Download or read book Rudali written by Mahāśvetā Debī and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rudali is a powerful short story written by Mahasweta Devi. Revolving around the life of Sanichari, a poor lowcaste village woman, it is an acidly ironic tale of exploitation and struggle, and above all, of survival. In 1992 it was adapted into a play by Usha Ganguli, a leading theatre director of Calcutta, and instantly became one of the most acclaimed productions of its time. In both incarnations of Rudali, it has been a woman who has wrought and rewrought this text which revolves around the life of a woman; and each version of Rudali can be read as an important feminist text for contemporary India. Both the short story and the play, are included in this volume, along with an introductory essay that studies how and why the versions are different and what the changes signify, leading to an analysis of how the metamorphosis of Rudali allows us to address the simultaneity and asymmetry of feminist positions in this country today. Anjum Katyal, who has translated and introduced the texts in this volume, is a writer and an editor based in Calcutta. Mahasweta Devi is one of India s foremost writers. Her powerful fiction has won her recognition in the form of the Sahitya Akademi (1979), Jnanpith (1996) and Ramon Magsaysay (1996) awards, the title of Officier del Ordre Des Arts Et Des Lettres (2003) and the Nonino Prize (2005) amongst several other literary honours. She was also awarded the Padmasree in 1986, for her activist work among dispossessed tribal communities.

Download or read book The Concept of Motherhood in India written by Zinia Mitra and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020-02-09 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an overview of heterogeneous and homogeneous exemplifications of the concept of motherhood from ancient times until the present day. It discusses the centrality of motherhood in women’s lives, and considers the ways in which the ideology of motherhood and the concept of ideal motherhood are manufactured. This is validated through analysis of various institutional structures of society, including archetypes, religion, and media. The first section of the book locates motherhood in its historical context, and rereads the myths surrounding it as overarching social constructs. The second part explores the different theories, which have developed around motherhood, in order to outline and understand the concept. The section also looks at the lived reality of motherhood.

Download or read book A Theatre of Their Own: Indian Women Playwrights in Perspective written by Dr. Pinaki Ranjan Das and published by Partridge Publishing. This book was released on 2021-04-29 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an age where academic curriculum has essentially pushed theatre studies into ‘post-script’, and the cultural ‘space’ of making and watching theatre has been largely usurped by the immense popularity of television and ‘mainstream’ cinemas, it is important to understand why theatre still remains a ‘space’ to be reckoned as one’s ‘own’. This book argues for a ‘theatre’ of ‘their own’ of the Indian women playwrights (and directors), and explores the possibilities that modern Indian theatre can provide as an instrument of subjective as well as social/ political/ cultural articulations and at the same time analyses the course of Indian theatre which gradually underwent broadening of thematic and dramaturgic scope in order to accommodate the independent voices of the women playwrights and directors.

Book excerpt: Life sometimes takes us through the most unexpected twists and turns. From what seemed like the end for a young man who got his heart broken in a sleepy town in Dehradun, life shows him a new beginning. Arriving in Mumbai, he ends up meeting a girl from a fishermen’s hamlet, from where a new relationship blossoms; for her, the joy of first love, while for him, like another page he’s turned… yet another goodbye he’s uttered like many times before in his life. The two eventually part ways. Years later, the man returns to Mumbai, after years of hard work and climbing up the social and financial ladder, for a bit of rest, recreation and soul searching. Here, a chance encounter with a tiny angel brings him back to the shores of his long-lost love. Written with a blend of romanticism, erotica and melodic literature, the narrative of this story is unlike anything you’ve read before…

Book excerpt: In the world of Friday releases teeming with wannabes, the body of a starlet named Jeanie would have gone unnoticed. But what follows is a series of killings of young aspiring actresses—each more gory and perverse than the last—that has the police stumped. Kas Batterywalah, a disgraced former cop, is like a fish out of water when he’s not working on a case. Kassatta, a suspended military doctor, is not supposed to be in his life. And yet they are working together, in Mumbai, wading through the scandalous lives of the top stars, their perversions and sinister games, and racing against time to connect the dots. With more twists and turns than a roller coaster, Bollywood Deception is a thrilling, unputdownable read.

Download or read book Representing the Margin written by Ajay S. Sekher and published by Gyan Publishing House. This book was released on 2008 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work explores the representation of socio cultural margins of caste and gender in Indian contexts in works of fiction written in various Indian languages in the twentieth century, taking representative samples from Hindi/Urdu, Bengali, Kannada, Malayalam and English. The focus of enquiry is the narrativization of these important cultural and political questions in representative texts of fiction. What are the socio political and cultural implications and underpinnings of the representation of marginalization in the medium and genre of fiction, what could be the politics, ethics and aesthetics of such narrating, how far such representations are subversive or consensual/complicit, what are the limitations and pitfalls of such intervening radicalism in fictional narration all these questions are taken up in detail in the analyses. In the greater sense this study is also a critique of modernity and its discontents as it analyses the dialectics of modernity, its radical as well as reactionary aspects. A problematic premise of contextualizing the text and textualizing the context would also be prominent in the attempt. Fictional texts from five Indian languages including English (two texts from each language ) are incorporated in the study to ensure regional and linguistic representation within the limits of the availability of works in translation. Questions of class analytical perspectives in the context of Brahmanic patriarchy are explicated and critiqued. The need for a subaltern hermeneutics and the urgency of epistemological democratization are also discussed as a political and emancipatory outcome of the study. Both the formal as well as thematic concerns of the novel in the Indian languages are found to be shaped and determined by the material realities and associated attitudes and worldviews of caste and gender hierarchy emanating from internal imperialism. Though the ten texts chosen attempt intense critique of the gender question, the more profound and specific cultural question of caste evades comprehension and critical understanding. Caste often escapes as the un-representable in narration as it is in conversion.

Book excerpt: The Hormones: Physiology, Chemistry and Applications, Volume V covers the advances in understanding the nature and function of hormones. This seven-chapter volume is a continuation of Volume IV on the endocrinology of plant and non-mammalian animal hormones. The introductory chapters examine the structure, metabolite actions, and some other chemical aspects of pituitary hormones. The following chapter explores the physiological, biochemical, and phylogenetic aspects of thyroid hormones, as well as brief description of thyroid cytology and process kinetics related to the thyroid. This chapter also presents mathematical models describing the processes of accumulation and binding of iodide in the thyroid, along with the release and metabolism of thyroid hormone. These topics are followed by discussions on the methods and concepts used for in vivo studies with labeled steroids in man. A chapter focuses on the role of hormones on tumorigenesis and tumor growth. Another chapter considers the concepts of mode of action of other hormones, such as insulin, epinephrine, and estradiol. The concluding chapter treats some examples of endocrine disease from the standpoint of the biological problems. Endocrinologists, physiologists, biochemists, phylogeneticists, and researchers who are interested in expanding knowledge on hormones will find this book invaluable.
