Sudoku Sudoku New BETA I definitely think there is much truth to that statement, particularly when one juxtaposes that sentiment against Crossword a filmmaker like Aparna Sen. With the generation of Jumble filmmakers of that era we are losing out on directors Gallery Paromitar Ekdin who are responsive to the socio-political environment Horse Racing and there is almost a visceral need of reacting to the Press Releases surroundings through their films. Travel WEEKLY FEATURES It is exemplified in the cinema of Aparna Sen. Whether it is about the disturbing communal environ during the early part of the last decade, or the issue of women’s identity or environmental degradation — the gamut of her subject matter in her body of films is 7days commendable. She is a true humanist in the tradition of Rabindranath Tagore, Satyajit Graphiti Ray and Amartya Sen. Hence the topics she delves into are always under the aegis of Knowhow humanism and thus do not seem like espousing a cause. Jobs Careergraph Salt Lake That is what makes her work aesthetically so subtle. Her style of storytelling blends with that general philosophy quite seamlessly. Take the example of women’s identity. I think CITIES AND REGIONS there is no other director who has represented Indian women of different strata so Metro convincingly — whether it is the Anglo-Indian portrayal by Jennifer Kapoor in 36 North Bengal Chowringhee Lane , the Tamil Brahmin portrayed by Konkona Sensharma in Mr and Mrs Iyer or the character of a north Calcutta housewife portrayed by herself in Paromitar Northeast Ekdin . Jharkhand Bihar Yes, all of these stories portray different aspects of Odisha their lives such that we identify with them at a personal ARCHIVES level but her feminism is part of her humanism. I know Since 1st March, 1999 of generations of Bengali women who have found life inspiration from her movies. THE TELEGRAPH Another noteworthy thing in her films is the portrayal of - About Us the male characters. Along with the above mentioned - Advertise female characters, her films have portrayed very - Feedback strong and significant male characters. - Contact Us 36 Chowringhee Lane Rahul Bose’s character in The Japanese Wife or Rajesh Sharma’s in Paromitar Ekdin or more recently Koushik Sen’s in Iti Mrinalini are memorable male characters. The point that I want to hone in is that it is not necessary to portray the other sex in a lesser light or depth in order to espouse woman’s identity. Again, her humanism always takes the front seat in her stories. She has explored love in different forms through her films — illicit love in 36 Chowringhee Lane , extramarital love in Paroma , platonic love in The Japanese Wife , love in the time of riots in Mr and Mrs Iyer or the daughter and mother-in-law love in Paromitar Ekdin . And her exploration of different forms of love, however against convention, is never judgemental. In terms of directorial style, she is the perfect amalgam of the visual and the verbal. There are some directors whom one will love for the impeccable incisive dialogues, and some for their stupendous visual imagery — but for Aparna Sen, the two are enmeshed to make http://www.telegraphindia.com/1120716/jsp/entertainment/story_15732490.jsp 9/28/2012 Suman Ghosh on the feminism and humanism in Aparna Sen ’s cinema Page 2 of 2 cinema.

Kurosawa's Ran: Reception and Interpretation ANN THOMPSON AKIRA KUROSAWA'S Ran (literally, war, riot, or chaos) was chosen as the first film to be shown at the First Tokyo International Film Festival in June 1985, and it opened commercially in Japan to record-breaking busi­ ness the next day. The director did not attend the festivities associated with the premiere, however, and the reception given to the film by Japa­ nese critics and reporters, though positive, was described by a French critic who had been deeply involved in the project as having "something of the air of an official embalming" (Raison 1985, 9).

