The Editorial Board cannot be held responsible for the views expressed by the writers Editor’s note Malayalam Literary Survey always brings attention of readers to the current social scenario. This issue is especially dedicated to the representations of contemporary political and social issues in literature. Hence, Anand becomes the major focus of discussion. Anand is one of the eminent writers in Malayalam focusing his attention on the crisis in history and power structures. His works always deals with the questions of individual v/s society and make them a social urgency. Aalkoottam is one such. E.V Ramakrishnan’s article reveals the postmodern trends is Anand’s Fiction. U. A Khadher is a contemporary writer who foregrounds themes from folk tradition especially of northern Kerala and uses them for his works. His expressions in regional and folk language makes his narration unique. Dr. Reeja’s article on his narrative techniques contributes much to the readers. The politics of rituals are rarely a topic of discussion even in the contemporary cultural studies. The literature of Padayani provides a rich stuff yet to be explored. The article of Soumya Murukesh discusses how resistance becomes a thematic tool in one episode of Padayani. The translated literary pieces will touch and awake the aesthetic feelings of the readers and surely be of delight. Dr. K.P.

In reinventing itself from a new perspective, the Malayalam novel moved away from the ideological baggage of the earlier Romantic-Progressive phase. The realistic mode that had held sway over the narratives of Malayalam The modernist novelists in novels from the nineteen thirties, now gave Malayalam effected a clean break way to a more subtle and searching style with social realist mode and all that it that probed the complex inner worlds of stood for.

The post-colonial India had brought more anxieties than hopes, and in the emerging reality, Gandhian values rooted in asceticism and emancipation of the soul and Nehruvian vision of a modern India were at odds with each other. A new generation of young writers in the 1950s, among whom the prominent ones were M.T.Vasudevan Nair, T.Padmanabhan, N.P.Muhammad and Madhavikutty (Kamala Das for English readers), scripted a new narrative about loss, alienation and disillusionment. Instead of MALAYALAM LITERARY SURVEY 7 representing the society in black and white terms with an accent on social change, they sought the hidden motives behind actions and explored the mindscapes of characters from a non-judgemental perspective. M.T.Vasudevan Nair and Kamala Das were pioneers in psychological realism, and did not subscribe to political stereotypes about social transformation. They were the precursors of the great modernists who stormed into Malayalam fiction with an imaginative sweep and range that stunned the readers. O.V.Vijayan’s Khassakkinte Ithihasam (The Legends of Khassack) published in 1968, was a cultural event that altered the very grammar of narrative in Malayalam fiction. The modernist novelists in Malayalam effected a clean break with social realist mode and all that it stood for. They were sensitive to the changes sweeping the world. By 1956, the socialist dreams of a generation were deeply unsettled by the revelations of the purges of Stalin and the Soviet invasion of Hungary. Modernist writers were sceptical of ideological positions and found belief writing of the times.

Unnithan Guest Lecturer, NSS College for Women, Karamana, Trivandrum, Kerala Received: May 23, 2018 Accepted: June 30, 2018 ABSTRACT Mist, the Malayalam novel is certainly a golden feather in M.T.

This novel is truly different from M.T.’s other writings such as Randamuzham or its English translation titled Bhima. M.T. is a writer with wonderfulnarrative skills. In the novel, he combined his story- telling power with the technique of stream- of- consciousness and thereby provides readers, a brilliant reading experience. This paper attempts to analyse the novel, with special focus on its theme and imagery, thereby to point out how far the imagery and symbolism agrees with the theme of the novel.

