The Course Description
Poetry is a very important genre of English Literature. The course in semester II is designed in such a manner that the students will have to learn the different forms of poetry before they study and make an analysis of poems. In order to understand, appreciate, analyse, interpret and criticize a poem, students need to learn the various aspects of poetry such as Rhyme, Rhythm, Diction, Imagery, Symbolism, Tone, Mood, Attitude and the figures of speech. During the course, students will be introduced to all these important aspects of the study of poetry. Besides, students will also be encouraged to develop qualities such as intellectual capability, emotional liveliness and moral honesty that are essential to judge a poem. Further, the course aims at laying a strong foundation to learn and understand all the finer aspects of poetry so that the future study of poetry becomes easy, providing better understanding and offering true pleasure.

Course Description
The course exposes the students to the four genres of literature: prose, poetry, drama and short story. The post textual activities covers a range of language needs of the students with specific inputs on vocabulary, spelling, pronunciation, grammar, punctuation, reading, writing and speaking skills. The text can be used as a pretext to meet a variety of real life communication needs: give and seek information, to express opinions, to engage with practical, emotional, intellectual and creative aspects of language by integrating knowledge and skills. The exercises and the pre reading activities supplement the main texts to draw the students' attention to gain wider insights on the implicit and explicit learning components, besides encouraging them to connect with real life situations. The book emphasizes on use rather than the usage, on how the English language is used rather than how it should be used. This book is one such tool which would help the students in honing English language and comprehension skills that would in turn help the students communicate effectively. Each chapter is organized in such a way that it creates a lot of involvement and encouragement to the learner.
