  • 82. Indian Subcontinent, 1750–1947
    82. Indian Subcontinent, 1750–1947 Tania Sengupta [CHAPTER KEYWORDS: India; Pakistan; Bangladesh; Burma; Ceylon (Sri Lanka); Britain; France; British Raj; prison; railway station; market (bazaar); bungalow; veranda; cutcherry (office); zilla sadar; cantonment; Neoclassicism; Indo-Saracenic; New Delhi; Edwin Lutyens] [CHAPTER ABSTRACT: The Indian subcontinent under colonial rule from the mid-eighteenth to mid-twentieth centuries witnessed the establishment of British economic and political dominance, suppressing other European powers, and consequently creating a long-term negative balance of the subcontinent’s trade with Europe and loss of its political sovereignty to Britain. Starting with Bengal around the mid-eighteenth century, the British gained territories across India, Ceylon and Burma over the nineteenth century. British colonial rule consisted of creating a ‘military fiscal’ state with agricultural revenues used to fund British wars worldwide. It also exploited cash cropping and plantation economies along with political control. In the full-blown imperial era (starting in 1858, following the Indian Mutiny of 1857), the colonial administration developed major institutions and other forms of infrastructure, accompanied by Victorian health and sanitary regimes, to organise and control its subjects’ lives. Following numerous peasant uprisings and increasingly including the middle classes, Nationalist resistance to British rule had intensified by the early twentieth century. This opposition, along with the war-impoverished British economy, finally led to the independence of the nations of the Indian subcontinent in the late 1940s. Colonial sociocultural encounter from the late eighteenth century involved the confrontation of European Enlightenment ideals with those prevalent in the Indian subcontinent. Early colonial travellers and Orientalists engaged in the study of Eastern cultures viewed the East as an exotic but decaying civilisation.

P. Assistant Professor & Head Department of English, Government First Grade College, Santhebennur- 577552 Khushwant Singh (Feb 2, 1915 -- ) is now at the age of ninety-nine, at threshold of celebrating his hundredth birthday anniversary. He is one of the great and significant literary personalities in the Post-Colonial Indian English Literature. Perhaps he is the most widely read and controversial writer. He has much revered as a journalist and columnist in the field of Indian English literature and distinguished among the men of letters with an international reputation. He is a rare, gifted, versatile writer who deserves to be adequately assessed and fairly recognized in the Post-Colonial Indian English Literature at the backdrop of Indian society and history. He was very successful with his earlier two novels- ‘Train To Pakistan’ (1956) and ‘I Shall Not Hear the Nightingale’ (1959). ‘DELHI’ is his third historical, produced it after a long period of his second novel ‘I Shall Not Hear the Nightingale’. The masterpiece ‘DELHI a novel’ is corollary to his earlier novels. He takes more than twenty-five years to complete and publish this in 1990. He writes his earlier two novels with historical background of aftermath Indian Independence and freedom movement respectively. However, unlike in DELHI, he writes his earlier novels in narrow range of historical facts on a smaller scale, the canvas is not as big as it is in DELHI.

  • Metamorphosis of Mind, Matter and Lines
    Gyankosh: An Interdisciplinary Journal ISSN : 2581-8252 Volume II, December 2019 METAMORPHOSIS OF MIND, MATTER AND LINES Dr. Kavita Singh ABSTRACT A sincere effort has been made to study the essence of the genre of drawing analysing its fine nuances and what sets apart a drawing from a sketch, as a majority of art lovers think sketching is fine arts whereas by studying the works of five Indian Contemporary artists for whom the genre of drawing stands much more than a mere sketch which is infact simply a study of an object and preliminary sketch to actual imaginative drawing. These five prominent artists have their own unique styles, perceptions and convictions; what unites them is the common chord of deeply intense expression about the human situations and social milieus and values, which compels them to create such meticulously fabulous aesthetically charged masterpieces of drawing which are equally valued as other genres like painting and multi-media. This research paper also traces their creative journeys, explores their minds and tries to demystify their artistic vocabulary and what qualifies as a good work of art which has the potential to charge the minds of the people and infuse a silent cerebral revolution.
