    LSE Review of Books: Book Review: Radio Empire: The BBC’s Eastern Service and the Emergence of the Global Anglophone Novel by Daniel Ryan Morse Page 1 of 4 Book Review: Radio Empire: The BBC’s Eastern Service and the Emergence of the Global Anglophone Novel by Daniel Ryan Morse In Radio Empire: The BBC’s Eastern Service and the Emergence of the Global Anglophone Novel, Daniel Ryan Morse draws attention to the dynamic intersections between literature and radio, exploring how the BBC’s Eastern Service, directed at educated Indian audiences, influenced the development of global Anglophone literature and literary broadcasting. Pushing against the siloed ways in which literary modernism is often studied, this fresh and ambitious book reveals the profound impact of the BBC’s Eastern Service on the printed and broadcast word, finds Diya Gupta. Radio Empire: The BBC’s Eastern Service and the Emergence of the Global Anglophone Novel. Daniel Ryan Morse. Columbia University Press. 2020. Find this book (affiliate link): In Indian writer Mulk Raj Anand’s novel The Big Heart (1945), student leader Satyapal listens to Azad Hind Radio during the Second World War. These broadcasts by political radical Subhas Chandra Bose were trying to influence Indian ‘hearts and minds’ against British imperialism by using German radio services from 1942 onwards. On the other hand, the poet Purun Singh Bhagat, another character in the same novel, declares that the English are ‘on the side of truth against falsehood’ (1). Yet, curiously, neither Bhagat nor any others in the novel are depicted as listening to the BBC.

Mathur Lalita Prasad Vidyarthi Triloki Nath Madan Shiv Raj Kumar Chopra Andre Beteille Gopala Sarana Conclusions Suggested Readings SIGNIFICANT KEYWORDS: Ethnology, History of Indian Anthropology, Anthropological History, Colonial Beginnings INTRODUCTION: THE GROWTH OF INDIAN ANTHROPOLOGY Manu’s Dharmashastra (2nd-3rd century BC) comprehensively studied Indian society of that period, based more on the morals and norms of social and economic life. Kautilya’s Arthashastra (324-296 BC) was a treatise on politics, statecraft and economics but also described the functioning of Indian society in detail. Megasthenes was the Greek ambassador to the court of Chandragupta Maurya from 324 BC to 300 BC. He also wrote a book on the structure and customs of Indian society. Al Biruni’s accounts of India are famous. He was a 1 Persian scholar who visited India and wrote a book about it in 1030 AD. Al Biruni wrote of Indian social and cultural life, with sections on religion, sciences, customs and manners of the Hindus. In the 17th century Bernier came from France to India and wrote a book on the life and times of the Mughal emperors Shah Jahan and Aurangzeb, their life and times.

  • Problematizing Verrier Elwin's View of the Tribal World
    Journal of the Department of English Vidyasagar University Vol. 12, 2014-2015 Problematizing Verrier Elwin’s View of The Tribal World Koutuk Dutta Archana Prasad in her book ‘Against Ecological Romanticism: Verrier Elwin and the Making of an Anti-Modern Tribal Identity’ ‘attempts to question the assumptions of Elwin’s ecological romanticism and challenges the unrealistic interpretation of tribal history on which they are based.’ Prasad argues that the tribal people of Central India depend on shifting cultivation and hunting and gathering only as a result of their marginalization into the forested tracts by the settlement of caste hindu cultivators in the Maratha period. The first essay is trying to unpack the myth of the ‘original inhabitant’ theory and its subsequent proposition that ‘the tribals were the inhabitants of forested areas originally and that their practices were of ancient origins.’ This essay concluded that indigenous people of central provinces were the victims of ‘two-stage’ colonization. First the fertile agricultural lands were captured by caste Hindu Maratha rulers. It also advances the theory of ‘instability and flux’ in pre-colonial India. The second phase of colonization was initiated by the ‘first direct intervention of the British in the region’. In this context she also points out that ‘the permanent settlement of agricultural and zamindarilands (1) by the British ensured that the movements of tribals between the highlands and plains were stopped forever. The second essay – ‘The Baiga and Its Eco-Logic Reinterpreting Verrier Elwin’s Cultural Ecology’ of the Baiga community was based more on ‘anthropological particularism’ than on any ‘historically valid notion of the community and change’.

  • COMMUNICATOR the Journal of Indian Institute of Mass Communication Volume LIII, Number-4, October-December, 2018 ISSN: 0588-8093 Message from Editor-In-Chief
    COMMUNICATOR The Journal of Indian Institute of Mass Communication Volume LIII, Number-4, October-December, 2018 ISSN: 0588-8093 Message From Editor-in-Chief At the outset, I wish to express my gratitude to all the academicians and scholars who participated and presented papers at the National Seminar on “The State of Indian Language Journalism and Training” organised by IIMC with support from Indian Council of Social Sciences and Research (ICSSR) on October, 29 and 30, 2018 at IIMC Campus. K. G. Suresh The conference was organised to Editor-in-Chief commemorate the silver jubilee of Director General, IIMC our Eastern Regional Campus at Dhenkanal, Odisha from where we started our first language journalism programme in Odia. In the last three years, we have given a major push to language journalism launching a Malayalam Journalism programme at our Kottayam, Kerala campus and Marathi Journalism programme at Amravati, Maharashtra campus. This apart, we have upgraded the Certificate programme in Urdu Journalism to a full fledged Diploma programme. We have even started a three months Advanced Certificate Programme in Sanskrit Journalism in collaboration with the Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri Rashtriya Sanskrit Vidyapeeth besides setting up the Department of Indian Language Journalism. Future plans include starting Hindi and Urdu Journalism programmes from our Jammu campus and Bangla from our Odisha campus. Apart from the papers presented at the conference, many eminent academicians have also contributed to this volume. I am confident that this special issue on the state of Indian language journalism and training would be a collector’s issue for both students and scholars as also media persons across the country and would help them in better understanding of the issues at stake and take requisite steps to improve the quality and standard of both language journalism and training at a time when language journalism is growing by leaps and bounds.
