Semester-I Introduction to Literature I: Poetry & Drama Course Code: ENG.103 B.S. English

Course Objectives: This course introduces various forms and styles of the genre of poetry, originally in English or translated. Irrespective of any chronological or historical development or the hierarchy of major and minor or continental and local or classical and popular, the main purpose of these readings is to highlight the variety of poetry worldwide and its possible inter-connection. The readers will find here a combination of elegy, ode, lyric, ballad, free verse, and many other types. In a way the variety of the poetic expression informs about the sub-generic elements of verse. There is lot of scope for further analysis and research into the secrets of versification: tone and mood, metre, rhythm, rhyme, and such technical details, but, above all the function is to aesthetically enrich the readers with various mechanisms of musicality through words placed in poetic order. For some background help, the teachers may introduce a diversity of poetic expression and also consult any reference book detailing the fundamentals of poetry. As far as the aim of introducing one act and other plays is concerned, it is to familiarize the readers with fundamentals of drama i.e. character, plot, setting, dialogue. It would prepare them for a mature understanding of drama as a popular genre in literature. Poetry

World HistoryCourse Code: HIST. 101 B.S. English

Course Objects

Object of the study is to acquaint the students with all human endeavors towards progress of all sorts i.e. material physical, spiritual and intellectual. It traces the long and complex path traversed by the human race from the era of primitive society right up to the Modern Age. For the huge volume of this human voyage turning points of history will be emphasized.

World History, history in its broadest sense is the totality of the past events. Although more realistic definition would limit it to the known past. So World History means the written record of human lives and societies in the past and historians attempt to understand them.

History is the memory of human group experience. If it is forgotten or ignored, we cease in that measure to be human. So without history we have no knowledge of who we are or how we came to be. This collective amnesia, ultimately, will throw us in the dark resulting led to the crises of identity.

History of English Literature Medieval to Romantic Times

Course Code: ENG. 104 B. S. English

Course Objectives: One of the objectives of this course is to inform the readers about the influence of historical and socio-cultural events on literature. Although the scope of the course is quite expansive, the readers shall focus on early 14th to 19th century literature written during Romantic Movement. Histories of literature written by some British literary historians will be consulted to form some socio-cultural and political cross connections.

The reading of literature in this way i.e. within socio-cultural context will help the readers become aware of the fact that literary works are basically a referential product of the practice that goes back to continuous interdisciplinary interaction.

History of English Literature II 19th Century Realism to Contemporary Times

Course Code: ENG. 205 B.S. English

Course Objectives: This course will focus on some of the major literary movements of the 20th Century. The spirit of the course should be taken as an extension of any of the previous courses suggested in the literary history; like the one in Year 01, Semester 1, but this time the historical topics are to be accessed a bit differently. Here the students are to explore the history of Modern literature from the perspective of overlapping major literary trends and tradition of the time. For example, at its core, the course will explore the changing forms of Realism as a literary requirement during the 20th century. It will explore some of the divergent offshoots of Realism like Naturalism, Symbolism, Existentialism, Absurdism, Surrealism, and many others. By its extension, it will be very challenging for the teachers to tackle controversial debates such as seeing modern and 20th century “Romanticism” as types of Realism! This course on the one hand supplements historical survey while on the other it offers an exposure to forms of Modern drama, fiction, and poetry, the courses to be offered in the coming semesters. Contents:

Semester-VI Romantic and Victorian Poetry Course Code: ENG. 302 B.S. English

Course Objectives: This course is a study of poetic forms from English Romantic and Victorian verse. Students will be able to identify the characteristics of these periods as reflected through the poetry of the selected representative poets. This is also worth mentioning that the romantic literature in fact, starts from the graveyard school of the 18th century primarily known for its classic taste. Poets like Goldsmith and Gray are justifiably known as precursors of romanticism. However, the scope of this course does not admit them as part of its reading as well. The period of romantic aesthetics covered under this course starts from 1789 with the advent of Blake‟s work. This is the romantic revival period in which Blake, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Shelley, Byron, Keats, Lamb etc establish its immense poetic and prosaic richness. The aim is to develop in the reader and awareness of the second wave of the Romantics and to enable them to distinguish between the poets of the age keeping in mind the similarities that group them together.
