Today, the world is facing multitudinous challenges caused by the pandemic of covid-19. The recent outbreak of Corona virus has brought many ruptures in the society. This has changed the perception of the people towards people. Almost the same perspective was witnessed in the American society during the post World War period. In the present research paper, a holistic attempt will be made to examine how Jack Kerouac's The Dharma Bums is the best example of countercultural discourse in literature.

Subjectivity has become a matter of conflict between competing theories and practices around which questions of ethics, politics and representation have continually voiced since Renaissance period.

Today, as we put the postcolonial or postmodern translator in the concept of " the World as a Global village " partaking of a drive towards universality and a quest for uniformity in culture and world view. The translation as an activity becomes an ethical act. The writer Theo Hermans quotes that the translation as a means of transport and transference of various civilizations has proven a narrow basis for an encounter of complexities and inequities of an unstable, postcolonial and globalized world.

It is the advanced media technology that has changed rampant teaching pattern. However, the question arises whether such a teaching pattern would achieve success? Under these circumstances, multimedia English language teaching seems a challenge for teachers. Only with innovative educational ideas, innovative implementation of new technologies and methods will the teaching efficiency be improved and the teaching level be guaranteed.
