Son père, se réfugiant dans ses ambitions littéraires, laisse sa famille s’enfoncer dans la misère. Apu va alors découvrir le monde, avec ses deuils et ses fêtes, ses joies et ses drames. Sans jamais sombrer dans le désespoir, l’enfance du héros de la Trilogie d’Apu est racontée avec une simplicité émouvante. A la fois contemplatif et réaliste, ce film est un enchantement grâce à la sincérité des comédiens, la splendeur de la photo et la beauté de la musique de Ravi Shankar. Révélation du Festival de Cannes 1956, La Complainte du sentier (Pather Panchali) connut dès sa sortie un succès considérable. Prouvant qu’un autre cinéma, loin des grosses productions hindi, était possible en Inde, le film fit aussi découvrir au monde entier un auteur majeur et désormais incontournable : Satyajit Ray.

    Need to Provide Budgetary Support to the Government of West Bengal for Setting up Madarsas

    an> Title: Need to provide budgetary support to the Government of West Bengal for setting up Madarsas. SHRI SUDIP BANDYOPADHYAY (KOLKATA UTTAR): In our State, West Bengal, minorities contribute 2.57 crore, that is 28.1 per cent of the total population. The present Government has increased the budgetary support for development of minorities by five times, from Rs.472 crore in 2010-11 to Rs.2,383 core during the current fiscal year. We met the hon. Minister, Shrimati Najma Heptulla with a delegation just two days back at her residence in the morning and discussed in detail. We have some issues. Firstly, scholarships are offered by the Central Government under the 15 point programme. In West Bengal, it was 20 lakhs, this year we have received applications of near about 30 lakhs. We would like to appeal to the Central Government to consider increase the quota from 20 lakhs to 30 lakhs. Secondly, Multi Sectoral Development Programme during 2015-16, the Government made an appeal for a grant of Rs.415 crore, and only Rs.100 crore has been allotted. The balance may kindly be delivered at the quickest possible time. About the clusters of minority areas outside NCBs, proposals for approval of minorities clusters under the MSDP are pending, approval may be given to the name. About Cyber Gram, the State has proposed to the Minister this. This Government has sanctioned 243 Madrasas, out of 615 Government-aided Madrasas. Balance may be released as per the proposal. The State Government has undertaken the project of Skill Development Programme with a project cost of Rs.86.46 crore under MSDP; Rs.6.02 crore has been sanctioned towards administrative cost for this purpose.

  • Two Films: Devi and Subarnarekha and Two Masters of Cinema / Partha Chatterjee

    Two Films: Devi and Subarnarekha and Two Masters of Cinema / Partha Chatterjee

    Two Films: Devi and Subarnarekha and Two Masters of Cinema / Partha Chatterjee Satyajit Ray and Ritwik Ghatak were two masters from the Bengali cinema of the 1950s. They were temperamentally dissimilar and yet they shared a common cultural inheritance left behind by Rabindranath Tagore. An inheritance that was a judicious mix of tradition and modernity. Ray’s cinema, like his personality, was outwardly sophisticated but with deep roots in his own culture, particularly that of the reformist Brahmo Samaj founded by Raja Ram Mohan Roy to challenge the bigotry of the upper caste Hindu Society in Bengal in the early and mid-nineteenth century. Ghatak’s rugged, home- spun exterior hid an innate sophistication that found a synthesis in the deep-rooted Vaishnav culture of Bengal and the teachings of western philosophers like Hegel, Engels and Marx. Satyajit Ray’s Debi (1960) was made with the intention of examining the disintegration of a late 19th century Bengali Zamidar family whose patriarch (played powerfully by Chabi Biswas) very foolishly believes that his student son’s teenaged wife (Sharmila Tagore) is blessed by the Mother Goddess (Durga and Kali) so as able to cure people suffering from various ailments. The son (Soumitra Chatterjee) is a good-hearted, ineffectual son of a rich father. He is in and out of his ancestral house because he is a student in Calcutta, a city that symbolizes a modern, scientific (read British) approach to life. The daughter-in-law named Doyamoyee, ironically in retrospect, for she is victimized by her vain, ignorant father-in-law, as it to justify the generous, giving quality suggested by her name.

    Barrenness and Bengali Cinema

    1 “May You Be the Mother of A Hundred Sons!”: Barrenness vs. Motherhood in Bengali Cinema” Somdatta Mandal Department of English & Other Modern European Languages Visva-Bharati, Santiniketan Borrowing from the recently published novel The Palace of Illusions, Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni’s reimagining of the world-famous epic Mahabharata, let me begin with a well-known story. “Gandhari’s marriage, although she’d given up so much for its sake, was – like Kunti’s – not a happy one. Dhritarashtra was a bitter man. He never got over the fact that he’d been passed over by the elders – just because he was blind – when they decided which of the brothers should be king… The goal of Dhritarashtra’s life was to have a son who could inherit the throne after him. But here a problem arose, for in spite of his assiduous attempts Gandhari didn’t conceive for many years. When she finally did, it was too late. Kunti was already pregnant with Judhisthir. A year came. A year went. Yudhisthir was born. As the first male child of the next generation, the elders declared, the throne would be his. Dhritarashtra’s spies brought more bad news. Kunti was pregnant again. Now there were two obstacles between Dhritarashtra and his desire. Gandhari’s stomach grew large as a giant beehive, but her body refused to go into labor. Perhaps the frustrated king berated her, or perhaps the fact that he’d taken one of her waiting women as his mistress drove Gandhari to her act of desperation. She struck her stomach again and again until she bled, and bleeding gave birth to a huge, unformed ball of flesh.

    1 MediaWatch Volume 4 (1): Special Issue 100 Years of Indian Cinema The Changing World of Satyajit Ray: Reflections on Anthropology and History MICHELANGELO PAGANOPOULOS University of London, UK Abstract The visionary Satyajit Ray (1921-1992) is India’s most famous director. His visual style fused the aesthetics of European realism with evocative symbolic realism, which was based on classic Indian iconography, the aesthetic and narrative principles of rasa, the energies of shakti and shakta, the principles of dharma, and the practice of darsha dena/ darsha lena, all of which he incorporated in a self-reflective way as the means of observing and recording the human condition in a rapidly changing world. This unique amalgam of self-expression expanded over four decades that cover three periods of Bengali history, offering a fictional ethnography of a nation in transition from agricultural, feudal societies to a capitalist economy. His films show the emotional impact of the social, economic, and political changes, on the personal lives of his characters. They expand from the Indian declaration of Independence (1947) and the period of industrialization and secularization of the 1950s and 1960s, to the rise of nationalism and Marxism in the 1970s, followed by the rapid transformation of India in the 1980s. Ray’s films reflect upon the changes in the conscious collective of the society and the time they were produced, while offering a historical record of this transformation of his imagined India, the ‘India’ that I got to know while watching his films; an ‘India’ that I can relate to. The paper highlights an affinity between Ray’s method of film-making with ethnography and amateur anthropology.
