Impending Inquisitions in Humanities and Sciences
In an era of increasing specialization, the need for cross-disciplinary dialogue demands an integrated approach that transcends the artificial boundaries between disciplines. "Impending Inquisitions in Humanities and Sciences" presents a groundbreaking tapestry of cutting-edge research across the spectrum of humanities and sciences. This volume presents a meticulously curated selection of research papers presented at the conference, a forum where scholars from diverse fields – English, Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry – converged to engage in rigorous dialogue and push the boundaries of knowledge. From the nuanced interpretations of literary texts to the elegant formulations of mathematical models, from the awe-inspiring revelations of physics to the meticulous experiments of chemistry, each contribution challenges assumptions and provokes fresh perspectives. This collection serves as a valuable resource for scholars, students, and academic fraternity with an insatiable curiosity about the world around us.
