Hello Readers this blog about three day's session on ELT by professor Atanu
Bhattacharya. He from central University Gandhinagar. From 25th to 28th Atannu sir
came to our department for ELT- 2 [ English language teaching- 2] . It is very
enjoyable and importance for me.
First day Session : sir briefly talk about History of English language teaching. Sir
starts with Renaissance with briefly detailing of it to 19th & 20th century.How the
language played an important role in literature sir said and explain with many
examples. the language played an important role in literature sir said and explain with
many examples.And said language can not be learning to join any spoken classes
because it is practical process of learning and learning is not set dialogue because
conversation always change it depends on dialogue. Also phonetic is also important
for language teaching for example- how to pronounce ship and sheep in different
ways .Sir mentioned the Methods like: 1) Natural Method/ Direct Method ,
2)Grammar Translation Method, 3) Audio-lingual method ,IPA International phonetic
Alphabet- you can't learn language by learning rules,you learn language by using the
language. IPA sets the rules of English language, here translation should be used only
as support.

number formation in the sentence while British language has article like a, an and
the.sir takes us to the novel and poetry with language and literature. Sir teach with
practical exercise. Language has skill to develop criticism,not only for communication
but the thought process.Teaching poetry How to teaching poetry ? With help of image
and developed vocabulary drill of students and suggest to students define register

2.Waiting for the barbarian
1. About : Author
Other blog
Prepared By Nasim Gaha Page 8
He was born on 9 February 1940.John Maxwell Coetzee is a South African. He was novelists e,
linguist, translator and recipient of the 2003 Nobel Prize in Literature.Coetzee's firstn novel was
Dusklands (1974) and he has continued to produce novels at the rate of about one every three
years. He has also written autobiographical novels, such as Boyhood, Youth and Summertime,
short fiction, translations from Dutch and Afrikaans, and numerous essays and works of
criticism.
Plot- summary
The book openswithcolonel joll andhe comeswithinstructionsthatthe Barbariansare coming.There is
Magistrate who is leadingcharacterof the novel.The novelwrittenbetweenIrishmovementanditisa
postcolonial text.Joll whowanttocontrol the Barbariansand he fightswithmagistrate manytime.The
magistrate doesnotbuythe theoryof a barbarianthreat.He has beenlivinginpeace inhisoutpostfor
mostof life,tradingwiththe nomadswhoJoll seesasthe enemy.The magistrateraise hisvoice and
helpstopoor people fromcoloneljoll .Atthe endhe had to payand givenpunishmentforhismistake.In
betweenhe hassexual relationswithunnamedblackgirl.The endingof
the novel is open. We can interpret it our own.
Characters
1] The magistrate:-If we talk about The magistrate then we can see he is good and kind by heart
and portrayed as a humble character. He goes against Empire and helps to tribal people yet he get
punishment for it.Moroever we have a question that why he helps these people? Why he goes
against Empire? Was there behind any selfish motive of him? Why he accepts a black girl. Was
there only temptation of sexual desire or anything else? In a way, it is a open ended novel so we
can put out many perspective.
2] Colonel joll:- So ,the Colonel joll is a officer of "Third Bureau" and The Empire. His character
drawn as very cruel and without heart.He want to control Barbarians and want some kind of
power for that he does many things , he torturers many people . Whether we have to judge this
character as a good or bas because maybe he is doing by his duty or he doing by his own motive
we can't say. So, he proved as a very strong and villian character.
3] A black girl:- A blind girl , whose father has been killed in front of her. She given space or
place in a room where she cured. If we do feministic reading then it is normal that in all case if
women is in trouble,there should be one hero who cures her and they have relation between them

