    Clare M. Wilkinson-Weber TAILORING EXPECTATIONS How film costumes become the audience’s clothes ‘Bollywood’ film costume has inspired clothing trends for many years. Female consumers have managed their relation to film costume through negotiations with their tailor as to how film outfits can be modified. These efforts have coincided with, and reinforced, a semiotic of female film costume where eroticized Indian clothing, and most forms of western clothing set the vamp apart from the heroine. Since the late 1980s, consumer capitalism in India has flourished, as have films that combine the display of material excess with conservative moral values. New film costume designers, well connected to the fashion industry, dress heroines in lavish Indian outfits and western clothes; what had previously symbolized the excessive and immoral expression of modernity has become an acceptable marker of global cosmopolitanism. Material scarcity made earlier excessive costume display difficult to achieve. The altered meaning of women’s costume in film corresponds with the availability of ready-to-wear clothing, and the desire and ability of costume designers to intervene in fashion retailing. Most recently, as the volume and diversity of commoditised clothing increases, designers find that sartorial choices ‘‘on the street’’ can inspire them, as they in turn continue to shape consumer choice. Introduction Film’s ability to stimulate consumption (responding to, and further stimulating certain kinds of commodity production) has been amply explored in the case of Hollywood (Eckert, 1990; Stacey, 1994). That the pleasures associated with film going have influenced consumption in India is also true; the impact of film on various fashion trends is recognized by scholars (Dwyer and Patel, 2002, pp.

    Hungry Bengal: War, Famine, Riots, and the End of Empire 1939-1946 By Janam Mukherjee A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Anthropology and History) In the University of Michigan 2011 Doctoral Committee: Professor Barbara D. Metcalf, Chair Emeritus Professor David W. Cohen Associate Professor Stuart Kirsch Associate Professor Christi Merrill 1 "Unknown to me the wounds of the famine of 1943, the barbarities of war, the horror of the communal riots of 1946 were impinging on my style and engraving themselves on it, till there came a time when whatever I did, whether it was chiseling a piece of wood, or burning metal with acid to create a gaping hole, or cutting and tearing with no premeditated design, it would throw up innumerable wounds, bodying forth a single theme - the figures of the deprived, the destitute and the abandoned converging on us from all directions. The first chalk marks of famine that had passed from the fingers to engrave themselves on the heart persist indelibly." 2 Somnath Hore 1 Somnath Hore. "The Holocaust." Sculpture.

  • Address by the President of India, Shri Pranab Mukherjee to Members of Both Houses of Parliament
    ADDRESS BY THE PRESIDENT OF INDIA, SHRI PRANAB MUKHERJEE TO MEMBERS OF BOTH HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT January 31, 2017 Central Hall, Parliament House Honourable Members, 1. In this Basant season of renewal and resurgence, I welcome you all to this Joint Session of both Houses of Parliament. This is a historic session heralding the advancement of the Budget cycle and merger of the Railway Budget with the General Budget for the first time in independent India. We gather once again to celebrate democracy, a cherished value and culture that has prospered throughout the long history of our nation. Indeed, a culture that guides my government towards Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas. 2. The ideal of saha na vavatu, saha nau bhunaktu - May we be protected together and blessed together with bliss - has inspired our civilisation from time immemorial. This year marks the 350th birth anniversary of the great Sikh Guru - Guru Gobind Singhji. We are also observing the one thousandth birth anniversary of the great saint-philosopher Ramanujacharya. The luminous path of social transformation and reform shown by them serves as a beacon for all, and is an inspiration to my government. Page 1 of 27 3. This year marks the Centenary year of Champaran Satyagraha, which gave a new direction to our freedom struggle and channelised janashakti in the fight against colonial power. Mahatma Gandhi's ideals of Satyagraha instilled in every Indian an indomitable self-belief, and spirit of sacrifice for the larger good. This janashakti is today our greatest strength. 4. The resilience and forbearance demonstrated by our countrymen, particularly the poor, recently in the fight against black money and corruption, is remarkable.

