Elements Of Hinduism In Chandra’S Red Earth And Pouring Rain, Corinne M. Ehrfurth
Elements Of Hinduism In Chandra’S Red Earth And Pouring Rain, Corinne M. Ehrfurth
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In her article "Elements of Hinduism in Chandra's Red Earth and Pouring Rain" Corinne M. Ehrfurth explores how Hindu tenets in the Bhagavad-gītā continue to provide a didactic framework that inspires contemporary Indian literature. Ehrfurth highlights the similarities between characters, consumed with doubt and seeking understanding, in the ancient Indian text and Vikram Chandra's novel Red Earth and Pouring Rain where protagonists represent the diversity and complexity of Hinduism to a global audience. In examining how the novel's protagonists handle dilemmas, Ehrfurth presents Chandra's novel as illuminating how healthy and destructive actions affect one's ability of achieving the peaceful …
History And Politics In Parthasarathy's Play Aurangzeb, Shubh Brat Sarkar
History And Politics In Parthasarathy's Play Aurangzeb, Shubh Brat Sarkar
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his article "History and Politics in Parthasarathy's Play Aurangzeb" Shubh Brat Sarkar analyzes the use of history in a dramatic text, the underlying politics and ideology of a literary product, and the modes by which the materials are shaped through dramaturgy. The name Aurangzeb, the title of the play, has a strong presence in history textbooks and has perhaps become an integral part of a grand historical, "Indian" nationalist discourse. In the play multiple contradictions co-exist and find new projections in translations and theater adaptations in different historical contexts. Indira Parthasarthy's 1974 play is based on events leading …
Redefinitions Of India And Individuality In Adiga's The White Tiger, Kathleen Waller
Redefinitions Of India And Individuality In Adiga's The White Tiger, Kathleen Waller
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In her article "Redefinitions of India and Individuality in Adiga's The White Tiger" Kathleen Waller discusses Indian individualism as being supported by a democratic and secular society, but also stymied by traditions and socioeconomic realities which keep most of its people living in poverty. In The White Tiger, Adiga challenges Indian culture to create a society in which individuals are truly free. Waller argues that the relevance of Adiga's novel is that it is social structure and practices of hierarchy keep many people in the lower classes of Indian society and that this state of affairs is counter …
Africa And India In The Novels Of Dai And Emecheta, Debarshi Prasad Nath, Juri Dutta
Africa And India In The Novels Of Dai And Emecheta, Debarshi Prasad Nath, Juri Dutta
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In their article "Africa and India in the Novels of Dai and Emecheta" Debarshi Prasad Nath and Juri Dutta discusses the work of two writers belonging to different continents, India and Nigeria. Interestingly, the novels of the two writers Dutta is analyzing — Lummer Dai and Buchi Emecheta —never heard of each other. Both novels are based on the custom of bride price, both writers speak out against the stifling rigidity of traditional customs, and uphold aspects of modernity in languages other than their native tongues. At the same time, both writers affirm the sanctity of the traditional institutions and …
Shakespeare Reception In India And The Netherlands Until The Early Twentieth Century, Vikram Singh Thakur
Shakespeare Reception In India And The Netherlands Until The Early Twentieth Century, Vikram Singh Thakur
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his article "Shakespeare Reception in India and The Netherlands until the Early Twentieth Century" Vikram Singh Thakur locates Shakespeare in two different cultural contexts by looking at its reception in The Netherlands and India. His analysis is based on the fact that Shakespeare was a foreign playwright to both cultures yet both have gradually assimilated his works into their respective cultures and made him, probably, the most performed foreign playwright since the 1870s. Thakur aims at understanding how the reception of a work in different cultures is mediated by various social, cultural, historical, and ideological sieves through which the …
Ancient Hindu Society And Eliot's Ideal Christian Society, Anita Bhela
Ancient Hindu Society And Eliot's Ideal Christian Society, Anita Bhela
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In her article "Ancient Hindu Society and Eliot's Ideal Christian Society" Anita Bhela examines the influence of Hindu thought and Hindu philosophy on T.S. Eliot's critical writings. In The Idea of a Christian Society Eliot gives a hypothetical account of an ideal society that would contribute towards the well-being of all its members, while in Notes towards the Definition of Culture he enumerates the essential conditions needed for the growth and survival of culture. Bhela argues that religion and culture were inseparably interrelated in Eliot's mind. She then traces similarities in the concepts of family, culture, and religion as expressed …
Women's Worlds In The Novels Of Kandukuri And Gilman, Suneetha Rani
Women's Worlds In The Novels Of Kandukuri And Gilman, Suneetha Rani
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In her article "Women's Worlds in the Novels of Kandukuri and Gilman" Suneetha Rani discusses Veeresalingam Kandukuri's Satyaraja Poorvadesayatralu (Satyaraja's Travel to the Distant Lands) and Charlotte Perkins Gilman's Herland. While the novels were published in two different contexts — one in pre-independence India and the other in pre-World War I in the U.S., one in Telugu and the other in English, one by a man and the other by a woman — there is an interesting connecting thread that brings them together. Both were satires on the contemporary male chauvinistic world. While the Telugu novel pleads for a better …
