Course Objectives/Course Description |
|
The Additional English course is offered as a second language course and seeks to introduce the students to the nuances of English literature in its varied forms and genres. The students who choose Additional English are generally proficient in the English language. Hence, instead of focusing on introducing them to language, challenging texts in terms of ideas, form, and technique are chosen. Additional English as a course is designed for students in place of a regional language. Non-Resident Indians (NRIs), foreign nationals and students who have not taken Hindi, Kannada, Tamil or French at the Plus 2 or Class XII levels are eligible to choose Additional English. The course is taught for students from different streams, namely, BA, BSc, BCom, and BBA in the first year and for BA, BSc and BCom (Regular) in the second year. The first year syllabus is an attempt by the Department of English, Christ University to recognize and bring together the polyphonic Indian and Indian sub-continental voices in English in English translation for the Additional English students of the first year. This effort aims to familiarize the students with regional literatures in translation, Indian Writing in English (IWE) and literatures from Pakistan, Nepal and Srilanka, thereby, enabling the students to learn more about Indian culture and ethos through writings from different regions of the country. We have tried to represent in some way or the other the corners of India and the Indian sub-continent in this microcosmic world of short stories, poems and essays
There is a prescribed text bookfor the first year students, compiled by the Department of English, Christ University and intended for private circulation. The first semester has a variety of writing from India, Pakistan and Nepal. The various essays, short stories and poems deal with various socio-economic, cultural and political issues that are relevant to modern day India and the Indian sub-continent and will enable students to comprehend issues of identity-politics, caste, religion, class, and gender. All of the selections either in the manner of their writing, the themes they deal with or the ideologies that govern them are contemporary in relevance and sensibility, whether written by contemporary writers or earlier writers. An important addition to this syllabus is the preponderance of North-Eastern writing which was hitherto not well represented. Excerpts from interviews, autobiographical writings, sports and city narratives are added to this section to introduce students to the varied genres of literature. The objectives of this course are to expose students to the rich literary and cultural diversity of Indian literatures to sensitise students on the social, political, historical and cultural ethos that has shaped the nation- INDIA to enable to grasp and appreciate the variety and abundance of Indian writing, of which this compilation is just a passing glance to learn and appreciate India through association of ideas in the texts and the external contexts (BhashaUtsav will be an intrinsic help in this endeavour)

History and Schools of Thought
|
|
In this unit, we will examine the history of Western psychological theorizing from its beginnings in ancient Greece, through to the schools and perspectives of psychology including Structuralism, Functionalism, Psychodynamic, Biological, Behavioristic, Gestalt, Cognitive, Cross-cultural, Humanistic and Evolutionary. The aim is both to build a familiarity with psychology’s intellectual origins and to foster an awareness of its many false steps, dead-ends, and alternative pathways to gain a better appreciation of the social, cultural, and, above all, psychological influences on the theorizing of psychologists. Students will be able to define psychology and understand what psychologists do and identify the major fields of study and theoretical perspectives within psychology and know their similarities and differences.

Course Description
This course is taught in the second year for students from different streams, namely BA, BSc
and BCom. If the first year syllabus is an attempt by the Department of English, Christ
University to recognize and bring together the polyphonic Indian voices in English and Indian
regional literatures in translation for the Additional English students of the first year, the
second year syllabus intends to take that project a little further and open up the engagement
of the students to texts from across the world. The syllabus - selection of texts will
concentrate on readings from South Asian, Latin American, Australian, Canadian, and Afro-
American. It will voice subaltern concerns of identity, gender, race, ethnicity and problems of
belongingness experienced by humanity all over the globe.
The syllabus will extend the concerns of nation and nationality and marginalization,
discussed within the Indian context to a more inclusive and wider global platform. We have
consciously kept out ‘mainstream’ writers and concentrated on the voices of the subalterns
from across the world. There is an implicit recognition in this project that though the aspects
of marginalization and the problems facing subalterns are present across cultures and
nations, the experiences, expressions and reflections are specific to each race and culture.
The course will address these nuances and specificities and enable our students to become
more aware and sensitive to life and reality around them. This will equip the students, who
are global citizens, to understand not just the Indian scenario, but also situate themselves
within the wider global contexts and understand the spaces they will move into and negotiate
in their future.
There is a prescribed text book Blends: Voices from Margins for the second year students,
compiled by the Department of English, Christ University and intended for private circulation. Course Objectives
The course objectives are
to enable students to look at different cultures through Literature
to help students develop an understanding of subaltern realities and identity politics
to inculcate literary sensibility/taste among students across disciplines
to improve language skills –speaking, reading, writing and listening
to equip the students with tools for developing lateral thinking
to equip students with critical reading and thinking habits
to reiterate the study skills and communication skills they developed in the previous
year and extend it. |

Course Outcome |
