Über die Autorinnen und Autoren
Rukmini Bhaya Nair is Professor of Linguistics and English Emerita at the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, India. She received her Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge, UK, and has taught at universities ranging from Singapore to Stanford. Awarded an honorary doctorate by Antwerp University for her contributions to narrative theory, Nair has authored 9 books and over 100 articles. Her books include Narrative Gravity (2002) and Poetry in a Time of Terror (2009). One of India's leading poets, The Oxford Companion to Modern Poetry writes that: "her work is widely admired for its postmodern approach to lyrical meaning and feminine identity". Nair says she does research in linguistics for the same reason that she writes poetry - to discover the limits and possibilities of language.

Keywords for India: A Conceptual Lexicon for the 21st Century

Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Soft cover. Zustand: New. Summary:"What terms are currently up for debate in Indian society? How have their meanings changed over time? This book highlights key words for modern India in everyday usage as well as in scholarly context s . Encompassing over 250 key words across a wide range of topics, including aesthetics and ceremony, gender, technology and economics, past memories and future imaginaries, these entries introduce some of the basic concepts that inform the 'cultural unconscious' of the Indian subcontinent in order to translate them into critical tools for literary, political, cultural and cognitive studies. Inspired by Raymond Williams' pioneering exploration of English culture and society through the study of keywords, Keywords for India brings together more than 200 leading sub-continental scholars to form a polyphonic collective. Their sustained engagement with an incredibly diverse set of words enables a fearless interrogation of the panoply, the multitude, the shape-shifter that is 'India'. Through its close investigation and unpacking of words, this book investigates the various intellectual possibilities on offer within the Indian subcontinent at the beginning of a fraught new millennium desperately in need of fresh vocabularies. In this sense, Keywords for India presents the world with many emancipatory memes from India."-- Provided by publisher. Artikel-Nr. BGIND162
