Annual Report 2014-15 (Under Section 40 of Sardar Patel University Act Sardar Patel University Vallabh Vidyanagar 59th Annual Report 2014-15 (Under Section 40 of Sardar Patel University Act. 1955) From the Desk of the Chief Editor Gaudino (1965: 1) argues that a university “is not more abstract than corporate body. It cannot isolate its identity from the circumstances which surround it.” Elsewhere in the work cited, he offers insight into the way in which a university is brought into being: (1) The university begins in an Act of establishment by legislative authority, (2) The Act lays down what it is to do or be, (3) The University is given authorities, bodies, and boards to control its activities, (4) The life of the University moves under the direction of its officers, and (5) The activities are carried on by the teachers within an apparatus of instruction: admissions, courses, terms, examinations, degrees etc. (The Indian University, Popular Prakashan, Bombay, 1965) Barnes (1986: 180) defines a university as an institution of higher learning, consisting of several colleges, and competent to awards advanced degrees and engages in research activities (The American University: A World Guide. New Delhi: Allied Publishers, 1986). He identifies elsewhere in the work cited, a set of three conditions that it must meet to be called a university: (a) it must offer graduate, i.e. post-baccalaureate degrees, at least a Master of Arts or Master of Science, but probably the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, (b) it must have more than one graduate, i.e. first degree programme, and (c) the faculty in it must engage in research and publication (Adapted, op cit, pp.23 and 26). A university, therefore, (i) is an institution of higher learning, (ii) has the power to grant and confer degrees, (iii) is the body of teachers and administrative staff, (iv) has students: undergraduates, graduate, and research scholars, (v) has a college or colleges that are its constituents or are affiliated to it, (vi) has infrastructural and physical facilities of its own, (vii) imparts education and conducts examinations, (viii) engages in research and publication, and (ix) offers extension services and undertakes corporate activities. Autonomous as a matter of principle, it has the right to make a choice of new disciplines it would like to add to the list of specialisations it has to offer. A university differs from the other institutions of higher learning such as colleges and polytechnics that also cater to tertiary education. It is usually known by the kind of contribution it makes in the five major areas of functioning, viz. teaching, research, extension services, consultancy, and corporate activities. Teaching and research are complementary much in the same way as extension services and corporate activities are. Each of these binary divisions is congruent and even interdependent. Unless founded on a strong research support, teaching becomes tedious and trite. Universities that have ceased to remain alive to the needs of the society they seek to serve and keep working toward their fulfilment, or those that suddenly come to discover that extension services are meaningless and corporate activities are but only a waste of time, end up snapping their fragile bonds with the society. A good university has its ears held close to the ground in order to hear the rumblings of the oncoming change, and has both the will and the ability to affect suitable changes in keeping with the newer needs identified in the process. Sardar Patel University feels blessed because it is one of the select universities in the state to have received funds made available by the state government under the Rastriya Uchcha Shiksha Abhiyan. We, as a university, have never fought shy of making full and complete disclosure on the state of our curricula, teaching-learning processes, examinations and evaluation, research, extension services, consultancy services, activities, achievements, shortcomings, finances etc. This report is the sum total of all this and more and the last chapter titled “Looking Ahead” lists what we propose to do in the year to come. This report in your hand is the product of team work and many minds and hands. All the Heads of the Departments contributed their share. The members of the editorial board including Professor (Dr) N V Sastry, Dr Dinesh Karia, Mr Bharat B Patel, Dr (Ms) Jyotiben Tiwari, v Director, G H Patel Computer Centre, Sardar Patel University, Dr (Ms) Rupal Vasant, Dr Mayank Bhatt, Assistant Registrar (Academics) and Mr Tushar Majmudar, Deputy Registrar (IQAC, ISC) of the editorial board for their intellectual inputs and active contribution; and the technical assistance of Dr Chandresh Gadhavi, Mr Kaiwal K Patel, and Mr Nirav B Patel, for collecting, collating, composing, and correcting the final report proof-read and approved by the editorial board.

