond   Rambert so both character are sacrificing his self and try to work for patient.  After jean tarrou is died.   And also all part are chronologically connected with the infection .so we called that it's epidemic literature.example: In gujarati manvini bhavai.

            

         Theme

                 This novel based on death,suffering,sadness,struggle,

also, end goes to happiness .

                      so we have learnt that once upon time this covid 19 situation must be go from us. so stay home and live safe .covid 19 situation will go like a plague.
