  • Pen, Pain and Poem: Feminist-Humanist Works of Sarup
    JAC : A Journal Of Composition Theory ISSN : 0731-6755 Pen, Pain and Poem: Feminist-Humanist works of Sarup Dhruv Dr.Khevana Desai Assistant professor, Department of Sociology, Mithibai College of Arts, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India Email: [email protected] Abstract Sarup Dhruv, a voice from Gujarat was born in an independent nation (born a year after India attained freedom) and ultimately became the voice of the ones who never tasted freedom. She is not just the voice of the neglected but a voice most neglected in the mainstream and standardized Gujarati literature. She is the one who experienced marginalization in the literary world and yet never ceased to worry, write or work for every single strata of the marginalized society. Her poems are an emblem of passion with which she has moved in the world of Gujarati literature like wings on fire. Her works are a reflection of her activism filled with social compassion, social work and ideas of empowerment of women, dalit and other marginalised sections that reshaped her vocabulary, insight and perception. For her poetries of protest could not and should not be confined to rigid „forms‟ with stereotyped content. It should be the voice of the voiceless and not a song for applauses and appraisal. Her poems and other writings are denoted as fearless, „free‟ and fiery or rather for the mainstream literary world „a deviance from the established‟. The paper attempts to highlight and analyse the path breaking and unconventional contribution of Sarup Dhruv not just in Gujarati literature in particular but in Indian women‟s writings at large.

Modi is a trendsetter Gujarati playwright. The attitude, mood and taste of Gujarati readers is taken into the consideration by this playwright. He has received great appreciation as a dramatist and poet in Gujarati Literature from readers and critics. He also has remained controversial literary figure because of his rebellious attitude and experimental nature. He has developed his own vision to see the themes with a unique perspective. Drama is not only literary art but it is also performing art. One Act Play is a modern form of drama which required more keen dramatic abilities. It is one of the most accepted performing arts, which has fascinated dramatists and spectators both. It is having great scope for creativity and social reform. Modi took the opportunity to work on it too. In this paper researcher has focused on his two recent one act plays to study Modi as a One Act Playwright. Bhasmasur: Chinu Modi’s one act play Bhasmasur deals with the myth of Bhasmasu who was enchanted and was ultimatelyburned to death by Vishnu incarnated as enchantress.

  • SACRIFICE, AHIMSA, and VEGETARIANISM: POGROM at the DEEP END of NON-VIOLENCE Volume I
    SACRIFICE, AHIMSA, AND VEGETARIANISM: POGROM AT THE DEEP END OF NON-VIOLENCE Volume I A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Parvis Ghassem-Fachandi January 2006 ©2006 Parvis Ghassem-Fachandi SACRIFICE, AHIMSA, AND VEGETARIANISM: POGROM AT THE DEEP END OF NON-VIOLENCE Parvis Ghassem-Fachandi, PhD. Cornell University 2006 This dissertation explores the relation of ahimsa (non-violence) and vegetarianism to sacrificial logic in post-independence Ahmedabad. It follows the transformation of ahimsa--from a protection of the sacrifier against the revenge of the animal victim; to a doctrine of renunciation, self-reform, and prohibition of animal sacrifice; to Gandhi’s famous tool for nonviolent resistance to colonial domination; and finally, to the ritualization of violence itself in the organized persecution of minorities in a secular state. Central Gujarat is often called the “laboratory of Hindutva.” Hindutva offers an interpretation of “Hinduism” as a historical subject threatened by Islam and Christianity. It portrays Hindus as victims of Muslim barbarism, slaughtered and humiliated, butchered and raped, and demands a response that redefines the relation of violence to ahimsa. Its electoral success can be traced to a claim to unify Adivasi, lower, and intermediary caste groups with the Savarnas (high castes) as “Hindus” in opposition to Muslims and Christians, who are positioned as foreigners. As ethno-religious identifications have become integral to representation in a secular democratic system, traditional practices relating to diet and worship are simultaneously reconfigured. This research investigates the embodiment and experience of disgust among members of upwardly mobile castes, who are encouraged both to externalize their own low caste practices and to distance themselves from Muslims and Christians in new ways.

    [VOLUME 5 I ISSUE 1 I JAN. – MARCH 2018] e ISSN 2348 –1269, Print ISSN 2349-5138 http://ijrar.com/ Cosmos Impact Factor 4.236 Reflection of the Dalit sufferings in the works of Harish Mangalam Dr. Sunita B. Niamavat Professor in English Shri N.P. College of Computer Studies and Mgt., Kadi, Gujarat. Received Dec. 08, 2017 Accepted Jan. 14, 2018 ABSTRACT The word ‘Dalit’ means Crushed ‘Oppressed’ or ‘exploited’. Caste system in India created discrimination and suffering among the low caste people. Manusmriti categorized the four main castes Brahmin, Kshatriya, Vaishya and Shudra. Caste is different from class. it is not based on economic condition but on birth or parentage. The Dalit movement started in Maharashtra during 13th and 14th century. Chokhamela was Mahar saint who wrote Abhangas. His poems do not Express protest but equality of all human beings. Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar was the true champion of Dalit movement. He was the great intellectual who rebelled against the evils of the caste system in Hinduism. He criticized ancient Hindu scriptures that glorified caste system. Dalit literature in India has been profoundly influenced by Ambedkar’s anti-caste views. Dalit literature is a true literature that presents human inequalities and injustice. Dalit literature originated mainly in Maharashtra, In Gujarat also, Dalits suffered a lot. Gujarati Dalit poetry has also carved its place in Gujarati literature. However, Gujarati friction has reflected the sufferings of the Dalit vividly and realistically. Harish Mangalam is a prolific Gujarati writer who has penned many books of poetry, fiction and criticism. His novels ‘Tirad’ and ‘Aganjal’ present rebellious spirit of Dalits who raised their voice against injustice and inequality.

  • Region, Religion, and Violence in Postcolonial Gujarat Yogesh
    Legacies of Colonial History: Region, Religion, and Violence in Postcolonial Gujarat Yogesh Chandrani Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Yogesh Chandrani All rights reserved ABSTRACT Legacies of Colonial History: Region, Religion and Violence in Postcolonial Gujarat Yogesh Chandrani This dissertation takes the routine marginalization and erasure of Muslim presence in the contemporary social and political life of the western Indian state of Gujarat as an entry point into a genealogy of Gujarati regionalism. Through a historical anthropology of the reconfiguration of the modern idea of Gujarat, I argue that violence against religious minorities is an effect of both secular nation-building and of religious nationalist mobilization. Given this entanglement, I suggest that we rethink the oppositional relationship between religion and the secular in analyzing violence against Muslims in contemporary Gujarat. The modern idea of Gujarat, I further argue, cannot be grasped without taking into consideration how local conceptions of region and of religion were fundamentally altered by colonial power. In particular, I suggest that the construction of Islam as inessential and external to the idea of Gujarat is a legacy bequeathed by colonialism and its forms of knowledge. The transmutation of Gujarati Muslims into strangers, in other words, occurred simultaneously with the articulation of the modern idea of Gujarat in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. I focus in particular on the role of nineteenth-century regional history-writing, in which the foundational role of Islam was de-emphasized, in what I call the making of a regional tradition.
