Learning Experience In Dr. Jay Maheta’s lecture on Poe’s Short stories.

18 Sept to 22 Sept, Department of English has organized Guest lecture on Poe’s short stories, which is tough by Dr. Jay Maheta. Dr. Jay Maheta is a formal student of Department. Nowadays he is lecturer of R.C. Technical College Ahmadabad. I like his teaching skill. My experience of learning from him amazing, these day he deals with the Poe’s short- stories which is very mystery and macabre work. His teaching style is really different from others because of he tough us with Poem, Sigmund Freud's theories. He also gave pre-reading task about the Death, which is Poe’s stories main them ‘Wish to Death’. His style of beginning  of class is an amazing it catches the attention of everyone in class,in these four day he talk about Short stories, How to write poem etc.

1)   The Tell-tale Heart
2)   The Black Cat
3)   The Fall of the house of Usher
4)   The Cask of Amontillado
5)   The Purloined Letter
6)   The Gold Bug



As we know that Edgar Allan Poe is the master of Macabre. He is famous for horror, fear, bloodshed, lie, and various psychological abnormalities. He gave a new concept to see the world. His most of the work are based on the Suspense  and create a fearful atmosphere. Poe’s short stories is of course create the suspense and create a atmosphere of Fear but when Sir has tough us that time he also create a fearful atmosphere like this incident happen in font of us.

The Last day of the session, sir has taken a lecture on Poet, and poem, (Musairo) sir is given fruitful suggestion to up coming poet and writer and he also recited two or three poem, which are written by him.

Thank you so much Barad sir and Maheta sir……