    Literary Endeavour (ISSN 0976-299X) : Vol. X : Issue: 1 (January, 2019) www.literaryendeavour.org 375 70 A POSTCOLONIAL READING OF O.V. VIJAYAN'S KHASAKINTEITHIHASAM (THE LEGENDS OF KHASAK) Akhil V P, Ph.D Scholar, R&D Centre, Bharathiar University Dr. Geetha Senthilkumar, Associate Professor & Chairperson, Department of English, Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham Abstarct: Literature of an era reflects the cultural contours of a nation and moreover it responds to the very pulse of the respective time period. This process can be understood as cultural representation in literature. Interpretation and depiction of cultural aspects in literature is undoubtedly a part of this principle.The post-independenceMalayalam literature witnessed a remarkable shift to modernism with the contribution of writers like M.T Vasudevan Nair, O.V Vijayan, Kakkanadan, M. Mukundan, Anand, VaikomMuhammedBasheer, Sethu and PunathilKunhabdullah among many other eminent authors. The researcherhas selected the magnum opus fiction KhasakinteIthihasam (self-translated as The Legends of Khasak) written by O.V Vijayan to analyze the aspect of cultural representation in the post-independence Malayalam literature. Key Words: Colonialism, Post-colonial literature, Cultural representation, Modernism. Post-independence Malayalam literature became more realistic with the advent of modernism. But since Kerala culture is built through the legends of 'vadakkanpattukal' (ballads of the north), 'thekkanpattukal' (ballads of the south), 'pulluvarpattukal' (traditional songs of pulluvar community), 'Mappilapattukal' (traditional songs by the Islamic community) and such other 'pattu' school of poetry and the vast array of myths and legends that form the crux of Dravidian and Aryan ancestry, there could never be a total deviation. Colonialism left its deep imprint upon almost all wakes of Kerala history and literature was no exception.

  • Modernism, Postmodernism, Creativity, and Colonialism in Malayalam Literature
    MODERNISM, POSTMODERNISM, CREATIVITY, AND COLONIALISM IN MALAYALAM LITERATURE M.G.S. Narayanan It has become fashionable among critics to indulge in the fireworks of modernist and post-modernist Jargon, obviously in a bid to perplex tile poor reader. The modernist and the post-modernist in the West invented then- new phraseology to convey something different from their existing tradition, some new experience related to social change in the twentieth century, following the two World Wars which shattered all values and banished all finer sentiments from life. They were the victims of then’ own enlightenment faith in progress, equality and peace. Then’ predicament was unenviable. This agony gave birth to cynicism about human nature and the future of civilization. Bookish Indian scholars who never went through the hell and horror of such European war-experience, but blindly aped their counterparts in the West, cut sorry figures in their comic roles as critics. Tile pretentious and hollow preaching shows the distance between them and the realities of life among the people. The artist, the poet, the fiction writer has to be an organic part of life in the society in which lie lives and moves, breaths and thinks, and shared the passion of human existence. Living in an ivory tower, or pretending to live there, is an act of snobbery in a fools’ paradise, - no, in a fools’ inferno, if there is one. In Kerala, fortunately for us, we had a bunch of writers who were steeped in tile passions, witch moved the people - poverty, betrayal in love, inequality, dishonesty, perversion, ambition, disillusionment and frustration.

  • Umashankar Joshi (1911-1988) Is a Gujariti
    NATIONAL LITERATURE IN TRANSLATION Fragmented- Umashankar Joshi About the author: Umashankar joshi (1911-1988) is a Gujariti writer of prose fiction, poetry and drama, whose works display nationalist sentiments and social awareness as well as concern for the predicament of human life in society. His major works include Vasant Varsa, Gangotri and Pracina. Introduction : 'Fragmented' works with opposing ideas: of being fragmented and being whole, of love and hate, of memory and forgetfulness, of heat and coolness, and so on. The poet does not reach any definite conclusions, no solutions are provided for this state of affairs. Instead, the poem serves as a meditation on an individual's circumstances and in it can be read echoes of the fragmentary nature of the world itself. Summary :The poem has a circular structure: beginning and ending with the line 'I am fragmented'. The notion of being fragmented is one that is particular to the person as well as to the world of the poem. Throughout the poem, the fragmentation of the poet-persona is evoked through symbols, images and metaphors, each of which elaborates the idea and develops it further. For example, the first stanza has three images: of rhythm without metre; of a pattern upon a canvas and of breadcrumbs in a beggar's bowl. The image of the bread crumbs signifies that which is broken, redundant and of little use but which when added to that from several homes goes a little way towards assuaging someone's hunger. “I am fragmented-fallen apart- Like rhythm striving to throb in a poem without metre, Like a pattern trying to emerge upon man's life-canvas.

Colonies were made and those people were convicted in different ways. The present paper proceeds from the conviction that post colonialism and ecocriticism have a great deal to gain from one another. The paper attempts to see with the perspective of how Adivasis, tribes in general are colonized not only with other people but with the people of themselves. The changes associated with globalization have led to the rapid extension and intensification of capital along with an acceleration of the destruction of the environment and a growing gap between the rich and the poor. Narayan in his novel Kocharethi shows how Malayaras are colonized with their land, customs, and traditions and with their identities. The paper will focus on the reading of novel with post-colonial perspective.
