  • Arundhati Roy and New Inscription on Autumn Leaves Nazia Hassan
    Running Head: ARUNDHATI ROY AND NEW INSCRIPTION ON AUTUMN LEAVES 74 8ICLICE 2017-111 Nazia Hasan Arundhati Roy and New Inscription on Autumn Leaves Nazia Hassan Aligarh Muslim University India [email protected] Abstract New writings hold new truths and new hopes, as well. Arundhati Roy proves that once more. The God of Small things to The Ministry of Utmost Happiness weave an India and the world from North to South, from little joys to big agonies, small acts to huge rewards, grand shows to petty hearts…She once again speaks of the subalterns, the subjugated, the dismissed and the obliterated, the blinds and the hide-outs how the fists of resistance do not come down, the wish for rights, the dreams for dignity do not dim even as they bleed and endure like trees would treat witherings and autumns. Her works speak of high born ‘laltains’, the low born ‘mombatties’, the nowhere persons called eunuchs, orphans and the disowned; while worrying over drying river beds, dying birds and poachings rampant: she at least, wakes one up to the world! That’s the new writing which gives space to the unsaid and sheds light on the unrevealed. The history house doors are opened, the worm cans of Kasmir Military camps and Militant hide outs which indulge in something similar, the difference being the intention only which is a hair line one. We hear Dickens to Spivak in these new inscriptions. If Aftab is Anjum, then Anjum is the people called India, people called the world who are divided over caste, class, colour and deformity which no person inflicts on oneself.

  • BLOGS Dow Shalt Pay for Bhopal Just for the Record, and Those
    BLOGS Dow Shalt Pay For Bhopal Just for the record, and those who missed it earlier, thanks to a revival on Twitter -- and perhaps because of that the resulting emails today -- of the old Yes Men hoax/prank on BBC. The Yes Men explain the background: Dow claims the company inherited no liabilities for the Bhopal disaster, but the victims aren't buying it, and have continued to fight Dow just as hard as they fought Union Carbide. That's a heavy cross to bear for a multinational company; perhaps it's no wonder Dow can't quite face the truth. The Yes Men decided, in November 2002, to help them do so by explaining exactly why Dow can't do anything for the Bhopalis: they aren't shareholders. Dow responded in a masterfully clumsy way, resulting in a flurry of press. Two years later, in late November 2004, an invitation arrived at the 2002 website, neglected since. On the 20th anniversary of the Bhopal disaster, "Dow representative" "Jude Finisterra" went on BBC World TV to announce that the company was finally going to compensate the victims and clean up the mess in Bhopal. The story shot around the world, much to the chagrin of Dow, who briefly disavowed any responsibility as per policy. The Yes Men again helped Dow be clearer about their feelings. (See also this account, complete with a story of censorship.) Only months after Andy's face had been on most UK tellies, he appeared at a London banking conference as Dow rep "Erastus Hamm," this time to explain how Dow considers death acceptable so long as profits still roll in.

  • September 2019
    September 2019 Ranbir Kaleka, ‘Boy without Reflection’, oil on canvas, 305x152cm, 2004 About Us Culture matters. And it has to matter in India, with its diverse languages, dialects, regions and communities; its rich range of voices from the mainstream and the peripheries. This was the starting point for Guftugu (www.guftugu.in), a quarterly e-journal of poetry, prose, conversations, images and videos which the Indian Writers’ Forum runs as one of its programmes. The aim of the journal is to publish, with universal access online, the best works by Indian cultural practitioners in a place where they need not fear intimidation or irrational censorship, or be excluded by the profit demands of the marketplace. Such an inclusive platform sparks lively dialogue on literary and artistic issues that demand discussion and debate. The guiding spirit of the journal is that culture must have many narratives from many different voices – from the established to the marginal, from the conventional to the deeply experimental. To sum up our vision: Whatever our language, genre or medium, we will freely use our imagination to produce what we see as meaningful for our times. We insist on our freedom to speak and debate without hindrance, both to each other and to our readers and audience. Together, but in different voices, we will interpret and reinterpret the past, our common legacy of contesting narratives; and debate on the present through our creative work. Past issues of Guftugu can be downloaded as PDFs. Downloads of issues are for private reading only. All material in Guftugu is copyrighted.

