ONE-DAY MATCH ON LITERATURE from an examination perspective.!

Dear Students of English Literature,

You've got the last special class of this semester - coming up this Saturday, October 06, 2007, at Selaiyur Hall Indoor Stage premises, (forenoon and afternoon inclusive) and you are invited for these two thought-provoking lectures, stimulating your intellect, and sharpening your wits, on two of the major genres in Literature - POETRY and the NOVEL.

The lecture on Poetry will be given by a very great scholar (more a friend than a scholar) from a prestigious College, and he has confirmed his participation today. In addition, we shall also have with us Dr.Nirmal Selvamony, our own great scholar, who has consented to be with us and interact with you, after the lecture. Make the best use of it.

The second lecture on NOVEL will be given by another great scholar, who has literally cast a literary spell on you last week. After the lecture, it's hoped that you will become a scholar in your own right, and your perspective of these two genres, it is sincerely hoped, will undergo a greater transformation, thus giving you enormous confidence and resolve to face your exams with double the amount of enthusiasm.

PS: I wish to emphasise that attendance will not be taken and participation is not mandatory. But participants make sure that you are present at least five minutes before the start of the class.Time: 9:30 am SHARP till 12.30 pm (approx). Please bring pen and a good note book for taking down unforgettable notes and quotes.

While Games and VLRefreshment will form part of the agenda, (both forenoon and afternoon), students are expected to make their own arrangements for lunch alone.
