But travel literature comes into existence when human existence gets into action. When human Right from the womb of mother till sinking into existence begins to flow and takes a certain form. And when that the earth human life is a consistent journey flow is in action in the form of language I prefer to use the term travel discourse. So travel discourse comes into existence whenever human existence is in the state of motion. So when human beings use A K Singh to move the consequence is Travel Literature or Travel Discourse. The concept of travel discourse is important because it goes beyond Distinguished Guests and Dear Students, written or printed world because discourse is language in action, and I can offer nothing but my salutations to Prof. SN Joshi who has been language in action can be what is oral, written or printed or even behind this journey of RASE. It is because of his zeal that the unstated, uncaptured by language. Association has been moving forward and it would be carried to new So discourse covers a larger category and therefore in a place like heights in the times to come. It is very difficult to sustain the Rajasthan when people travel extensively the important thing is that association of teachers .Because teachers have learnt from life we have to think is that when we discuss travel literature, or sciences to question everything and not to follow what they preach. whenever we shall consider travel discourse we have to take note of It is the democracy of this profession and I also include myself in large amount of oral discourse that might not be available in our this community. This becomes instrumental to the growth of the books. Second part I want to submit is that travelling is seeing; so associations and organizations and to the kind of works which are travel discourse is about seeing and living that seeing. And seeing is initiated despite all the harsh realities of life. I offer all my not a one way activity but it is a multi-faceted activity. For instance I salutations and I mean that. I wish that you will give more see you and when I am seeing you, you also see me. And when you opportunities to people like me to come and get educated with these see me then I see myself being seen by you.

  • Chapter Seven
    2008006. Sinha. 07_Chapter7. Proef 4. 13-5-2008:12.06, page 189. chapter seven CONCLUSIONS When the World War came to an end in 1945 after the dropping of the atom bomb on Japan by America, the world scenario changed overnight. The Allies had won the war and the Axis Powers had lost it. The war which had been fought almost all over the world was decided in Japan in Asia. The time of the final defeat, its location and the ulti- mate weapon used for it are the three factors crucial for understanding the problems and issues concerned with the development of science in India and in fact in Asia as a whole. This was a period of national upsurge against foreign rule in most of the Western colonies in Asia, and thus against imperialism and Western capitalism—a high time for the West to tame the tide in their favour. The Indian subcontinent was in the last leg of its freedom struggle and many adjoining regions were undergoing similar movements; but it was the farthest Japan that posed the greatest danger for the Western Allies. Rooted in a typical cultural tradition of the East, Japan was seething with aggressive nationalism and ready to take on the forces of the West. To add to the problem, she was calling for the unity of Asia and emerging as harbinger of a cul- tural awakening in the East. A national stirring was already resonant in the Indian subcontinent. Thirty years before the Second World War began, Gandhi’s evocation in his Hind Swaraj had called for reviving the traditional values of the East and for following them for social progress; between the World Wars, Rabindranath Tagore refined the idea with a modern outlook.1 Scholars like B.K.

  • The British Learning of Hindustani
    The British Learning of Hindustani Tariq Rahman The British considered Hindustani, an urban language of north India, the lingua franca of the whole country. They associated it with (easy) Urdu and not modern, or Sanskritized, Hindi. They learned it to exercise power and, because of that, were not careful of mastering the polite usages of the language or its grammar. The British perceptions of the language spread it widely throughout India, especially the urban areas, making it much more widespread than it was when they had arrived. Moreover, their tilt towards Urdu associated it with the Muslims and the language was officially discarded in favour of Hindi in India after independence. The literature of Anglo-India (used here in the earlier sense for the British in India and not for those born of marriages between Europeans and Indians as it came to be understood later) is full of words from Hindustani (also called Urdu by some authors). Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) can hardly be enjoyed unless one is provided with a glossary of these words and even then the authenticity of the experience of the raj is lost in the translation and the interpretation. Many of those who had been in India used words of Hindustani as an identity marker. According to Ivor Lewis, author of a dictionary of Anglo-Indian words: They [the Hindustani words] could not have been much used except (with fading relevance) among a declining number of 20 Pakistan Vision Vol. 8 No. 2 retired Anglo-Indians in the evening of their lives spent in their salubrious English compounds and cantonments.
