PGD in Writings from the Margins (PGDWM)

The goal of the Post Graduate Diploma in Writings from the Margins is to make students aware of new literature that is being marginalised. It explores issues affecting the underprivileged in our nation and analyses them through autobiography, poetry, theatre, critical thought, and language, as well as Dalit and tribal narratives. This programme also investigates the idea of Indian literature and closely examines significant pieces, such as plays, poems, short stories, and non-fictional prose in English translations. As it discusses representative oral and written folk literatures from around the world and familiarises the students with folk and tribal forms of Indian Bhasha literatures, it provides a glimpse into folklore. Finally, we examine literary theory and criticism, which has been an essential component of curricula in colleges and universities around the world since classical times. This includes romantic critique, new criticism, feminist ideas, deconstruction, and modern theories.
