M. Keith Booker, PhD Dissertation Director Yajaira M. Padilla, PhD Frank Scheide, PhD Committee Member Committee Member Abstract This project analyzes adaptation in the Hindi film industry and how the concepts of gender and identity have changed from the original text to the contemporary adaptation. The original texts include religious epics, Shakespeare’s plays, Bengali novels which were written pre- independence, and Hollywood films. This venture uses adaptation theory as well as postmodernist and postcolonial theories to examine how women and men are represented in the adaptations as well as how contemporary audience expectations help to create the identity of the characters in the films.

  • Clare M. Wilkinson-Weber
    Clare M. Wilkinson-Weber TAILORING EXPECTATIONS How film costumes become the audience’s clothes ‘Bollywood’ film costume has inspired clothing trends for many years. Female consumers have managed their relation to film costume through negotiations with their tailor as to how film outfits can be modified. These efforts have coincided with, and reinforced, a semiotic of female film costume where eroticized Indian clothing, and most forms of western clothing set the vamp apart from the heroine. Since the late 1980s, consumer capitalism in India has flourished, as have films that combine the display of material excess with conservative moral values. New film costume designers, well connected to the fashion industry, dress heroines in lavish Indian outfits and western clothes; what had previously symbolized the excessive and immoral expression of modernity has become an acceptable marker of global cosmopolitanism. Material scarcity made earlier excessive costume display difficult to achieve. The altered meaning of women’s costume in film corresponds with the availability of ready-to-wear clothing, and the desire and ability of costume designers to intervene in fashion retailing. Most recently, as the volume and diversity of commoditised clothing increases, designers find that sartorial choices ‘‘on the street’’ can inspire them, as they in turn continue to shape consumer choice. Introduction Film’s ability to stimulate consumption (responding to, and further stimulating certain kinds of commodity production) has been amply explored in the case of Hollywood (Eckert, 1990; Stacey, 1994). That the pleasures associated with film going have influenced consumption in India is also true; the impact of film on various fashion trends is recognized by scholars (Dwyer and Patel, 2002, pp.

  • India's Textile Industry Is Seeking Innovative Solutions to Preserve and Tap Into Our Heritage
    India's textile industry is seeking innovative solutions to preserve and tap into our heritage India, with a tribal population of 104.28 million, doesn’t have a central agency that has managed to map the wealth of its tribal textile design and build a database that can be accessed with ease by retailers, importers and design students. “In the Northeast (home to over 200 tribes), textile design is more geometric higher up in the hills because the tribes work on simple loin looms. As one descends, a transition to throw shuttle and fly shuttle looms can be seen. Textile design goes beyond aesthetic and becomes a source of identity for them,” Mukti Gogoi, commissioner and secretary — Handloom, Textile, Sericulture Department, Government of Assam said, at the Textiles India 2017 event held earlier at the end of June. This trade fair brought 15,000 Indian textile industry representatives, 2,500 international buyers from 106 nations and hundreds of craft connoisseurs to Mahatma Mandir, a convention-cum-exhibition centre in Gandhinagar, Gujarat. With an aim to present India’s cultural wealth to the world, technology is making a positive intervention. The Bodo dress (Bodos are the single largest group in the Northeast) can be found on Google’s virtual exhibition project titled ‘We Wear Culture’. Textiles from North-Eastern India (1850-1980), mainly collected during anthropological fieldwork, are on display here. The digital collection also features the Pani Gamcha, a black cotton cloth with white stripes, used by the Meitei women in Manipur and the historic Naga warrior cloth painted with human figures.
