The Bachelor of Arts in Literature program acquaints students with various literary exemplars created in the specific historical junctures, in particular spatial locations using multicultural and interdisciplinary lenses; the creative process of imaginative and intellectual labor, the literary trends and social and cultural movements which impress upon the writer’s consciousness and work; the critical approaches and theoretical apparatuses, which interrogate the nature and influences of literature, as well as the functions and locations of different agencies of production, dissemination, and consumption of miscellaneous texts in the wide web of Literary and Cultural Studies.
