Review on the teachings of Prof. Balaji Ranganathan

Learning experience..

Recently I have attended the expert lecture on postcolonial theory. The expert lecture was organised by our head of the department, Dr. Dilip Barad sir. I'm very glad to attend the lectures on postcolonialism. Prof. Ranganathan is specialist in postcolonialism, sow me and my classmates were got the chance to learn from his knowledge. His style was very unique, he was given us various examples, and through the examples we all are understand in a better way.

We have another session on NET/SLET. In that lecture he taught us different formula to remember the history, criticism etc. Here I'm giving more information about the teachings of Prof. Ranganathan, from which we all are get influenced.

Four units
1. The Black skin White mask by Frantz Fanon
2. Orientalism by Edward Said
3. A Tempest by Aime Cesaire and
4. Imaginary Homeland by Salman Rushdie
Each of the units are clear in our minds, because he has the fluency in the theory.

#Expert in Postolonialism...

Prof. Ranganathan has deep understanding and knowledge about this theory, first of all he told us the background of the theory, because it is necessary to understand the context. In the very first chapter 'The Black skin White mask', he gives the information about the writer also. One significant sentence was, "our visualisation of nation is not fixed, it changes time by time." We have understood very well the concept of language, the difference between Shakespeare's 'The Tempest' and Aime Cesaire's 'A Tempest', the concept of Orientalism, and many other different concepts. In a way he has a mastery in this field.

#Eloquence...

Prof. Ranganathan was expressed his thoughts very frankly, because he has a fluency in language. He has positive attitude to teach the students, and he was also a techno-frendly teachers.

He showed us the different presentations of orientalism in movie, which was very helpful to understand. He gave the idea of learning different languages like Russian, Japanese, Chinese, because nowadays it is more demanding languages in the market

So, the lectures are very fruitful and enthusiastic and we are very glad to receive an expert academic sessions.

Thank you...:)

The story revolves around Uncle Podger, who tries to hangs a picture on wall, from that activity he makes readers laugh.
