TUESDAY 4 APRIL 2017 COVER STORY 05 Liu Qiang, a police officer in central Henan province, and his wife wanted to use a modern naming method that still accounts for “bazi” -- the traditional belief in a destiny determined by one’s date of birth. “Bazi” or “eight characters,” refers to the eight digits denoting the year, month, date and hour of birth. It is believed to deter- mine the natural elements present in one’s life, such as metal, wood, water, fire and earth. A name can compensate for the elements that a child lacks. Liu’s son lacked a wood element, so Qim- ingtong named him “Bailin,” combining the characters for cypress tree and a mythical, dragon-like creature from Chinese folklore to create a name which his parents hope will help him forge a unique identity. “We want him to realise his personal dreams,” said Liu, 39. Chinese looking to move abroad or work for international companies may also seek help choosing an English name.

  • Freemuse-The-State-Of-Artistic-Freedom
    THE STATE OF ARTISTIC FREEDOM 2018 FREEMUSE THE STATE OF ARTISTIC FREEDOM 2018 1 Freemuse is an independent international organisation advocating for and defending freedom of artistic expression. We believe that at the heart of violations of artistic freedom is the effort to silence opposing or less preferred views and values by those in power – politically, religiously or societally – mostly due to fear of their transformative effect. With this assumption, we can address root causes rather than just symptoms – if we hold violators accountable. Our approach to artistic freedom is human rights-based as it provides an international legal framework and lays out the principles of accountability, equality and non-discrimination, and participation. ©2018 Freemuse.

  • EVOLVING FEMALE SEXUALITY in INDIAN CINEMA
    © 2018 JETIR March 2018, Volume 5, Issue 3 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) FIFTY SHADES of PINK - EVOLVING FEMALE SEXUALITY in INDIAN CINEMA Aaquib Shehbaaz Usmani Dr S.K.Bhogal Assisstant Professor Registrar Delhi School of Journalism Dean, Faculty of Arts and Humanities Delhi University Shri Ventakeshwara University New Delhi, India Gajraula, U.P. India. Abstract: This paper analyses the changing patterns of how women’s sexual desires and ambitions are portrayed in Indian Cinema. The characters in my study portray the women of power, ambition and lust. They are not just puppets in the hands of the traditional norm of the society but strong women who are crazy and not emotional wrecks, who are courageous and not meek, and represent the ambitious, headstrong girls in Indian cinema who can make it happen. Introduction: Patriarchy has often set norms to control female sexuality. The sexuality of women is considered passive in Indian society and if she expresses her sexual desires she is considered to be a pervert. Female sexuality has been ignored in Hindi Cinema but after the advent of globalization many film makers with liberal attitudes have raised their concern over the issue of female sexuality and most of the films have covered this aspect by putting forward the sexual desires and the need for sexual autonomy. The three films discussed in the paper represent women who expresses their sexual desires and challenge the patriarchal norms. We have come a long way from dancing sunflowers and depiction of the birds and the bees, to showing sexuality as a weakness or entertainment for men.
