    CULTURE Karnataka’S Cultural Heritage Is Rich and Variegated

    Chapter XIII CULTURE Karnataka’s cultural heritage is rich and variegated. Kannada literature saw its first work during 9th Century and in modern times it has created seven winners of Jnanapeetha Award for their literary talents. Literary activity in other languages of neighbouring areas in this state and purely local languages like Tulu and Kodava is also considerable. Journalism in Kannada has its history dating back to 1843 and has many achievements to its credit. Karnataka has thrown up outstanding personalities of historical significance. In the musical map of India, the State has bright spots, whether it is Hindustani or Karnatak, the latter having originated in this land. In the field of dance and art too Karnataka has creditable achievements. Yakshagana is both a folk and elite art is flourishing here. The State’s tradition in folk arts is also colourful.When one thinks of the cultural scene, Shivaram Karanth, Kuvempu, Dr. Rajkumar, Maya Rao, Mallikarjuna Mansur, T. Chaudiah, K.K.Hebbar, Panith Bheemasen Joshi, Gangubai Hangal, B.V. Karanth U.R. Anantha Murthy, Girish Karnad, Chandrashekar Kambar are a few bright faces that shine forth. An attempt is made to survey the cultural pageant of Karnataka in this chapter. LITERATURE Kannada Literature: Kannada literature has a history dating back to at least 1500 years. This apart, the folk literature which began earlier, still runs parallel to the written form Ganga king. Saigotta Sivarama’s ‘Gajashtaka’ is cited as an example of early folk literature. The oldest available work in Kannada is however, a book on poetics, called ‘Kavirajamarga’. Some controversy surrounds this work regarding the authorship, but the consensus is that it was written more likely by the court poet Srivijaya than the Rashtrakuta king Amoghavarsha Nripathunga.

    A Woman’s Retelling of the UNIT 2 LAKSHMI KANNAN AND INDIRA Rama-Tale: The Chandrabati Ramayana SANT: POEMS Structure 2.0 Objectives 2.1 Introduction 2.2 Lakshmi Kannan and Rasha Sundari Debi 2.3 The Text - ‘Don’t Wash’ 2.4 Understanding the Poem 2.5 Indira Sant 2.6 The Text – ‘Her Dream’ 2.7 Understanding the Poem 2.8 Let Us Sum Up 2.9 Glossary 2.10 Aids to Activities 2.11 Unit End Questions 2.12 References and Suggested Reading 2.0 OBJECTIVES On completing this unit, you will understand the challenges in the life of India’s first woman autobiographer, Rasha Sundari Devi whose courage and patience is the subject of Lakshmi Kannan’s poem, ‘Don’t Wash’. You will also be able to see, through Indira Sant’s poem ‘Her Dream’, how a widow in India feels unwanted because she does not have a husband to ‘complete’ her, and society thinks that she is therefore inferior and inauspicious. At the end of this unit you will see how society favours men and tries to keep women under control by denying them education and an equal status to men without whom they are made to feel like lesser beings. Words in bold are explained in the Glossary 2.1 INTRODUCTION The patriarchal system ensures that women are not allowed to participate fully in life activities and are forcibly circumscribed by the four walls of their home – and even more so, of the kitchen. In one of her interviews, Kannan tells us that she has ‘always celebrated the struggle of the so-called “ordinary” women (and men)… as truly heroic in the way they strive to triumph over their endless struggles in life.’ It is sad that even today across India, girls are not allowed to develop their talents and skills; they are only taught what is required to be deft homemakers.

    UC Irvine FlashPoints Title Bombay Modern: Arun Kolatkar and Bilingual Literary Culture Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2pk8z0z9 ISBN 978-0-8101-3273-3 Author Nerlekar, Anjali Publication Date 2016-04-21 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Bombay Modern The FlashPoints series is devoted to books that consider literature beyond strictly national and disciplinary frameworks, and that are distinguished both by their historical grounding and by their theoretical and conceptual strength. Our books engage theory without losing touch with history and work historically without falling into uncritical positivism. FlashPoints aims for a broad audience within the humanities and the social sciences concerned with moments of cultural emergence and transformation. In a Benjaminian mode, FlashPoints is interested in how literature contributes to forming new constellations of culture and history and in how such formations function critically and politically in the present. Series titles are available online at http://escholarship.org/uc/flashpoints. series editors: Ali Behdad (Comparative Literature and English, UCLA), Founding Editor; Judith Butler (Rhetoric and Comparative Literature, UC Berkeley), Founding Editor; Michelle Clayton (Hispanic Studies and Comparative Literature, Brown University); Edward Dimendberg (Film and Media Studies, Visual Studies, and European Languages and Studies, UC Irvine), Coordinator; Catherine Gallagher (English, UC Berkeley), Founding Editor; Nouri Gana (Comparative Literature and Near Eastern Languages and Cultures, UCLA); Susan Gillman (Literature, UC Santa Cruz); Jody Greene (Literature, UC Santa Cruz); Richard Terdiman (Literature, UC Santa Cruz) A complete list of titles begins on page 293.