  • Why Shakespeare? Dennis Kennedy and Yong Li Lan
    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-51552-8 - Shakespeare in Asia: Contemporary Performance Edited by Dennis Kennedy and Yong Li Lan Excerpt More information chapter 1 Introduction: Why Shakespeare? Dennis Kennedy and Yong Li Lan This book treats contemporary Shakespeare performance in Asia from theoretical and historical perspectives: it is interested in how and why Shakespeare operates on the stage, in film, and in other performative modes in regions of the world that have no overwhelming reason to turn to him. The essayists represented here offer questions about cultural difference and cultural value, appropriation and dissemination, corporeal and intellectual adaptation, and the ways in which Asia is part of and simultaneously stands aloof from global civilization. Much has happened on planet Shakespeare since 1990. For our purposes the most important development has been a notable increase in Shakespeare performance in surroundings alien to the traditions of the main English-speaking nations, some of which has been exported to the West, prompting corresponding expansion in the international critical attention those productions have received in the popular press and in the academy. The collapse of the former Soviet empire and its satellite states, a major increase in globalized communications and marketing, political and economic migration, busi- ness and touristic travel, and the internationalizing of stock exchanges, among other issues, have combined to make many parts of the world aware of cultural products previously unknown or undervalued, or prompted re-evaluations of work already known. Some of this has been connected to the result of the globalizing of American movies and television, but it has affected Shakespeare as well.

  • Koel Chatterjee Phd Thesis
    Bollywood Shakespeares from Gulzar to Bhardwaj: Adapting, Assimilating and Culturalizing the Bard Koel Chatterjee PhD Thesis 10 October, 2017 I, Koel Chatterjee, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: Date: 10th October, 2017 Acknowledgements This thesis would not have been possible without the patience and guidance of my supervisor Dr Deana Rankin. Without her ability to keep me focused despite my never-ending projects and her continuous support during my many illnesses throughout these last five years, this thesis would still be a work in progress. I would also like to thank Dr. Ewan Fernie who inspired me to work on Shakespeare and Bollywood during my MA at Royal Holloway and Dr. Christie Carson who encouraged me to pursue a PhD after six years of being away from academia, as well as Poonam Trivedi, whose work on Filmi Shakespeares inspired my research. I thank Dr. Varsha Panjwani for mentoring me through the last three years, for the words of encouragement and support every time I doubted myself, and for the stimulating discussions that helped shape this thesis. Last but not the least, I thank my family: my grandfather Dr Somesh Chandra Bhattacharya, who made it possible for me to follow my dreams; my mother Manasi Chatterjee, who taught me to work harder when the going got tough; my sister, Payel Chatterjee, for forcing me to watch countless terrible Bollywood films; and my father, Bidyut Behari Chatterjee, whose impromptu recitations of Shakespeare to underline a thought or an emotion have led me inevitably to becoming a Shakespeare scholar.

  • Comparative Study of Print Media Coverage of Indian Athletes in London Olympics
    Journal of Sports Research, 2015, 2(1): 10-17 Journal of Sports Research ISSN(e): 2410-6534/ISSN(p): 2413-8436 URL: www.pakinsight.com COMPARATIVE STUDY OF PRINT MEDIA COVERAGE OF INDIAN ATHLETES IN LONDON OLYMPICS Asish Paul1† --- Gopa Saha Roy2 1Assistant Professor, Dept. of Physical Education, Jadavpur University, Kolkata, W.B., India 2Assistant Professor, S.I.P.E.W., Hastings House, Alipur, Kolkata, W.B., India ABSTRACT Sports became the most interesting area of media coverage among different stream. As it has got its most important status in the world’s media to popularize the newspaper, there is a distinct lack of comparative research on the media coverage of sports. To minimize the gap, this search draws attention on sports coverage during the London Olympics, 2012 from three different newspapers of different languages. The coverages were recorded considering the preview, competition and review phases. The results show that the total coverage of the English newspaper, the Telegraph (36039 sq. cm.) was more than the other two Bengali and Hindi newspapers (9224 sq. cm. and 2599 sq. cm. respectively). The female performers got more attention (34942 sq. cm.) than the male performers (12920 sq. cm.). All the three newspapers provided maximum coverage in the competition phase rather than the other two phases. The English newspaper provided more attention in preview of the main competition also in comparison to the other two newspapers. It has concluded that the coverage of the print media depends mainly on the performance of the athletes, popularity of the performers and intensity of the competition.