PATEL ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR SMT.R.R.H.PATEL MAHILA ARTS COLLEGE, VIJAPUR DIST.MEHSANA (GUJARAT) 2015 Preface Literature reflects human emotions, thoughts and expressions. It’s a record of activities and abstract ideas of human beings. The oral tradition of literature is the aspect of literature passing ideas and feelings mouth to mouth. I’ve enjoyed going through the precious and rare pieces of folk literature collected and edited by Amrut Patel. I congratulate and salute Amrut Patel for rendering valuable service to this untouchable, vanishing field of civilization. His efforts to preserve the vanishing forms of oral tradition stand as milestone for future generation and students of folk literature. I am indebted to UGC for sanctioning the project.

  • A Comparative Study of O. Henry and Pannalal Patel's Selected Love Stories
    A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF O. HENRY AND PANNALAL PATEL’S SELECTED LOVE STORIES Dr. Shaurya Brahmbhatt Ms. Jayana Jayendrabhai Gajjar Abstract: ‘Love’ has always been a topic of interest for people around the world. Poets, novelists, painters, dancers have multiple works dedicated to ‘love’ and it seems they can’t get enough of it. Friendship, anger, cares, jealousies are emotions attached to love and have been dealt with by authors of the world. The ancient and the modern, the teens and the adults, males and female are in awe of ‘love’. This makes it a very interesting subject for study. William Sydney Porter, better known as O. Henry has written almost 300 short stories on various themes. He never failed to surprise the readers with a twist at the end of his stories. Pannalal Patel is a celebrated Gujarati author who, like Henry, has almost 20 short story collection under his name. He too has dealt with various themes including love, crime, sacrifice and more. The current paper focuses on comparing the love stories by these authors. The selected stories are The Gift of Magi and Witches’ Loaves by O. Henry and Sukh Dukh na Sathi and Nirupay by Pannalal Patel. As both, the writers belonged to two entirely different places and were active during a different time, the comparison of their stories will help to learn the idea of ‘love’ as the authors see it and the treatment of ‘love’ in their stories. Key Words: jealousy, ancient, celebrated, entirely, treatment “Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living, and, above all those who live without love.” Says professor Dumbledore reminding Harry of the importance of love in one’s life.

  • Breath Becoming a Word
    BREATH BECOMING A WORD CONTMPORARY GUJARATI POETRY IN ENGLISH TRANSLATION EDITED BY DILEEP JHAVERI ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My earnest thanks to GUJARAT SAHITYA AKADEMI for publishing this book and to Harshad Trivedi. With his wholehearted support a dream is fulfilled. Several of these translations have appeared in INDIAN LITERATURE- Sahitya Akademi Delhi MUSEINDIA KRITYA- web journals and elsewhere. Thanks to all of them. Cover page painting by Late Jagdeep Smart with the kind permission of Smt Nita Smart and Rajarshi Smart Dedicated to PROF. K. SATCHIDANANDAN The eminent poet of Malayalam who has continuously inspired other Indian languages while becoming a sanctuary for the survival of Poetry. BREATH BECOMING A WORD It’s more than being in love, boy, though your ringing voice may have flung your dumb mouth thus: learn to forget those fleeting ecstasies. Far other is breath of real singing. An aimless breath. A stirring in the god. A breeze. Rainer Maria Rilke From Sonnets To Orpheus This is to celebrate the breath becoming a word and the joy of word turning into poetry. This is to welcome the lovers of poetry in other languages to participate in the festival of contemporary Gujarati poetry. Besides the poets included in this selection there are many who have contributed to the survival of Gujarati poetry and there are many other poems of the poets in this edition that need to be translated. So this is also an invitation to the friends who are capable to take over and add foliage and florescence to the growing garden of Gujarati poetry. Let more worthy individuals undertake the responsibility to nurture it with their taste and ability.