. Is it here also? The sympathy which he get she he to pay for it in form of sexual relations or
what ? Was magistrate accept her by his heart.In real society this kind of magic never happened.
Central theme
Imperialism
One of the most prominent themes in waiting for the barbarians imperialism. In the novel we see
various dimensions of imperialist mentality and actions unveiled. The paranoia of the Empire
reflects a more general existential condition of one group intending to impose its culture and
political mandate on others. The creation of an enemy, or "other"—the nomad "barbarian"—
reflects broader perceptions of a threat that serve to justify imperialist violence. The Empire's
anxious need to constantly glorify itself sheds light on more universal narratives of imperialist
magnificence and righteousness that again serve as justification of a mandate of power.
Colonialism
Distinct from imperialism, the theme of colonialism as a physical, territorial project with far-
reaching implications plays out in Waiting for the Barbarians. The colonial process, as illustrated
in the novel, is more than just a cultural or ideological 'imperialist' project; it is a violent physical
one that plays out on the earth and on the bodies of the colonized. As it is represented in Waiting
for the Barbarians, the experience of colonization impacts the many lives. We see the damage
done to the tribal nomads, both in terms of the torture, trauma and violence inflicted on them as
well as on the intrusion upon their migrant lifestyle. We also see the impact of colonialism on the
earth, as the riverbanks burn, desertification sets in, the fisher people are uprooted and the fields
are flooded. Colonialism, as it is shown in Waiting for the Barbarians, entails profound violence
and disruption.
Male sexuality
One of the central themes in Waiting for the Barbarians is male sexuality. Along with being a
story of colonial power and imperialism, the novel is an extended examination of the magistrate's
sexuality and of the nature of male sexuality in general. In the case of the magistrate, sexuality is
a socialized condition, closely linked to self-perception. In the times when he has power, his
sexuality thrives. As his power wanes, so too does his libido. As existential questions begin to
haunt him, his desire is similarly troubled. When he goes out on a long trek, stepping out of his
society, he is the least inhibited. The barbarian girl's sexuality remains a mystery for the most
part. It is the (distinctly male) sexuality of the magistrate that the novel most closely examines.

This task given by Dr Dilip barad sir.
It is very interesting for me. I like to get knowledge by language lab. When I started to
learn with group. With enjoy.
 What is language lab.?

➤ A language lab is a dedicated space for foreign language learning where students
access audio-visual materials.
It is very helpful for me. I learn while grammar, vocabulary, phonetics, and four
skills. It is in the interesting. But language Lab very slowly and hard . And many
words new for me. And I learn phonetics skills with enjoy and careful.
Namo-e teb and language lab both are same but few different. Both are helpful for
me. because I improve my vocabulary and grammar and four skills by language Lab.
It is very important for me. I give some photos of language Lab and namo-e tab.
Both are same and interested for learn. And helpful. Both are I learn both very slowly

Advantage:
.Between laboratory session the teacher can scrutinize student's performances on tape,
at his lesuire and be in a position to advice student how to avoid persistent errors
before next session
It requires special personnel for its upkeep and maintenance it does not require
everybody rather it require those who will be educated in the field.
Immediate knowledge of results, it is observed that one method of arranging the tape
aims at achieving knowledge of result.
Disadvantages of Language Laboratory:
It requires special personnel for its upkeep and maintenance it does not require
everybody rather it require those who will be educated in the field.

Sairandhri byVinodjoshi
Structures:-
He publishedthispoemin2018.This metrical poemcomposedinprabandhaformwithsevencantos,49
chaptersand 1800 lines.ItisbasedonDraupadi,one of the characters of HinduepicMahabharata. Here
poettriedto explainDraupadi'sfeelingandthoughts.Asa part of languagesIcan find thatpoetused
figurative language,personification,meters,ChopaiandDohrain' Sairandhri '.Here poetusedShrigar
rasa also.MoreoverI addedthat ' language alwaysappliedandeachlanguage hasownvalluations'.
Normallycreationof poemisreflectionof poet'sthoughtsandreflectionof backgroundlanguage.So
here Vinodjoshi borninrural area so He handeddownhisrural wordsinpoem
Vinodjoshi wrote one prabandhkavya"sairandhri".The eventandpoembasicallytakesplace onIndia
but as itis writteninAustraliaItreflectsthe characterof Draupadi.The poemrecallsthe memoryof

