dc.description.abstract	Teachers of literature read life in its sundry manifestations. Therefore teachers of literature know so much. They teach and eventually preach so much. The question is do students of literature receive that much? And arguably should they 'learn' that much'? Is literature not to be devoured by the readers themselves? In that case, do the literature classes really induce an interest in the readers to imbibe the myriad verbal shades painted by the master craftsmen? Can the teachers really wait for the learners to understand, leave alone enjoying, the prescribed piece of poetry or prose and respond by themselves? Will such an approach to learning literature cater to the demands of the exams? And if it cannot do so. is the very purpose of having literature at the degree level not getting demeaned amongst the rural lot if not everywhere?	en_US
