Somewhere along these lines we’ve been told to write the unwritten, capture moments forgotten in the noise of market-driven media and above all, to ask questions whose answers might leave us uncomfortable. After two decades of being taught to toe the line, abide by the way things have always been, and to read no more or less than what was prescribed; this year we were lead to the scribbles in the margins. We were expected to look closely at the intricate patterns that underlie the world around us; we learned to give details that previously Saffected us only cursorily, importance. We stopped to take in the stories that illustrate the streets and lives of Mumbai and beyond, stories that made us feel a fondness for the lopsided doodles that make our everyday that much more real. This year, Marginalia is more than just writing in the margin; we question its very position, its erasure, its existence. Then sometimes we draw a new line from our excursions into the outside world. It was an exciting year at SCM, a year that has been an eye opener for most of us. Beginning with the Mumbai treasure hunt, we got to explore Mumbai as we never have. We also got the opportunity to meet and converse with alumnae like Leena Yadav and Sonora Jha, who have done exceptional work in their respective fields. A big event that took place was an Indian Media Economy conference panel which discussed social transactions in the media economy, with eminent speakers like Sidharth Bhatia (Co-founder, The Wire) and Raj Gupta (CEO, Lowe Lintas). The students were introduced to many films through the year, with a documentary workshop as well as the films made by Anand Patwardhan, whom we got to question face-to-face. His films shed light on the issues of communal violence taking place in India. We also had an open discussion on the politics of America and India, and the radical feminist movement with Professor Robert Jensen, from the University of Texas at Austin. Chandan Gowda’s powerful talk on his latest book, “The Way I See It: A Gauri Lankesh Reader” gave us an insight on Gauri Lankesh and her uncompromising work. THIS Read about the economics of mental health, and about how the members of the LGBTQ community struggle with threats to their mental health; we YEAR, investigate whether toilets are accessible to women in public spaces, and the MARGINALIA unaddressed issues of Northeast India. Pay heed to the opinion of the women IS MORE THAN who speak in the age-old debate of home makers v/s working women. Be JUST WRITING enthralled by one of the first female ADs in Bollywood, and learn more about IN THE MARGIN; the railway unions and an annual chikoo festival! WE QUESTION ITS VERY POSITION, Through Marginalia 2018, we attempt to document and give space to ITS ERASURE, the inscriptions that deserve more notice. Let us take you through the ITS EXISTENCE. bibliography of the world as we see it, one page at a time.

  • Ajeeb Aadmi—An Introduction Ismat Chughtai, Sa'adat Hasan Manto
    Ajeeb Aadmi—An Introduction I , Sa‘adat Hasan Manto, Krishan Chandar, Rajinder Singh Bedi, Kaifi Azmi, Jan Nisar Akhtar, Majrooh Sultanpuri, Ali Sardar Jafri, Majaz, Meeraji, and Khawaja Ahmed Abbas. These are some of the names that come to mind when we think of the Progressive Writers’ Movement and modern Urdu literature. But how many people know that every one of these writers was also involved with the Bombay film indus- try and was closely associated with film directors, actors, singers and pro- ducers? Ismat Chughtai’s husband Shahid Latif was a director and he and Ismat Chughtai worked together in his lifetime. After Shahid’s death Ismat Chughtai continued the work alone. In all, she wrote scripts for twelve films, the most notable among them ◊iddµ, Buzdil, Sån® kµ ≤µ∞y≥, and Garm Hav≥. She also acted in Shyam Benegal’s Jun∑n. Khawaja Ahmed Abbas made a name for himself as director and producer for his own films and also by writing scripts for some of Raj Kapoor’s best- known films. Manto, Krishan Chandar and Bedi also wrote scripts for the Bombay films, while all of the above-mentioned poets provided lyrics for some of the most alluring and enduring film songs ever to come out of India. In remembering Kaifi Azmi, Ranjit Hoskote says that the felicities of Urdu poetry and prose entered the consciousness of a vast, national audience through the medium of the popular Hindi cinema; for which masters of Urdu prose, such as Sadat [sic] Hasan Manto, wrote scripts, while many of the Progressives, Azmi included, provided lyrics.

