After returning from a Fulbright-Hays Seminar, Ms. Marilyn Lee-Mauger
wanted us--her students-- to experience India as she had. Since
she could not quickly organize a school trip, she decided instead to
utilize her knowledge of India and the various books she acquired there
by assigning us research papers that we could juxtapose with our reading
of E.M. Forster's novel, A Passage to India.
We delved into our various topics with
vigor, using books from India, the internet, information from Fulbright
scholars via e-mail, and Forster's novel.
We are now on line, and our ideas and
research are now available to the student body--and the world. All
fifteen of us hope you enjoy our essays, which reveal an intricate
portrait of Forster's novel and India itself. Thank you for coming along
with us on our respective "passages to India."
