Hello,

I presume your query is in reference to your previous question which I answered, see in IGNOU MEG explores more detailed study of  English and American Literature along with Canadian/Australian/Indian English literature, the course structure also focuses on deep understanding of evolution of the language, its studies and covering various aspects of it, As your rightly said, there are four compulsory paper in first year which are British Poetry/Drama/Novel and Aspects of Language, and in second year also there is one compulsory paper that is Literary Criticism and Theory, you can choose any three amongst the following-

  • American Literature
  • Indian English Literature
  • New Literatures in English
  • Australian Literature
  • English studies in India
  • American Novel
  • A survey course in 20th Century Canadian Literature
  • Contemporary Indian Literature in English Translation
  • Comparative Literature : Theory and Practice
  • Indian Folk Literature
