The data were also eross-cheeked for patterns of isomorphy/polysemy, to see ifwe can leam anything about the development ofthe forms we da find in the languages. The results ofthe survey indicate that although a11 Tibeto-Bunnan languages have developed some sort of relation marking, none of the markers ean be reconstrueted to the oldest stage of the family. Looking at the patterns of isomorphy or polysemy, we find there are regularities to the patterns we find, and on the basis of these regularities we can make assurne that the path of development most probably followed the markedness/prototypicality clines: the locative and ablative use would have arose first and then were extended to the more abstract cases.

  • UNIT 1 - Women’S Writing – SHS5012
    SCHOOL OF SCIENCE AND HUMANITIES DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH UNIT 1 - Women’s Writing – SHS5012 0 1. Juliet Mitchell, “Femininity, Narrative and Psychoanalysis” In Juliet Mitchell’s essay, “Femininity, Narrative and Psychoanalysis,” Mitchell examines the role that the novel has played in our capitalist society for women and the influence of psychoanalytic motives for writing the novel to prove that the novel was, and perhaps still is, the defining element of women in our society. Mitchell’s essay addresses more than a single topic. All of her topics are link together, though, as Mitchell places each topic as a constraint around the identity of the women in society. In terms of language, the woman is constrained because language is a masculine language. In a capitalist society, the woman is constrained by the bourgeois roles expected of women. And finally, and perhaps most importantly, from a psychoanalytic perspective, the woman is constrained by the resulting masculine or not-masculine society derived from pre-Oedipal childhood (I think). The combination of these constraints ways down upon the women and results in a feminist movement that simultaneously rejects masculine society, while adhering to its rules. The novel is, in Mitchell’s words, “the prime example of the way women start to create themselves as social subjects under bourgeois capitalism.” After finishing Mitchell’s essay, I couldn’t tell if she was opposed to the novel, which I think is an important point to clarify, as Mitchell herself asserts the novel as the defining element for women in a capitalist society. Perhaps she is in favor of novels that are critical, such as a main subject her essay, Wuthering Heights, and not for conformist novels, such as those by Mills and Boon.

  • Classifiers in Kokborok
    International Journal of Linguistics and Literature (IJLL) ISSN(P): 2319-3956; ISSN(E): 2319-3964 Vol. 4, Issue 5, Aug - Sep 2015, 33-42 © IASET CLASSIFIERS IN KOKBOROK S. GANESH BASKARAN Associate Professor, Department of Linguistics, Rabindranath Tagore School of Indian Languages and Cultural Studies, Assam University, Silchar, Dorgakona, Silchar, Assam, India ABSTRACT Classifiers are defined as morphemes which occur ‘in surface structures under specific conditions’; denote ‘some salient perceived or imputed characteristics of the entity to which an associated noun refers’ (Allan 1977: 285). The classifiers are primarily divided into sortal and mensural subtypes. Sortal classifiers typically individuate referents in terms of the kind of entity it is, particularly with respect to inherent properties such as shape and animacy while the mensural one distinguishes the referents in terms of quantum or amount (Lyons 1977: 463). Thepresent paper is a humble attempt to describe morphosemantic aspects of Kokborok classifiers in the light of synchronic approaches. The study is confined to the West Tripura district of Tripura State. KEYWORDS: Kokborok, Classifier, Numeral Classifiers, Sortal and Mensural Classifiers INTRODUCTION The word ‘kokborok’ is a compound word. ‘ kok ’ means ‘ language ’ and ‘ borok ’ means ‘ people ’. According to 2001 Census of India, the total population of Kokborok speakers in the State of Tripura was 761964. Robert Shafer (1966-74) has made totally different classification of Sino-Tibetan languages than from other authors. He divides Tibeto- Burman into four main groups: Bodic, Baric, Burmic and Karenic. According to Shafer, Kokborok belongs to the Western Units of the Barish Section within the Baric Subdivision of Sino-Tibetan.

  • ACHARYA NARENDRA DEVA a Biographical Sketch
    ACHARYA NARENDRA DEVA A Biographical Sketch The second half of the 19th century produced many a great leader in India who fought for her freedom. Narendra Deva was one among them. His ancestors were Khatris of Kochhar sub-caste. They had migrated to the United Provinces (present Uttar Pradesh) from Sialkot (now in Pakistan). Narendra Deva's grandfather, Kunja Mull, had set up a utensils shop at Faizabad. He was prosperous and was able to send his son, Baldeva Prasad, for higher studies. The latter studied at Bareillv College and passed the Entrance examination of Calcutta University in the second division in 1874. Four years later he set up his legal p.«ctice at Sitapur. He was not only a lawyer, but also a writer of textbooks for children in English, Hindi and Persian. After the death of his father in 1891, he shifted to Faizabad to manage family affairs. Narendra Deva—originally named Avinashi Lai — was born at Sitapur on 31 October 1889. He was the second son of Baldeva Prasad and Jawahar Devi. He had three brothers and two sisters. Owing to his father, early influences on young Narendra Deva were of his own Hindu religion and culture. As a boy, he could recite Sandhya, Rudri and the Gita. He was instructed by a Maharashtrian Brahman in the Vedas. He also became familiar with 1 uisidas's Ramacharitmanasa, the Mahabharata in Hindi, Sur Sogar, Laghu-Siddhanta-Kaunntdi and Amarkosh. Early in life, Narendra Deva came in touch with Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya, a man of spotless personal character, a silver-tongued orator and the founder of Banaras Hindu University, whom Narendra Deva's father had met at Allahabad on the occasion of the Congress session in December 1888.
