Overview

This book is about the author as guided and supported by his caring mother and as conjoined with his caressing wife. We are all products of our nature, nurture and culture, and we are environed by context and its participants. The locale of our praxis is as important as our cognition which creates the framework for our perception. What happens in one's life is his or her biography and what he or she ends up as cognising is his or her cognizography. Teachers, books, films, food and events all influence the way we perceive. Biography or Cognizography is relevant only if some generalizations can be drawn. That's what has been done here to highlight phenomena like Social Justice, Scientific Temperament, Cultural Finesse, and Spousal Bond.

Author Information

Dr. Vennelakanti Prakasam (born 1943) belongs to a village Telugurayapuram of PSR Nellore District of Andhra Pradesh, where the early seeds of his cognition were sown. Kullur and Nellore where he had his school and college studies played their role in nurturing his cognition. BA (Special) with English as the main subject and Telugu & History as additional subjects with excellent teachers strengthened his ideational equipment. His 1962-66 stay in Nagpur, first as a student of Nagpur University (MA in English) and then as a lecturer in English at Dr. Ambedkar College of Arts and Commerce on Deeksha Bhoomi had a wonderful metamorphotic effect on his cognition of society and history. He shifted to Hyderabad in 1966 and has stayed on there with some gaps: 1969-72 (University of York, UK), 1977-78 (UPSC, Delhi), 1978-90 (Punjabi University, Patiala), 1985 Feb-May (Fulbright Fellow, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, University of California, Berkeley), 2002-04 (EFLU campus, Lucknow). This rolling around founded his rambling cognizance. His D.Phil. from York (Linguistics, 1972), Ph.D. from NALSAR Law University (Law, 2013) and his Post-Doctoral work on Stylistics and Comparative Religious studies have made his cognizance a wide spectral rainbow.
