Feminism and Women Empowerment

The Department of English organised a skit on "Feminism and Women Empowerment". It's aim was to showcase the gender inequalities within society through a dystopian narrative where men suffer the same ordeal women go through at every nook and corner of their lives. By reversing the gender roles, we try to question the gender norms shoveled down the throats of women by patriarchal forces within the society and also pin-point explicitly the hollowness behind the same.

Quotation Station

The Department of English organized an activity “ Quotation Station” where students were instructed to pen down literary quotes of different authors spread across various literary movements. These quotes provide the world with a ray of hope, they moralize and give deep insights into a world beyond the one we witness with our naked eyes. Not only these quotes have a metaphorical depth, they also enhance our creative faculties through sublime forms of expression. As CS Lewis says- "Literature adds to reality, it does not simply describe it.”

Treasure Hunt

To make concept learning fun for the final year students of English literature, Treasure Hunt Activity was organized, wherein the students were asked to hunt for an object from their homes which justified their understanding of realism. Realism means, "representation of the subject matter truthfully, without artificiality..." The activity impressed the students to apply their minds in observing their surroundings and find the application of their classroom understanding in real life objects. As the students enjoyed their hunt, the activity saw some really creative and insightful object interpretations through; a rubberband jar, a bottle with a lid, a candle, an empty glass, to name a few. Through this activity the student's interpretations concluded realism as a broader concept with multiple facets beyond the photographic depiction of reality.
