Imagining Indian Literature: Towards a Historiography of Translation
Imagining Indian Literature: Towards a Historiography of Translation MRINMOY PRAMANICK Research question what this paper tries to address is the role of translation in imagining nation and national literature in Indian context from a bhasha perspective. This paper argues that a partial history of literary translation can be proposed from the act of imagining national literature in a certain language. Research in this subject concerns on the history of literary translation by the government and non-government publishing houses, academic disciplines and academic activities like seminar, conferences, symposium, workshops etc. as the stepping stones for imagining nation through translation. This paper took quite a few examples of above mentioned literary activities to propose a history of translation as well as the history of Indian literature in a bhasha context. Keywords: Indian literature, nation, national literature, historiography, bangla translation, ecology of translation. ... the major modern Indian languages have developed not only through ‘vertical’ translations from the languages of power and knowledge - English and Sanskrit - but also by engaging in ‘horizontal’ translations of one another, ultimately contributing to the creation of an inherently pluralistic body of literature in India. (Translation as Growth: Towards a Theory of Language Development, Uday Narayan Singh). Imagining Indian Literature in Bangla can be traced back from 19th century with the translation of Indian literary texts from West Indian languages by Jyotindranath Tagore and also with the translation of Rabindranath Tagore’s translations of Indian poetry. This paper traced the history of translation and imagination of National literature from early 20th century as theoretically Indian Literature were assumed to be studied.

Genealogies of Indian Literature
Genealogies of Indian Literature Since who or what is “Indian” has always remained a matter of contention, the term “Indian literature” becomes even more difficult to define and understand. Literature in India is as old as its paintings or its sculpture, but a sustained pursuit of its history began only at the dawn of the 19th century. That is when Indian literature became a theoretical category. But from the Sanskrit bias of early European Indologists, to the reformist-nationalist-modernist projects, to the ease with writing in English, literature in India has traversed diverse terrains. P P RAVEENDRAN n recent days there has been a great deal of debate on the found immediate acceptability in the Oriental world in the era of significance of the two words “Indian” and “literature,” modernity and colonisation. What all this suggests is that the Ithough not always in a contiguous context, and certainly not cultural roots of Indian literature and Indian sensibility on the same level of theoretical and political resonance. Taken should be construed as running deeper and stronger than the roots separately, neither “Indian” nor “literature” would elicit uniform of the corresponding tendencies in the socio-economic realm. response even from the common reader. While who or what is We are grappling here with questions of knowledge formation, “Indian” has always remained a matter of contention among and in this context it is worthwhile to remember that knowledge sections of the citizenry, especially in post-independence India, is not a neutral category that gets circulated in a society in an what constitutes “real” literature has also been a matter of serious unmediated way.

Eminent Literary Luminaries of Orissa
ORISSA REFERENCE ANNUAL - 2004 EMINENT LITERARY LUMINARIES OF ORISSA JAYADEVA Jayadeva lived in the twelfth century and is well-known author of the musical epic Sri Geeta Govinda. He hailed from Kenduli village in the Prachi Valley between Bhubaneswar and Puri. He spent most of his life at Puri and composed the songs of Sri Geeta Govinda as musical offerings to Lord Jagannath. Padmavati his beloved wife, danced to the songs sang and choreographed by Jayadeva. The composition was probably performed first on the twin occasions of the dedication on the Srimandir and the coronation of Kamarnava as the crown prince in 1142 AD, during the reign of Chodaganga Deva, the founder of the great Ganga Empire in the east coast of India, Jayadeva, a great scholar and composer was a devotee first and a poet next. His Sri Geeta Govinda is a glorification of the essence of Jagannath Chetana or Jagannath Consciousness–the path of simple surrender, which later Sri Chaitanya popularized as the Gopi Bhava or the Radha Bhava. Gitagovinda has become the main prop of Odissi dance. It also has an enormous influence on the patta paintings of Raghurajpur. As a beautiful, ornate kavya, Gitagovinda received appreciation at home and abroad. Its sonorous diction and rhythmic musical excellence have created a unique place for it in world literature. Gitagovinda consists of twelve cantos or sargas including twenty- four songs and seventy- two slokas. It is designed to be sung in definite ragas and talas. It has been rightly observed that a narrative thread runs through the songs, lending it a dramatic structure.

Debunking Orthodoxy in Kamala Das' the Sandal
PSYCHOLOGY AND EDUCATION (2021) 58(4): 3300-3306 ISSN:00333077 DEBUNKING ORTHODOXY IN KAMALA DAS’ THE SANDAL TREES AND SARA JOSEPH’S THE SCENT OF THE OTHER SIDE Dr. S. Devika Associate Professor, English, HHMSPBNSS College for Women, Neeramankara, Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India ABSTRACT: The two Malayalam novels discussed in this paper tell tales of women’s transgressions. It is a transgression of a sexual nature that forms the theme of Kamala Das’ The Sandal Trees and Sara Joseph’s The Scent of the Other Side; in the case of the latter, the violation strikes at the very core of the Roman Catholic religion as it is practised in Kerala. In both the Malayalam novels, the transgressions that challenge and resist the power structures in society, be they of caste, religion, marriage or gender, provoke strong reactions from the dominant power groups who seek to oppress and subdue the violators and to reinforce the norms of orthodoxy. This study primarily attempts to put in perspective the mapping of Kerala in fiction, with reference to the gender question. Keywords: Malayalam fiction, transgression, orthodoxy, female psyche, resistance, stoicism Article Received: 18 October 2020, Revised: 3 November 2020, Accepted: 24 December 2020 The modern state of Kerala on the western coast its sobriquet “God’s Own Country,” but to the of the Indian Union, which lies to the west of Malayali it is an intrinsic part of his consciousness Tamil Nadu and southwest of Karnataka came and identity, defining his habits, customs, rituals into existence with the unification of the provinces and mode of life in ways that have cultural, social, of Travancore, Cochin and Malabar on November economic, even political ramifications.
