D. Sasi Kiran and Dr. Sharada Allamneni, Editors Language Learning and Teaching 7 EDITORS’ NOTE “Building A Global Village (GV) Through Inter-Cultural Dialogue” is concerned with the relation and interaction between Language and Literature and how it shapes the Cultural ethos of a human society. Language and Literature, the two forms of expression, are the strongest transmission channels that shape any culture. The study of Language or Literature is no longer – if it ever was – simply the study and evaluation of poems, novels and plays. It is also the study of the ideas, issues and difficulties which arise in any literary text and in its interpretation. Other arts and humanities subjects have also changed in analogous ways, evidence for which is available in the rich archives of knowledge resources, both conventional and digital. These repositories, when tapped, become sources for establishing closer cultural ties, proving that the East and the West shall, indeed, meet. The complex discipline of Language, Literature, and Cultural Studies aims at comprehending the global environment by exploring the unifying elements, in terms of intellect, emotion or spirituality, underlying the cultures of varied social groups reflected in the language and literature of our times. Culture, after all, is not an arena for harmonious unfolding of the nationalist or universal spirit, as is often supposed. Nor is ‘Culture’ simply a zone of aesthetic. It is often a field, of contention and conflict, among classes and other social forces that struggle for dominance. This fascinating online volume will enable its readers to engage themselves with a wide gamut of issues and ideas underlying the dynamics of cultural exchange among people and nation states that are becoming more and more globalized and detached from any specific culture. The objective of studying Culture in today’s era is to combat the elitist, revivalist, communalist culture that is rearing its ugly head in some quarters of the world. This volume will bring researchers, scholars and translators of culture into a dialogue where they will share their experiences on how recent communication and literary theories emanating from the cultural studies movement are helping to understand the matrix shaping globalization.
