The conference aims to promote English Language and literary studies in this era
of globalization. English language is the language of communication for a large

English language as a means of communication has also lead to the production of
various literatures in English language. The English literary tradition, translations
of world literatures into English and world wide acceptance of English language
has enriched the English language and literary studies to a large extent. There is a
need to ponder over various aspects of the English language and literary studies.
