BEGC-112 Solved Question Paper for the June 2026 term-end exam gives you exam-length answers to all 16 questions IGNOU printed for British Literature: The Early 20th Century.

1. What the BEGC-112 Solved Question Paper June 2026 Covers
BEGC-112 British Literature: The Early 20th Century is a Semester V core course in IGNOU's Bachelor of Arts (Honours) English (BAEGH), built around Modernism, two novels and four poems.
The June 2026 paper ran to six printed pages and four main questions. It drew on all four blocks: a passage from Mrs Dalloway and all four prescribed poems in the reference-to-context section, notes on Modernism, the War Poets and Lawrence, and a closing essay choice between Sons and Lovers and Stephen Spender.
Our file answers every one of the 16 questions, not only the 11 you must attempt. That matters because BEGC-112 gives you a choice inside every section, and students often lose marks by picking a question they half-prepared. With all 16 solved, you can compare the options before you commit.
Unit references in this file follow the official course material on eGyanKosh, where IGNOU hosts the four BEGC-112 blocks as downloadable units, from Modernism to the Poetry block.
2. BEGC-112 Sample Answers: Yeats and the Psychoanalytic Sons and Lovers
Two BEGC-112 questions are solved in full below: Question 1(ii) on Yeats and the first essay choice in Question 4 on Sons and Lovers.
We picked one short reference-to-context answer and one 20-mark essay so you can see both ends of the paper. The question text is copied exactly as IGNOU printed it, with the correct forms of the quotation given in square brackets.
Reference to context Block 4, Unit 13 8 marks About 150 words Yeats in all 6 papers
Question 1(ii). Explain with reference to the context (around 150 words):
'Surely some revelation is at hand
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second coming [Coming]! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert,
A shape with lionbody [lion body] and the head of a man, ...'
Reference: These lines open the second stanza of W. B. Yeats's 'The Second Coming', written in January 1919, published in The Dial in November 1920 and later collected in Michael Robartes and the Dancer (1921).
Context: In the first stanza the speaker sees a world flying apart: the centre cannot hold and innocence is drowned. Written after the First World War and the Russian Revolution of 1917, amid rising violence in Ireland, the poem reads these events as signs that an age is ending.
Explanation: The speaker reasons that such chaos must herald a revelation and names it the Second Coming, the Christian promise of Christ's return. At once a vision rises from Spiritus Mundi, Yeats's term for the shared memory of humankind. What he sees is not Christ but a sphinx-like desert creature with a lion's body and a man's head.
Critical comment: The double 'Surely' sounds hopeful, but the exclamation turns hope into shock. Through his cyclical theory of history, later set out in A Vision (1925), Yeats reverses the Christian promise: the coming age will be pitiless. Loose, unrhymed iambic lines and the bare desert give the prophecy an ancient yet urgent tone.
Essay, first choice Block 2, Units 7 and 8 20 marks About 300 words Asked in 3 of 6 papers
Question 4 (first choice). Briefly discuss the psychoanalytical readings of Sons and Lovers. (20)
Introduction: D. H. Lawrence published Sons and Lovers in 1913. It follows Paul Morel, son of a Nottinghamshire miner, whose bond with his mother Gertrude shapes every later relationship. Because it appeared just as Freud's ideas reached English readers, it became one of the first English novels read through psychoanalysis.
The Oedipal reading: Freud argued that a child's earliest desire is directed at the parent of the opposite sex, with rivalry towards the other. Gertrude, disillusioned with her rough, drinking husband Walter, pours her emotional life into her sons, first William and, after his death, Paul. Paul's childhood hatred of his father, to the point of praying for his death, fits this pattern.
Early Freudian criticism: Alfred Booth Kuttner's 1916 essay in The Psychoanalytic Review read the novel almost as a case study of the Oedipus complex, a son whose love for his mother blocks his capacity to love any other woman.
Divided love: The reading explains Paul's failed relationships. Miriam Leivers offers spiritual closeness that he cannot answer physically; Clara Dawes offers passion without depth, and he returns her to her husband. Critics link this split between tenderness and desire to Freud's idea that a man fixed on his mother cannot unite affection and sensuality in one partner.
