  • MULTICULTURALISM – a NEW TECHNIQUE of INDIAN MODERN WRITERS Liza Chakravarty English Language Faculty, MENA College of Management, Dubai (United Arab Emirates)
    European Journal of English Language and Literature Studies Vol.4, No.5, pp.17-22, August 2016 ___Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org) MULTICULTURALISM – A NEW TECHNIQUE OF INDIAN MODERN WRITERS Liza Chakravarty English Language Faculty, MENA College of Management, Dubai (United Arab Emirates) ABSTRACT: Indian English has been universally accepted as a unique style of discourse with its own nuances giving expression to Indian Multiculturalism. In the works of writers in India or those abroad not only the new Indian writers in the west, expatriates, second and third generation writers, but also the classical authors like A. K. |Ramanujan, Nissim Ezekiel, Mulk Raj Anand, R. K. Narayan, and Bhabani Bhattacharya are being interpreted in the new old critical mode as well the current critical styles of multiculturalism. The concept of Multiculturalism recognizes the ethnic diversity within a society and has enlightened worthwhile contributions to society made by people from diverse backgrounds .Multiculturalism as a social theory brings together different themes such as cultural diversity, recognition, mutual concern, and peaceful co-existence of many cultures and sub-cultures. KEYWORDS: Multiculturalism, Ethnic Diversity, Contribution, Recognition INTRODUCTION There was a time, not so long ago, when a visit to a Kolkata bookshop to browse its section of Indian Literature would be a somewhat depressing experience. There would be a handful of stellar stand-out names, of course; Salman Rushdie, Amitav Ghosh and one or two others.
