Lecture by visiting Professor

Upcoming event:
on 18 Sept 2010, at 4 pm
Venue: UT Guest House, Sector 6, Chandigarh.

Professor Dr. Dieter Riemenschneider, retired Professor of English
from the Institute of English and American Studies at
Goethe-University Frankfurt, who has also taught German at Panjab
University Chandigarh from 1963-64, will speak on Raja Rao.
He would like to present a new approach to Raja Rao, the Indian
English writer’s work, by analyzing his perception(s) of landscape
and/or nature in his early novels and by relating his reading to the
evolutionary psychological proposal of understanding the aesthetic
experience of landscape as grounded in man’s evolutionary evolved
adaptations during his search for habitat.
