The original texts include religious epics, Shakespeare’s plays, Bengali novels which were written pre- independence, and Hollywood films. This venture uses adaptation theory as well as postmodernist and postcolonial theories to examine how women and men are represented in the adaptations as well as how contemporary audience expectations help to create the identity of the characters in the films.

  • Koel Chatterjee Phd Thesis
    Bollywood Shakespeares from Gulzar to Bhardwaj: Adapting, Assimilating and Culturalizing the Bard Koel Chatterjee PhD Thesis 10 October, 2017 I, Koel Chatterjee, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: Date: 10th October, 2017 Acknowledgements This thesis would not have been possible without the patience and guidance of my supervisor Dr Deana Rankin. Without her ability to keep me focused despite my never-ending projects and her continuous support during my many illnesses throughout these last five years, this thesis would still be a work in progress. I would also like to thank Dr. Ewan Fernie who inspired me to work on Shakespeare and Bollywood during my MA at Royal Holloway and Dr. Christie Carson who encouraged me to pursue a PhD after six years of being away from academia, as well as Poonam Trivedi, whose work on Filmi Shakespeares inspired my research. I thank Dr. Varsha Panjwani for mentoring me through the last three years, for the words of encouragement and support every time I doubted myself, and for the stimulating discussions that helped shape this thesis. Last but not the least, I thank my family: my grandfather Dr Somesh Chandra Bhattacharya, who made it possible for me to follow my dreams; my mother Manasi Chatterjee, who taught me to work harder when the going got tough; my sister, Payel Chatterjee, for forcing me to watch countless terrible Bollywood films; and my father, Bidyut Behari Chatterjee, whose impromptu recitations of Shakespeare to underline a thought or an emotion have led me inevitably to becoming a Shakespeare scholar.

  • Rabindrnath Tagore's Nauka Dubi - from Page to Screenn Prof
    Rabindrnath Tagore's Nauka Dubi - From Page to Screenn Prof. Shailee Dhamsania A journey of a literary work fiom page to screen makes adaptation interesting. The adaptation of print medium into film took place for certain reasons. Firstly, the director gets fascinated by the story and believes the story lends itself beautihlly to the medium of film. Secondly, many a time he wishes to present his personal interpretation of the original story through his own language of film. Thirdly, he wishes to take up the challenge of recreating a period in history, and the original literary source is picked up mainly for the period element than for its theme of plot. Fourthly, he would like to use film because the story as literature reflects it, is in some way or another his own ideological stand on a particular subject or issue, and his use of the film medium conveys this ideology to his audience. Rabindranath Tagore is a milestone in Bengali literature. With the publication of Gitanjali, his fame attained a luminous height taking him across continents. For the world he became the voice of India's spiritual heritage; and for India, especially for Bengal he became a great living institution. Tagore was philosophic, spiritual and experimental in his expression. He was more inclined to poetry but contributed and enriched all most all forms of art and literature. There is no exaggeration if we call him the best literary stalwart of India. His famous work e.g. 'Gora', 'Chokher-Bali', 'Nauka Dubi', 'Char Ad*' fall into the category of the best Bengali novels, extremely popular and reached the masses through the,original and translated versions of his works.

The project set out to examine key moments of cultural creativity in nine cities across the world on the following premise: that at different times in different places through the twentieth century, the energy of the modern metropolis peaked to produce a cultural explosion, where the arts flourished in a dynamic and radical interchange. The reasons for these creative flashpoints are diverse, but each city, at its particular time, can be seen to have become a crucible drawing artists from the city and other regions into an artistic and intellectual ferment.

  • Sexual Myths and Self-Body Consciousness: in Rituporno Ghosh’S Adaptation of Tagore’S Chitrangada
    Pratidhwani the Echo A Peer-Reviewed International Journal of Humanities & Social Science ISSN: 2278-5264 (Online) 2321-9319 (Print) Impact Factor: 6.28 (Index Copernicus International) Volume-IV, Issue-I, July 2015, Page No. 40-43 Published by Dept. of Bengali, Karimganj College, Karimganj, Assam, India Website: http://www.thecho.in Sexual myths and self-body consciousness: In Rituporno Ghosh’s adaptation of Tagore’s Chitrangada. Barnali Sikder. Assistant Professor, Janata College, Serfanguri. Assam, India Abstract The traditionally sanctioned space of heterosexuality is being increasingly challenged in art and aesthetics today. Homosexuality as a taboo and part of a trangressive space is being negated on basis of both western feminist interventions as much as a neo-liberalist reterritorialization of body and sexuality as a subversive symbol against commoditification of the body as an intrusion into identity of the body, hence of self. Noted film-maker Rituporno Ghosh appropriates Rabindranath Tagore’s Chitrangada with a telling effect, cinematizing on the dilemma of homosexuals embedded in a society which can’t define desire and pleasure beyond the body- negating other identitarian possibilities for which the body is a metaphor. In his film, Ghosh has thoroughly dealt with the issue of homosexuals and aesthetized a vision for a transformation in our outlook. This aesthetised vision can be achieved with the realization that the body can never be considered as the epitome of an individuated identity. Here, in Rituporno Ghosh’s adaptation of Tagore’s Chitrangada literature has come to life through the lense of his camera putting a strong statement against a mythicised truth.
