  Amardeep Singh: Professors under Siege: Githa Hariharan and A.S. Byatt   (Site not responding. Last check: )
As both Hariharan and Byatt have taught at universities on and off, they include a fair bit of direct discussion of the issues; both novels have "lectures" alongside straightfoward narration.
In case you were worried about where this is going, Hariharan handles this part of the story with psychological realism and grace; she keeps the potential for sexual scandal from hijacking a story that is at essence about the professor, Shiv Murthy.
Hariharan's take on Basava leans postmodernist: the final truth about this 12th century figure's relationship to religion will never be definitively known, but the lack of closure can actually be a lesson for the always polarized, ideologically volatile contemporary moment.
