  • Language and Literature
    1 Indian Languages and Literature Introduction Thousands of years ago, the people of the Harappan civilisation knew how to write. Unfortunately, their script has not yet been deciphered. Despite this setback, it is safe to state that the literary traditions of India go back to over 3,000 years ago. India is a huge land with a continuous history spanning several millennia. There is a staggering degree of variety and diversity in the languages and dialects spoken by Indians. This diversity is a result of the influx of languages and ideas from all over the continent, mostly through migration from Central, Eastern and Western Asia. There are differences and variations in the languages and dialects as a result of several factors – ethnicity, history, geography and others. There is a broad social integration among all the speakers of a certain language. In the beginning languages and dialects developed in the different regions of the country in relative isolation. In India, languages are often a mark of identity of a person and define regional boundaries. Cultural mixing among various races and communities led to the mixing of languages and dialects to a great extent, although they still maintain regional identity. In free India, the broad geographical distribution pattern of major language groups was used as one of the decisive factors for the formation of states. This gave a new political meaning to the geographical pattern of the linguistic distribution in the country. According to the 1961 census figures, the most comprehensive data on languages collected in India, there were 187 languages spoken by different sections of our society.

  • Wandering Writers in the Himalaya: Contesting Narratives and Renunciation in Modern Hindi Literature
    Cracow Indological Studies vol. XVII (2015) 10.12797/CIS.17.2015.17.04 Nicola Pozza [email protected] (University of Lausanne, Switzerland) Wandering Writers in the Himalaya: Contesting Narratives and Renunciation in Modern Hindi Literature Summary: The Himalayan setting—especially present-day Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand—has fascinated many a writer in India. Journeys, wanderings, and sojourns in the Himalaya by Hindi authors have resulted in many travelogues, as well as in some emblematic short stories of modern Hindi literature. If the environment of the Himalaya and its hill stations has inspired the plot of several fictional writ- ings, the description of the life and traditions of its inhabitants has not been the main focus of these stories. Rather, the Himalayan setting has primarily been used as a nar- rative device to explore and contest the relationship between the mountain world and the intrusive presence of the external world (primarily British colonialism, but also patriarchal Hindu society). Moreover, and despite the anti-conformist approach of the writers selected for this paper (Agyeya, Mohan Rakesh, Nirmal Verma and Krishna Sobti), what mainly emerges from an analysis of their stories is that the Himalayan setting, no matter the way it is described, remains first and foremost a lasting topos for renunciation and liberation. KEYWORDS: Himalaya, Hindi, fiction, wandering, colonialism, modernity, renunci- ation, Agyeya, Nirmal Verma, Mohan Rakesh, Krishna Sobti. Introduction: Himalaya at a glance The Himalaya has been a place of fascination for non-residents since time immemorial and has attracted travellers, monks and pilgrims and itinerant merchants from all over Asia and Europe.

  • Curriculum Vitae
    Curriculum Vitae Name : Dr. Raghuvir Chaudhari Date of Birth : 1938 Address (Residential): A-6, Purneshwar Flats, Gulbai Tekra, Ahmedabad-380 015 Tel. No. : 9327726371 Website : http://iet.ahduni.edu.in/people-details/faculty- list/sanjay_chaudhary He did his M.A. in ‘Hindi language and literature’ from Gujarat University in 1962 and later obtained his Ph.D. from the same University in 1979. He retired on 15th June, 1998, as a Professor and Head of the Department of Hindi, Post-graduate School of Languages, Gujarat University. Eight students have obtained PhD degree under his guidance. Raghuveer Chaudhari had worked for adult-education in his village and also constructed a small library and a theatre for his school. During vacations, he used to work with social workers. He was very active in 'Navanirrnan Andolan' - an anti-corruption movement - against the State Government of Gujarat. With the same concern he had opposed ‘The Emergency’ which suppressed the freedom of expression in 1975. He was born and brought up in a religious family of farmers. His acquaintance with leading and devoted Gandhian friends as well as his farming background nourished the deep sense of social responsibility in him. This is the reason why his concept of modernism is different from those of his contemporaries. Raghuveer's talent was nurtured by the prose writings of Govardhanram Tripathi, Kaka Kalelkar, Suresh Joshi, Niranjan Bhagat and Priyakant Maniyar. He owes his early training to his teacher and friend Bholabhai Patel, a well-known scholar and man-of- letters in Gujarati. Later Raghuveer developed an interest in Hindi and Sanskrit studies.