So itwas a good poemwhichshowsanotherperspectiveof the Mabharat's scene.
22.Thinking activity on " The waste Land " poem.
The waste Land is a poembyT.S. Eliot,widelyregardedasone of the most alternatingnarrations,in
whichvignettesof several charactersaddressthose themesexperimentally.Itwaspublished in1922. It
was verycomplicatedpoemtoread.Eliothastake manyreferences,characters,languages,scenesand
images.Eliothasdone use of enjambment.
Poem'sstructure dividedintofive sections:-
1. The Burial of the Dead
2. A game of chess
3. The fire sermon
4. Death bywater
5. What the Thundersaid.
1) What are your viewsonthe followingimageafterreading'The Waste Land'?Do you thinkthatEliotis
as comparedto Nietzche'sviews?orHasEliotachieveduniversalityof thoughtbyrecallingmytho-
historical answertothe contemporarymalaise?
Other blog
Prepared By Nasim Gaha Page 47
Eliotstandsfor Regressive,backwardlookingasittriesto findanswersof contemporarymalaisein
Upanishads,BuddhismandChristianity.
On the otherside Nietzsche standsforprogressiveandforwardlooking,ingivingsolutiontothe
problemof contemporarycrisesinfaithandself.
In comparedto Nietzsche's thought,yesEliotisregressivebutitdoesn'tmeanthathe onlyrises
questiononhiscontemporarysociety,he alsotriestogive wayof solutionratherthanthe answers.
Cycle of time alwaysmovingandwhenHistorystartrepeatingone musthave tolookback and try to
learnthat whatare mistakesourancestordidand now whentime comestous how we will deal withit?
It iscertainand right that newquestions'sanswerwe couldn'tfindinUpanishads,Buddhismand
Christianity butthe wayof living,understandingtowardsanysituationone candevelop.
So we can conclude thatit isalso rightthat problemsof contemporarycrisis'solutionisin faithandself
but,the level of faithandunderstandingof self mustbe necessary.Itcomesfromreadingof myth-
historical andreligiousthought.Eliotachieved thatuniversality of thought.

Accordingto myopinionFree venttothe repressedprimitive instinctwillautomaticallyleadstowards

Eliothas powerful ideasratherthanSigmanfroed.AnotherthingisthatWe all are livesourliveswith
specificperspective,withdiscipline andwithmoral rituals.Althoughlife becamemore appropriate and
enjoyable.Thushere i don'tagree withideaof Freud.
3) Write about allusionstothe Indianthoughtsin'The Waste Land'. (Where,How andWhy are the
Indianthoughtsreferred?)
- Here I found some Indian thought in ' The Waste Land'; in part no ; 3 The fire sermon its title
which Eliot has taken it from Buddha's. It connected with Buddha. And then Then spoke the
thunder

DA
Datta means to give: not only charity but giving oneself for some novel cause
DA
Dayadhvam means sympathise – empathise yourself with the sorrows and suffering of others
DA
Damyata means Self Control, control over one’s
passions and desires
Datta. Dayadhvam. Damyata.
Shantih shantih shantih
So Eliot has taken reference from many languages and from many writer and culture. So it is a
mixture of all this thing. Here Eliot try to connected this all things and also try to deal with
universal idea of world.

continuity.
Literature islike ariver,waterof rivermakesit'sown small differentwaysandflawsindifferent

has some signsandsymbols,sometimesthe signsandsymbolsare same butmeaningsare different.As
everywriterhasit'sown reasontowrite,to putcertainsymbols,andto give certain
Message through symbols.Here the linesfrom"Waste Land"andAntonChekhov'sshortstory"Joke"
has some same symbolslike environment,goingdownonthe sled.In"Waste Land"it'sabout childhood

there isonlylustand name wasgivenof love.Sobothhas some similarities.Whichalsosignifiesoneness

2)o youagree:"The novel isboththe tribute andcritique of Mrs. Ramsay"?(Key:Take some cluesfrom
the paintingof Mrs Ramsaydrawnby LilyBriscoe andthe article byAndre Violaand GlennPedersen.

