    ASIATIC, VOLUME 9, NUMBER 2, DECEMBER 2015 Two Poems by Kedarnath Singh1 Translated from Hindi By H.S. Komalesha2 Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, India The River Walk slowly, She’ll touch you; Run fast, she’ll trail, the river. Take her with you, she’ll go, anywhere you wish, even to the junkyard; leave her, in that dark, escaping the gaze of million stars she’ll secrete, quietly, a whole world in a tiny snail. Live where you want, the truth is, even on hard days of any season, you’ll find a river that loves you; the river that isn’t there now, in the house you live, will be there, somewhere may be under a mat, or a vase, flowing quietly, all by herself. 1 Kedarnath Singh (1934-) is a highly accomplished poet in Hindi. He was the recipient of the Jnanpith Award in 2013, the most prestigious literary recognition in India. His Akaal main Saras (Cranes in the Drought) received the Sahitya Akademi Award in 1989. He has also received the Hindi Akademi Award and the coveted "Kumaran Asan" (Kerala) Award. 2 H.S. Komalesha is the author of Issues of Identity in Indian English Fiction published by Peter Lang, Oxford. Sahitya Akademi, the Academy of Letters in India has published two of his English translations: Anupama Niranjana (2008) and Rashtrakavi Kuvempu (2014). He is now working as Associate Professor of English in the Department of Humanities and Social Sciences, Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, India.

  • Interpreting a Culinary Montage: Food in Jhumpa Lahiri's
    ASIATIC, VOLUME 11, NUMBER 2, DECEMBER 2017 Diana Dimitrova and Thomas de Bruijn, eds. Imagining Indianness: Cultural Identity and Literature. Basingstoke, UK and New York: Palgrave Macmillan, 2017. 166 pp. ISBN 978-3-319-41014-2. In the introduction to Imagining Indianness: Cultural Identity and Literature, Diana Dimitrova reminds us of the fluid nature of Indianness, shaped and defined by culture(s), history and society. As she presents ideas of “bhāratīytā (Indianness), Hindutva (Hindudom/Hinduness)” in this opening chapter, Dimitrova invites the reader to consider Indianness in a “non-essentializing sense, as pluralistic, open- ended and dynamic concept that is inclusive of all religions, cultural and socio- political traditions and currents in South Asia and beyond” (4). Following the introduction, the edited collection is divided into two sections: “Indianness, Literature and Culture: A Critical Perspective” and “Indian Cultural Identity and the Crisis of Modernity: Reworking of Myth and Tradition.” Both sections are comprehensive, covering poetry, drama and literature and in turn, they discuss Sanskrit aesthetics, poetics, languages, style, negative or challenging representations of “Indianness,” folk and desi theatrical traditions, all through the overarching theme of “Imagining Indianness.” Through his analysis of Indian poets Dhumil, Kedarnath Singh, Lankesh, Ravivarma, Malika Amar Sheikh, Pravin Gadhvi and Raghuvir Sahay, K. Satchidanandan explores how the poets he argues “problematize the concept of India in order to fight its oppressive implications and to re-contextualize poetry in order to build a free democratic society in the country” (19). The plurality of Indianness manifest not only in the Indian languages in which these works of poetry are crafted but also in the experiences recounted in these works is foregrounded in Satchidanandan’s chapter as he argues against the idea of “a standard Indian literature, Indian culture or Indian character” (33).

  • Jnanpith Award
    Jnanpith Award JNANPITH AWARD The Jnanpith Award is an Indian literary award presented annually by the Bharatiya Jnanpith to an author for their "outstanding contribution towards literature". Instituted in 1961, the award is bestowed only on Indian writers writing in Indian languages included in the Eighth Schedule to the Constitution of India and English, with no posthumous conferral. The Bharatiya Jnanpith, a research and cultural institute founded in 1944 by industrialist Sahu Shanti Prasad Jain, conceived an idea in May 1961 to start a scheme "commanding national prestige and of international standard" to "select the best book out of the publications in Indian languages". The first recipient of the award was the Malayalam writer G. Sankara Kurup who received the award in 1965 for his collection of poems, Odakkuzhal (The Bamboo Flute), published in 1950. In 1976, Bengali novelist Ashapoorna Devi became the first woman to win the award and was honoured for the 1965 novel Pratham Pratisruti (The First Promise), the first in a trilogy.