  • Umashankar Joshi (1911-1988) Is a Gujariti
    NATIONAL LITERATURE IN TRANSLATION Fragmented- Umashankar Joshi About the author: Umashankar joshi (1911-1988) is a Gujariti writer of prose fiction, poetry and drama, whose works display nationalist sentiments and social awareness as well as concern for the predicament of human life in society. His major works include Vasant Varsa, Gangotri and Pracina. Introduction : 'Fragmented' works with opposing ideas: of being fragmented and being whole, of love and hate, of memory and forgetfulness, of heat and coolness, and so on. The poet does not reach any definite conclusions, no solutions are provided for this state of affairs. Instead, the poem serves as a meditation on an individual's circumstances and in it can be read echoes of the fragmentary nature of the world itself. Summary :The poem has a circular structure: beginning and ending with the line 'I am fragmented'. The notion of being fragmented is one that is particular to the person as well as to the world of the poem. Throughout the poem, the fragmentation of the poet-persona is evoked through symbols, images and metaphors, each of which elaborates the idea and develops it further. For example, the first stanza has three images: of rhythm without metre; of a pattern upon a canvas and of breadcrumbs in a beggar's bowl. The image of the bread crumbs signifies that which is broken, redundant and of little use but which when added to that from several homes goes a little way towards assuaging someone's hunger. “I am fragmented-fallen apart- Like rhythm striving to throb in a poem without metre, Like a pattern trying to emerge upon man's life-canvas.

    International Journal of Innovative Research and Advanced Studies (IJIRAS) ISSN: 2394-4404 Volume 7 Issue 5, May 2020 A Study On The Path- Breaking Intellectual Impact Of The Marxist Cultural Movement (1940s) Of India DR. Sreyasi Ghosh Assistant Professor and HOD of History Dept., Hiralal Mazumdar Memorial College for Women, Dakshineshwar, Kolkata, India Abstract: In history of Bengal/India, the decade of 1940s was undoubtedly an era of both trauma and triumph. The Second World War, famine, communal riot and Partition/refuge e crisis occurred during this phase but in spite of colossal loss and bloodbath the Marxist Cultural Movement/Renaissance flourished and left its imprint on various spheres such as on literature, songs, dance movements, painting and movie -making world. The All India Centre Of The Progressive Writers” Association was established under leadership of Munshi Premchand in 1936. Eminent people like Mulkraj Anand, Sajjad Jahir, Muhammad Ashraf and Bhabani Bhattacharyya were gradually involved with that platform which achieved immense moral support from Rabindranath Tagore, Sarojini Naidu, Ramananda Chattopadhyay, and Saratchandra Chattopadhyay. Nareshchandra Sengupta became President when its branch for Bengal was founded on June 25, 1936. Actually the Anti-Fascist International Association Of Writers” For The Defence Of Culture, established in Paris (1935) through effort of Romain Rolland and Gorkey, made path for the Marxist cultural Movement of India. Indian Movement had important milestones in its history of development such as establishment of Youth Cutural Institute (1940), Organisation Of The Friends Of The Soviet Union (1941), The Anti-Fascist Writers” And Artists” Association (1942) and The Indian People”s Theatre Association (I.P.T.A- 1943) etc.

COPYRIGHT FIMT 2020 Page 1 BA ENGLISH (HON) SEM IV PAPER CODE 202 LITERARY CRITICISM Q1. What are Aristotle's views on mimesis? Ans: Mimesis is a Greek term that means imitation. The first step in understanding Aristotle's account of mimesis is remembering that he spent many years studying at Plato's Academy. In Platonic thought, the things we encounter via our senses, the phenomena, are imitations of ideal forms. Art (whether poetry or painting), in imitating the phenomena, is thus merely an imitation of an imitation. Plato also divides imitation by medium (words, paint, marble, etc.). He further divides the verbal techniques of imitation into pure imitation or mimesis, in which an actor impersonates a character on stage, and diegesis, or narration, in which a narrator speaks in the third person about events. Epic is a mixed form, using both impersonation and narration when performed by a rhapsode. Plato tends to condemn imitation as degrading, because (1) impersonation can inculcate bad or non-rational habits and (2) because it focuses attention on mere phenomena. Aristotle accepts the Platonic distinction between mimesis and diegesis, but finds both valuable as modes of training and educating emotions.

  • Feminism in Indian English and Tamil Literature
    (RJELAL) Research Journal of English Language and Literature Vol.2.Issue.1.;2014 A Peer Reviewed International Journal - http://www.rjelal.com RESEARCH ARTICLE FEMINISM IN INDIAN ENGLISH AND TAMIL LITERATURE Dr. A. SELVAM1, Mrs. P. PANDIA RAJAMMAL2 1Controller of Examination, Bharathidasan University, Tiruchirappalli. 2Assistant Professor of English, Ultra College of Engineering & Technology for Women, Madurai ABSTRACT The feminist ideologies began to influence the English literature in India.
