Students also discussed the diverse themes that can be found in modern poetry namely Realism, Love, Pessimism, Nature, Religion & Mysticism etc. Students also gave descriptions of various modernist poets such as T.S. Eliot, Robert Frost, Robert Graves, Rupert Brooke, W.H. Auden & Basil Bunting etc.
Principal Prof Dr Atima Sharma Dwivedi averred that this type of activities helps in developing critical aptitude in the minds of the students wherein the students try to analyse the literature in critical way.
