II.3. Methodical recommendation in teaching of the novel “Pride and Prejudice” by Jane Austen.
Today there is paid a great attention to the literature in our developing country. Because, literature is the text book of life. Its role is immense in getting to know the life closely and in bringing up people, especially, young generations. But, of course, this does not mean that after readingsome books of fiction you to know the life.
In order, to become a “Literary educated person” one has to study not only from the book itself bur also one has to get acquanited with the history of literature, which reflects the history of people. In every country the history of literature is closely connected with history of class struggle and social contradictions within nation.
Nowadays, we should learn not only our Uzbek national literature but also we should learn World Literature too. When the man knows all about World Literature, then he can become a literary educated person. We should learn the following things to know all about Word literature or foreign literature: First of all we should know what the literature is itself and World literature. And then we must learn the history of the literature, after the history of literature we learn periods in it. Every period of literature plays a great role in the teaching literature. We should carefully explain periods and representatives in them. We know that a lot of great writers created wonderful novels, stories, plays and poems in literature. Their works kept till nowadays and everybody can learn them if they wanted from textbooks or internet. We may call their brilliant piece of works as their masterpieces.
Finally, I can say that every youth can learn everything about literature which they read fiction and interested in them with pleasure if they try enough had their hopes. Because, today there are great changes for us, for youths of Uzbekistan, for instance, encyclopedias or internets.
Together with speaking reading fiction is one of the two chief aims of instruction in the foreign language. On completing the course the finishes from schools must be able to read and understand easy original texts of moderate difficulty with the occasional use, of a dictionary. Reading texts or reading fiction in the foreign language is of great educative and general cultural value to the pupils. It widens their horizon. The fiction books acquaint them with the life and the achievements of the peoples of the people of the nation, as well as with the literature, history, geography, culture, manners and customs, of the peoples and countries of the language studied.
Twelve modes of reading are distinguished in foreign language teaching from six different view-points, namely: oral and silent, individual and choral, unprepared and prepared, class and home or out of class, cursory and close or extensive and intensive, controlled and independent readings. There are, however, neither forms, nor methods of work, but features, as we shall see, appearing or combining in various forms of work and methods of teaching to read. It has been shown that the authors hold to be the best and the most economical, if not the only effective, methods of instruction in reading, consistent with the findings of modern educational psychology, is conscious-imitative, semi-independent, and independent reading. The forms of work in reading suggested above appeal to the pupils. At the outset of the children, without necessarily indulging in frivolity, are eager to mimick the teacher. Soon they begin to delight in the exhibition of their growing independence and in the exercise of their newly acquired power of reading in the foreign languages.
If competently applied, the methods recommended will facilitate the fulfilment by the teacher of two difficult, but important tasks of bringing the pupils to read fiction or English texts for themselves, to read English not merely as taskwork, but for the pleasure of the thing, and of fitting them to pursue the study of the language after finishing in order to develop their ability freely to read in the foreign language the literature of their chosen speciality.
Jane Austen wrote about people who had money and property (Houses and land). Some people were richer than others, but none of them were poor. These people did not work. They visited each other and they met at balls and dances. They played cards and read books and had conversation. Men got a money band property from their fathers. An eldest son usually got most of the money and property after his father’s death. Younger sons often went into the church or the army. Daughters stayed at home. They learnt to read and write, to draw, play music and sew. It was important for a girl to marry a man who had money and property. In this society, people were very polite and formal. They used polite words everywhere and every time. People travelled in carriages pulled by horses or walked, but women did not usually go out alone.
