But in Devkota the reflection of English Romantic style is yery evident. Many of his poems are filled with exuberant feeling, the worship of beauty, and love of nature. While Lekhnath appears in the guise of a moral teacher giving advice, Devkota, instead of giving advice, is impelled toward in art that touches the heart. He believes that the nature of true art is to touch the heart, and through the heart to fully involve the intellect. In Balkrishna Sama-ji the poetiy comes forth v^ith an effort — the flowers are embroidered with much of the skill of a painter or fine artificer. Devkota's poetry comes flowing forth of itself, without effort ... the poet like a springtime bird pours out his heart's ;joy. He does not have to fashion a meter or count syllables or stop often in his writing. In his style are dash, speed, and power. One is often afraid that, like a rivulet, in the rain it may overflow the banks with an excess of power and break the dikes. And one also fears th&t such a flood, becoming murigr, will turn into mud and dirt and tiny bits of gold. Devkota does not pause to edit, refine or go over a second time, and occasionally the poetry is marked ty lack of clarity, confused grammatical structure, and obscurity (aspastata* -487- duranvava, d^irbodhati)» He sees the form of the external world as the reflection of his own inner activity. Or he sees his own profound inner truths shining in the portrayal of nature. For lekhnath-^i nature is a pleasantly painted canvas or background. But for Iiaxmiprasad Devkota nature is seen as a living caapanion or a mine of beauty. In this tendency we find the influence of Wordsworth or Shelley or Keats in him. (The flavor of aiglish literature, particularly Homantic literature, makes a profound and colorful impression in this poet who sucks the Juice of English literature. In Devkota there is the quality of theism, which takes on a quite different philosophical turn in Lekhnath-ji and is not found at all in Balkrishna Sama-ji. He sees a suprone deity as monarch of the world and the soul as monarch of the body.

    JOURNAL OF ASIAN ARTS, CULTURE AND LITERATURE (JAACL) VOL 2, NO 1: MARCH 2021 Riveting Nepal: A Cultural Flash! By Ms. Mahua Sen [email protected] Abstract “A Nepali outlook, pace and philosophy had prevented us being swamped by our problems. In Nepal, it was easier to take life day by day.” -Jane Wilson-Howarth, A Glimpse of Eternal Snows: A Journey of Love and Loss in the Himalayas. We do sniff the essence of Nepal in these lines! Squeezed in between China and India, Nepal is one of the most fascinating places to visit on earth. Home to the awe-inspiring Mt. Everest, the birthplace of Lord Buddha, this exquisite country stretches diverse landscapes from the Himalayan Mountains in the North to the flat expansive plains in the south. The birth of the nation is dated to Prithvi Narayan Shah's conquest of the Kathmandu Valley kingdoms in 1768. Deep gorges, sky-scraping mountains, exuberant culture and charismatic people – Nepal is the ideal destination not only for adventurers but also for people seeking a peaceful sojourn in the lap of serenity. Keywords Nepal, culture, festival, Hindu, Buddhism 1 JOURNAL OF ASIAN ARTS, CULTURE AND LITERATURE (JAACL) VOL 2, NO 1: MARCH 2021 Festival Flavors Customs and culture vary from one part of Nepal to another. The capital city Kathmandu is drenched in a rich drapery of cultures, a unique silhouette to form a national identity. Nepali culture portrays an amalgamation of Indo-Aryan and Tibeto-Mongolian influences, the result of a long history of migration, conquest, and trade.

  • Theatre and Life Heatre at the Intersection of Art, Politics and International Development
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-108-41611-5 — Rehearsing for Life Monica Mottin Excerpt More Information 1 Theatre and Life heatre at the intersection of art, politics and international development his book is about social and political theatre in Nepal. In particular, it Texamines how everyday social problems and macro-political conlicts are both represented and challenged through drama-based performances. How are theatre and social reality (dis)connected? How can relexivity and ambiguity allow for the aesthetic space to become a transformative place? What diferentiates street theatre performed in planned development from street theatre performed within social and political movements? How can performance and dramatic action move communities towards social action? To answer these questions I delve into both aesthetic and social performance contexts of three types of theatre and performance for social change available to Nepali audiences in the mid-2000s: kachahari natak (forum theatre/street theatre), loktantrik natak (theatre for democracy) and Maoist political cultural programmes that may include krantikari natak (revolutionary theatre). In other words, the political theatre for democracy performed by Aarohan heatre Group, development forum theatre performed by both Aarohan heatre in Kathmandu and by the Kamlari Natak Samuha, a haru activist group, in the rural areas of western Nepal, the political performance of the Maoist cultural groups, all aim to bring about social change, but how are they similar and how do they difer? Aarohan heatre Group, a Kathmandu-based professional company and Gurukul, the theatre school associated with the group, is at the core of this ethnography. It is the main ield site from which I tried to understand the world of theatre for social change in Nepal.