  • Imagining Bombay: the Literary Representations of a Postcolonial City
    Imagining Bombay: the Literary Representations of a Postcolonial City by Kelly Anne Minerva A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of English University of Toronto © Copyright by Kelly Anne Minerva 2014 Imagining Bombay: the Literary Representations of a Postcolonial City Doctor of Philosophy 2014 Kelly Anne Minerva Graduate Department of English University of Toronto Abstract This dissertation analyses Bombay novels written in English that construct the city through the narrative manipulation of time, space, and memory. I argue that these imaginative (re)constructions of the city emphasize the limitations of narrative agency as well as the multiplicity and competition between narratives that comprise Bombay’s identity. In the first chapter, I contend that the hegemonic narratives of postcolonial nationalism, British colonialism, and Hindu fundamentalism are reductive rhetorical strategies that limit interpretations of Bombay novels to singular conceptions of the city. I argue that the novels by Salman Rushdie, Rohinton Mistry, and Vikram Chandra reveal characters who actively struggle in different ways with the multiple and coexisting identity-narratives of Bombay that they encounter in their everyday lives. In Chapter Two, I argue that in Rushdie’s Midnight’s Children and The Ground Beneath Her Feet first-person narrators manipulate time, space, and memory from protected, private spaces in order to reclaim the endangered Bombay that is central to their individual identities. Chapter Three examines Mistry’s Parsi characters in Such a Long Journey and Family Matters, who have almost no power to exercise narrative agency and, consequently, must negotiate by other means the overwhelming crush of identity narratives that impinge upon their private spaces.

  • Indian English Novel After 1980: Encompassing the New Generation
    JOURNAL OF CRITICAL REVIEWS ISSN- 2394-5125 Vol 8, Issue 1, 2021 INDIAN ENGLISH NOVEL AFTER 1980: ENCOMPASSING THE NEW GENERATION Arnab Roy Research Scholar National Institute of Technology, Durgapur Email: [email protected] Abstract: Indian English Literature refers to authors' body of work in India whose native or mother tongues might be one of India's several languages. It is also related to the work of Indian Diaspora members. It is also named Indo-Anglian literature. As a genre, this development is part of the larger spectrum of postcolonial literature. This paper discusses about Indian English novels after 1980. 1. Introduction This article attempts to consolidate Indian English Literature after 1980. There are a variety of books by literary artists such as SrinivasaIyengar, C.D. Narasimmaiya, M. K. Naik etc. that describe the beginning and development up to 1980. But the timely collection is not enough to date and this report is useful for a briefing on contemporary literary pedalling in around three-and-a-half decades. Apart from the deficiency of the correctly written root of the works consulted by Wikipedia, this kind of history is regularly obligatory. In India, post-colonial pressures played a critical and special position rather than post-war circumstances. It is true that an Indian genre called English writing has flourished unlimitedly and immensely and continues to thrive only during that time, i.e. after 1980. This paper is a study of Post- modern Indian English Novel, highlighting its history, themes adopted, andother aspects. 2. Historical past English isn't a foreign tongue to us.

  • (Rjelal) the Destiny of Postmodern Bourgeois
    Research Journal of English Language and Literature (RJELAL) Vol.1.Issue.3.;2013 A Peer Reviewed International Journal - http://www.rjelal.com RESEARCH ARTICLE ISSN 2321 – 3108 THE DESTINY OF POSTMODERN BOURGEOIS DERIVED FROM ARAVIND ADIGA’S THE WHITE TIGER, AND JERRY PINTO’S THE EM AND THE BIG HOOM M.SUBHA Ph.D. Research Scholar and Dr. T. Jayasudha, Associate Professor, Bharathi Women’s College, Chennai-108 ABSTRACT Indian postmodern novelists focus on Bourgeois life, Corruption and Class-conflicts. And they are writing the novels with all the latest advancement in the genre. Though it is an imported form as well as means of communication, it is irrefutable that it flourishes well, and provides something for everyone in the universe which is taken from its multi ethnic backdrop. And this universal appeal is the prime reason for its utmost reach. Aravind Adiga’s The White Tiger and Jerry Pinto’s Em and the Big Hoom are the selected novels of the study. The White Tiger won The Booker Prize for the year 2008 and Em and the Big Hoom won Hindu Literary Prize for the year 2012. An attempt is made to consolidate the common features of M.SUBHA contemporary men/women and their challenges in their own land and the possible linear and non-linear out comings with its own lapses, and also to highlight the Article Info: current features of Indian novels in English. Article Received: 05/08/2013 Revised on: 09/08/13 Accepted: 14/08/2013 The moral seriousness that is prevalent in Indian Tiger which turns out to be the destiny of society is undeniably the Centre of axis not only for postmodern bourgeois.
