  • Common Perspectives in Post-Colonial Indian and African Fiction in English
    COMMON PERSPECTIVES IN POST-COLONIAL INDIAN AND AFRICAN FICTION IN ENGLISH ABSTRACT THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF Bottor of IN ENGLISH LITERATURE BY AMINA KISHORE DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH ALIGARH MUSLIIVI UNIVERSITY ALIGARH 1995 Abstract The introduction of the special paper on Commonwealth Literature at the Post Graduate level and the paper called 'Novel other than British and American' at the Under Graduate level at AMU were the two major eventualities which led to this study. In the paper offered to the M A students, the grouping together of Literatures from atleast four of the Commonwealth nations into one paper was basically a makeshift arrangement. The objectives behind the formulation of such separate area as courses for special study remained vaguely described and therefore unjustified. The teacher and students, were both uncertain as to why and how to hold the disparate units together. The study emerges out of such immediate dilemma and it hopes to clarify certain problematic concerns related to the student of the Commonwealth Literature. Most Commonwealth criticism follows either (a) a justificatory approach; or (b) a confrontationist approach; In approach (a) usually a defensive stand is taken by local critics and a supportive non-critical, indulgent stand is adopted by the Western critic. In both cases, the issue of language use, nomenclature and the event cycle of colonial history are the routes by which the argument is moved. Approach (b) invariably adopts the Post-Colonial Discourse as its norm of presenting the argument. According to this approach, the commonness of Commonwealth Literatures emerges from the fact that all these Literatures have walked ••• through the fires of enslavement and therefore are anguished, embattled units of creative expression.

  • The Trauma of the Loss of Identity and Anguish of Alienation: an Appraisal of the Indian Writing in English
    The Asian Conference on Literature & Librarianship 2013 Official Conference Proceedings Osaka, Japan The Trauma of the Loss of Identity and Anguish of Alienation: An Appraisal of the Indian Writing in English Shruti Sinha Management Development Institute of Singapore, Singapore 0448 The Asian Conference on Literature & Librarianship 2013 Official Conference Proceedings 2013 iafor The International Academic Forum www.iafor.org 248 The Asian Conference on Literature & Librarianship 2013 Official Conference Proceedings Osaka, Japan This paper explores alienation as a global problem in reference to Indian Writing in English. However, before such a discussion is initiated, it would be appropriate to explain the term Indian Writing in English. The term really applies to the writings of those authors who are by birth, ancestry and nationality Indians, which are written in English and which gives the aroma of Indian culture, ethos, homeland and geography, which are peopled by those men who are either Indians or of Indian origin, who either live in India or in any other part of the world. This paper, in particular, deals with Indian Fiction in English, the domain of which includes such diasporic writers as Salman Rushdie, Vikram Seth, Kiran Desai, Jhumpa Lahiri, Amitava Ghosh and many others. Most of our Indian –English authors have been globe trotters or educated in the west. R.S Pathak has rightly said; The Indian writers in English lose their sense of identity -both personal and national-and feel alienated in their making frantic efforts to seek, organize and affirm that identity. In many cases not only the novelists but also the characters in their novels face what psychologists call identity crisis.1 The Indian Fiction in English started with Rajmohan’s Wife written by Bankimchandra Chatterjee in 1864 and in its voyage of more than 150 years has witnessed such names as Mulk Raj Anand, R.K.

