Creative Writing and Translation Course

a) To improve and facilitate language learning skills, the written in particular, of

students from different disciplines, in an enjoyable and creative ambiance

b) To improve and facilitate spoken language skills and listening skills through oral

method, that is story telling sessions from both teacher and students

c) To encourage and improve the reading skills of students by motivating them to read

up short stories and tales prior to their engagement with the practical creative writing

exercise

d) To motivate students to continue with creative writing as a productive occupation for

their future by getting their selected pieces published in student magazines, journals,

and even as a collection published by the department / university

Unit I : The basic aims, objectives and methodology of creative writing and translation

session without reading and secondly, do a basic translation or brief summary of the

tales as a written exercise. Thirdly, students will select a theme / topic of their choice

story, an article, a memoir, a letter, an essay and so on.

ENG/3 /OE/21 (D) Deep Ecology and Debates on the New Ecological Order

Introduction: This course is not a science-intensive subject. The OE course is designed to give an informed critical discourse on ecology-human relationships. It is definitely related to, but of a slightly higher grade than the earlier environmental course done by the Semester-II students. The course contextualizes a re-conceptualized environmental awareness as primary in view of the major ecological crises that the scientific humanity faces because of its own mechanistic and reductionist view of nature as a major cause, and attempts to question the Enlightenment conceptions of progress in order that the humanocentric thought is restructured till a certain ecologically self-sustaining and sane order is effected. Deep ecology is not romanticism or ecologism; ts ecological perspectives deem humanity as a part of nature, hence it is rather a new ecological order nurtured by attitudinal shifts and human respect accorded to every living being in the environment. It has moral and political activism to recover the lost connections with the planet earth, which needs to survive for future generations. It believes in the creative capacities of men to renew their loving and livable relationships with nature. Nevertheless, debates concerning to a new ecological order are wide-ranging and controversies are on. Objectives: 1. To help students understand some of the ecologically related concepts current in the

domains of literature, philosophy and anthropology, sociology and ecology. 2. To let them know of the current debates in the above disciplines concerning

environmental value. 3. To make them aware of the need for a new, environmentally social order for a healthy

and sustainable life for all planetary beings including humans. UNIT-I :: Deep Ecology

ENG/3/OE/21(G)

From Literature to Film

This course looks at the differences between the mental image and the visual image produced

by a text through the process of adapting literary works into film, thereby offering alternative

interpretations and commentaries within the same narrative framework. It further explores the

power of the visual media in bringing, in some cases, “literary” texts to a wider audience,

thereby blurring the lines between what is traditionally considered “popular” and “ cultured”.

UNIT-I:

(i) Brief overview of the history of film adaptation of literary texts.

(ii) Critical study of film interpretations of literary texts taking into consideration the

cultural, technological, historical, intellectual factors that contribute to these

interpretations.

UNIT –II: A close study of any one(1) of the following screen adaptations(text + film):

1. Tess (Tess of the ‘Ubervilles)

2. The Time Machine

3. Carrie

4. Great Expectations

5. The Godfather

6. The Lord of the Rings Series

7. Breakfast at Tiffany’s

8. The Remains of the Day

9. Romeo and Juliet

10. Jane Wyre

3. Brief Introduction :

The Department of Information Technology, Mizoram University was established in the year 2007 and B.Tech. (IT) course was started from August 2007 with 7 students admitted in the first semester. The Department is running four (4) parallel semesters in a year. The primary focus is to impart quality education to the students with required practical inputs and industrial training under ―University-Industry‖ interaction. In addition to classroom teaching, the department has mind-developing programmes for students such as maintaining good interaction of students and teachers and active participation in debates, quiz and seminars. Every year the students are sent to reputed organizations for industrial training for skills enhancement and to widen their capacity.
