Several questions surrounding the subject of history will be thoroughly discussed at the Department of History, Savitribai Phule Pune University.
A history professor, Antoon de Baets from the University of Groningen, Netherlands, will be answering questions such as, can freedom of expression be applied to history writing, or is it too sacrosanct to be touched? Or, is there such a thing as irresponsible history?
Professor Baets, who is a globally-acclaimed historian, will be conducting his maiden certificate course under the aegis of Ministry of Human Resource Development's Global Initiative of Academic Networks (GIAN), at the Department of History, Savitribai Phule Pune University.
GAIN aims to draw in international talents and subject experts in India to encourage their engagement in higher education in India. The certificate course will be held on June 5 till June 10. There are 60 seats available for the course.
The course is designed for advanced undergraduates or graduate/postgraduate researchers. However, having said that, anyone with an interest in the subject can apply, said Shraddha Kumbhojkar, course co-ordinator, as reported.
