Question -1
(b) Describe how memory plays an important role in Satyajit Ray's short story "Fritz".
Answer: Memory plays an important role in Satyajit Ray's short story "Fritz". The memory of Jayanto has been presented in broad outline. Jayanto went to Bundi in Rajasthan with his father when he was a mere child of six and he retained his memories in his mind which helped him to relive the past by comparing the new Bundi with the old one. On reaching Bundi with his friend Shankar, Some of the memories of his childhood days spent in the same circuit house 31 years ago came crowding in his mind. He was feeling nostalgic. Slowly and silently he started recalling the doll gifted to him by his uncle. The doll looke very life like. It was named Fritz. Jayanto Reminisced that he used to play with the doll all day long. Although it was not mechanised, it could bend and twist its limbs.
On knowing from Jayanto that the doll had been torn asunder by stray dogs and was buried under the deodar tree, Shankar told him to dig up the ground in order to confirm the existence of the doll which was broken in small pieces. They got the spot dug up and they were amused and bemused to find a 12-inch long human skeleton. There was no sign of the doll, so we see that it was Jayanto's childhood memory which brought back the little doll Fritz to life in a new light.
