BA ENGLISH SYLLABUS FOR SEMESTER COURSE

ENGLISH MAJOR

The new BA English syllabus develops from the innovative and expansive thrust of the previous one and is designed to prepare students to understand and use the English language effectively, build vocabulary and introduce them to current ideas and issues as represented in some of the best examples of English writing. This is true of the General, the Alternative, the Elective and the Major Courses. The idea is to offer students more matter and more choices, and with the adoption of this philosophy, not only new texts, but entirely new papers have been added. For example, for students with Major, there are new papers on ‘Nature’ and ‘Myth’. Attention has been paid to emerging ‘voices,’ that is, voices originating in locations other than the West. Indian writing continues to receive the emphasis and importance it deserves, and this syllabus may see the consolidation of a vision predicated on promoting Indian culture – obviously through its literary manifestations. This is the case in all genres of writing: novel, drama, poetry, non-fictional prose. The importance given to women’s writing is underscored through the revisions effected in the Optional Paper on women’s literature and the introduction of a new compulsory paper on women’s writing. In general, there are several texts by and on women. The BA syllabus is a preparatory step to higher studies in English and related disciplines, and therefore the students are exposed to Theory, the kind that will help to open up their intellectual horizons and give them glimpses of the rigour that is now increasingly demanded in English studies which is moving away from de-contextualized studies of a few ‘great’ isolated texts. Such theory is incorporated particularly in the compulsory papers on Fiction and Drama, two papers on Criticism and Theory and in the optional paper on women’s literature. There are two new optional papers on African Literature and Language and Linguistics now appears as a new two-paper option. On the whole a balance has been sought to be sustained between canonical works and newer kinds of writing. Most of the radical changes have been made in the Major course, but the papers on General English, Alternative English and Elective English have also been adequately revised and every effort has been made to make them interesting for students who do not wish to or need not specialize in English literature. Some of the best critical books in a particular area have been chosen to supplement class-room teaching and these are included in the section Recommended Reading in each paper, and it is indeed strongly recommended that students try to get hold of these books and read them (Many of these books are published by Indian publishers now, and should therefore be accessible). On the whole it is hoped that this syllabus will encourage and equip the students to take the next logical step in their career after getting their BA degrees, that is, enroll in various MA programmes if they are majoring in English, or pursue higher studies anyway, if they are not.

Marks Rationale: Of the 100 marks that every paper carries in the first 4 semesters 20 marks is allocated for internal assessment. In the 5th and 6th semesters each paper carries 75 marks of which 15 marks is allocated for internal assessment. Internal assessment may be made through objective type unit tests, small research projects on single topics or authors, home assignments or seminar presentations, or a judicious mix of any of these.

SEMESTER V

PAPER 9 Modern Drama I Marks 75 (60+15) [15 Marks Internal Assessment]. Credits: 6

This paper will introduce students to 20th century English and European drama. It is to be noted that by the turn of the century, the European avant-garde had completely altered the theatre – which at this juncture, seems to become a pan-European phenomenon, with stylistic/technical innovations and thematic experimentation. In the early phase of this period, realism is the dominant technique, and is then followed by radical turns away from it. Students are expected to acquaint themselves with the European historical and cultural situation in this period to read the prescribed theoretical texts in Section I and the plays in Section II. Students will have to answer 2 questions of 12 marks each (2x12=24) from Section I; 3 short questions of 7 marks each (3x7=21) and 2 essay-type questions of 15 marks each (2x15=30) from section II.

Section I: Essays (2x12)  Bertolt Brecht (1898-1956): “On Experimental Theatre”  Antonin Artaud (1896-1948): “Oriental and Occidental Theatre”.

Section II: Plays (3x7 + 2x15)  George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950): Arms and the Man*  Anton Chekhov (1860-1904): The Cherry Orchard*  Bertolt Brecht (1898-1956): Galileo

PAPER 10 Modern Drama II Marks 75 (60+15) [15 Marks Internal Assessment]. Credits: 6

The epoch of modern drama marks the proliferation of avant-garde theory within the theatre making it self-conscious, and experimental. The impact of contemporary philosophy, ideas and art movements like existentialism, expressionism, impressionism, Marxism and the Absurd reverberates in modern drama. These innovations, both in form and content co-exist alongside the revival of earlier forms like the poetic drama. Students are expected to approach the texts in this paper in the light of the ideas, issues and texts in Paper 9. Students will have to answer 2 questions of 12 marks each (2x12=24) from Section I. Questions could be exclusively on these theoretical/introductory pieces or be linked to the plays prescribed in both Papers 9 and 10. There will be 2 short questions of 6 marks each (6x2=12) and 2 essay-type questions of 12 marks each (12x2=24) from Section II

