This Book May Also Provide A Useful Insight To The Foreign Readers As The Essays Are Written By The Indian Experts Who Understand And Live Within The Socio-Cultural Context Of India.

A Short History of English Literature

Professor Of English Literature Of King S College, London Observes Thus: This Is An Extremely Bold And Far-Reaching Attempt At A Comprehensive Theory Of Poetry. There Is Evidence Everywhere Of Extensive Learning And Of Acute And Sensitive Literary Mind. The Author Draws With Equal Ease On Indian Poetics And On English And European Literature, Aesthetics And Philosophy. The Candidate Stands Very Much In The Tradition Of That Manner Of Thinking Which May Be Associated With I.A. Richards, Of Whom He Is No Unworthy Follower.This Is Not An Easy Thesis On Which To Pass Judgment. I Am Impressed And Convinced By The Distinction Of Mind And The Continuity Of Thought. I Believe, It Is Worthy Of The Highest Doctoral Degree, If That Is Now D.Litt. Should Be Described And Therefore Of Publication.
