Download or read book Critical Discourse in Odia written by Jatindra Kumar Nayak and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-11-25 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume forms part of the Critical Discourses in South Asia series, which deals with schools, movements and discursive practices in major South Asian languages. It offers crucial insights into the making of Odia literature and its critical tradition across a century. The book brings together English translation of major writings of influential figures dealing with literary criticism and theory, aesthetic and performative traditions, and re-interpretations of primary concepts and categories in Odia. It presents twenty-five key texts in literary and cultural studies from late-nineteenth century to early-twenty-first century, translated by experts for the first time into English. These seminal essays explore complex interconnections between socio-historical events in the colonial and post-Independence period in Odisha and the language movement. They discuss themes such as the evolving idea of literature and criteria of critical evaluation; revision and expansion of the literary canon; the transition from orality to print; emergence of new reading practices resulting in shifts in aesthetic sensibility; dialectics of tradition and modernity; and the formation, consolidation and political consequences of a language-based identity. Comprehensive and authoritative, this volume offers an overview of the history of critical thought in Odia literature in South Asia. It will be essential for scholars and researchers of Odia language and literature, literary criticism, literary theory, comparative literature, Indian literature, cultural studies, art and aesthetics, performance studies, history, sociology, regional studies and South Asian studies. It will also interest the Odia-speaking diaspora and those working on the intellectual history of Odisha and Eastern India and conservation of language and culture.

Download or read book Paraja (Oip) written by Gopinath Mahanty and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1993-09 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written originally in Oriya in 1945 and translated here for the first time, Paraja is a classic of modern Indian fiction. It tells on an epic scale the story of a tribal patriarch and his family in the mountainous jungles of Orissa. The slow decline in the fortunes of this family - from the quiet prosperity of a subsistence livelihood towards bondage to the local moneylender - is both poignantly individualized as well as symbolic of the erosion of a whole way of life within peasant communities. The novel, furthermore, transcends what it documents because its characters are not merely primitive tribesmen ensnared by a predatory moneylender. Mohanty's protagonists are also quintessentially men and women waging heroic but futile war against a hostile universe. As the citation of the Jnanpith Award of 1974 put it - 'in Mohanty's hands the social is lifted to the level of the metaphysical.'

This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fakir Mohan Senapati (1843-1918) is remembered largely for his emancipation of early Odia fictional narratives both collection of short stories and novels, as well as autobiography, poetry, essay, text books, dictionary, spiritual and journalistic writing and translations into Odia which enriched early modern Odia literary canon. Perhaps, Senapati's identity may be aptly remembered more than the literary the socio-political and socio-economic changes which challenges and urgency he lived upon and accepted and refabricated around the historical time line in British Odisha when many changes were in threshold. Senapati remains the early chronicler of the 'SOCIAL REALISM' narrative tradition in Indian Literature and his fictional narratives which is a sum total of four novels and twenty short stories are set within the local Odia traditions focuses upon the hundred and more years of the tumultuous history of Odisha, emerging of colonial modernity in early 19th century and its effects during British rule. Senapati is also conscious of foreign and native encounter which simultaneously built up Odia collective identity in the past. He examines and mentions of the chronology of shifting of the power structure such as the Afghan, Mughal, and Maratha invasions long before the arrival of British East India Company (1803) in Odisha. Fakir Mohan Senapati remains a critic of the 'HYBRID' modernities - the collision of Odia modernities and British modernities during the colonial rule which influenced each other for near about hundred and fifty years and addresses important political factor responsible for demanding first a language province and then, sovereign intellectual sub-national identity. Senapati's fictional narrative may be compared with the rare classics in world literature; for Senapati's collective voice forms new waves across national and subnational boundaries in British India which is anticolonial and brings forth local resistances towards the emerging of European orders during British rule chiefly on the basis of the demands of the emerging collective Odia identity of his time. ---------------------------------------------------- Collision of Modernities in British Odisha, Vol. I, 2017, General Editor: Sarat Kumar Jena.

Download or read book Basanti written by Annada Shankar Ray and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-12-20 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Basanti is a misfit in conservative, pre-independence rural Odisha. Not only does she read and write, all her choices—from marrying for love to dispensing medicines to the poor and running a girls’ school—are unconventional. Her emancipatory aspirations evoke strong reactions from her surroundings, even surprisingly from her husband, who is supposedly passionate about women’s freedom. In this collaborative novel, nine young authors narrate the journey of a liberated woman who questions the socially ordained roles of women and argues for change, especially through education. The authors, six men and three women, belonged to the ‘Sabuja Age’ in Odia literature, a short-lived, creative period of ten to fifteen years. Serialized in Utkala Sahitya between May 1924 and November 1926 and published as a book in 1931, with a revised version appearing in 1968, Basanti is the first fictional declaration of the independence of the Odia woman.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spark of Light is a diverse collection of short stories by women writers from the Indian province of Odisha. Originally written in Odia and dating from the late nineteenth century to the present, these stories offer a multiplicity of voices—some sentimental and melodramatic, others rebellious and bold—and capture the predicament of characters who often live on the margins of society. From a spectrum of viewpoints, writing styles, and motifs, the stories included here provide examples of the great richness of Odishan literary culture. In the often shadowy and grim world depicted in this collection, themes of class, poverty, violence, and family are developed. Together they form a critique of social mores and illuminate the difficult lives of the subaltern in Odisha society. The work of these authors contributes to an ongoing dialogue concerning the challenges, hardships, joys, and successes experienced by women around the world. In these provocative explorations of the short-story form, we discover the voices of these rarely heard women.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a collection of fourteen short stories by Paramita Satpathy. These stories are full of characters that conceal their true persona under a veneer of a false confidence who are then are driven to seek a state of euphoria, releasing these dormant passions in unguarded moments. We have characters like Maya, whose life seems to upend the moment spots appear on her body. On the other hand, for her best friend Veena, life seems to be most sorted. Everyone seems to pity Maya, and she longs to be included, to belong. Yet as the years progress, it is Maya who has created a stable life for herself, while Veena is left wondering where she went wrong in life. There is also Babula, the orphan, who has to bear with whatever abuse Bata Sahu throws at him, in order to survive, and his struggle to break free from it. Prachi, the bride-to-be, who discovers her fiancé’s true animalistic nature; and Ranjita, the new bride who becomes the ultimate pay-off for her in-laws’ greed. For some protagonists, it’s the societal shackles they need to break out from; for others it is their own closest relations that compel them to take a bold step towards self-realization.