  • Embassy of India
    India - Belarus Relations Political India’s relations with Belarus have been traditionally warm and cordial. India was one of the first countries to recognize Belarus as independent country in 1991. Formal diplomatic relations were established and the Indian diplomatic mission was opened in Minsk in 1992 followed by Belarus in 1998 in New Delhi. There is good understanding and cooperation in the international, multilateral and regional matters with a remarkable commonality of views on almost all international and regional issues. Belarus has been supportive of India’s candidature for a permanent seat at the UNSC. Belarus supported India’s candidature for the non-permanent seat of UNSC for the years 2011-12. Belarus also supported India at the NSG. Belarus was also the co-sponsor the resolution moved by India to declare June 21 as International Day of Yoga. India supported Belarus for its membership in the NAM and also other international and multilateral fora like IPU which was appreciated. India’s supportive stand on various Resolutions in Geneva and New York targeting Belarus for violation of human rights and restrictions on freedom of expression has been appreciated by Belarus. Belarus recognizes India as an emerging global power and seeks to develop a “strategic relationship” with India. Late PM Rajiv Gandhi visited Minsk in 1985 when Belarus was still a part of Soviet Union. High level contacts with Belarus have been maintained. There have been several high level visits from both the sides including visits of President Alexander Lukashenko in 1997 and again in 2007. President of India Shri Pranab Mukherjee has paid an official visit to Belarus on 2-4 June 2015 and the Vice President of India in 2005 apart from other ministerial level visits also Parliamentary exchanges.

  • Writing Women's Film History Against an Absent Archive
    LeadershipArticle Insights from Jaina text Saman Suttam 9 BioScope Notes on a Scandal: Writing 4(1) 9–30 © 2013 Screen South Asia Trust Women’s Film History Against an SAGE Publications Los Angeles, London, Absent Archive New Delhi, Singapore, Washington DC DOI: 10.1177/097492761200483052 http://bioscope.sagepub.com Debashree Mukherjee Never as yet has there been an industry or profession over which so much ink has been spilled as the flm business, and never will there arise a more acute question than now over the exact status our society should grant those men and women whom we have come to know, as “stars”. Zahir B. Kureishi aka “Zabak” (Zabak, 1940) Very early into the life of cinema in India it became apparent that this new phenomenon would generate talk. In its affective manifestations, cinema was able to circulate more freely and widely than the physi- cal film object. Fan magazines and tabloids were regularly swamped by letters demanding biographical information about stars. The studios that were associated with these glamorous names became sites of intense speculation and wonder. The film studio was exciting both as an emblem of technological moder- nity and as a thrilling heterosocial work space. This combined excitement can be glimpsed in a descrip- tion of the new Ranjit Studio: “Ah, the new studio—the new Ranjit studio! It is big and beautiful with such perfect acoustics that even if the director tried a tete-a-tete in whispers with the heroine it would all come out on the sound track as distinct as the song of a lark.” (Judas, 1938, p.

  • Genesis of Nationalism and Nationalist Movement in a Bengal District
    IOSR Journal of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 26, Issue 2, Series 8 (February. 2021) 26-33 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Genesis of Nationalism and Nationalist Movement in a Bengal District Maldah, 1905-1916 Akhil Ray ABSTRACT: The paper is dealt with the genesis of the regional form of national Consciousness that has been emerged during the year from 1905 to 1916 in one of the regions of Bengal namely Maldah. This period has also witnessed the emergence of a new class of English educated intelligentsia, which had been the chief vehicle for spreading nationalist consciousness in this district. Maldah, as one of the regions of colonial Bengal, proved to be significant in many respect in these years of nationalist struggles and paved the future discourse of this movement. The distinct entity of intelligentsia has been developed in the first two decades of the twentieth century in Maldah and it has spread across the region to influence the minds of the people of whom educated played a crucial role. This paper also analyses the diverse role of the intelligentsia and students in two important movements, one was the anti-partition of Bengal (Swadeshi) in 1905 and the other was the revolutionary terrorism. This has also given birth to a new hope and aspirations for participating in these struggles and proved crucial in the ongoing national movements. KEYWORDS: Maldah, Nationalism, Anti-partion, Terrorism, Swadeshi, Intelligentsia. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date of Submission: 13-02-2021 Date of Acceptance: 27-02-2021 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The emergence and growth of national consciousness and subsequently nationalist movement in Maldah from1905 to 1916 is the main thrust of this paper.

