Miscellaneous 2: Books & Authors Video Lecture | General Knowledge (GK) for LIC AAO Exam (English) - Banking Exams

hello friends this isn't a bleep thing
from hit bullseye dot-com in a today's
video lecture will be discussing about
how to prepare questions related to
books and authors now in that firstly
we'll be discussing about the strategy
for clutch questions then we'll also
look into the factual parts that is some
certain classical books and their
particular authors certain foreign books
and also certain contemporary books or
important books which have especially
won some prizes in the international
forum so starting with the strategy of
preparing such questions firstly it will
be very important for us to look into
current affairs for preparing such
questions and in that current affairs we
have to look into questions which are
uncertain of words such as book by
Marlon Jane's a brief history of seven
killings which had won the Man Booker
Prize for 2015 is important another
example is Saturn Island that by Tom
McCarthy so that is also important so
sudden other books for example which
have won the Pulitzer Prize which has
won the Washington State Awards and
other books are very very important from
our examination point of view apart from
the books related to current affairs
we also have to be ready with books
which have been in certain kind of
controversy in the recent times
for example author the sliminess Reem
now this is a Bangladeshi author who has
been in news because of her critical
writings so her writings have become
very important as today also Salman
Rushdie was also written certain texts
which have not been taken in good humor
by certain section of the population his
book Midnight's Children and Satanic
Verses have been again very questionable
so certain or such authors and their
books are again very important we should
also give focus on certain all-time
favorites these are not exactly the
classical books that we have in India
but these are books which are evergreen
for example books by the father of the
nation Gandhiji
that of India of my dear
and another book Subterra the book by
Jalal Nehru the first Prime Minister of
the country such as discovery of India
and independence book by abul kalam azad
and other freedom fighters or other
important personalities that we have in
the country so certain books in text
written by these personalities also
become important from our examination
point of view another area is that of
classical's now we have to keep in mind
certain classical texts in the country
we also know that India is the religious
capital of the world so because of that
we have high amount of or high number of
books in the country regarding
intellectualism book such as Mahabharata
ramana
the particular epics and all these are
again very very important from the
examination point of view taking further
from the cue of classical books now we
have to look into certain important
books in the Classical category which we
should keep in mind most important of
these is the earth Shastra written by
Janaki this is a book regarding
adminstrator system or how a prince
should administer his country kapil
sutra by Bhadra bahu the story of Rama
depicted in vertical via by patty again
manu wrote the manu smriti this is again
regarding animal centre matters panini
wrote a still high so all these books
apart from we all know the Ramayana
written by Valmiki and Mahabharata
little but various all these classical's
are important from our point of view
these were the classical books written
by certain Indians or were important in
the Indian context we also have to look
into classical books in the foreign
sphere also in this there are books such
as those written by mr. feigns the
clouds
Aristotle wrote or aghanim Plato's
Republic and symposium
they were DC Tolstoy's war and peace
other authors such as by Stephen Hawkins
the brief history of time William
Shakespeare wrote a very popular
classical foreign book of midnight
summers nightly Immanuel Kant a very
very acclaimed or very highly acclaimed
writer he wrote a critique of Pure
Reason goon our middle
The Economist he wrote the American
dilemma and the Haitian dream George
Bernard Shaw man Superman Pygmalion
these were important foreign books we
also have very important books such as
the communist manifesto written by Karl
Marx Rawlings JK Rowling's wrote Harry
Potter and the series so this is again
important from foreign point of view
Napoleon Hill he wrote the Think and
Grow Rich so these are certain books
which in the foreign domain have become
very important for us to be aware of we
also have the alchemist we also have the
black beauty written by Anna Sewell the
Mark of Zorro written by Johnston
McCulley wash it down by Richard Adams
so certain or such books which we need
to be aware of for our purpose apart
from these foreign books we also have to
be aware of certain contemporary books
now these books are those which have
been in news or which have won awards in
the foreign sphere or in India as well
so it is important for us to be aware of
these books Lorenson wrote the illegal
it won the Canada Reads award and Ray
Alexei he wrote the 15 dogs this was the
winner of Scotiabank award as well as
the Rogers award
Leslie John wrote night hush this was
awarded with the r5 ta of odds
rather it was one of the nominees of our
ITA Awards
now Stalin's daughter was written by
Rosemary Sullivan now desert one the RPC
tailors price and again very important
for us to be aware of we've read about
Marlon James brief history of seven
killings which had won the Man Booker
Prize for 2015 so it is one of the most
important books that we have discussed
about today Anthony Doerr
wrote the all life we cannot see this
advantage Pulitzer Prize for fiction
Bruce Albert wrote the our of lead
disadvantaged intense state price so
these are important books we also have
nisith hasari Midnight's fury the deadly
legacy of India's partition which tells
us about the scenario in 1947 how India
was partitioned and the situation or the
situation of the society at that point
in time sanjeev saroja's the era of
Runway is also important
now the narrow road to need deep north
was written by Richard Flanagan a little
life which had been which was one of the
nominees for Man Booker Prize is also
important which was written by Anna
yanagihara so all these books are very
important for us to be aware of and we
can prepare our question regarding books
and authors by looking into certain
sections as we have discussed today for
example and I would again repeat the
foreign section the classical and the
contemporary so this is how we can
prepare questions regarding to books and
authors in our examination thank you
very much
