  • Some Notes on Nepali Castes and Sub-Castes—Jat and Thar
    SOME NOTES ON NEPALI CASTES AND SUB-CASTES- JAT AND THAR. - Suresh Singh This paper attempts to make a re-presentation of evolution and construction of Jat and Thar system among the Parbatya or hill people of Nepal. It seeks to expose the reality behind the myth that the large number of Aryans migrated from Indian plains due to Muslim invasion and conquered to become the rulers in Nepal, and the Mongoloids were the indigenous people. It also seeks to show the construction and reconstruction of identity of the different castes (Jats) and subcastes (Thars). The Nepalese history is lost in legends and fables. Archaeological data, which might shed light on the early years, are practically nonexistent or largely unexplored, because the Nepalese Government has not encouraged such research within its borders. However, there seem to be a number of sites that might yield valuable find, once proper excavation take place. Another problem seems to be that history writing is closely connected with the traditional conception of Nepali historiography, constructed and intervened by the efforts of the ruling elite. Many of the written documents have been re-presented to legitimatize the ruling elite’s claim to power. As it is well known from political history, the social history, too, becomes an interpretation from the view of the Kathmandu valley, and from the Indian or alleged Indian immigrants and priestly class. It is difficult to imagine, that Aryans came to Nepal in greater numbers about 600 years ago, and because of their mental superiority and their noble character, they were asked by the people to become the rulers of their small states.

    JODEM: Journal of Language and Literature, vol. 10, no. 1, issue 12, 2019/ 2076BS 1 Yogmaya: Historical Reality in the Fictional Existence Anupa Wagle Abstract The aim of this article is to analyze the novel Yogmaya to find out the balance between the fictional world presented in it and the history related to it. Written as a novel on the background of Rana Period in Nepal, my endeavour is to find out whether the novel is successful to portray the contemporary Nepalese society. In order to analyze the novel this study draws insight from new historicism that demands the equal weight for literary foreground and historical background. For this, the study is limited within some aspects of New Historical approach and fictional world related to social phenomena presented in the novel. Finally, this article includes the major finding of this study that the fictional foregrounding of the novel successfully portrays the contemporary social background of the concerned time and place. Free translation is used while citing texts from the novel since it is in Nepali. Keywords: Realism, historicism, new historicism, evil customs, women movement.

Many people sacrificed their lives while they revolted against that ruling system. Our history always remembers the contribution of four martyrs who belong to that age.
