Bhawna Vij Arora
Educator
India
Bhawna teaches English Literature at Vivekananda Institute of Professional Studies, affiliated with GGSIP University, New Delhi. A scribbler in her mental world, she juggles between being a pragmatic academician and a passionate teacher. The poet in her largely looms in her head and her private world. She is also a published researcher and had been a Fulbright scholar at Yale University in the year 2015. She has made a documentary project under the aegis of the Digital Media Centre for the Arts (DMCA) at Yale University on the ‘Women of Hijab in the United States of America’. Several critical essays in national and international journals are to her credit. She has presented these papers at national and international conferences. Her area of research and interest include Cultural Studies, Ethnocentric Literature, Indian Women’s Poetry, Cinema of Resistance, and Documentary Studies. She feels vehemently against the ill mechanics of the oppressive regimes and the authoritarian governments today. Like many activists, intellectuals, and academicians she shuts herself up in silence and quietude. Right-wing regimes anger her and she cathartically writes to bring down the rants in the macrocosmic world of politics. Her research in the past had been on the destruction of Babri Masjid, and the critical analysis of the creative responses to it.