  • OF SOUTHEAST ASIA: ISSUES in CONNECTIVITY and CULTURE (Up to CE-1300)
    Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bangladesh (Hum.), Vol. 62(2), 2017, pp. 121-153 DECONSTRUCTING THE ‘NATIONALIST’ CONSTRUCTION OF ‘INDIANISATION’ OF SOUTHEAST ASIA: ISSUES IN CONNECTIVITY AND CULTURE (up to CE-1300) * Aksadul Alam Abstract The paper focuses on one of the ‘popular’ academic discourses of ‘Indianisation’, ‘Hinduisation’ or ‘Sanskritisation’ of Southeast Asia. Indian intelligentsia developed all these counter-hegemonic academic notions against the colonial construction that India, in her early days, was ‘uncivilised land of savagery’ and the British came to this land with a mission of civilizing India. But the approaches of the ‘nationalist’ scholars ultimately boasted up the ‘cultural imperialism’ of India over Southeast Asia. And, the megalomaniac notion of Pax Britannica became a counter-hegemonic Pax Indiana. Thus, the paper sheds light on the academic ‘scramble’ over the issue of designating Southeast Asia as an ‘extended sphere of influence’ or ‘cultural colony’ of either India or China and offers reinterpretation of early connectivity issues and cultural interactions between these regions by using geographic lens with special reference to the geographical-cultural territory of Bengal. Introduction The aim of the paper is to raise question against one of the ‘popular’ academic issues of ‘Indianisation’ of Southeast Asia that developed as a landmark in Indian historiography over the decades. In support of the question, the paper offers an interpretation of deconstructing this ‘colonial’ and ‘nationalist’ construction of ‘cultural hegemony’ of India over Southeast Asia as an extended ‘sphere of influence’. The paper also sheds light on connectivity issues and mutual interactions in commercial and cultural spheres of India and mainland-maritime Southeast Asia in the ancient period with special reference to ‘Bengal’1 by using geographical lens.

  • Origin and Formation of West Dinajpur District: a Brief Historical Study Abstract Dinajpur Is an Ancient ‘Janapadas’ in North-Eastern India
    P: ISSN NO.: 2394-0344 RNI No.UPBIL/2016/67980 VOL-3* ISSUE-4*(Supplementary Issue) July- 2018 E: ISSN NO.: 2455-0817 Remarking An Analisation Origin and Formation of West Dinajpur District: A Brief Historical Study Abstract Dinajpur is an ancient ‘Janapadas’ in north-eastern India. Since ancient times, this Janapadas has much changed due to administrative conveniences. Dinajpur has divided into three parts and located in India and Bangladesh but the name, ‘Dinajpur’ has remained unchanged till now. There are many historical interpretations of the same name and the resulting increases in the district’s geographical area and sometimes has decreased. The British had occupied the territory of the land in 1765 and the old royal dynasty of four hundred years became collapsed. After the occupation of the British Empire, the historical and geographical importance of Dinajpur will grow. Ghorghat territory had occupied by the British and formed it’s headquarter at Dinajpur town. Thus, the modern Dinajpur has been starting as modern head-quarter of the area from that time. Keywords: Origin and Development, Fragmentation of the land, Formation of West Dinajpur. Introduction There were so many problems for urbanization during the ancient times. So, the sign of cities has not found nearly a thousand years after the urbanization the Indus valley civilization in the country. And from the second to the sixth century BC was the beginning of urbanization. In the fourth century BC to the fourth century AD, was the final stage of urbanization.