manthri; Bhojeshu mata, Shayaneshu rambha; Kshamayeshu dharithri, Roopeshu

Yes,I am agree that the novel isboththe tribute and critique of Mrs. Ramsay.VirginiaWoolf wasrebel
duringherage. Thenevenif she isputtinga domesticcharacterlike Mrs.Ramsaywe can saythat it isfor
criticizingthe stereotypesof womanandforthatshe isputtinga total opposite personalityLily.By
showingMrs.Ramsay as an ideawomanWoolf triestocriticize the waysocietysee the role of woman.
In thisnovel Mrs.Ramsay isa way throughwhichwhole familyconverse witheachotherbutwe alsocan
see that till she isalive norelationsof familywashealthybutafterherdeathall problemshave seemsto
resolve.Thiswayitiscritique of Mrs. Ramsay.
On the otherhand itis alsotribute toMrs. Ramsay,because afterheralsoshe has livedinthe memory
of everyone.Atthe endalsoshe isthe subjectof Lily’spaintingandwhenshe completesherpainting
and she got hervisionwhichisMrs. Ramsay.At the endwhole Ramsayfamilygoestothe lighthouse

tribute toMrs. Ramsay.

2)The tree is the onlyimportant‘thing’inthe setting.Whatisthe importance of tree inbothacts? Why
doesBeckettgrowa fewleavesinActII onthe barrentree - The tree has fouror five leaves - ?

7) How are the propslike hatand bootsusedinthe play?Whatis the symbolical significance of these
props?
Samuel Beckettusedmanysymbolsin thisplayinwhichHatand Boot are interestingsymbols.We can
say that hat representedthe intellectual,mentalabilityandthinkingandbootrepresentlowerand
physical appearance.
8) Do you thinkthatthe obedience of LuckyisextremelyirritatingandNauseatic?Evenwhenthe master

10) "The subjectof the playis notGodot but 'waiting'(Esslin,A searchforthe self).Doyouagree?How
can you justifyyouranswer?
Yes,I agree withthe Esslin'spointof view in'A search forthe self'thatthe subjectandthe maintheme
of the playis'waiting'not the Godot.We can see that inthe playnothinghappenexceptthe
meaninglesswaiting.there isnoone come and go, all the characters onlywaitingforsomeone butno
one come.So, we can say the heartof the playis waitingnotGodot.
11) Do youthinkplayslike thiscanbetterbe 'read' than'viewed'asit requiresalotof thinkingonthe
part of readers,whileviewing,the torrentof dialoguesdoesnotgive ample timeandspace to'think'?Or
isit that the audio- visualshelpinbetterunderstandingof the play?

14) VladimirandEstragontalksabout‘hanging’themselvesandcommitsuicide,buttheydonotdo so.
How doyou readthisideaof suicide inExistentialism?
Suicide inexistentialismwe findthatit'sa symbol Suicide inexistentialismwe findthatit'sasymbolically
representthe deathbyphilosophysuicide meansphilosophical suicideatthat momentpersonstopto
thinkingthatisthe suicide whichwe call philosophical suicide.
15) Can we doany political readingof the playif we see Europeannationsrepresentedbythe 'names'of
the characters (Vladimir- Russia;Estragon - France;Pozzo - Italyand Lucky - England)?What
interpretationcanbe inferredfromthe playwrittenjustafterWorldWar II?Whichcountry standsfor
'Godot'?
So far as Pozzoand Lucky[masterand slave] are concerned,we have torememberthatBeckettwasa
disciple of Joyce andthatJoyce hatedEngland.BeckettmeantPozzotobe England,and Lucky to be
Ireland."(BertLahrwho playedEstragoninBroadwayproduction).Doesthisreadingmake anysense?
Why? How?What?
Ans.Yes,we can interpretthe political readinginwhichVladimirstandforRussia,PozzostandforItaly,
Lucky standfor EnglandandEstragon stand forFrance.So, we can connectthisto the worldwar in
whichthese all countriesdestroyedbyGodotmeansGermanythatiswhyVladimiraskedtothe boythat