  • Indian Novels in English: the Rise and Popularity
    INDIAN NOVELS IN ENGLISH: THE RISE AND POPULARITY ANURAG PANDEY Research Scholar, Department of English, University of Allahabad. (UP) INDIA Indian novels in English have generated a considerable amount of interest both in India and in English-speaking countries, particularly during India’s post-liberalization period since 1991. For India, this period has seen unparalleled consumption of global goods and exposure to international media, and has resulted in Indian writers writing in English (including writers of Indian origin) catching the attention of the Western world like never before. The nineteen nineties proved a significant period for the Indian novel written in English. This period saw some of the writers making a successful debut in creative writing as novelists and winning prestigious international award like Booker Prize and commonwealth Writers Prize. This period witnessed further consolidation of the ground won by the novel at the cost of other genres. More than the eighties, it is in the nineties that readers and critics paid their undivided attention to the Indian novel written in English. Referring to this Nanavati and Kar remark:“It is perhaps the only form of writing that instantly acquires a world-wide visibility as it is created” (14). Not only in India but all over the world, the novel is more read, more appreciated and even more marketed than poetry, “its traditional rival”. Significantly enough, at various conferences of Indian Association for Studies in Contemporary Literature, held in various universities of India, the majority of papers submitted were about the Indian English novel, especially the novel in the nineties.

  • Introduction Arun Joshi: an Artist in the Making
    INTRODUCTION ARUN JOSHI: AN ARTIST IN THE MAKING Bindu Ann Philip “The Routes of the Rootless: A Study of the Novels and Short Stories of Arun Joshi” Thesis. Department of English,Vimala College Thrissur , University of Calicut, 2007 CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION ARUN JOSHI: AN ARTIST IN THE MAKING The Novel and the Short Story down the Years Among the various literary expressions, the latest and the most dominant form in the twentieth century is the novel. Elastic and irregular, the novel is concerned directly with life, with men and women, their joys and sorrows. As a novel deals with life, one naturally expects from the novelist, the impression life made upon him. Thus, the emergence of the novel as a major literary form is mainly responsible for the increased importance given to realism in all forms of literary art. The novel clearly envisages the snappy human lives and meets the needs of the modern man more boldly than poetry or drama. It reflects both the constructive and the disintegrating phases of contemporary society. It is commonly agreed that the novel is the most acceptable way of embodying experiences and ideas in the context of our time. It is not only the single literary form to compete for popularity with the television and the radio, but also the only one in which, a great deal of distinguished work is being done the world over. The history of the novel is difficult to trace, because of the innumerable novelists on the way. But there does exist a cogent string of continuity between the oldest and the latest forms of the novel.

This collection brought one opinion forward that it may be that Larkin changed his themes, superficially yet his style did not develop. His style all through the years may be termed as static and consistent; as there is no radical development. In a conversation with Ian Hamilton, he defined the extent of his development as far as he could see it, as: “I suppose I’m less likely to write a really bad poem now, but possibly equally less like to write a really poem now, but possibly less likely to write a really good one. If you call that development, I’ve developed.”1 The poems of The Whitsun Weddings are more varied and subtle than Larkin’s previous poems.

  • About Stream of Consciousness
    9ROXPH,,,,VVXH,,$SULO,661 About Stream of Consciousness Alka Dutt Lecturer University of Delhi India Various terms and styles are used to convey meaning of the written text to its reader. There are many literary devices that have been used for centuries by authors, and these literary devices have certainly enriched their writings. These devices maintain curiosity of the reader, keep expectations alive, create suspense and also manage to astound them at the end of the work. Special terms are awarded to characters to give unique identity to a particular character. Many writers use allegory to make a person, place or setting stand for something totally different from how it has been represented in the piece of writing. Allusion is another popular device with which a reader can identify his previous knowledge with. This knowledge could be that from history or mythology etc. Ballads were songs sung in praise of heroic deeds, they even narrated tragic tales and at times they entertained listeners with mythological stories. KWWSZZZLMHOOKFRP 9ROXPH,,,,VVXH,,$SULO,661 Stream of Consciousness is a popular literary device used by Indian authors writing in English. This method of narrating a fictional story is also referred to as ‘interior monologue’. By monologue we understand that while one person speaks all others listen. When one communicates with oneself in his thoughts, all his conversation is with himself. In his book The Principles of Psychology, William James used the term for the first time. From 1890 till date, the word has been used time and again by writers from all over the world.
