Dalit Writings: Emerging Perspectives provides in twenty-four essays and an Introduction, a critical exploration of the Dalit literary works, the new themes, new voices and perspectives that have emerged therein by the first quarter of the twenty-first century. The different essays trace how the historical, political and social developments that have taken place in India within the last century have made deep impact on the different Dalit groups as well as in the reconstruction of the entire country. Dalit writings, from the Dalits and non-Dalits, from early thinkers like Jotirao Phule and B.R. Ambedkar to the contemporary, such as Kancha Ilaiah, poets like Kalyani Thakur reflect the slow and subtle changes in the identity formation of individuals and groups, their economic and socio-cultural expressions. For ages, the caste-dominated Indian society practiced forms of inequalities and injustice that affected Dalit consciousness and its modes of self-expression. Social reform movements created a growing awareness of their rights and various protest movements spread across the country gave rise to increased literary creativity. The volume here studies closely the Dalit questioning of the nation's claims to provide an egalitarian, democratic society and texts that remind the Indian society its promise to provide equal opportunity to all. In their critical and analytical essays Jasbir Jain, Raj Kumar, Nibir Ghosh, Usha Bande, Jaydeep Sarangi and others examine the theoretical and aesthetic aspects of the literature which has used a wide variety of forms and genre, written in many different Indian languages. With deep roots in acute sense of protest, rebellion and pain, the literature has grown in its variety and output. Recognized on international forums, a review of the Dalit Literatu.

Contemporary British Fiction History and the Present provides critical insights into fiction's interventions in the remaking of British culture in the period of rapid and radical political economic and cultural changes after the 1960s. These transformations have juxtaposed a sense of belonging and increasing alienation in a society where the predominant white colour is merging into different shades of humanity within the reality of mass scale immigration. The book contains critical readings of some of the leading British novelists. Changed political atmosphere in the post empire and post war era and newly emergent social plurality have as the editors argue in the introduction foregrounded the awareness of postcolonial anxieties nostalgia and the multicultural nature of the English society. The essays focus on texts that have already become canonical in modern literature. It is hoped that these new readings will open up new discussion dialogue and further interpretations. 270 pp.