16) The more the thingschange,the more itremainssimilar.There seemstohave nochange inAct I and
Act II of the play.Eventhe conversationbetweenVladimirandthe Boysoundsalmostsimilar.Butthere
isone major change.In ActI, in replytoBoy;squestion,Vladimir says:
yes,there isachange inAct 1and Act 2. WheninAct 1 boycomesto themand askedVladimirthatwhatI
askedto Godotsir ? ThenVladimirrepliesthattell himthatyousaw us,andinAct 2 whenboyaskedthe
same questionandVladimirrepliesaquite different,thistimehe saysyoutell Godotthatyou saw me
not us.So,here comesself-perspective ,he thoughtthatif Godotcomesthenhe will save me and
Estragon wassleepingsohe wasn'tthoughtabouthim.AccordingtoVladimironlyhe deservedGod's
attentionorpresence.so,here we cansee self motiveof Vladimir.Itwasagreat change in bothact and it

Paradise Lost, Epic poemin blankverse,one of the late worksbyJohnMilton,originallyissuedin10
booksin1667 and, withbooks7 and 10 each splitintotwoparts , publishedin12 booksinthe second
editionof 1674.
Many scholarsconsiderParadise Losttobe one of the greatestpoemsinthe Englishlanguage .Ittells
the biblical storyof the fall fromgrace of Adam andEve inlanguage thatis a supreme achievementof
rhythmand sound. The 12 booksstructure ,the technique of beginninginmediasres,the invocationof
the muse,andthe use of the Epicquestionare all classicallyinspired.The subjectmatter,however,is
distinctlyChristian.
Summary:
WithRaphael’sdeparture forHeaven,the storynolongerconsistsof conversationsbetweenheavenly
beingsandhumankind.Miltonexplainsthathe mustnow turn to Adamand Eve’sactual act of
disobedience.The poemmustnowturntragic,and Miltonassertshisintentiontoshow thatthe fall of
humankindismore heroicthanthe talesof Virgil andHomer.He invokesUrania,the “Celestial
Patroness”(IX.21) andmuse of Christianinspiration,andasksforher to visithiminhissleepandinspire
hiswords,because he fearshe istoo oldand lacksthe creative powerstoaccomplishthe taskhimself.
He hopesnotto getcaught up inthe descriptionof unimportantitems,asVirgil andHomerdid,andto

    Other blog Prepared ByNasim Gaha Page 4 Hello Readers this blog about three day's session on ELT by professor Atanu Bhattacharya. He from central University Gandhinagar. From 25th to 28th Atannu sir came to our department for ELT- 2 [ English language teaching- 2] . It is very enjoyable and importance for me. First day Session : sir briefly talk about History of English language teaching. Sir starts with Renaissance with briefly detailing of it to 19th & 20th century.How the language played an important role in literature sir said and explain with many examples. the language played an important role in literature sir said and explain with many examples.And said language can not be learning to join any spoken classes because it is practical process of learning and learning is not set dialogue because conversation always change it depends on dialogue. Also phonetic is also important for language teaching for example- how to pronounce ship and sheep in different ways .Sir mentioned the Methods like: 1) Natural Method/ Direct Method , 2)Grammar Translation Method, 3) Audio-lingual method ,IPA International phonetic Alphabet- you can't learn language by learning rules,you learn language by using the language. IPA sets the rules of English language, here translation should be used only as support.

Sir teach with practical exercise. Language has skill to develop criticism,not only for communication but the thought process.Teaching poetry How to teaching poetry ? With help of image and developed vocabulary drill of students and suggest to students define register word and tone or attitude of writer.Considering Learner's learning styles : • Visual • Auditory • Kinaesthetic • Studial • Analytic • Dependent• Independent Representative ( common part of speech; assertion, conclusion) Directive ( Request, ordering and questioning) Communiqués (promising, offering) Expressive (thanking, apologizing, welcoming) Declaration (problems by specific person)