Lawrence's own account: In a November 1912 letter to his editor Edward Garnett, Lawrence wrote that the mother's sons are urged into life yet cannot love fully because she holds them. Frieda Weekley, who knew Freudian ideas through Otto Gross, was with him during the final revision, and critics often credit her with sharpening this emphasis.
Death and release: Paul and his sister Annie give the dying Gertrude an overdose of morphia, an act of mercy that is also a release. In the last scene Paul turns from darkness towards the glowing town, which many readers take as his first step out of her hold.
Limits: Lawrence disliked his book being reduced to a theory and later attacked Freud in Psychoanalysis and the Unconscious (1921). Feminist critics such as Kate Millett questioned how the women serve Paul's growth, while others stress class and the mining community.
Conclusion: The psychoanalytic approach remains the best-known key to Sons and Lovers, explaining Paul's attachment, his failed loves and the open ending, though a strong answer also notes Lawrence's own resistance to Freud.
3. Questions Answered Only in the Full BEGC-112 File
The 14 questions below appear exactly as printed in the June 2026 paper.
Their answers are in the full file only, with each passage identified and placed in context and each long answer built to the marks it carries. Where the printed paper misspells a word or drops one from a quotation, the correct form is given in square brackets.
Question 1 — reference to context, any four of five, around 150 words each (4 × 8 = 32)
(i) 'He had been sent down from Oxford—true. He had been a Socialist, in some sense a failure—true. Still the future of civilization lies, he thought, in the hands of young men like that, of young men such as he was, thirty years ago; with their love of abstract principles; getting books sent out to them all the way from London to a peak in the Himalayas; reading science; reading philosophy.'
(iii) 'At the end we preferred to travel all night.
Sleeping in snatches,
With the voices singing in our ears, saying
That this was all folly.
Then at dawn we came down to a temperate valley.'(iv) 'He was found by the Bureau of statistics [Statistics] to be
One against whom there was no official complaint
And all the reports on his conduct agree
That, in the modern sense of an old fashioned [old-fashioned] word, he was saint [a saint],'(v) 'What is precious is never to forget
The essential delight of the blood drawn from ageless springs
Breaking through rocks in the worlds before our earth.
Never to deny its pleasure in the morning simple light
Nor its grave evening demand for love.'Question 2 — short notes, any four of five, around 100 words each (4 × 6 = 24)
(i) Modernism in the Novel.
(ii) Distinguish between Classicism and Modernism.
(iii) The British 'War Poets'.
(iv) The stream of consciousness technique.
(v) D. H. Lawrence's early novels.
Question 3 — any two of four, around 200 words each (2 × 12 = 24)
(i) Write a critical appreciation of 'Journey of the Magi.'
(ii) Discuss Mrs. Dalloway as a novel on the exploration of human phychology [psychology].
(iii) Discuss the 'pessimistic overtone' in 'The Second Coming'.
(iv) Compare and contrast D. H. Lawrence and Virginia Woolf as the torch bearers of the 'Modern Novel'.
Question 4 (second choice, after Or) — essay, around 300 words (20)
Explain the theme of the poem 'I think continually of those who are [were] truly great'. How does Spender integrate the past and the present?
4. BEGC-112 British Literature Syllabus Block and Unit Wise
BEGC-112 is studied in 4 blocks and 16 units: Modernism, Novel (1) on Sons and Lovers, Novel (2) on Mrs Dalloway, and Poetry with four poems.
Unit titles below are taken from the eGyanKosh block pages. The topics column shows what each unit spends most of its time on, so you can see where the 16 June 2026 questions come from.

That is 4 units in each of the 4 blocks, 16 units in all.
Block 4 carries the most weight in practice: in June 2026, seven of the 16 questions came from its four poems. If you want the unit texts alongside our answers, our BEGC-112 Study Material follows the same block order.
5. BEGC-112 Question Paper Pattern and Marks Split
The BEGC-112 Question Paper carries 100 marks over 3 hours, with 16 printed questions of which you attempt 11.
