  • Language and Literature
    1 Indian Languages and Literature Introduction Thousands of years ago, the people of the Harappan civilisation knew how to write. Unfortunately, their script has not yet been deciphered. Despite this setback, it is safe to state that the literary traditions of India go back to over 3,000 years ago. India is a huge land with a continuous history spanning several millennia. There is a staggering degree of variety and diversity in the languages and dialects spoken by Indians. This diversity is a result of the influx of languages and ideas from all over the continent, mostly through migration from Central, Eastern and Western Asia. There are differences and variations in the languages and dialects as a result of several factors – ethnicity, history, geography and others. There is a broad social integration among all the speakers of a certain language. In the beginning languages and dialects developed in the different regions of the country in relative isolation. In India, languages are often a mark of identity of a person and define regional boundaries. Cultural mixing among various races and communities led to the mixing of languages and dialects to a great extent, although they still maintain regional identity. In free India, the broad geographical distribution pattern of major language groups was used as one of the decisive factors for the formation of states. This gave a new political meaning to the geographical pattern of the linguistic distribution in the country. According to the 1961 census figures, the most comprehensive data on languages collected in India, there were 187 languages spoken by different sections of our society.

  • Curriculum Vitae
    Curriculum Vitae Name : Dr. Raghuvir Chaudhari Date of Birth : 1938 Address (Residential): A-6, Purneshwar Flats, Gulbai Tekra, Ahmedabad-380 015 Tel. No. : 9327726371 Website : http://iet.ahduni.edu.in/people-details/faculty- list/sanjay_chaudhary He did his M.A. in ‘Hindi language and literature’ from Gujarat University in 1962 and later obtained his Ph.D. from the same University in 1979. He retired on 15th June, 1998, as a Professor and Head of the Department of Hindi, Post-graduate School of Languages, Gujarat University. Eight students have obtained PhD degree under his guidance. Raghuveer Chaudhari had worked for adult-education in his village and also constructed a small library and a theatre for his school. During vacations, he used to work with social workers. He was very active in 'Navanirrnan Andolan' - an anti-corruption movement - against the State Government of Gujarat. With the same concern he had opposed ‘The Emergency’ which suppressed the freedom of expression in 1975. He was born and brought up in a religious family of farmers. His acquaintance with leading and devoted Gandhian friends as well as his farming background nourished the deep sense of social responsibility in him. This is the reason why his concept of modernism is different from those of his contemporaries. Raghuveer's talent was nurtured by the prose writings of Govardhanram Tripathi, Kaka Kalelkar, Suresh Joshi, Niranjan Bhagat and Priyakant Maniyar. He owes his early training to his teacher and friend Bholabhai Patel, a well-known scholar and man-of- letters in Gujarati. Later Raghuveer developed an interest in Hindi and Sanskrit studies.

  • 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.

    International Journal of Innovative Research and Advanced Studies (IJIRAS) ISSN: 2394-4404 Volume 7 Issue 5, May 2020 A Study On The Path- Breaking Intellectual Impact Of The Marxist Cultural Movement (1940s) Of India DR. Sreyasi Ghosh Assistant Professor and HOD of History Dept., Hiralal Mazumdar Memorial College for Women, Dakshineshwar, Kolkata, India Abstract: In history of Bengal/India, the decade of 1940s was undoubtedly an era of both trauma and triumph. The Second World War, famine, communal riot and Partition/refuge e crisis occurred during this phase but in spite of colossal loss and bloodbath the Marxist Cultural Movement/Renaissance flourished and left its imprint on various spheres such as on literature, songs, dance movements, painting and movie -making world. The All India Centre Of The Progressive Writers” Association was established under leadership of Munshi Premchand in 1936. Eminent people like Mulkraj Anand, Sajjad Jahir, Muhammad Ashraf and Bhabani Bhattacharyya were gradually involved with that platform which achieved immense moral support from Rabindranath Tagore, Sarojini Naidu, Ramananda Chattopadhyay, and Saratchandra Chattopadhyay. Nareshchandra Sengupta became President when its branch for Bengal was founded on June 25, 1936. Actually the Anti-Fascist International Association Of Writers” For The Defence Of Culture, established in Paris (1935) through effort of Romain Rolland and Gorkey, made path for the Marxist cultural Movement of India. Indian Movement had important milestones in its history of development such as establishment of Youth Cutural Institute (1940), Organisation Of The Friends Of The Soviet Union (1941), The Anti-Fascist Writers” And Artists” Association (1942) and The Indian People”s Theatre Association (I.P.T.A- 1943) etc.

Chaudhari, Ph. D. Assoc. Professor, Dept. of English, the KNSBL Arts and Commerce College, Kheralu Gujarat (India) Umashankar Joshi was a remarkable poet and playwright of twentieth century Gujarati literature. He remained one of the chief contributors amongst Gujarati writers to lead the society as well as Gujarati literature towards new directions. He emphasized the Gandhian ideology and enriched the tradition of Gujarati Literature. Umashankar Joshi exposes the social and economic ills deeply entrenched in the society. The girl named Hilli in the story is devoid of motherly love since her childhood. She is shown motherless growing under the care of Bavaji, the Sadhu at the outskirts of a village. Joshi stresses on the wretched predicament of motherless girl deprived off her social identity and her ultimate comfort in the form of seeking the mother within herself. Hilli remains the victim of immoral societal structure. The writer seems to confirm the hopes and despairs of human mind in a striking manner. One of the fascinating features of this story is ‘Hilli continues to exist herself within two personalities’: mother and a daughter. Keywords: social evils. Gandhian ideology, exploited class, human nature, psychological attitude, social identity Scholarly Research Journal's is licensed Based on a work at www.srjis.com Umashankar Joshi was a notable poet and playwright of twentieth century Gujarati literature.

  • Jnanpith Award
    Jnanpith Award JNANPITH AWARD The Jnanpith Award is an Indian literary award presented annually by the Bharatiya Jnanpith to an author for their "outstanding contribution towards literature". Instituted in 1961, the award is bestowed only on Indian writers writing in Indian languages included in the Eighth Schedule to the Constitution of India and English, with no posthumous conferral. The Bharatiya Jnanpith, a research and cultural institute founded in 1944 by industrialist Sahu Shanti Prasad Jain, conceived an idea in May 1961 to start a scheme "commanding national prestige and of international standard" to "select the best book out of the publications in Indian languages". The first recipient of the award was the Malayalam writer G. Sankara Kurup who received the award in 1965 for his collection of poems, Odakkuzhal (The Bamboo Flute), published in 1950. In 1976, Bengali novelist Ashapoorna Devi became the first woman to win the award and was honoured for the 1965 novel Pratham Pratisruti (The First Promise), the first in a trilogy.
