Aniket Jaaware

Aniket Jaaware was one of the foremost intellectuals in the country and a much-loved teacher of English Literature. His teaching interests were broad ranging. Former students in Pune University still discuss his legendary classes on Hamlet and Paradise Lost. At SNU, he moved effortlessly between courses on poetry, science fiction and fantasy literature. The novels of J. R. R. Tolkien remained a life long interest and he’d pasted what he claimed was a fragment of the Elvish script on his office door!