All four main questions are compulsory, but each gives you internal choice. The IGNOU BEGC-112 Question Paper for June 2026 kept the same four-question layout seen in every paper since December 2022. One change is worth noting: IGNOU has printed 'around 150 words' beside the passage section since December 2024, which earlier papers did not state.
| Question | Task | Given | Attempt | Word guide | Marks | June 2026 sources |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Q1 | Reference to context | 5 | 4 | Around 150 each | 4 × 8 = 32 | Mrs Dalloway, Yeats, Eliot, Auden, Spender |
| Q2 | Short notes | 5 | 4 | Around 100 each | 4 × 6 = 24 | Modernism, Classicism, War Poets, stream of consciousness, Lawrence |
| Q3 | Medium answers | 4 | 2 | Around 200 each | 2 × 12 = 24 | Eliot, Mrs Dalloway, Yeats, Lawrence and Woolf compared |
| Q4 | Essay | 2 | 1 | Around 300 | 1 × 20 = 20 | Sons and Lovers or Spender |
| Total | Four compulsory questions | 16 | 11 | About 1,700 words written | 100 | All four blocks tested |
(4 × 150) + (4 × 100) + (2 × 200) + 300 = 600 + 400 + 400 + 300 = about 1,700 words in 180 minutes
At about 1,700 words this is the lightest writing load of the BAEGH core papers, so the marks turn on accuracy rather than volume. Note too that Question 1 alone carries 32 marks, more than the essay, so four well-placed passages are worth more than one long essay.
To see how steady this layout has been, compare it with older sittings on our IGNOU Previous Year Question Paper page, which collects the earlier BAEGH papers.
6. BEGC-112 Topics IGNOU Keeps Repeating
All four prescribed poems and a Mrs Dalloway passage have appeared in every one of the six earlier BEGC-112 papers we found on IGNOU's official sites.
We counted topics across the December 2022, June 2023, December 2023, December 2024, June 2025 and December 2025 papers from webservices.ignou.ac.in and ignou.ac.in. The June 2024 paper was not available on either site, so it is not counted, and the table makes no claim beyond these six papers.
| Topic | Sessions where it appeared | Papers | In June 2026? |
|---|---|---|---|
| 'Journey of the Magi' (Eliot) | All six papers | 6 of 6 | Yes: Q1(iii) and Q3(i) |
| 'The Second Coming' (Yeats) | All six papers | 6 of 6 | Yes: Q1(ii) and Q3(iii) |
| 'I think continually of those who were truly great' (Spender) | All six papers | 6 of 6 | Yes: Q1(v) and Q4 second choice |
| 'The Unknown Citizen' (Auden) | All six papers | 6 of 6 | Yes: Q1(iv) |
| Mrs Dalloway passage for reference to context | All six papers | 6 of 6 | Yes: Q1(i), plus Q3(ii) |
| Stream of consciousness technique | December 2022, June 2023, December 2023, December 2024, December 2025 | 5 of 6 | Yes: Q2(iv) |
| Modernism in poetry, art or its characteristics | December 2022, December 2023, December 2024, June 2025, December 2025 | 5 of 6 | Yes: Q2(i) and Q2(ii) |
| First World War literature and war poetry | December 2022, June 2023, December 2024, December 2025 | 4 of 6 | Yes: Q2(iii) |
| Psychoanalytic reading of Sons and Lovers | June 2023, December 2024, December 2025 | 3 of 6 | Yes: Q4 first choice |
| Virginia Woolf's literary traits and achievement | December 2022, June 2025, December 2025 | 3 of 6 | Yes: Q3(iv), compared with Lawrence |
| Freud's influence on early twentieth century Britain | December 2022, December 2023, June 2025 | 3 of 6 | Not set in June 2026 |
| Sons and Lovers as a regional novel | December 2022, December 2024, December 2025 | 3 of 6 | Not set in June 2026 |
| Modern British drama and verse drama | June 2023, December 2023, June 2025 | 3 of 6 | Not set in June 2026 |
| D. H. Lawrence's early novels | June 2023, December 2025 | 2 of 6 | Yes: Q2(v) |
| Autobiographical elements in Sons and Lovers | December 2023, June 2025 | 2 of 6 | Not set in June 2026 |
The pattern is clear. Question 1 almost always takes one passage from each poem plus one from a novel, while the long answers rotate between Eliot, Yeats, Spender and Sons and Lovers.
For December 2026, four areas skipped this session are worth keeping on your list: Freud's influence on early twentieth century Britain and the regional reading of Sons and Lovers, both set in three of the six papers; modern British drama, also set in three; and the autobiographical reading of Sons and Lovers, set in two. Our IGNOU Solved Guess Paper sets are built from the same paper-by-paper count, course by course.
