Abstract

The social arrangements or the social system with dominant ideologies constructs individual ideologies. A writer with these dominant ideologies is entertained by the publishers and motivated by the government. Thereby, such writer is made popular. The writer represents these constructions in their writings and the same ideologies are identified and recognized by the critics. The dominant ideology is circulated to the readers. Therefore thoughts, beliefs, ideologies, values, attitudes of influential writers are not autonomous, sovereign and independent systems but constructed and fostered by social factors. Once constructed, these ideologies are represented by the individuals. Once, represented they are circulated to their readers. Therefore, we can trace a circular motion of ideologies independent of individual writers.

Key Words: Dominant Ideologies, Social Arrangement, Construction of Ideology, Representation of ideology, Reciprocity of Construction and Representation
