Nepali Intellectuals in Exile: the History of Nepali Printing in 19Th- and 20Th-Century Benares
JOURNAL OF SOUTH ASIAN INTELLECTUAL HISTORY 3 (2020) 34–59 brill.com/saih Nepali Intellectuals in Exile: The History of Nepali Printing in 19th- and 20th-Century Benares Alaka Atreya Chudal | ORCID: 0000-0002-7308-7384 Department of South Asian, Tibetan and Buddhist Studies, University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria [email protected] Abstract Restrictions on the freedom of speech and press, along with the unavailability of com- petitive printing solutions in Nepal under the Rana regime, caused the centre of grav- ity of scholarly activities to shift to India. A number of Nepali intellectuals, who came from a variety of backgrounds and had various reasons for having migrated to India, were involved in writing and publishing starting by the end of the 19th century. In those days Benares had few if any peers among Indian cities as a centre of local tra- ditions of education and Sanskrit learning, and as a spiritual, economic and literary destination for Nepalis. Benares, which occupies a special place in Nepali history for its immense contribution to the country’s cultural, social, literary and political evolution, was also the main hub of Nepali print entrepreneurs. This article will delve into early such entrepreneurs and an array of Nepali printing activities in Benares before 1950. Keywords print history – Nepali print history – Nepali intellectuals in the 19th and 20th centuries – Nepalis in Benares – Nepali migration to India Introductory Remarks Nepal has a long and prestigious tradition of Sanskrit scholarship. Much like India, it too has a tradition of learned Hindus from the earliest historic period. -

Creating a Brave Nepali Nation in British India: the Rhetoric of J¯Ati Improvement, Rediscovery of Bhanubhakta and the Writing of B¯Ir History
Creating a Brave Nepali Nation in British India: The Rhetoric of J¯ati Improvement, Rediscovery of Bhanubhakta and the Writing of B¯ir History Pratyoush Onta Introduction Reading some of the literature produced on Nepal by academics since 1990, one gets the impression that the country is going through the pangs of birth.1 In fact an article by the Nepali sociologist Saubhagya Shah is entitled "Throes of a Fledgling Nation" (1993). The idea that Nepal is a "fledgling nation" in the 1990s comes as a shock to those sensibilities long used to years of quasi-scholastic drills celebrating the ancestry of the Nepali nation. Yet a sense of an identity crisis pervades much of this literature, suggesting that Nepal in the 1990s has become, in the words of one Nepali historian, a country where "the search is on for a single cultural identity that would make Nepal a nation-state rather than merely a state" (P. Sharma 1992:7). A fear that this search entails a "hitting at the very basis upon which Nepal was unified" two centuries ago (Raj 1993:30) and will lead to "destabilization" or "national disintegration" prompts these observers to end their analyses in a prescriptive mode. "The State of Nepal," writes Sharma, "needs to formulate policies relating to minority languages and culture, secure them their new rights in these respects, and lay down a democratic and equitable basis for political power-sharing by ethnic minorities" (1992:9). William Fisher, an American anthropologist who has been doing research on the politics of ethnicity in Nepal, suggests that national unity in Nepal "will come from embracing diversity rather than by imposing uniformity" (1993). -

Between Nepal and Canada: in Conversation with Pushpa Raj Acharya, Edmonton’S 2013-14 Writer-In-Exile
Between Nepal and Canada: In Conversation with Pushpa Raj Acharya, Edmonton’s 2013-14 Writer-in-Exile Asma Sayed Pushpa Raj Acharya is a poet from Nepal now living in Edmonton, Canada. He is currently a member of the Borderlines Writers Circle/Writer-in-Exile programme for the year 2013-14. His poems have been published in Canada, Japan, India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan. His poetry collections include Dream Catcher (2012) and Chayakal (2006). Chayakal or ‘The Phantom Time’ is a long Nepali poem that explores connections among myth, history, and literature in the context of Nepalese civil war (1996-2006) during which the communist revolutionaries fought with the state. Influenced by T. S. Eliot’s idea of paying tribute to literary tradition, and his poem ‘The Wasteland’, Chayakal plays with some canonical Nepali works of fiction and poetry. Dream Catcher is composed of poems on nature and journeys – both inward and outward. From 1999 onward, Acharya was a part of a project called ‘Conservation Poetry Movement,’ which included travelling to villages across Nepal. The project involved a group of poets writing and reading poems with the villagers. Acharya has performed poems in the ancient streets of the Kathmandu valley. Currently, he is a PhD candidate in Comparative Literature at the University of Alberta in Canada. In the following conversation, Acharya talks about Nepali literature and its place in world literature, and his journey as a writer. This interview was conducted face to face in October 2013; the conversation was then extended via e-mails from November 2013 to April 2014.
