This book is our academic endeavour in contributing to the ever-growing corpus of diaspora criticism. Scholars from India and abroad have profusely contributed to this academic anthology and their exegeses and explications are worthy to be appreciated for multiple reasons. They have critically evaluated the texts against the backdrop of literary theories as applied to the typology of literary taxonomy of many diasporic authors who overtly and covertly belong to the South Asian nations. This anthology deals with multiple theses on the issues of diasporic overtones, inter-ethnic relations, re/dislocations and merger of mental/ physical boundaries represented in the literary texts authored by the young and veteran writers of the South Asian origin. The volume offers explorations and unravellings that inscribe multifarious themes, issues and agenda concomitant with the South Asian diaspora critiqued by young, vibrant and enthusiastic authors who have earned their reputation in academic field at the global fronts. There is a need for more holistic understanding of the entire phenomenon to facilitate researchers and participants engaged in innumerable homilies related to diaspora and trans-nationalism. Hence, we hope that this volume will be a trustworthy tool to comprehend the dynamics of emerging trends in the area though the continuous progress and flow in the ontological apparatus cannot be denied.

Do They Want to Turn Partition into a Gilbert and Sullivan Opera? : Performing Partition as Uncanny Farce/Anindya Raychaudhuri. This volume contains seventeen path-breaking essays by Indian, European, Indo-Scottish, and Indo-American scholars. It seeks to affirm heterogeneity and difference, celebrating multi-dimensional modes of looking at South Asian diasporic cinema and theatre in the new millennium. The essays in the anthology engage in critical conversations around diverse themes from home and homeland in Afghan Cinema, to the Partition of India. This co-mingling of multiple voices articulates the new, topical and sometimes radical dimensions of contemporary South Asian film and drama. In essence, the credo of this compendium is to breach extant disciplinary boundaries and establish a stimulating and thought-provoking rapport with its readers. With a polyvocality stemming from its panoply of eminent international contributors, this volume acts as a bridge, dissolving borders and addressing often-specious cultural pre-conceptions. It forges a cultural studies causeway across the largely reductionist duality of South Asian diasporic and domiciled visual arts. It is expected that this anthology, arguably the first of its kind, will be useful to both research students and academicians around the world. (jacket).

The articles seek to capture the diverse pictures gathered by women writers whose unique vision and understanding of international migration and life in foreign lands adds to the existing literature on the subject.

They divulge their trauma of alienation, identity crises and gender discrimination and explore vistas that are revelatory. (jacket).

Hardcover. Zustand: New. It may read cliché but Gandhi made immeasurable contributions to various academic disciplines, and his munificent contributions are deeply integrated into humanistic thoughts and actions to advocate that life must be based on 'love-force' or 'soul-force', evidently drawn through the quality of education. His discourses in humanities and social sciences are realistic, reasoned and effective. His political vision, his spiritual way of life, his futuristic views on nature, his ideas on environmental ethics and anthropocentrism have worked as stimuli for the country and society at large. The present volume entitled Gandhi Across Disciplines: New Millennial Responses, therefore, addresses a string of questions to explore and establish how Gandhi was undisputedly the guiding light for humanity through the previous century and how his life, values and missives remain pertinent in the contemporary times as well.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Essay from the year 2015 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Comparative Literature, , language: English, abstract: The present paper is a humble endeavour to map the familial and friendly association in literature with special reference to Ruskin Bond's select stories of 'No Man is an Island' (2013), a collection of short stories and poems. The lineage and genealogy of literature display that Bond is not the first author to write, to narrate and to exhibit the ebullient ambience of family and friendly folks. Chaucer's 'The Canterbury Tales' marvellously archive the collective enterprise of his twenty nine characters who friendly embark upon the journey from the Tabard Inn to Thomas Bicket's Church. The present paper underscores the chore of friendship in family and family in friendship which is the verisimilitude of individualistic as well as pluralistic lives.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Document from the year 2014 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, , language: English, abstract: Famous for multifarious writing, Salman Rushdie himself is a multifaceted personality, often emerges as an unpredictable figure with an unfathomable depth of creativity and criticism. Being an iconoclast, Rushdie never chooses the trodden road: he rather plunges headstrong into the unexplored territories of literature, not yet attempted.The present volume strives to find how Rushdie is germane in the twenty first century politics of globalization, literary schema, and cosmopolitanism. The book has been divided into two broad heads-the first section intrinsically deals with the most popular book of Rushdie, Midnight's Children while the second section contains Rushdie's latter fictions which have been researched and presented in the light of intertextuality, hybridity, diaspora and, of late, autobiography.The essays are written by Suhaina Bi, Sutanuka Ghosh Roy, Ram Bahawan Yadav, T. Sasikanth Reddy, Asis De, Vikrant Sehgal, Indah Lestari, Ajit Kumar, Hetal K. Kachhia, Hetal M. Doshi, Nesha Sabar/Pramod Kumar Das, Ramesh Tibile, Bini B. S., Manjeet Kumar Kashyap and Valiur Rahaman.
