The movement was initiated by poet and critic Amitabha Gupta, who in 1985 presented the concept in the little magazine Janapada. It was then nurtured by critics, literary theoreticians and litterateurs like Anjan Sen, Birendra Chakravarti, Uday Narayan Singha, Tapodhir Bhattacharjee etc. from India and Ezaz Yusufi, Sajidul Haq, Jillur Rahman and Khondakar Ashraf Hossain from Bangladesh.

When Gupta first proposed the concept, it was centered on a new trend in poetry, which Gupta identified as a move beyond modernist literary culture. Following years, however, saw the movement developing its’ unique corpus of theoretical postulations regarding poetry and other forms of literature, poetic language and ontology. Gupta’s article titled Nibedan, published as the appendix of an anthology of Uttaradhunik poems, titled Uttar Adhunik Kabita2, offers a comprehensive account of the theoretical understanding at its earliest phase. He posited the new movement against the Modernist 1 Uttar = Beyond, Adhunikatabad = Modernism.

Alongside the experimental literary works by younger authors, Little Magazines also publish articles on different branches of Social Sciences. This paper tries to check the significance of such magazines in study and research of Sociology, Anthropology and Folklore in rural Bengal. It also examines the exclusiveness as well as the exhaustiveness of the published information, and the regional responsibility of the magazines. The paper concludes with the comments that the volatile and short-lived publications should be archived with care and the information lying scattered there should be indexed properly.

D. Suresh Research Scholar & Assistant Professor Dept. of P G Studies in English, Government Arts College (Autonomous) Chitradurga, Karnataka, India Email - [email protected] Abstract: Autobiography is enjoyed as a literary genre all over the world. Its importance as a means of self- examination, self-creation and self–regeneration has been recognized by the critics and creative writers. Writing an autobiography is a Western tradition where people enjoy to celebrate the ‘self’ and they are eager to demonstrate their achievement. Indians have adopted this tradition of writing an autobiography from the West. Autobiography can be classified into two categories one as the life stories which inspires, stimulates and demonstrates personal achievements of an individual. Secondly, the life stories which not only demonstrates the saga of individual but also the society as a whole depicts sorrows, sufferings, subjugation and socio-economic conditions. Dalit autobiographies belongs to the second category. They have portrayed the socio-economic, cultural and political conditions of Dalit Community under the control and influence of Upper Caste Hindu society. Contemporary Indian Society was divided under the wrong notions of ‘Purity and Pollution’. Dalits were treated as untouchables and polluters to the High Caste Hindus because they were born in the low caste. They were intentionally kept ignorant and denied to take education and asked to live out of town in separate colonies by high caste Hindus to safeguard their control over Dalits.
