Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Govinda Samanta: Or the History of a Bengal Raiyat (1874) is a novel by Lal Behari Dey. Inspired by a lifetime dedicated to serving the poor and oppressed, Lal Behari Dey wrote Govinda Samanta in order to portray the life of Bengali peasants in a positive, human light. Praised by Charles Darwin, awarded a substantial prize by a prominent Bengali zamindar, Lal Behari's novel is a masterpiece of Bengali literature. "It was considerably past midnight one morning in the sultry month of April, when a human figure was seen moving in a street of Kánchanpur, a village about six miles to the north-east of the town of Vardahamána, or Burdwán. There was no moon in the heavens, as she had already disappeared behind the trees on the western skirts of the village..." After introducing his novel with a brief warning to readers, Lal Behari opens his story with a beautiful description of village life in Bengal. In episodic fashion, he follows one "human figure" after another, each of them enriching his description of his native land. Centered on the raiyat boy Govinda, the story follows the journey from innocence to experience of a youth shaped by the stories and traditions of his village. Opposed to flowery language and romanticism, he hopes to tell "a plain and unvarnished tale of a plain peasant, living in this plain country of Bengal." Praised upon publication, Govinda Samanta: Or the History of a Bengal Raiyat is a compelling and understated narrative of working-class life from an author who dedicated his own life to serving the poor. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Lal Behari Dey's Govinda Samanta: Or the History of a Bengal Raiyat is a classic work of Bengali literature reimagined for modern readers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Govinda Samanta: Or the History of a Bengal Raiyat The village life, and every care that reigns O'er youthful peasants and declining swains; What labour yields, and what, that labour past, Age, in its hour of languor, finds at last; What form the real picture of the poor, Demand a song - the Muse can give no more.

Excerpt: ...where she was born, she puts on no veil, not only in the house, not even-'n the streets. Malati, however, after her marriage, while she remained in her father's house, was not allowed, as formerly, to go out to the fields, either with the cows or with her father's dinner, as she was now considered to be another man's property. But she did a great deal of work in the house; and Alanga, who was a first-rate housekeeper in her small way, initiated her into the mysteries of cooking, of husking paddy, of making mudi, of frying khadi, of washing clothes, of manufacturing cow-dung cakes, and the like. When the first year of her marriage was over, an nvoy arrived from Durganagar bearing a verbal message to the effect that the father and mother of Madhava were anxious that Malati should go to their house for good. Alanga and Sundari were very unwilling that she should be sent so soon, and Badan, who shared the same feeling, dismissed the messenger with the reply that he would send her in a short time. But that short time became very long. At last a second messenger, a woman, arrived from Durganagar, with a dull (a litter) and two bearers, for carrying Malati. Badan saw that there was nothing for it but to send her. The village astrologer was accordingly consulted for an auspicious day, and due preparations were made for her departure. The day fixed by the astrologer soon came; the duli was at the door; Malati put on her best clothes and all her ornaments. Alanga, Sundari, and Aduri set up a loud cry, as if somebody had died in the house; and Malati cried the loudest. The scene was quite affecting. It was a Bochim. But go she must. Two stout bearers lifted the duli on their shoulders with Malati in it, the women of Durganagar.standing beside...

This book was released on 2024-10-21 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary children’s literature in Bangla celebrates irreverent, defiant and deviant boys whose subversive doings critique the parenting and schooling they go through, while the girl child is neglected and marginalised. The rare fictional girls who show resilience and demand a normal childhood are consciously silenced, or contained and assimilated within unwritten masculinist norms. This book –a compilation of translated works of the author, critic and academic, Sibaji Bandyopadhyay –focuses on gender and childhood in Bengal. The book includes a translation of his Bangla Shishusahityer Chhoto Meyera (Little Girls in Bangla Children’s Literature), as well as a translated essay on Thakurma’ Jhuli (Grandma’s Sack), a collection of Bangla folk tales and fairytales from early twentieth century that underscores the subaltern role of adolescent female characters with hardly any agency or voice in the oral legends and folklore of Bengal. The translation of the piece ‘An Incredible Transition’ from Bandyopadhyay’s Abar Shishushiksha (On Children’s Education Again) applauds the role of Indian social reformers and British educationists in initiating women’s education in Bengal, while questioning the erasure of protagonists who are girls in the nineteenth-century primers. Interrogating gendered constructions in diverse genres of literature while revisiting the subject of female education, this book will be of interest to students of children’s literature, comparative literature, popular literature, gender studies, translation studies, culture studies and South Asian writings.
