LANGUAGE THROUGH LITERATURE (TEXTUS)

Details: This volume is one of the recommended texts for the Ability Enhancement Compulsory Course under the CBCS Programme. It aims to develop language skills of undergraduate learners through specifically designed projects that encourage them to look beyond the text and explore issues of multiculturalism, globalization, diaspora, partition, caste and tribe locations, identity and politics. Using literature as a medium to enhance language skills, it encourages them to engage with diverse socio-political and literary issues of our times. The selections herein are wide ranging and explore the diversity of Indian culture; the exercises too are innovative and will encourage individual as well as group activity to improve language proficiency. Taken together, these will help students with even basic language skills to further develop communication skills as well as acquire critical acumen.
