Dear
students
Welcome
Please
find here lecture and study materials for BA, Programme, Skill Enhancement
Coerce (03), Society Through the Visuals. Under Choice Based Credit System (CBCS), University of Delhi.
I
taught this course during Odd Semester (July to November) 2019 to Delhi
University Students. The lecture was prepared, delivered and given to the
students in both Hindi and English Languages to then-current students. Many
students were coming from the Hindi Background so I prepared the entire lecture
in both languages. The philosophy behind this was very simple, that no one
should be deprived of knowledge because of the language barrier/s. There is no
correlation between knowledge and language. Language is the only means of
acquiring knowledge.
कृपया दें कि यह अंग्रेजी लेख का हिन्दी अनुवाद या विश्लेषण नहीं है, बल्कि अंग्रेजी लेख के आधार पर हिन्दी में लेक्चर है. जिन्हें अंग्रेजी भाषा को समझने में दिक्कत है, उनके लिए हिन्दी में दिए गए लेक्चर पढ़ना काफी है.
किसी भी लेक्चर में हर पहलू और तथ्य को समाहित नहीं कीया जा सकता है, इसलिए अगर किसी को प्रश्न पूछना हो तो वे बे झिझक कमेन्ट सेक्शन में कमेन्ट करके पूछ सकतें हैं.
हर किसी का स्वागत है.

ReplyDeleteWhat is visual anthropology? Explain with suitable examples. How do I write an answer to this in my exam? Our teacher barely taught us anything and it's really difficult to understand the reader without any guidance.
