The Role of Rhetorical Devices in Hindi Literature: A Path to Enhanced Critical Thinking in Students

The study of Hindi literature, particularly the works of renowned authors like Munshi Premchand, is vital for cultivating a deep understanding of language, culture, and ethics among students. As India embraces an increasingly digital and globalized education system, the importance of effective communication and literary appreciation has become more prominent. This paper explores how the use of rhetorical devices in Hindi literature can significantly impact student thought processes, emphasizing the enduring relevance of the Bhagavad Gita and the Rig Veda teachings. Additionally, it suggests a pedagogical framework for integrating these elements into the curriculum, particularly for classes 8 to 10 in Hindi medium schools.