Section I: Essays (2x12)  Arthur Miller (1915-2005): “Introduction” to the Collected Plays  Martin Esslin (1918-2002): “Introduction” to The Theatre of the Absurd

Section II: Plays (3x7 + 2x15)  T.S.Eliot (1888-1965): Murder in the Cathedral  Samuel Beckett (1906-1989): Waiting for Godot*  Arthur Miller (1915-2005): Death of A Salesman*

PAPER 11 The Essay in English: Addison to Dickens Marks 75 (60+15) [15 Marks Internal Assessment]. Credits: 6

This paper introduces students to the literary form of the essay through a selection of representative texts from the 18th and 19th centuries. Students will have to acquaint themselves with the development of the form from the time of Francis Bacon (1561-1626), and examine the emergence of the periodical essay in the 18th century in the hands of Addison and Steele particularly because of favourable conditions like the increase in literacy rates and the appearance of a large number of periodicals which provided a forum for the articulation of views on a variety of topics. The essays are to be studied in relation to the wider political, social, and cultural context while noting the variety of themes that have been treated in the genre as also the diversity of styles of writing from the personal, intimate note of Lamb which is in keeping with the subjective thrust of Romantic literature to the detached, argumentative strain of later times. Students will have to answer 4 essay-type questions of 12 marks each (4x12=48) on the form as well as on the distinctive traits of an individual essayist, his outlook on life, attitude to society etc. as evidenced from the prescribed essays. Students will also have to explain two passages (2x6=12) with reference to their contexts from the essays marked with asterisks. Texts: (4x12 + 2x6)  Joseph Addison (1672-1719): The Aims of the Spectator*  Richard Steele (1672-1729): The Spectator Club  Charles Lamb (1775-1834): The Chimney Sweeper  William Hazlitt (1778-1830): On Going A Journey*  Charles Dickens (1812-1870): Washington: The Legislature and the President’s House(Chapter 8 of American Notes)

PAPER 12 The Essay in English: The Twentieth Century Marks 75 (60+15) [15 Marks Internal Assessment]. Credits: 6

This paper will introduce students to developments in the genre of the essay in the 20th century. Students will note how the genre has adapted in order to address a variety of contemporary issues and become the vehicle for representing personal experiences, moved into literary, social, and cultural criticism and engaged in polemic and persuasion. The essays are to be read against their intellectual and socio-cultural background, noting the shift away from the elevated, literary, and classical style of earlier times to a general tendency towards factual and referential writing and a style more direct, immediate, and colloquial. Students will have to answer 4 questions of 12 marks each and explain two passages with reference to their contexts; each explanation will carry 6 marks. Texts: (4x12 + 2x6)  Virgina Woolf (1882-1941): The Art of the Essay  D.H.Lawrence (1885-1930): Why the Novel Matters*  Verrier Elwin (1902-1964): The Pilgrimage to Tawang  George Orwell (1903-1950): Notes on Nationalism*

PAPER 13 Life Writing: Biographies, Memoirs and Letters Marks 75 (60+15) [15 Marks Internal Assessment]. Credits: 6

