Her current projects connect the history of the anti-colonial movement to the development of the post-independence state. At the moment she is finishing an essay, “Women in the State: Elected women and the Challenge of Politics in the 1950s,” which is part of a collaborative project on Feminism and Nationalism in India. A highlight of this collaboration was a conference in September of 2018 at Cambridge University. In addition, she is co-editing a volume on India’s multi-language policies and particularly the variation in language politics across states. Finally, and connectedly, she is writing a monograph on the history of "Reservations," India policy, somewhat like affirmative action, that provides designated seats in Parliament, state legislatures and other institutions for under-represented groups. The research for this book was sponsored by a Fulbright-Nehru Senior Research Grant. All three projects point to the organic and changing nature of Indian democracy, which was designed to emphasize its inclusiveness of various constituents and stake-holders within Indian society and, in so doing, provide potential lessons for the rest of the world. David Lynn is Editor Emeritus of the Kenyon Review, an international journal of literature, culture, and the arts, which he edited from 1994-2020. He is also professor of English and Special Assistant to the President of Kenyon College. In 1990, he founded the KR Young Writers Program and, in 1997, the KR Writers Workshop. His collection, Children of God: New and Selected Stories, appeared in 2019. One of its stories, "Divergence," won an O. Henry Award. David Lynn is also the author of Wrestling with Gabriel, a novel, and two earlier collections of stories, Year of Fire and Fortune Telling, as well as a critical study, The Hero's Tale: Narrators in the Early Modern Novel. His stories and essays have appeared in magazines and journals in America, England, India, and Australia. David Lynn lives in Gambier, Ohio with his wife, Wendy Singer, a distinguished historian of India. 7 About the Faculty conducting the Writing Workshop: In addition to many short stories, Nancy Zafris has published four books of fiction: The People I Know (U of Georgia Press), winner of the Flannery O’Connor award for short fiction and the Ohioana Library Association award for best book of fiction; The Metal Shredders (Blue Hen/Penguin Putnam), a NY Times Notable book, Lucky Strike (Unbridled

  • Catholic Shrines in Chennai, India: the Politics of Renewal and Apostolic Legacy
    CATHOLIC SHRINES IN CHENNAI, INDIA: THE POLITICS OF RENEWAL AND APOSTOLIC LEGACY BY THOMAS CHARLES NAGY A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Religious Studies Victoria University of Wellington (2014) Abstract This thesis investigates the phenomenon of Catholic renewal in India by focussing on various Roman Catholic churches and shrines located in Chennai, a large city in South India where activities concerning saintal revival and shrinal development have taken place in the recent past. The thesis tracks the changing local significance of St. Thomas the Apostle, who according to local legend, was martyred and buried in Chennai. In particular, it details the efforts of the Church hierarchy in Chennai to bring about a revival of devotion to St. Thomas. In doing this, it covers a wide range of issues pertinent to the study of contemporary Indian Christianity, such as Indian Catholic identity, Indian Christian indigeneity and Hindu nationalism, as well as the marketing of St. Thomas and Catholicism within South India. The thesis argues that the Roman Catholic renewal and ―revival‖ of St. Thomas in Chennai is largely a Church-driven hierarchal movement that was specifically initiated for the purpose of Catholic evangelization and missionization in India. Furthermore, it is clear that the local Church‘s strategy of shrinal development and marketing encompasses Catholic parishes and shrines throughout Chennai‘s metropolitan area, and thus, is not just limited to those sites associated with St. Thomas‘s Apostolic legacy. i Acknowledgements This thesis is dedicated to the memory of my father Richard M.

  • Student Writing in the University of Madras: Traditions, Courses, Ambitions
    CHAPTER 22. STUDENT WRITING IN THE UNIVERSITY OF MADRAS: TRADITIONS, COURSES, AMBITIONS By Susaimanickam Armstrong University of Madras (India) Writing courses and related initiatives at the University of Madras make available to the students the skills of writing. According to their programs and interests, students are trained in many forms of writing, including professional, creative, and research. This profile describes some techniques and assignments used as part of these writing oppor- tunities in various disciplines. It attempts to critically understand the role of the university in forwarding new trends in writing and com- munication that play a major role in establishing careers of students and that are shaping the development of the academic and creative world. The author describes in detail his own expanded uses of writing in a literature course. Further, the essay spells out the progress of “soft skills” programs in several languages, by which students gain new hori- zons in language acquisition. Finally, it projects a range of new writ- ing/communications initiatives by which the university can expand its importance in the burgeoning economy of its region. The 153-year old University of Madras (UOM) is the mother of almost all the old universities of Southern India. It is an affiliated, state university under the Government of Tamil Nadu. The university area of jurisdiction has been confined to three districts of Tamil Nadu in recent years. This is consequent to the establishment of various universities in the state and demarcation of the university territories. Through its long history, the university has diversified its teaching and re- search.

  • WOMEN in CARNATIC MUSIC Rupasri Shankar TC 660H Plan II
    WOMEN IN CARNATIC MUSIC Rupasri Shankar TC 660H Plan II Honors Program The University of Texas at Austin May 13, 2020 ____________________________________ Dr. Stephen Slawek Butler School of Music Thesis Supervisor ____________________________________ Dr. Cynthia Talbot Asian Studies Second Reader ABSTRACT Author: Rupasri Shankar Title: Women in Carnatic Music Supervising Professors: Dr. Stephen Slawek, Dr. Cynthia Talbot Carnatic music traces its roots back to the ancient traditions of South India. This ancient art form has undergone the most musical and social transformation over the last few hundred years. Particularly in the realm of gender politics in India, South Indian classical music has seen a renaissance of emerging female artists over the last century. The interest of this paper is in the particular moment in history where the cultural constructs of India made it possible for women to break through barriers and emerge as eminent, sought-after artists in classical music. The emergence of female artists and the growing voice of women in gender politics issues in India during the early 20th century is a phenomenon that must have some explanation. Thus, the main research areas of this paper are, first, to establish the political and social environment of postcolonial India in which the female voice became respected in the classical arts. Second, this paper aims to understand how the female rise to popularity in the 20th century impacted the state of gender dynamics in Carnatic music in the 21st century, especially through the lens of the #MeToo movement. Finally, these research areas aim to answer one overarching question: What was the journey of the female voice in Carnatic music? i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my advisors, Dr.

  • Temples Within Chennai City
    Temples within Chennai City 1 As the famous Tamil poetess AUVAYYAR says in Her Legendary presentation of cluster of hymns “Kovil illatha ooril kudi irukkathe” Please don’t reside in a place where there is no temple. The Statement of our forefathers is sacrosanct because the temple indicates that the community is graced by the presence of God and that its Citizens form a moral community. A Community identifies and is identified by others with its temples. It has been our ancient endavour to lead a pious life with full dedication to the services of the Lord. Sri Paramacharya of Kanchi Mutt has repeatedly called devotees and stressed the importance of taking care of old temples - which requires enormous power of men and money - instead of constructing new temples in cities. As you may be aware, there are thousands of temples in dilapidated condition and requires constant maintenance work to be undertaken. There are many shiva lingas of ancient temples found under trees and also while digging. In ancient times, these lingas were 'Moolavars' of temples built by several kings. After conquests and devastations by foreign invaders, Indian temples were destructed and the sacred deities were thrown away and many were broken. The left out deities are found later. Of them, some are unidentified. Those who attempt to construct temples for gods are freed from the sins of a thousand births. Those who think of building a temple in their minds are freed from the sins of a hundred births. Those who contribute to the cause of a temple are bestowed with divine virtues and blessings.
