It is quite evident that Protest Literature deals with the problems of Geographic and Demographic Displacement, Racial atrocities and oppression, Social Segregation, Marginalization, Alienation, Loss of identify and the problems arising from the atrocities against the underdog in their varied Miasmical forms like untouchability, incarceration, genocide, rape and violence. It is often referred by the dominating groups that the Dalits or Black people are at the lowest profile of the society because of their habits, traditions, culture and their aversion and lacking reason to cultivate civilized habits and culture. But it is a conspiracy of the dominating groups to fabricate such an ill-image of the oppressed classes of people to put them under their hold. Generations of human history proved this fact that the dominant always try to keep up their hegemony over the depressed to enjoy special privileges. That is the reason why most of the Protest Literatures aimed at sensitizing the underdog to realize the facts and to retrieve the lost human rights and stature of these people.

  • A Case Study of Shakespeare's Plays in Gujarati
    Translation History as Alternative Cultural History: a Case Study of Shakespeare’s Plays in Gujarati Turkish Online Journal of Qualitative Inquiry (TOJQI) Volume 12, Issue 6, June 2021: 1739-1746 Translation History as Alternative Cultural History: a Case Study of Shakespeare’s Plays in Gujarati Dr. Sunil Sagara*, Anjali Ramnanib a* Associate Professor & Head, Department of Communication Skills, Marwadi University, Rajkot Gujarat, India bAssistant Professor of English, Karnavati University, Gandhinagar Gujarat, India. Abstract Gujarat is widely known to the world for being a land of entrepreneurs and for its economic progress and prosperity. The mainstream history books highlight these aspects, along with focusing on political events. However, mainstream history books of Gujarat do not talk about the vibrant cultural and intellectual life of 19th and 20th century Gujarati society. They do not take into account art, literature and culture which flourished equally during that time. Since mainstream history books fall short of highlighting these aspects, we will need to adopt alternative methods. Translation history is one of them as translation is an “intercultural activity” that entails negotiation between at least two cultures. The paper attempts to trace the cultural history of 19th and 20th century Gujarat by tracing the translation history of Shakespeare’s plays in Gujarati which took place from 1874 to 1992. It shows how Gujarati society had the sensibility to engage with Shakespeare through translation and other endeavours. It concludes by asserting that translation history of this kind can shed new light on the cultural and intellectual traditions of Gujarati society.. Keywords: Translation history, alternative cultural history, Shakespeare, colonial encounter, patronage 1.

  • Archive: Biographical Essays Women Politicians of Constituent Assembly
    ARCHIVE: BIOGRAPHICAL ESSAYS WOMEN POLITICIANS OF CONSTITUENT ASSEMBLY HANSA JIVRAJ MEHTA (1897-1995) After the Indian constitution was finally made; on November 22, 1949, just a few weeks before our ‘Samvidhan’ was formally adopted, each member of the Constituent Assembly gathered in the Parliament and shared snippets of the incredible journey they had while drafting the Constitution for what was going to be the biggest and the most diverse democracy in the world. In this gathering, a member from the Assam Province, Mr. Rohini Kumar Chaudhuri, in quite a distasteful spirit said, “We have in this constitution cow protection to some extent, but there is no provision at all for protection against cows…..We really need protection against women because in every sphere of life they are now trying to elbow us out. In the legislatures, in the embassies, in everything they try to elbow us out.” Not only was this a highly regressive statement, but it also clearly portrayed the fact that some men, due to their patriarchal mindset and the lack of belief in the capabilities of women; needless to say, stemming from their gender biases, had not taken the inclusion of women in the legislature and other aspects of the Indian socio- political life, in a positive temperament. However, the way the member put up his views, comparing women to ‘cows’ and how they were, yet, apparently, ‘elbowing men out’ had to be countered well. And perhaps, none could have done it better than this witty lady, an embodiment of intellect and an epitome of humility, who said, “The world would have thought very little of men if they had asked for protection against women in this constitution; I am very happy to see that the Constitution does not include that provision.

  • Bibliography of Books Read by Mahatma Gandhi
    Bibliography of Books Read by Mahatma Gandhi Kirit K. Bhavsar Gujarat Vidyapith Library (retired) Mark Lindley author of J. C. Kumarappa : Mahatma Gandhi’s Economist Purnima Upadhyay Gujarat Vidyapith Library GUJARAT VIDYAPITH AHMEDABAD 2011 CONTENTS : Preface . .. 1 Chronological List (in ten sections) . 3 List of Titles . 72 List of Authors . 99 Appendix 1: Some of Gandhi’s remarks on eight religious classics . 110 Appendix 2: Some other books owned by Gandhi . 117 Appendix 3: Details still sought . 147 Acknowledgements. 149 0 PREFACE The annotated bibliography which Ananda Pandiri 1 prepared in the 1980s and ’90s (with some help from Shri Bhavsar), and which lists 354 titles, is valuable as far as it goes, but we have found evidence of well over a hundred additional books – many of them in native Indian languages – which Gandhi can be shown to have read, and have thus gained a more accurate picture of the extent to which he read more in English than in other languages. In addition to including entries for the additional titles, we provide in the Chronological List and in Appendix 1 some citations of Gandhi’s remarks about various books. Appendix 1 gives representative samples of his remarks about the classical religious texts that he most often referred to (the Bhagavad Gita , the Ramayana , the Ishopanishad , the Koran, the Bible, the Mahabharata , the Bhagavata and the Manusmriti ). The Chronological List includes (a) more nearly comprehensive coverage of his remarks about books in regard to which we have found only a few comments by him, and (b) citations of evidence that he actually read each book in the list.

  • An Overview of Gujarati Dalit Literature
    Volume: II, Issue: III ISSN: 2581-5857 An International Peer-Reviewed GAP BODHI TARU - Open Access Journal of Humanities REGIONAL LITERATURE AND STREAKS OF MARGINALIZATION: AN OVERVIEW OF GUJARATI DALIT LITERATURE Dr. Preeti Oza St. Andrew‟s College University of Mumbai An overview of Gujarati Lalit (mainstream literature, having derived the name from its obsession with the „beautiful‟) clearly indicates the predominant presence of Brahmin writers. It is against this backdrop of Gujarati Lalit literature, considered central/ mainstream, great/ aesthetic, that Dalit literature came to be considered marginal/ peripheral, little/ unaesthetic. These two currents are fundamentally oppositional. It is out of this situation that Dalit literature begins to define itself as being essentially different in nature, scope, implications, and direction. Like other Dalit writings, Gujarati Dalit literature is also the product of a revolt against the age-old exploitation and torture of the Gujarati upper castes. Literally, it is a revolt against decadent Modernism in Gujarati Literature. Like other parts in India, Gujarati Dalit literature was also determined and guided by the Dalit Movements in Gujarat. The movement provided a platform for Dalit writers whose creativity received no attention from a parochial literary establishment. There were some attempts to insist upon a commitment to the Movement as the first pre-requisite for a Dalit writer. But gradually, after initial hiccups, it settled in a steady and strong protest against the set system of collective injustice. In Gujarati Literature the Dalit literary trend has started around 1975. This literary trend fully flowered after 1980. Various events and causes which took place at that time like Anti-Reservation and Anti-Roster Strikes, Communal Riots, embracing other religion, Dalit killings of Ranamalpur and Golana are responsible for this upsurge.