In traditional approaches to life writing the emphasis has fallen on the resonant drama of the lives of great people for the way these model lives yield valuable insights about universal human nature. Now we look for the element of ‘story’ in this exemplary ‘histories’ and the material conditions under which the loftiest works are written. With our new found scepticism about aspects such as transcendent achievements and truth-telling (aspects enshrined in traditional life-writing), we look at problematic issues such as self-construction and self-representation. This paper will enable the students to appreciate the element of narrativization in seemingly linear, transparent, straight forward accounts of lives of significant people set down in memoirs, biographies and letters. The student will hopefully appreciate the ‘literary’ or constructed nature of life-writing purportedly telling nothing but the truth, as also note the ‘textual’ nature of all lives- that these lives in a way are re-made for each succeeding generation of readers through the act of transmission/ telling. Life-writing presenting ideals of exemplariness, is a genre with distinctive features that has been traditionally studied for the negotiation between great people, the drama of whose lives are regarded as records of transcendent achievements made against a host of obstacles and against the flux of time. Now the individual histories of significant (rather than great) people are also studied for the element of story in it. This paper will try to have that sense of narrativization which inform all that text, which underscore the ‘literary’ quality of all texts (and the ‘textual’ nature of all texts) by looking at various forms of life-writing such as memoirs, letters and biographies. The texts also enable one to deal with issues of representations and constructions as in the case of Trollope's Autobiography who reminds us through his rationalisations regarding his desire for profit that any text has a material basis, and it is salutary to pay attention to the material context of production and consumption. Students will have to answer 4 questions of 12 marks each and 2 short questions carrying 6 marks. Texts: (4x12 + 2x6)  Samuel Johnson (1709-1784): Life of Pope  Anthony Trollope (1815 – 1882): Autobiography, Chapter 6, “Barchester Towers and The Three Clerks “; Chapter 12, “On Novels and The Art of Writing Fiction”.  R. K. Narayan(1906 – 2001): My Days  Ashutosh Mukherjee's(1864 – 1924): Letter to Lord Lytton, dated March 26, 1924.  Rabindranath Tagore: (1861 – 1941): Letter to the Viceroy, dated May 30, 1919 renouncing 17

Knighthood; Letter to Gandhi on fast, dated May 11, 1933’ (Both from The Mahatma and the Poet. Ed. Sabyasachi Bhattacharyya)  Franz Kafka(1883 – 1924): ‘Letter to my father’ dated November 10, 1919  Emily Dickinson :(1830 - 1886) Letters to Mrs. Samuel Bowles (Winter 1858; 1859; August 1861)

PAPER 14 Women’s Writing Marks 75 (60+15) [15 Marks Internal Assessment]. Credits: 6

This paper on writing by women introduces students to a body of literature that has emerged with growing feminist awareness of women’s lives and their representation. It invites students to examine how women’s texts pay attention to the historical and political conditions of their times, to the status and condition of women and to the ways in which they embody a politics of resistance. It expects students to look at the way a woman writer participates in the questions of selfhood, at women’s relations with men and with other women, and at the implications of women speaking, writing, and empowering themselves by finding their own voices and interrogating women’s work and roles in society. Particular attention should be given to women’s use of language, their preference for certain genres that are assumed to be liberating, and the ways in which they have transformed and made some genres their own. Students will address women’s issues and interests, the condition of women in the place and time of the writer and uses and subversions effected in the genre of the novel by women in Section I. There will be 2 essay-type questions of 12 marks each (2x12=24), and 1 question of 8 marks (1x8=8) from this section. From Section II, the students will be expected to address the use of these autobiographical forms by women and the specifically gendered experiences and perspectives that they represent. They are to answer two questions of 8 marks each (2x8=16) from this section. Section III will introduce students to contemporary Indian women poets writing in English in order to show how these poets have extended both the subject matter and idiom of poetry. Students will have to answer one question of 12 marks (1x12=12).

PAPER 17 Nature Marks 75 (60+15) [15 Marks Internal Assessment]. Credits: 6

Ecological literary criticism, or ecocriticism, emerged as a powerful field of study in the early 1990s, and has now become, like race, class and gender, an important dimension of literary and cultural studies. It is “the study of the relationship between literature and the physical environment”, examining literary texts through “an earth-centred approach”. This paper seeks to explore the process through which language and literature – as manifestations of culture – are produced by the interconnections between both nature and culture; it addresses nature not just as a passive background in literary texts but as a central presence determining the dynamic interpretations of the text itself. It seeks to understand and interrogate the representations of nature in literary texts; to examine whether there is a difference between how men and women depict and respond to nature; to ponder over the possibility of characterising nature writing as a completely new genre; to look at ways through which our understanding of and relationship has changed over the centuries as the human race has achieved varying degrees of ‘progress’; and to question the very idea of ‘progress’ itself and its manifestations in the face of a serious environmental crisis. It will also be an attempt to revisit texts generated at various ages in history with a view to re-appraise the relationship between the human and the natural world as reflected in literature. Section I This section will attempt to look at the changing notions of the relationship between humans and nature and between nature and culture over the ages. For example, during the Anglo-Saxon age, nature constituted a synthesis of ‘pagan’ elements (like animism and mother worship) and early Christian notions. A sense of fatalism and resignation to the ways of nature defined the medieval response to nature, while in the Elizabethan age nature was invested with moral attributes. The Enlightenment registered the beginnings of the split between nature and culture. During the later 17th century there were attempts to conquer or mould nature into cultural patterns by rigorous attention to geometrical order and symmetry in the creation of gardens. This trend continued well into the 18th century when gardens registered changing notions of nature (see Pope’s “Epistle to Burlington”). However, that age also saw the emergence of a newer notion of the garden (particularly in England) that tried to recreate the natural environment with its asymmetry within the bounds of the garden itself. Romantic attitudes to nature, Transcendentalism, and later, nature as an irrevocable agent of destruction are trends that defined the 19th century. The 20th century registers a quest for the reinstatement of nature as a positive creative process in the context of modernity and urbanisation. 25

