Download or read book Early Women's Writings in Orissa, 1898-1950 written by Sachidananda Mohanty and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2005 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on the early literary experiences of women in the east Indian state of Orissa, this volume offers valuable insights into the conditions for these women at a time when the region witnessed the advent of Brahmo Samaj, the campaign for widow remarriage, the legal movement for the abolition of untouchability, the rise of women's education and trade union movements, and the struggle for national independence. The author explores such questions as: What were the features of this body of writing? How did contemporary history, politics, gender and culture impinge on the generation and dissemination of this body of literature? and How did such writing contribute to the making of literary/cultural consciousness in conjunction with and in contrast to developments at the national level?

Download or read book Spark of Light written by Valerie Henitiuk and published by Au Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 240 pages. 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.

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 276 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.

Download or read book Writing Gender, Writing Nation written by Bharti Arora and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2019-07-03 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the gendered contexts of the Indian nation through a rigorous analysis of selected women’s fiction ranging from diverse linguistic, geographical, caste, class, and regional contexts. Indian women’s writing across languages, texts, and contexts constitutes a unique narrative of the post-independence nation. This volume highlights the ways in which women writers negotiate the patriarchal biases embedded in the epistemological and institutional structures of the post-independence nation-state. It discusses works of famous Indian authors like Amrita Pritam, Jyotirmoyee Devi, Mannu Bhandari, Mahasweta Devi, Mridula Garg, Nayantara Sahgal, Indira Goswami, and Alka Saraogi, to name a few, and facilitates a pan-Indian understanding of the concerns taken up by these women writers. In doing so, it shows how ideas travel across regions and contribute towards building a thematic critique of the oppressive structures that breed the unequal relations between the margins and the centre. The volume will be of interest to scholars and researchers of gender studies, women’s studies, South Asian literature, political sociology, and political studies.

Book excerpt: The Present Book Which Is Based On Her Doctoral Thesis Socialization Of Girl Stu¬Dents Was More In The Nature Of Return¬Ing To Her Roots To Study The Changes That Have Taken Place In The Post-Indepen¬Dence India. Since The Soul Of India Lies In The Villages, She Took Up The Study Of The Most Backward States Most Backward Regions To Probe The Problems And Hard¬Ships Encountered By The Girl-Child In Her Effort To Cope-Up With Her Urban Counter¬Part In The Changing Times. The Political, Religious, Social, Economic, Educational And Cultural Background Which Influence The Growth Of A Girl-Child Have Proved More Of A Constraint Than Help. The Post-Independence Indian Society Which Has Progressed Leaps And Bounds With The Help Of Science And Technology-The Mass Media Has Come As A Boon To The Masses; Has Remained A Distant Dream For The Region.This Study Was Undertaken To Collect First-Hand Impirical Data From The Region Comprising Of Sundergarh, Sambalpur, Bolangir And Kalahandi Districts Of Western Orissa, Much Before The State And The Nation Showed Their Concern For The De¬Velopment Of The Girl-Child. The Present Study Of The Author Was To Probe The Bias Perpetuated By The Parents Against The Girl-Child. The Findings Have Quiet Far-Reaching Impact. However, The Study Is Just The Beginning Of Unveiling The De¬Monic Evils That Haunt The Society Which Still Refuses To Break Open The Shackles It Has Put On Itself In The Form Of Supersti¬Tions, Ignorance And Illiteracy. The Effort Should Continue Whether They Be Volun¬Tary Or Governmental For The Emancipa¬Tion Of The Girl-Child.

Download or read book Why Do Men Barbecue? written by Richard A. Shweder and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do American children sleep alone instead of with their parents? Why do middle-aged Western women yearn for their youth, while young wives in India look forward to being middle-aged? In these essays, the author reminds us that cultural differences in mental life lie at the heart of any understanding of the human condition. Drawing on ethnographic studies of the distinctive modes of psychological functioning in communities around the world, Richard Shweder explores ethnic and cultural differences in ideals of gender, in the life of the emotions, in conceptions of mature adulthood and the stages of life, and in moral judgments about right and wrong. The knowable world, Shweder observes, is incomplete if seen from any one point of view, incoherent if seen from all points of view at once, and empty if seen from nowhere in particular. This work strives for the "view from manywheres" in a culturally diverse yet interdependent world.

It focuses on issues such as feudalism and colonial modernity, language politics and the rhetoric of progress, westernisation, nativity and border crossing. It brings the archival material to centre stage and employs theatrical tools from the fields of gender, translation and culture studies.