  • Neupane 1 Chapter I Locating Setting and Its Role in Drama a Setting Is
    Neupane 1 Chapter I Locating Setting and its Role in Drama A setting is just a beautiful thing, a collection of beautiful things. It is a presence, a mood, a warm wind fanning the drama to flame. It echoes, it enhances, it animates. It is an expectancy, a foreboding, a tension. It says nothing, but it gives everything. (Jones 26) An American scenic, lighting and costume designer, Robert Edmond Jones in his book The Dramatic Imagination (1941) exposes the basic sense of setting in drama. In another context, Jones states, "A stage setting has no independent life of its own. Its emphasis is directed toward the performance. In the absence of the actor it does not exist. Strange as it may seem, the simple and fundamental principle of stage design still seems to be widely misunderstood. " (Qtd. in Cohen, 122). The visions of setting and its significance are not defined clearly. On the one hand, Jones explains setting as an element that describes every emotion of the performance. On the other hand, he describes setting has no independent existence in absence of the performance and actor. Therefore, there is no clear perception on the importance of setting in drama. Since the setting is the crucial part of any text, it cannot be omitted or analyzed separately from the meaning. Kari K Pitkanen in The Spatio-Temporal Setting in Written Narrative Fiction brings the references of various researchers to introduce setting. He presents setting as such: For several researchers including e.g. Labov & Waletsky (1967), Rumelhart (1975: 213) and Van Dijk (1980), a setting is a text-initial, structural macro- unit that describes the starting point and surroundings for a story by providing the main character, the spatio-temporal location and other necessary information.

All of your accepted / unaccepted self-reflections shall become collages on the canvas of the history assimilated in this anthology. Dear Feelers! Wherever and whenever questions evolve, the existential consciousness of man keeps exploring the horizon of possibilities for the right answer even without the ultimate support to fall back upon. Existential revelations clearly dwell on the borderline, though it might be in a clash. In the present contexts, at places, questions of Nepali identity, modernity, representativeness, poetic quality, mainstream or periphery, temporal boundaries and limitations of number evolve – wanted or unwanted. Amidst the multitude of these questions, Dancing Soul of Mount Everest has assumed this accomplished form in its attempt to pervade the entirety as far as possible.

Four Nepali Short Stories. HIMALAYA 8(1). Available at: https://digitalcommons.macalester.edu/himalaya/vol8/iss1/4 This Other is brought to you for free and open access by the DigitalCommons@Macalester College at DigitalCommons@Macalester College. It has been accepted for inclusion in HIMALAYA, the Journal of the Association for Nepal and Himalayan Studies by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@Macalester College. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Introduced and Translated by Theodore Riccardi, lr. Modern Nepali literature has received very little attention from scholars in the West. There have been no studies, and only a few translations. One thinks immediately of Sandra Zeidenstein's translation of Parijat's Sirishko Phul, entitled Blue Mimosa, Greta Rana's White Tiger, a translation of Diamond Shamsher's Seto Bagh, and David Rubin's admirable translations of the poetry of Laksmi Prasad Devkota, entitled Nepali Visions, Nepali Dreams. Beyond these, there is very little. Why this should be so is not very clear, particularly when one thinks of how the study of Nepal has grown in Europe and America over the last thirty years. Part of the explanation I think lies in the general tendency of some literary scholars to revel in the past and the traditional only, to value the classical and the medieval text and to denigrate the modern as somehow less worthy of attention.

Its Nepali translation, bikās, is commonly believed to have come into existence with the American Point Four assistance in 1951, followed by a plethora of technical and financial assistance offered by various countries. That development is to be achieved mainly through foreign-aided interventions that will ultimately propel the country to economic prosperity and social wellbeing akin to the West is the dominant view in Nepal. Such a view makes development a fairly recent phenomenon.

Here in editorial context, I extend words of gratitude that express themselves, though they might have remained apparently unexpressed. All of your accepted / unaccepted self-reflections shall become collages on the canvas of the history assimilated in this anthology. Dear Feelers! Wherever and whenever questions evolve, the existential consciousness of man keeps exploring the horizon of possibilities for the right answer even without the ultimate support to fall back upon. Existential revelations clearly dwell on the borderline, though it might be in a clash. In the present contexts, at places, questions of Nepali identity, modernity, representativeness, poetic quality, mainstream or periphery, temporal boundaries and limitations of number evolve – wanted or unwanted. Amidst the multitude of these questions, Dancing Soul of Mount Everest has assumed this accomplished form in its attempt to pervade the entirety as far as possible.