In this section students will study concepts and ideas that have been integral to the understanding of nature in the various ages in England and America and answer 2 questions of 10 marks each or 4 questions of 5 marks each. (2x10 / 4x5)  The Sublime (Burke)  The Picturesque  Landscaping and improvement  Romanticism and Nature  Pastoral  Reason/Nature  Women and nature Section II In this section students will study diverse texts representing attitudes to nature at different points of time in England and America and answer 4 questions of 10 marks each. (4x10) Texts:  Alexander Pope (1688-1744): Epistle to Burlington  Charlotte Smith(1749-1806): Written at the Close of Spring, The Sea View  William Blake (1757-1827): To Spring, To Autumn  William Wordsworth (1770-1850): Selection from The Prelude (The Boat Stealing Episode, Book I, ll. 357-400)  John Clare (1793-1864): The Peasant Poet, The Cat Runs Races With Her Tail  Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862): Selections from Walden [The Ponds]  Emily Dickinson (1830-1886): A Bird Came Down the Walk, A Narrow Fellow in the Grass  Lord Alfred Tennyson (1809-1892): From In Memoriam [Sections 55, 56]  Charles Darwin (1809-1882): From The Origin of Species [‘Struggle for Existence’]  G.

PAPER 18

Western Mythology: Introducing Classical & Judeo-Christian Myth

Marks 75 (60+15) [15 Marks Internal Assessment]. Credits: 6

This course is an introduction to the study of Classical and Judeo-Christian myth and their recurrence in later social, historical, cultural and literary contexts. It is expected to provide a gateway to the reception of mythical ideas and images in western art and literary cultures. In the first section the emphasis is on obtaining knowledge of a specific range of myths and mythical characters and their function, and in the second section, we study the presentation of myths in a variety of literary material – in poetry, drama and fiction.

Section I: Introduction to Myth

In a short introduction, students will negotiate with the concept of myth, and will be introduced to western classical antiquity through a selection of figures, stories and episodes from western mythology in order to make them acquainted with their genealogy and symbolism. Students will have to answer 4 short questions of 5 marks each from this section (4x5=20)

 The Greek Pantheon (the Twelve Greek gods) & The Titans (Kronos, Atlas)

 Hercules, Perseus, Icarus (the demigods / heroes)

PAPERS 19 AND 20 (Optional Papers)

Option A: Indian English Literature

The two papers in this Option introduce students to the distinctive literature produced in India in the wake of English education, first under British colonial rule and then after independence. Since there has been a distinction made in the study of this literature between pre and post independence concerns, this is an element that should be kept in mind while studying the texts in this paper. At the same time, given the student’s present location in modern India an attempt has to be made to place texts in this context and read them in the light of the historical, cultural and political circumstances of their production. A conception of modern India along with some preliminary knowledge of the politics of British ideas about the entity India is desirable for entry into and understanding of the area that has come to be called Indian English Literature.

It is expected that knowledge of this literature against this particular intellectual backdrop and in its vigorous and idiosyncratic interpretations of modern India, will help students to articulate themselves as individuals, readers and critics, and develop reading positions that will facilitate their engagement with all the literature they will study in the Major Course.

Indeed since the development of a critical position is perceived to be as important as interpreting the literature, the first paper in this Option offers basic readings that address some of the questions relevant to this area. Issues discussed in these readings are expected to give students a foundation in ideas that will help in the readings of literary texts in these papers. Questions in both papers will try and elicit from students their understanding of texts against this background, being both textual and contextual. PAPER 19 Indian English Literature: Intellectual Contexts Marks 75 (60+15) [15 Marks Internal Assessment]. Credits: 6

Section A: Contexts Students will answer 2 questions of 12 marks and 2 short questions of 6 marks each on the argument and the issues raised by the texts prescribed.

