India is a multi-lingual country steeped in its rich culture and tradition. There are many such treasure troves of creativity in the regional languages that would have been lost to the rest of the world, but for its tradition, which is the only means to reach a wider group of reading public. Tradition helps to understand the thought process of the people of a particular region against the backdrop of socio-cultural roots. Malayalam is one of the multifaceted languages in India. Malayalam, the mother tongue of nearly thirty million Malayalis, ninety percent of whom living in Kerala state in the south – west corner of India, belongs to the Dravidian family of languages.

  • Poverty, Shame and Social Exclusion
    Draft- not for citation without prior permission of authors Poverty, Shame and Social Exclusion Working Paper 1 India Cultural conceptions of poverty associated shame: Analysis of Indian Cinema and Short stories Leemamol Mathew Sony Pellissery 2012 Dr. Leemamol Mathew, Institute of Rural Management, Anand, India [email protected] Dr. Sony Pellissery , Institute of Rural Management, Anand, India [email protected] 1 Draft- not for citation without prior permission of authors Cultural conceptions of poverty associated shame: Analysis of Indian Cinema and Short stories Introduction India is home to the largest number of poor people in the world. Of 1.13 billion people, 27.8 per cent live below the poverty line (below the accepted income level of consumption requirements according to the conservative standards of the Indian government). The face of this deep and persistent poverty is observable in poor spending on health, undignified ageing, poor educational standards, malnourished bodies, inferior housing, poor infrastructure resulting in deterioration in the quality of life, child labour, poor service delivery, less importance attached to safety measures etc. All of them have severe implications for inter- personal relationships within the household, village, work place, and in the larger community. Concurrently, in recent times, wealth accumulation through businesses in India is reported, indicating increasing economic inequality. On the other hand, India is also marked by another interesting phenomenon. It is the home of origin for the largest number of religions. Buddhism, Jainism, Hinduism, Sikhism were all born in India. It is also important to note the peculiar institution of caste, i.e., dividing human beings into social hierarchies according to their occupation, which is peculiar to Indian culture.

  • English Language and Literature Core Course VIII – Film Studies
    English Language and Literature SEMESTER V Core Course VIII – Film Studies (EN 1543) Part 2 FILM MOVEMENTS SOVIET MONTAGE (1924-1930) • Montage is a technique in film editing in which a series of shorts are edited into a sequence to compact space, time, and information. • Visual montage may combine shots to tell a story chronologically or may juxtapose images to produce an impression or to illustrate an association of ideas. • Montage technique developed early in cinema, primarily through the work of the American directors Edwin S. Porter and D.W. Griffith. Soviet Montage • Soviet Montage Montage describes cutting together images that aren’t in spatial or temporal continuity. • Director Lev Kulshov first conceptualized montage theory on the basis that one frame may not be enough to convey an idea or an emotion • •The audience are able to view two separate images and subconsciously give them a collective context. • In the 1920s, a lack of film stock meant that Soviet filmmakers often re-edited existing films or learned how to make films by deconstructing old ones rather than shooting new material. • When they did shoot film, they often had only short lengths of film left over from other productions, so they not only used short shots, they often planned them in great detail. Kuleshov Effect • Kuleshov experiment is a good example. • The basic notion that a subsequent image could affect the viewer’s interpretation of the previous one was supported by behavioral psychology theories popular at the time. • Kuleshov concluded from his experiment that editing created the opportunity to link entirely unrelated material in the minds of the viewers, who were no longer seen as simply absorbing meaning from the images, but actually creating meaning by associating the different images and drawing meaning from their juxtaposition.
