The collection is limited in many ways, not the least of which being that no woman writer has been included, and that it contains only a baker's dozen stories (if we count Bonophool's micro-stories collectively as one )-a number pitifully small considering the vast and prolific field of authors and stories a translator has at his or her disposal.

    Changing Facets of Myths in Modern Times

    © 2017 IJRAR July 2017, Volume 4, Issue 3 www.ijrar.org (E-ISSN 2348-1269, P- ISSN 2349-5138) Changing Facets of Myths in Modern Times Ravish Kumar Assistant Teacher D. N. (+2) School, Gola Road, Muzaffarpur The entire history of human existence has been witnessing men and women who through their endeavour have risen to such great heights that they have become icons or symbols of some or the other values. Such icons or symbols have been attracting writers through ages and much has been written about such icons. It is evident that male and female icons were created by the Sanatana patriarchal hierarchical Hindu Society. Our fiction writers, generally have been subscribing to this myth and exploiting its possible variants and in doing so have been keeping the myth alive. The woman is mother, taking care of her children, patient, self-sacrificing, abundant in her gifts like the mother earth: the woman is Grihalaksmi, symbolising the prosperity of Home: she is Sahadharmini identifying herself with the dharma of her husband, her master: she is Sati, her life begins and ends with her husband's: she is Kshetra, and open field for her master's use; she is Sakti, the primal source of energy. The moment the woman is seen to lead her own life, to act in conformity with her own nature and not according to the specifications of the role assigned to her, she loses favour with us, she is damned. Here is the genesis of the feminine mythical icons. On the basis of different philosophical and religious streams, different rituals and social mores, it may be claimed that there have been two cultures in operation in India: one characterised by Purusa Pradhanya, the other by Prakriti Pradhanya; in one the cosmic principle is conceived in terms of the male and in the other, in terms of the female.
  • Wandering Writers in the Himalaya: Contesting Narratives and Renunciation in Modern Hindi Literature

    Wandering Writers in the Himalaya: Contesting Narratives and Renunciation in Modern Hindi Literature

    Cracow Indological Studies vol. XVII (2015) 10.12797/CIS.17.2015.17.04 Nicola Pozza [email protected] (University of Lausanne, Switzerland) Wandering Writers in the Himalaya: Contesting Narratives and Renunciation in Modern Hindi Literature Summary: The Himalayan setting—especially present-day Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand—has fascinated many a writer in India. Journeys, wanderings, and sojourns in the Himalaya by Hindi authors have resulted in many travelogues, as well as in some emblematic short stories of modern Hindi literature. If the environment of the Himalaya and its hill stations has inspired the plot of several fictional writ- ings, the description of the life and traditions of its inhabitants has not been the main focus of these stories. Rather, the Himalayan setting has primarily been used as a nar- rative device to explore and contest the relationship between the mountain world and the intrusive presence of the external world (primarily British colonialism, but also patriarchal Hindu society). Moreover, and despite the anti-conformist approach of the writers selected for this paper (Agyeya, Mohan Rakesh, Nirmal Verma and Krishna Sobti), what mainly emerges from an analysis of their stories is that the Himalayan setting, no matter the way it is described, remains first and foremost a lasting topos for renunciation and liberation. KEYWORDS: Himalaya, Hindi, fiction, wandering, colonialism, modernity, renunci- ation, Agyeya, Nirmal Verma, Mohan Rakesh, Krishna Sobti. Introduction: Himalaya at a glance The Himalaya has been a place of fascination for non-residents since time immemorial and has attracted travellers, monks and pilgrims and itinerant merchants from all over Asia and Europe.

COPYRIGHT FIMT 2020 Page 1 BA ENGLISH (HON) SEM IV PAPER CODE 202 LITERARY CRITICISM Q1. What are Aristotle's views on mimesis? Ans: Mimesis is a Greek term that means imitation. The first step in understanding Aristotle's account of mimesis is remembering that he spent many years studying at Plato's Academy. In Platonic thought, the things we encounter via our senses, the phenomena, are imitations of ideal forms. Art (whether poetry or painting), in imitating the phenomena, is thus merely an imitation of an imitation. Plato also divides imitation by medium (words, paint, marble, etc.). He further divides the verbal techniques of imitation into pure imitation or mimesis, in which an actor impersonates a character on stage, and diegesis, or narration, in which a narrator speaks in the third person about events. Epic is a mixed form, using both impersonation and narration when performed by a rhapsode. Plato tends to condemn imitation as degrading, because (1) impersonation can inculcate bad or non-rational habits and (2) because it focuses attention on mere phenomena. Aristotle accepts the Platonic distinction between mimesis and diegesis, but finds both valuable as modes of training and educating emotions.
