Indian Research In English Studies Has A Long And Rich Tradition But, Unfortunately, It Has Failed To Make Any Notable Impact On The Academic World. This Is Largely Due To The Fact That Most Of The Indian Doctoral Dissertations In English Studies Lie Buried In University Libraries And Are Inaccessible To Aspiring Researchers. No Attempt Has Been Made So Far To Establish Any Link Or Co-Ordination Between Research Activities Of Different Universities/Institutes. This Has Resulted In A Total Neglect Of Earlier Research And Unnecessary Duplication.The Present Volume Is Designed To End This Unhappy Situation By Providing A Complete And Authentic Account Of Research Carried Out In Indian Universities Not Only In British, American, Commonwealth And Indian English Literature But Also In Comparative Studies, Translation Studies, Language, Linguistics And Elt. Entries On The Above Mentioned Are Arranged Subject-Wise In Chronological Sequence And Are Followed By A Separate Section On Individual Authors In Alphabetical Order. Thus It Provides A Consolidated View Of Indian Research In English And Serves As An Invaluable Reference Manual. It Is A Step Towards Orientation And Systematisation Of Indian Research In English Studies And Will Help To Make Research A Well-Informed, Well-Planned And Meaningful Exercise.

Joyce Cary (1888-1957) Is A Forerunner Of Post-Colonial Thinking, Yet Remains A Critically Marginalised Political Writer In British Literature.This Book Focuses On Cary'S Representation Of The Complexity In Cultural Politics. Using Frantz Fanon'S Exposé Of The Mechanics Of Colonialism As A Tool, It Seeks To Establish Cary'S Credibility As A Political Writer.The Book Also Reiterates The Necessity For Rehistoricizing Cary'S Political Position By Examining His Novels Set In Africa, Ireland As Well As In England, Highlighting His Subtle Understanding Of The Dialectics Of Power And British Liberalism. The Expertise, With Which He Has Translated The Liberal Dilemma Into The Novel Form Cast In A Dialogic Manner, Is Also Of Equal Interest In The Post-Modern Context. What Distinguishes This Work From Many Others That Apply Theoretical Positions Mechanically Is The Disciplined Manner In Which Theoretical Premises Are Tested And Measured Against Cary'S Own Political And Social Attitudes.

Coleridge Was One Of The Few Harbingers Of Romanticism In England, And The Enunciator Of Psychological Criticism. One Will Certainly Miss English Romanticism Of About 150 Years, If He Does Not Interest Himself In Coleridge. One Of The Most Loving And Suffering Souls Of English Literature, Coleridge Was Not Only A Great Poet Of The Supernatural, But Also A Great Critic And Prosodist.In This Book, The Objective Of The Author Has Been To Present Coleridge In His Essentials (As The Content Of The Book May Show), Against The Back-Drop Of English Romanticism, In Plain Terms And Without Any Presumptions. Seventeen Select Poems Of The Poet Have Been Discussed, To Some Extent Threadbare, And The Texts Of Those Poems Have Been Given For Facility.