About : Author
  • 8.
    Other blog Prepared ByNasim Gaha Page 8 He was born on 9 February 1940.John Maxwell Coetzee is a South African. He was novelists e, linguist, translator and recipient of the 2003 Nobel Prize in Literature.Coetzee's firstn novel was Dusklands (1974) and he has continued to produce novels at the rate of about one every three years. He has also written autobiographical novels, such as Boyhood, Youth and Summertime, short fiction, translations from Dutch and Afrikaans, and numerous essays and works of criticism. Plot- summary The book openswithcolonel joll andhe comeswithinstructionsthatthe Barbariansare coming.There is Magistrate who is leadingcharacterof the novel.The novelwrittenbetweenIrishmovementanditisa postcolonial text.Joll whowanttocontrol the Barbariansand he fightswithmagistrate manytime.The magistrate doesnotbuythe theoryof a barbarianthreat.He has beenlivinginpeace inhisoutpostfor mostof life,tradingwiththe nomadswhoJoll seesasthe enemy.The magistrateraise hisvoice and helpstopoor people fromcoloneljoll .Atthe endhe had to payand givenpunishmentforhismistake.In betweenhe hassexual relationswithunnamedblackgirl.The endingof the novel is open. We can interpret it our own. Characters 1] The magistrate:-If we talk about The magistrate then we can see he is good and kind by heart and portrayed as a humble character. He goes against Empire and helps to tribal people yet he get punishment for it.Moroever we have a question that why he helps these people? Why he goes against Empire? Was there behind any selfish motive of him? Why he accepts a black girl. Was there only temptation of sexual desire or anything else? In a way, it is a open ended novel so we can put out many perspective. 2] Colonel joll:- So ,the Colonel joll is a officer of "Third Bureau" and The Empire. His character drawn as very cruel and without heart.He want to control Barbarians and want some kind of power for that he does many things , he torturers many people . Whether we have to judge this character as a good or bas because maybe he is doing by his duty or he doing by his own motive we can't say. So, he proved as a very strong and villian character. 3] A black girl:- A blind girl , whose father has been killed in front of her. She given space or place in a room where she cured. If we do feministic reading then it is normal that in all case if women is in trouble,there should be one hero who cures her and they have relation between them

    Other blog Prepared ByNasim Gaha Page 9 . Is it here also? The sympathy which he get she he to pay for it in form of sexual relations or what ? Was magistrate accept her by his heart.In real society this kind of magic never happened. Central theme Imperialism One of the most prominent themes in waiting for the barbarians imperialism. In the novel we see various dimensions of imperialist mentality and actions unveiled. The paranoia of the Empire reflects a more general existential condition of one group intending to impose its culture and political mandate on others. The creation of an enemy, or "other"—the nomad "barbarian"— reflects broader perceptions of a threat that serve to justify imperialist violence. The Empire's anxious need to constantly glorify itself sheds light on more universal narratives of imperialist magnificence and righteousness that again serve as justification of a mandate of power. Colonialism Distinct from imperialism, the theme of colonialism as a physical, territorial project with far- reaching implications plays out in Waiting for the Barbarians. The colonial process, as illustrated in the novel, is more than just a cultural or ideological 'imperialist' project; it is a violent physical one that plays out on the earth and on the bodies of the colonized. As it is represented in Waiting for the Barbarians, the experience of colonization impacts the many lives. We see the damage done to the tribal nomads, both in terms of the torture, trauma and violence inflicted on them as well as on the intrusion upon their migrant lifestyle. We also see the impact of colonialism on the earth, as the riverbanks burn, desertification sets in, the fisher people are uprooted and the fields are flooded. Colonialism, as it is shown in Waiting for the Barbarians, entails profound violence and disruption. Male sexuality One of the central themes in Waiting for the Barbarians is male sexuality. Along with being a story of colonial power and imperialism, the novel is an extended examination of the magistrate's sexuality and of the nature of male sexuality in general. In the case of the magistrate, sexuality is a socialized condition, closely linked to self-perception. In the times when he has power, his sexuality thrives. As his power wanes, so too does his libido. As existential questions begin to haunt him, his desire is similarly troubled. When he goes out on a long trek, stepping out of his society, he is the least inhibited. The barbarian girl's sexuality remains a mystery for the most part. It is the (distinctly male) sexuality of the magistrate that the novel most closely examines.