7. How Our BEGC-112 Answers Are Written and Checked
Every BEGC-112 answer is drafted by Prateek Talwar against the eGyanKosh units and IGNOU's printed word guide, then checked by Sheetal Kirola before it goes into the file.
Passage answers follow the four-part order examiners look for in English literature papers: reference, context, explanation and critical comment. Short notes stay near 100 words, Question 3 answers near 200 and the essay near 300, with a little extra depth where a topic needs it.
Dates and sources are cross-checked, such as 1913 for Sons and Lovers, 1925 for Mrs Dalloway and 1927 for Eliot's Ariel poem. Each answer is also read against the six earlier papers, so angles IGNOU likes to revisit, such as the biblical background of Eliot's poem, are covered rather than skipped.
Where the printed paper drops a word from a quotation or misspells one, as it does in three places this session, the answer works from the published text and marks the correction, so you quote the poet rather than the typesetter.
If you are revising the whole semester, the same checks run on our BAEGH Question Paper files for your other BA Honours English core courses.

It includes complete answers to all 16 questions printed in IGNOU's June 2026 BEGC-112 paper: five passages, five short notes, four 200-word answers and both essay choices. Two answers are shown on this page as samples. The other 14 are in the full file, written to the word limits IGNOU prints and checked against the eGyanKosh units for the course.
How can I get the full BEGC-112 June 2026 file on WhatsApp?
Send a WhatsApp message to 9899436384 with the course code BEGC 112 and your exam session. We reply with the complete June 2026 solved file, which has 16 answers in total: the 2 sample answers you can read on this page and 14 more that are not shown here. Every answer follows IGNOU's word guide for its section.
Which BEGC-112 texts repeat most often in IGNOU papers?
In the six official BEGC-112 papers we found, from December 2022 to December 2025, all four prescribed poems appeared every time: Yeats's 'The Second Coming', Eliot's 'Journey of the Magi', Auden's 'The Unknown Citizen' and Spender's 'I think continually of those who were truly great'. A passage from Mrs Dalloway was also set in each paper, so revise these first.
Which BEGC-112 topics are most likely in December 2026?
The four that June 2026 left out. Freud's influence on early twentieth century Britain, Sons and Lovers as a regional novel and modern British drama were each set in three of the six papers we checked, and the autobiographical reading of Sons and Lovers in two. None of them got a question this session, so prepare all four alongside the poems that appear every time.
How many questions do I attempt in the BEGC-112 British Literature exam?
You attempt 11 of the 16 printed questions in BEGC-112. That means four of five passages for reference to context, four of five short notes, two of four 200-word answers and one of two essays. All four main questions are compulsory, the paper carries 100 marks and you get 3 hours, so budget your time section by section.
Are the BEGC-112 answers written to IGNOU word limits?
Yes. Each BEGC-112 answer is written close to the word guide printed in the paper: about 150 words for each passage, 100 for each short note, 200 for each Question 3 answer and 300 for the essay. That comes to about 1,700 words across the eleven answers. Passage answers follow reference, context, explanation and critical comment, which is the order examiners expect for reference-to-context questions in English literature.
Is the BEGC-112 June 2026 paper useful for the December 2026 exam?
Yes, because BEGC-112 has kept the same four-question layout and the same prescribed texts in every paper since December 2022. Working through the June 2026 answers shows you how recent questions are framed, for example the comparison of Lawrence and Woolf in Question 3. Pair it with the repeat-topic table above to decide which texts to revise first.
Which programme includes BEGC-112 British Literature: The Early 20th Century?
BEGC-112 is a Semester V core course of IGNOU's Bachelor of Arts (Honours) English, programme code BAEGH, as listed on eGyanKosh. It is studied in four blocks: Modernism, Novel (1) on Sons and Lovers, Novel (2) on Mrs Dalloway and Poetry. The course also carries assignment work covering all four blocks.
Who prepared and reviewed the BEGC-112 solved answers?
The BEGC-112 answers were prepared by Prateek Talwar for Unnati Educations and reviewed by Sheetal Kirola before release. They worked from the official June 2026 question paper, the eGyanKosh course units and six earlier IGNOU papers, so the file reflects how BEGC-112 questions are actually framed rather than generic notes on modern British literature.
