About
The Conference
It
is evident that a work of art earlier was examined in vacuum. But the
work of art has now evolved to attain a new nomenclature “Text”.
Thanks to the various insights contributed by theorists across the
world, the idea of Text in the recent developments in the theory of
textuality from Barthes to Belsey has posed challenges to the way
literary and non-literary texts are studied. In the light of this
debate, the Conference proposes to examine the possibility of a
preeminent context around a text or a context that assumes its shape
circumstantially.
