MA English at Ambedkar University Delhi Offline Course

MA English is a full time two-year post-graduate degree course offered by Bharat Ratna Dr. BR Ambedkar University, Delhi.

The Masters Programme in English proposes to dismantle the hierarchy between British Literature and other literature in English, including literature in translation. It seeks to bring into focus the significance of literature belonging to lesser-known languages and regions. Strengthening the overall vision of Ambedkar University Delhi, this programme hopes to orient students towards the engaged and reflective scholarship. A concern with social and literary margins will consistently guide the programme’s overall vision, philosophy and content. It is hoped that the programme’s ethical concern with linking education to the lives and struggles of individuals and communities will enable the students to form a holistic understanding of literature. It will also help them to develop deeper psychic, social and creative sensibilities. It is further envisaged that through this programme the students will develop a critical sensibility towards the larger politics of culture, society and state so that they actively and artistically interrogate and intervene within the givens of the hegemonic political and cultural order.
