  • Reflection of Marriage and Family in Vijay Tendulkar's Play
    REFLECTION OF MARRIAGE AND FAMILY IN VIJAY TENDULKAR’S PLAY “KAMALA” FADL MOHAMMED AIED ALGALHADI DR. SHAILAJA B. WADIKAR Ph D. Research Scholar Dep. of English Associate Professor School of Lang. Lit. & Culture School of Lang. Lit. & Culture S. R. T. M. U. Nanded S. R. T. M. University, Nanded (MS) INDIA (MS) INDIA A drama as part of literature is admittedly a convenient way for showing social problems of society in which story is told to the audience through the performance on the stage by the actors. The present paper aims to study Vijay Tendulkar’s ideas about marriage family in his play Kamala. The play is based on a real life incident. Kamala is a play that elucidates the predicament of women. The play explores how women have been treated by male counterparts. Women are oppressed, misused, exploited, and enslaved. Kamala shows how women are used as a means for fulfillment of men's lust, ambition, fame, and money. The paper presents the horrible exploitation of women in the rural area of India where women can be bought from a flesh market .It aims to show the reality of life of women in modern India especially the concept of marriage and family. This paper will focus on the theme of exploitation which is found in the marital relationship in this play. Key Words: Vijay Tendulkar, Marriage, Family, Exploitation, Kamala, Drama, Women. INTRODUCTION Drama is the form of composition designed for performance in the theater, in which actors take the role of the characters, perform the indicated action, and utter the written dialogue(M.H.Abram ).According to Dryden“drama is just and lively image of human nature, representing its passions and humors, and the changes of fortune to which it is subjected, for the delight and instruction of mankind.”Drama in India has ancient history.

  • Volume 1 on Stage/ Off Stage
    lives of the women Volume 1 On Stage/ Off Stage Edited by Jerry Pinto Sophia Institute of Social Communications Media Supported by the Laura and Luigi Dallapiccola Foundation Published by the Sophia Institute of Social Communications Media, Sophia Shree B K Somani Memorial Polytechnic, Bhulabhai Desai Road, Mumbai 400 026 All rights reserved Designed by Rohan Gupta be.net/rohangupta Printed by Aniruddh Arts, Mumbai Contents Preface i Acknowledgments iii Shanta Gokhale 1 Nadira Babbar 39 Jhelum Paranjape 67 Dolly Thakore 91 Preface We’ve heard it said that a woman’s work is never done. What they do not say is that women’s lives are also largely unrecorded. Women, and the work they do, slip through memory’s net leaving large gaps in our collective consciousness about challenges faced and mastered, discoveries made and celebrated, collaborations forged and valued. Combating this pervasive amnesia is not an easy task. This book is a beginning in another direction, an attempt to try and construct the professional lives of four of Mumbai’s women (where the discussion has ventured into the personal lives of these women, it has only been in relation to the professional or to their public images). And who better to attempt this construction than young people on the verge of building their own professional lives? In learning about the lives of inspiring professionals, we hoped our students would learn about navigating a world they were about to enter and also perhaps have an opportunity to reflect a little and learn about themselves. So four groups of students of the post-graduate diploma in Social Communications Media, SCMSophia’s class of 2014 set out to choose the women whose lives they wanted to follow and then went out to create stereoscopic views of them.

  • Syllabus of Arts Education
    SYLLABUS OF ARTS EDUCATION 2008 National Council of Educational Research and Training Sri Aurobindo Marg, New Delhi - 110016 Contents Introduction Primary • Objectives • Content and Methods • Assessment Visual arts • Upper Primary • Secondary • Higher Secondary Theatre • Upper Primary • Secondary • Higher Secondary Music • Upper Primary • Secondary • Higher Secondary Dance • Upper Primary • Secondary • Higher Secondary Heritage Crafts • Higher Secondary Graphic Design • Higher Secondary Introduction The need to integrate art s education in the formal schooling of our students now requires urgent attention if we are to retain our unique cultural identity in all its diversity and richness. For decades now, the need to integrate arts in the education system has been repeatedly debated, discussed and recommended and yet, today we stand at a point in time when we face the danger of lo osing our unique cultural identity. One of the reasons for this is the growing distance between the arts and the people at large. Far from encouraging the pursuit of arts, our education system has steadily discouraged young students and creative minds from taking to the arts or at best, permits them to consider the arts to be ‘useful hobbies’ and ‘leisure activities’. Arts are therefore, tools for enhancing the prestige of the school on occasions like Independence Day, Founder’s Day, Annual Day or during an inspection of the school’s progress and working etc. Before or after that, the arts are abandoned for the better part of a child’s school life and the student is herded towards subjects that are perceived as being more worthy of attention. General awareness of the arts is also ebbing steadily among not just students, but their guardians, teachers and even among policy makers and educationalists.

