Research Work
Major thrust areas in which Research activities
are being actively pursued :
Nineteenth Century Literature
Twenteeth Century Literature
Ongoing Research Project
Thrust Area
Literary and cultural interface between Bengal and Britain in the Nineteenth
and Twentieth Centuries.
This award by the UGC to a department
of Calcutta University is a recognition of the unique contribution of Bengal to the cultural paradigms that have shaped modern India, and is the first such specialised UGC-assisted research programme in the
country. The thrust area of this programme - Literary and Cultural Interface between Bengal and Britain in the 19th and 20th centuries - will enable the Department of English to look at the complex processes
of nation-building and the formation of national consciousness, while conducting in-depth research on the social and cultural life of
Bengal. |
