Theoretical and Literary Spaces in Bangladesh Amitava
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Prometheus-Academic Collections The Marginalized in the Construction of ‘Indigenous’ Theoretical and Literary Spaces in Bangladesh Amitava CHAKRABORTY (Tokyo University of Foreign Studies, Japan) 1㸬 In the middle of the 80s of the last Century, Bengali culture witnessed the emergence of a literary and theoretical movement known as ‘Uttaradhunikatabad’1. 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. Little magazines from India and Bangladesh like Gangeya Patra, Beej, Alochanachakra, Samprata, Lalnakkhatra, Chatimtala, Sanket, Anyastar, Drastabya, Bipratik, Sudarshanchakra, 1400, Ekabingsho etc. nurtured the movement. 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. (Adhunik= Modern, Adhunikata= Modernity) Uttar is also used to mean ‘Post’ which has led many scholars and thinkers in translating this term as ‘Postmodernism’, whereas a few others have used the term Uttaradhunikatabad as one of the translations of the term ‘Postmodernism’. -

MOHAMMAD AMINUL ISLAM AND MOHAMMAD ZAMAN EKUSHEY FEBRUARY – INTERNATIONAL MOTHER LANGUAGE DAY: HISTORY, SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPLEMENTATION CHALLENGES1 1. INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Ever since its declaration By the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in NovemBer 1999, International Mother Language Day (IMLD) is celeBrated gloBally every year on 21st FeBruary. The celeBration aims at enhancing awareness of linguistic and cultural traditions all over the world By protecting and promoting all languages and linguistic diversity for multilingual education. The UNESCO declaration honored the people around the world who speak aBout 7000 distinct mother tongues/languages in some 188 countries. Unfortunately, many native/indigenous languages in various countries, including Canada, are now extinct and/or threatened By more dominant languages. According to one source, one language dies every 14 days; as a result, By 2100, nearly half of the 7000 languages that are spoken will most likely have disappeared (ABBi 2017).2 Today, close to 3000 mother tongues, particularly those of native/indigenous or First Nations people, are seriously endangered. Therefore, use of and/or speaking one’s mother tongue/language in a multiethnic and multilingual country like Canada is still not something that we can all take for granted. Canada has only two official languages (English and French), But we speak more than 300 mother tongues/languages in our homes across Canada. The worldwide annual oBservance of IMLD has given rise to a new awareness regarding the importance of saving our mother tongues, and the value of multilingualism and linguistic and cultural diversity. We are thankful for the invitation to present on the Background and significance of IMLD at the Canada 150 Conference on Migration of Bengalis to British Columbia. -

Profiles of Islamist Militants in Bangladesh by Shafi Md Mostofa and Natalie J
PERSPECTIVES ON TERRORISM Volume 13, Issue 5 Profiles of Islamist Militants in Bangladesh by Shafi Md Mostofa and Natalie J. Doyle Abstract Since the early 1980s, Bangladeshi militants have joined wars in Libya, Palestine, Afghanistan, Iraq, and Syria to fight for what they defined as the Ummah. Foreign cases of perceived Muslim suffering have always played a significant role in the escalation of Islamist militancy in Bangladesh. Originally, violent Islamists emerged principally in the Madrassas and came from poor families with rural backgrounds. The recent wave of Islamist militancy associated with the arrival in 2013 of Al Qaeda and the Islamic State has dramatically altered the character of Islamist militancy. Online radicalization is playing a much larger role and militant organizations are increasingly recruiting urban youths attending secular educational institutions, from both the upper and the middle classes. This Research Note explores the new profile of Islamist militants in Bangladesh by examining the biographies of the deceased Islamist militants who were killed by security forces in different operations and gunfights during the period between June 2016 and December 2018. The authors use data acquired from three newspapers renowned for covering Islamist militancy issues as well as information provided by Bangladeshi security forces. Data have been limited to deceased militants because their militancy was proven by their violent actions, at least in a number of cases. Keywords: Bangladesh, Islamist, Militant, Radicalization, and Terrorism Introduction The problem of Islamist militancy in Bangladesh first came to the public’s attention in the early 1980s and its rise has been inextricably linked with global phenomena. -