  • Modernism and the Progressive Movement in Urdu Literature
    American International Journal of Contemporary Research Vol. 2 No. 3; March 2012 Modernism and the Progressive Movement in Urdu Literature Sobia Kiran Asst. Professor English Department LCWU, Lahore, Pakistan Abstract The paper aims at exploring salient features of Progressive Movement in Urdu literature and taking into account points of comparison with Modernism in Europe. The paper explores evolution of Progressive Movement over the years and traces influence of European Modernism on it. Thesis statement: The Progressive Movement in Urdu literature was tremendously influenced by European Modernism. 1. Modernism The term Modernism is used to distinguish the literature that developed out of the First World War. Modernism deliberately broke with Western traditions of certainty. It came into being as they were collapsing. It challenged all the old modes. Important precursors of Modernism were Nietzsche, Freud and Marx who in different degrees rejected certainties in religion, philosophy, psychology and politics. They came to distrust the stability and order offered in earlier literary works. It broke with literary conventions. Like any new movement it rebelled against the old. It was nihilistic and tended to believe in its own self sufficiency. “Readers were now asked to look into themselves, to establish their real connections with the world and to ignore the rules of religion and society. Modernism wants therefore to break the old connections, because it believes that these are artificial and exploitative…” (Smith, P.xxi) The people are provoked to think and decide for themselves. They are expected to reconstruct their moralities. The concern for social welfare continued. “Every period has its dominant religion and hope…and “socialism” in a vague and undefined sense was the hope of the early twentieth century.”(Smith xiii) Marxism suffered an eclipse after the Second World War.

  • Rajit Kapur, Shernaz Patel on Performing 'Love Letters' at Delhi's Old World Theatre Festival
    Oct, 08 2017 Rajit Kapur, Shernaz Patel on performing 'Love Letters' at Delhi's Old World Theatre Festival Fifteen plays. Ten days. The 2017 edition of the Old World Theatre Festival (OWTF) that kick-started on 6 October 2017 at the India Habitat Centre, New Delhi, has theatre lovers rejoicing at the return of some of the most prestigious productions on stage. In an exclusive chat with us, veteran thespians Rajit Kapur and Shernaz Patel spoke about one of their longest- running plays — Love Letters (directed by Rahul da Cunha), the relevance of handwritten letters in a digital world, and their memories of working with one of the stalwarts of Indian theatre, Tom Alter. Love At A Click Letters are passé. The ink doesn’t flow freely, and emotions are bunched up in 140 characters or less. Does a play on love letters have any meaning, then? For Rajit Kapur, love letters are precious. “Letters have become a novelty in today’s age. If someone receives a letter, it becomes really special and cherished by the person. The value of a letter has really gone up,” he says. Shernaz Patel too endorses the magic of handwritten letters and says, “I think love letters matter now more than ever. In an age where people make up and break up on SMS, it’s so important to remember the absolute beauty and power of words. We all love receiving cards and notes that we can keep forever... that don’t get erased with the click of a button.” Rajit and Shernaz perform Love Letters Oct, 08 2017 Love Letters Sans Letters AR Gurney’s epistolary play Love Letters, which premiered in 1988, has had several adaptations over the years — Javed Siddiqui’s Tumhari Amrita (starring Shabana Azmi and Farooq Sheikh, directed by Feroz Abbas Khan) being one of the most popular.

    Notes Introduction 1. Abha Dawesar, Babyji (New Delhi: Penguin, 2005), p. 1. 2. There are pitfalls when using terms like “gay,” “lesbian,” or “homosexual” in India, unless they are consonant with “local” identifications. The prob- lem of naming has been central in the “sexuality debates,” as will shortly be delineated. 3.
