The expert lectures on Indian Poetics, delivered by Vinod Joshi at MKBU’s Department of English, provided students with a comprehensive exploration of traditional literary theories and their relevance to modern literary analysis. The sessions delved into fundamental concepts like Rasa, Dhvani, Vakrokti, and Auchitya, offering a deeper understanding of the sophisticated analytical structures that underpin Indian literary criticism. Through thoughtful discussions and detailed examples, students were able to appreciate how these classical theories continue to influence contemporary literary critique and creative writing. This workshop not only enhanced their grasp of Indian poetics but also promoted critical engagement with current literary discourse. The Department of English expresses its sincere gratitude to Vinod Joshi for his insightful lectures and to Dilip Barad for his invaluable role in organizing this intellectually enriching academic event.