(from The Idea of India) 30

Section B: Non-Fictional Prose Students will answer 1 question of 10 marks and I short question of 5 marks or 3 questions of 5 marks each from the following texts. (10+5 or 5x3) Texts:  M.K. Gandhi (1869-1948): The Gita and Satyagraha (from The Writings of Gandhi edited by Ronald Duncan. New Delhi: Rupa, 1993))  Jawaharlal Nehru (1889-1964):The Indian Philosophical Approach (Chapter 5); The Importance of the National Idea (Chapter 10) (all selections from The Discovery of India)  Amartya Sen (1933 - ): The Argumentative Indian (from The Argumentative Indian: Writings on Indian Culture, History and Identity)

PAPER 20 Indian Poetry, Fiction and Drama

Marks 75 (60+15) [15 Marks Internal Assessment]. Credits: 6

Section A: Poetry In this section, students will answer two short questions (which may be context questions) and one long question which could be on an individual poet, on trends, themes or on the poetry set against a cultural and historical background. For example the poetry of Toru Dutt may be read in the light of the development of early nationalist consciousness as well as in the context of ‘women and nationalism.’ (12+5x2) Texts:  Toru Dutt (1856-1877): Our Casuarina Tree; Sita.  A.K Ramanujan 1929-1933): Self Portrait; Breaded Fish; Love Poems for a Wife1.  Eunice de Souza (1940-): Advice to Women; For Rita’s Daughter; Twice Born.  Aga Shahid Ali (1949-2001): Postcard from Kashmir; Snowmen; The Season of the Plains; Cracked Portraits.

Section B: Fiction Questions here may be on the location of each writer, the development of a ‘narrative world’ in each text, and the modern Indian milieu with its class and caste divisions, social and moral values, and human relationships that each text represents in unique and individual ways. (12+10)  R.K Narayan (1906-2001): The Guide  Anita Desai (1937- ): Fire on the Mountain 31

 Namita Gokhale (1956 -): Shakuntala

Section C: Drama The plays in this section, translated from regional languages into English are deeply embedded in folk and classical dramatic traditions and are expected to be studied against this context. At the same time the adaptation of these traditional forms, themes and conventions to interpret contemporary issues will also be kept in mind. Questions will accordingly address these issues. (12+4) Texts:  Girish Karnad (1938-): Tughlak  Vijay Tendulkar 1928-2008): Kanyadaan (from Collected Plays in Translation)

Option B: American Literature

Papers 19 and 20 (Option B) introduce students to the distinctive flavour of American Literature. Students will be expected to have a broad overview of the historical development of this literature and study texts against their socio-historical contexts. For example, a novel by Melville will be studied against the panorama of the American Renaissance of the 19th century, which includes the literary- philosophical impetus of Transcendentalism, and it is expected that students will familiarize themselves with other literary experiments of the period.

In keeping with current developments in the approaches to American literature, students will also be expected to consider the axes of race and gender as vital components of literary production.

Therefore, while no attempt is made to be exhaustive, a fair sample of texts produced under varied conditions is required to be studied. Short pieces are prescribed in order to facilitate comprehension. However the large number of texts will in no way provide an opportunity for random omission, since questions may often be cross-referential, or on a cluster of texts, and not necessarily confined to one text or author

.

Option E: African Literature in English

In the essay “The African Writer and the English Language” Chinua Achebe noted that the writers’ gathering at Makerere rather pompously called “A Conference of African Writers of English Expression” failed to come to a conclusion about a clear definition of the term “African Literature”.

PAPER 8

Other Literatures Marks 100 (80+20) [20 Marks Internal Assessment]. Credits: 8

The internationalization of disciplines which began with Modernism and increased with globalization and the internet has made it imperative for students of English literature to familiarize themselves with literatures produced in regions other than the Anglo-American. This paper is an attempt to bring to 59 students texts from some of the European languages that are available in translation as well as well as those that have been produced in the wake of colonialism in various parts of the world. By its very intention this is a random selection with attention focusing not on chronology but on location. Texts belonging to several genres are drawn from a number of cultures and it is expected that students will study each text with due attention to the cultures in which they emerge

Kafka (1883-1924): Metamorphosis Chekhov(1860-1904): The Cherry Orchard Wole Soyinka (1934 -): A Dance of the Forests Romesh Gunesekhara (1954 -) Reef

Rainer Maria Rilke (1875 – 1926): “Along the Sun Drenched Roadside”, “Archaic Torso of Apollo”
