Integrative Humanities
About the Cluster

The inter-institutional research cluster entitled Integrative Humanities and its proposed activities are premised on the conviction that several fundamental questions in the humanities whose answers otherwise appear elusive can be, at least tentatively, answered through heterodox yet integrated reasoning that cuts across disciplines (philosophy, literature, psychology, and intellectual history being the most pertinent here). In the long run, through its engagement with meta-questions in the humanities, the cluster seeks to offer clarifications on the validity criteria of knowledge in the domain of studia humanitatis. Though substantially different from hard sciences in orientation and methodology, can the humanities ever hope to achieve a grasp over the world of human experience comparable to that which the former have over the natural/physical world?

INTRA-ASIAN LITERARY TRANSMISSIONS: RĀMĀYANA AND MAHĀBHĀRATA
About the Cluster

Literary and cultural links between India and Southeast Asia are submerged in the folds of time. There is a long history of literary and cultural transmissions between India and Southeast Asia through maritime and trade routes that brought almost the entire region under direct or indirect Indian influence. Literary and cultural influence of India is visible in Java, Indonesia, Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. The most important literary influences of India on Southeast Asia are Rāmāyana and Mahābhārata. Rama of the Indian epic Rāmāyana, is the source of many literary works and cultural formations in this region, in the same way there are Malay versions of the Mahābhārata, some of which probably entered Malay as abbreviated prose renditions of the Old Javanese Bhratayuddha. The earliest, Hikayat Perang Pandawa Jaya, ‘The tale of the war of the victorious Pandawa’, was composed sometime between the late 14th and early 16th century, and is mentioned in the Bustan al-salatin of Nuruddin al-Raniri composed in Aceh in 1638.

Technologies of Literary Pedagogy
About the Cluster

This research cluster comprises enquiries and explorations into the pedagogy and praxis of English literary studies in India. The thrust area is literary pedagogy - textual canons, critical traditions, and theoretical frameworks. The motivation for this research stems from the crisis of not just English studies but the humanities in general due to the dominance of STEM education. In the Indian context, this crisis has a different trajectory as English has a strong presence in tertiary education (at least in terms of enrolment), due mainly to the market demand for English. Literary studies, however, is plagued by issues of cultural relevance and relatability: debates on why it is taught, what is taught, and how it is to be taught are increasingly challenging in today’s technologized learning environment.

Romantic Modernities
About the Cluster

This cluster envisages an interdisciplinary, international and interculturally oriented investigationinto the salient features of Romanticism presupposing reenactments and remodellings of its diverse elements in (post)modern cultures and practices from the angles of Philosophy, Literature, Ecology and Pedagogy. It studies the streams that distinguish modernities and becomes perceptible in the Romantic movements. Such movements and trends in Europe are sought to be examined comparatively, to explore how Romanticisms emerged, developed, transformed and became revived in different literatures and forms of art and whether there are explicitly practical and also, philosophical versions of Romanticism in the debates that cover the time span attributed to Romanticism in Europe and India, and, also its impact in the later periods. For many contemporary students and researchers, this term is granted for a static phenomenon that only has links to a historical past. That past is the time of August W. Schlegel, Novalis, Friedrich Schlegel, Tieck und Eichendorff, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Chateaubriand etc. when the discussions laid the basis of the concept of Romanticism.
