The central idea of the story is ‘The Last Lesson’ is linguistic chauvinism of the proud conquerors and the pain that is inflicted on the people of a territory by them by taking away the right to study or speak their own language and thus make them aliens in their own land of birth. The story has a sub-theme also. It highlights the attitudes of the students and teachers to learning and teaching.Though the story is located in a particular village of Alsace district of France which had passed into Prussian hands it has a universal appeal. It highlights the efforts of the victors to crush their victims— the vanquished people in all possible manner—materially spiritually mentally and emotionally. Taking away mother tongue from the people is the harshest punishment. The proper equation between student and teacher his focused attention helpful and encouraging attitude and kind treatment can encourage students to learn better.

The last lesson by Alphonse Daudet is mainly about the longing to learn the mother tongue and love for it. It has a sense of patriotism. The Prussians rejected the freedom of the people of Lorraine and Alsace to learn their own mother tongue. The colonizers took away the basic rights of the people. When the students could not learn their own language, they sensed a feeling of being restricted and missed learning French. The practice of linguistic chauvinism is highlighted in this story to draw our attention. It throws the light upon the utmost pride in one’s mother tongue and considering other languages not equally worthy. People of Lorraine and Alsace were the victims of linguistic chauvinism They were forced to learn German. Franz, a school student who was always reluctant in his French class and never took it seriously, saw how important it was to learn his mother tongue. This quality of people displays that humans respect things more when they see it going. Also, the parents preferred to see their children working well rather than learning French. Later they realize how they missed the French classes and they were sorry about it. How Prussians drilled their land is shown by how unfairly they are treated and have a sense of loss.

The narrator stood at threshing floor near her house. Just then, an elder of her street came along from the bazaar. He was carrying a small packet. It contained vadai or green banana bhajji in it. He was holding out the packet by its string, without touching it. The manner in which he was walking made her double up and shriek with laughter.

Moral of the story was that we should not postpone our work for tomorrow obvious to the fact that life is subject to change as what had happened to the people of Alsace. When they had time to learn, write and read their mother tongue they did not give importance to that and when their mother tongue was abolished they felt sorry for not giving urge to their mother language.

The poet wants us to keep still till he counts upto twelve. For once, let us not talk in any language on this earth. He asks us to stop moving our arms so much for one second.
Let there be no rush or hurry for a second. Engines and other machines must stop for a moment. That moment will be a fascinating moment for all of us. Then all of us shall enjoy the sudden strangeness of the moment together.

The poet wants that the fishermen would not harm the whales in the cold sea of polar regions. Even the man gathering salt with his own hands must take care of his hurt hands.

All kinds of wars must be stopped at once. The green wars against the environment, wars with poisonous gases and wars with fire-arms must be stopped now. In such wars, victory is meaningless as there are no survivors left after the war. Instead of fighting and waging wars, people should come out in their best dresses. They must go out for a walk with their brothers. They must move about under the shady trees and enjoy doing nothing.

The poet does not want that we should confuse ‘stillness’ with ‘total inactivity. Doing nothing at all would amount to death. The poet has no association with death. We think that life is to move about. We should not be always on the move. For a while we should also take rest. A long silence can do us a lot of good. Men become sad when they fail to understand themselves. They feel helpless when they threaten themselves with death. A long silence can soothe our feelings and help us in removing this sadness.

The poet gives an example to illustrate the idea that ‘stillness’ does not mean total inactivity’. The earth can teach us a lesson. When everything seems dead, the earth remains alive.
The poet asks us to keep quiet till he counts twelve. Then he will go.

He was an honest teacher. He did not blame his students alone for poor learning. He also held himself responsible for the same. He was very patriotic as he appealed to his countrymen to hold fast to their mother tongue to be free from the Prussians.

We cannot call today’s society advanced. While it might seem like a blanket statement that encompasses all the good that society has achieved, it means little. I, Satish, say this because there still those who believe in employing children for odd or menial jobs. It comes as a sad shock because those that still support it, hold respectable positions in society and hypocritically preach about the emancipation of minors. What is most needed at this juncture is an education, not just that starts from school but that continues to emphasize that children are not meant to slog and earn for their basic needs and necessities.

Have we truly failed our children, the very generation we strived to do our best and tried to achieve for? It’s an uncomfortable thought, but one that requires necessary introspection, for these children, exploited, have a difficult time being rehabilitated and all they are looking for is an equal opportunity to succeed in life and provide for their families and for that will need to go to school, governments need to be more involved in taking a step forward for these children and they will require your charity.

They will be unable to do that if their chances are shackled by poverty and exploitation. Once again, I urge you to take a look in the mirror and consider whether it is right, whether it fair, whether we have done the right thing for in my eyes, we have failed them.
