Literature

Hi,
The English syllabus has been recently revised. It now covers the English literary tradition that extends from Chaucer to modern times. It also incorporates several new areas such as Indian literature in English and in English translation, continental literary theory, significant imaginative writing from outside England, gender studies, and the relationship between literature and the visual arts. The M.A. English syllabus comprises 16 courses to be taught over 4 semesters and in 2 years. Out of these, students need to study 14 within the English Department and choose 2 from among several courses offered by other humanities or social sciences departments of the university. Among the 14 literature courses, 10 are compulsory and 4 are optional. Students are offered a total of 10 courses out of which to pick their 4 options.
