General
The department maintains strong ties both to the department of Social Sciences and to the department of Arts. The Tongues sculpture in Azad Park is an example of the collaboration between the departments of Languages and Arts. The sculpture is a 20-metre tall wave form in bronze; both sides of the form are covered in letters from over 400 different languages, containing a message to be decoded. Although the sculpture was erected more than 20 years ago, only a fraction of its contents have been deciphered.
