This is the best initiative taken by MHRD and other organisations. I really really want to thank the professors of ePathshala for making prolific well detailed videos. Thank you for putting these efforts!
I couldn’t stop laughing at all the rapid fire questions he asked. I would have loved to see him as a teacher in my class. I can imagine roaring laughters in his classes too. ❤️👍 (laugh, because he eventually answers his speedy basic questions because it is taking us time to even comprehend it) speed is the need of the hour! 🙏👍
This was a brilliant lecture. I have listened to many attempts to make clear what always appeared to me as hopelessly murky. The Professor is to be congratulated on his ability to present very complicated material clearly and succinctly. I have always been suspicious of deconstruction now I know why. I feel more equipped to tackle Derrida directly and read him. James P. Breslin, Winslow, Maine,USA
Excellent class, thank you for sharing your knowledge. However, seeing that you find marxism important for understanding culture and society, I'd like to see how you manage to make coherent the appropriation of both marxism and pststructuralism.
I wish u could launch a summer course for those who are working.. .As I became a TGT teacher and after doing B.Ed. post masters, I was drifted farther and farther from advanced literary criticism and cultural criticism....
"The link between the word and the concept is arbitrary. The word 'cat' or 'bat' does not in any way capture the animal or spirit of it...." Wow !!! How absurd !! George Orwell must be turning in his grave.
thanku, . u dont mention that the term Mr ect are maritime terms, as captain, admiral = maritime terms in law! so Mr relates to the law of the merchant on the high sea. . blacks law dictionary, Not the oxford dictionary. how else could you talk ur university double speak??/
Ooo mm ggg ..u are the same professor Nayar I'm reading the book cultural studies by P.K Nayar......first time I get the well explained lecture on RU-vid.... thank you such sir.....after watching the whole lecture I come to know that u are the same professor Nayar... great lecture sir....
"Textual unconscious is at the back of our minds". "Language precedes existence". We hv no access to true kdg. All knowledge is already, always 'mediated'. Meaning has already been 'constructed'. Participating in a discourse creates 'identity'. Outside the 'discourse' of university or classroom, there is no teacher or student.
Very valuable lecture 🙏 Some thoughts: Post-Structuralism: Who I am is based on who I am not (all those persons different from me) What if I see it as Who I am is based on the totality of every identity that I am ?
The claim that the meaning not rest in the world seems also have a ' meaning '. - if no meaning rest in the word, then can not either the poststructuralist claim have a meaning, since it is just as much baloney, and nonsens as all other words which dosen't have no meaning which not rest in the world. - so how is the words connected to the world at all? They aren't. What the words means then only rest on (say the poststructuralist) our incidentally intepretations of the words, (because they not, incidentally, is the same) which incidentally happens in our brain, - if so, we can then as well be just a ' brain in a vat, ' which is provided with electrical impulses from a computer, identical to those the brain normally receives..