  • Social Concern in the Select Plays of Vijay Tendulkar
    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 22, Issue 2, Ver. V (Feb. 2017) PP 20-22 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Social Concern In The Select Plays Of Vijay Tendulkar Rishi A. Thakar Ph.D Research Scholar, Faculty of Social Science & Humanities (English), Pacific University (PAHERU), Udaipur, Rajasthan. Abstract :- Vijay Dhondopant Tendulkar (7th January 1928 – 19th May 2008) was a leading Indian playwright, movie and television writer, literary essayist, political journalist and social commentator primarily in Marathi. His plays have been translated and performed in many Indian languages. By providing insight into major social events and political upheavals during his life, he has become one of the strongest radical political voices in Indian literature in recent times. His early struggle for survival and living for some time in chawls in Mumbai provided him first-hand experience about the life of urban lower middle-class. Many of his plays derived inspiration from real life incidents or social upheavals, which provides clear light on harsh realities of the Indian society. Key words : Concern, Middle-class, Radical, Realities, Social, Upheavals Tendulkar is internationally known as a path-breaking theatre writer. He was the playwright of Rangayan, a theatre group which gave experimental Marathi theatre a completely new direction. He was among the handful of playwrights along with Girish Karnad, Habib Tanvir, Badal Sircar etc. who provided a new content and form to Indian theatre, writing about contemporary issues and themes in a novel way. In an interview with Sumit Saxena Tendulkar himself has said, I have not written about the hypothetical pain or created an imaginary world of sorrow.

  • Bravely Fought the Queen
    INTRODUCTION “My life is big. I am BIG and GENEROUS! Only the theatre deserves me” (Where Did I Leave My Purdah? 59) Theatre has always been a glorious star in the multi-dimensional and richly adorned cultural galaxy of India. But Indian English theatre has had a rather low key representation in this vibrant cultural arena. During the sixties and seventies European influence, especially of Pirandello, Brecht, Chekhov and others, gained prominence and helped Indian theatre express the fractured reality of the time. But the indigenous Indian theatre moved past regional boundaries to become really a polyglot phenomenon from the sixties onward, and use of English helped it cross the border of language, too. Nissim Ezekiel, Girish Karnad, Badal Sircar and Vijay Tendulkar were the chief architects of this aesthetic/cultural development. But except for a few plays written in English between the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and for the translations in English of the works of the above playwrights, the picture of Indian drama in English, however, appeared rather uninspiring. It was not until the eighties that English drama stepped out of the coterie of elitists and reached a wider audience. The efforts of playwrights like Nissim Ezekiel, Asif Currimbhoy, Shib K Kumar and others achieved occasional success, but failed to connect the audience with theatre’s full potential. With a younger group of 1 playwrights a more lasting change was visible, and the plays by Dina Mehta, Poli Sengupta, Manjula Padmanavan, and Tripurari Sharma found increasingly appreciative audience. It was with the appearance of Mahesh Dattani in the 1980s that Indian English drama gained a distinct identity.

  • The Treatment of Violence in Plays of Girish Karnad and Vijay Tendulkar
    International Journal of Multidisciplinary Approach and Studies ISSN NO:: 2348 – 537X The Treatment of Violence in Plays of Girish Karnad and Vijay Tendulkar Dr. Priyanka Pasari Research Project Fellow, Department of English, MJB Govt Girls PG College , Indore Violence can be defined as “the intentional use of physical force or power, threatened or actual, against oneself, another person, or against a group or community, which either results in or has a high likelihood of resulting in injury, death, psychological harm, mal- development, or deprivation. “Generally speaking, anything that is turbulent or excited in an injurious, damaging or destructive way, or presenting risk accordingly, may be described as violent, even if not signifying violence by a person and against a person. Globally, violence takes the lives of more than 1.6 million people annually. Violence often has lifelong consequences for victim’s physical as well as mental health and his social functioning and can slow down his economic and social development. It is a very significant, yet common, underrated and ignored factor of human existence. Violence, by and large, is a social phenomenon and we can prevent violence by understanding the social influences contributing to violence. Many a times, violence dominantly evolves as a direct result of social dogmas, and can be prevented by addressing this social phenomenon rather than by attempting to alter the individual. The causes of violent behavior in humans have often been a topic of research in psychology. It is a social phenomenon; the cause of violence cannot be attributed to a single factor. It is a complex phenomenon which occurs at different levels.

  • Publications
    PUBLICATIONS by Kumud Mehta Asst. Director. Programmes and Publications The Trustees of the National Centre decided, soon af~er its inception. to publish a Quarterly Journal to develop and improve the knowledge, understanding and practice of the arts. Its primary concern was to be music, dance, drama and, to some extent. film. In pursuance of this objective, the Quarterly Journal has been published every quarter since September 1972 and has built a solid readership over the years. The Journal is addressed to the adult cultivated reader, not necessarily to any specialist. but to one with a serious interest in the arts. It includes articles on the arts by distinguished authorities in the f ield from India and abroad. It has a News and Notes section which covers the major cultural events of the quarter. The Book Reviews examine important publications and the Record Reviews offer comments on major disc releases. The range of the Journal's coverage is noteworthy: in theatre, from early Sanskrit drama and the architecture of ancient koothambalam-s to contemporary and innovative attempts exploring 'the theatre of al~ possibilities'; in music, from an examination of an ancient Sanskrit text like the DatttJam to experiments in modern jazz; in dance, from an investigation into the tenets of the Natya Shastra and its many commentaries to glimpses into the present-day dance scene; in t he visual arts, from a study of the earliest stone sculptures and cave paintings to a survey of Expressionism and modern film posters. And besides all this, it encompasses a host of areas and movements, in time and space, leaving out very little of any significance.