  • Setting the Stage: a Materialist Semiotic Analysis Of
    SETTING THE STAGE: A MATERIALIST SEMIOTIC ANALYSIS OF CONTEMPORARY BENGALI GROUP THEATRE FROM KOLKATA, INDIA by ARNAB BANERJI (Under the Direction of Farley Richmond) ABSTRACT This dissertation studies select performance examples from various group theatre companies in Kolkata, India during a fieldwork conducted in Kolkata between August 2012 and July 2013 using the materialist semiotic performance analysis. Research into Bengali group theatre has overlooked the effect of the conditions of production and reception on meaning making in theatre. Extant research focuses on the history of the group theatre, individuals, groups, and the socially conscious and political nature of this theatre. The unique nature of this theatre culture (or any other theatre culture) can only be understood fully if the conditions within which such theatre is produced and received studied along with the performance event itself. This dissertation is an attempt to fill this lacuna in Bengali group theatre scholarship. Materialist semiotic performance analysis serves as the theoretical framework for this study. The materialist semiotic performance analysis is a theoretical tool that examines the theatre event by locating it within definite material conditions of production and reception like organization, funding, training, availability of spaces and the public discourse on theatre. The data presented in this dissertation was gathered in Kolkata using: auto-ethnography, participant observation, sample survey, and archival research. The conditions of production and reception are each examined and presented in isolation followed by case studies. The case studies bring the elements studied in the preceding section together to demonstrate how they function together in a performance event. The studies represent the vast array of theatre in Kolkata and allow the findings from the second part of the dissertation to be tested across a variety of conditions of production and reception.

  • O Przygodach Bengalczyków W Indyjsko-Japońskim Ogrodzie Fikcji
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Jagiellonian Univeristy Repository Monika Browarczyk Uniwersytet Adama Mickiewicza w Poznaniu O przygodach Bengalczyków w indyjsko-japońskim ogrodzie fi kcji The Japanese Wife Aparny Sen i Kunala Basu Europejskie stereotypy na wyrafi nowanego kulturalnie erudytę i intelektuali- stę namaszczają Francuza; na subkontynencie indyjskim jego odpowiednikiem w obiegowej opinii jest Bengalczyk postrzegany jako przedstawiciel inteligen- cji i awangardy artystycznej – jeśli nie twórca, to choćby subtelny koneser sztuk. Źródła intelektualnego wysublimowania mieszkańców Bengalu indyj- ski – a szczególnie północnoindyjski vox populi, choć populi ogranicza się do niewielkiej stosunkowo grupy odbiorców kultury – odnajduje w pionierskim i bliskim kontakcie Bengalu z kulturą brytyjskich kolonizatorów. Kontakt ten inspirował twórców regionu do wprowadzenia nowatorskich przemian w róż- nych dziedzinach sztuki, co z kolei stało się natchnieniem dla artystów z innych części subkontynentu, zwłaszcza zaś właśnie z północy. W licznym panteonie wybitnych autorów bengalskich szczególne miejsce zajmują oddaleni od siebie w czasie Rabindranath Tagore (wym. Tagor) (1861−1941) i Satyajit Ray (wym. Satjadźit Raj) (1921−1992), którzy w swoich dziedzinach – literaturze i fi lmie1 – stali się rozpoznawanymi i docenianymi w całym świecie ikonami kultury nawet nie bengalskiej, ale indyjskiej2. Co więcej, Ray sięgał wielokrotnie do twórczości Rabindranatha Tagore’a, przekładając jego literaturę na swój własny język kina autorskiego. 1 Choć nie ograniczali się tylko do twórczości w jednej dyscyplinie. Ray pisał również opo- wiadania i powieści, a Rabindranath Tagore, najsławniejszy indyjski poeta, był także powieściopi- sarzem, nowelistą, dramaturgiem, eseistą, kompozytorem i malarzem. Por.
