• WOMEN’S WRITING IN LITERATURE

Mrs.Sangeetha J

Abstract: The American Dream is that any man or woman, despite of his or her background, can change their circumstances and rise as high as they are willing to work. This quote by Fabrizio Moreira holds good for men but for women this dream posses many challenges before it is fulfilled. Women are multifaceted and perform a significant role in society. Across the world women have their challenges to face in this man’s world. In India women are considered as the goddess from the ancient time however, it is also true that they are not treated as goddess. Considering them as goddess alone is not enough, it needs positive continuous effort and participation of both men and women to really bring women empowerment. Initially women were confined to domestic chores and kept within the four walls of the house. Gradually women started getting educated and as the rate of literacy in women increased there has been some progress. Women since ages have expressed their felling, thoughts, anger, experience and anxiety through their writing not only in English but also in other languages.

• Cleanth Brooks’ Critical Principles in the Light ofIndian Aesthetics

Dr.Indhu M. Eapen

Abstract: New Criticismdistinguishes itself from other schools of literary criticism by its “close reading” of texts, both poetry and fiction. The New Critics valued the independence of the text over its meaning. They believed in the structural unity of the text.This structural unity is synonymous to ‘harmony’ and ‘balance’ in a work of art. They used paradox, irony, ambiguity, and tension as means and mediators to discover the unified structure.Ancient Indian Poetics, like the Greek Poetics, concerns itself mainly with drama, but poetry in the Indian concept is an integral part of drama, and also since drama is a kind of poetry, there are several observations on the nature of poetryfound in Indian treatises on Poetics. This article focuses on CleanthBrooks’New Criticismin comparison with the Theory of Dhvanipropounded by Anandavardhana. Both theories emphasize that different kinds of meanings are present to lead the reader into a significant aesthetic experience.

• An analysis of the Concept of Exile in Edward Said

Dr Ram Niwas

Abstract: This paper studies the concept of “exile” in Edward Said’s writings. Said distinguishes exile from expatriate and refugees in the essay “Reflections on Exile”. In the case of expatriate there is the voluntary involvement from the person’s side. He decides to stay abroad on his own. Refugees on the other hand are bewildered people requiring urgent international assistance. Exiles alone are the cosmopolitan intellectuals having a touch of solitude and spirituality. Exile, for Said, is a symbol of freedom, emancipation and liberation. It is no exaggeration that liberation as an intellectual mission has now shifted to its unhoused, decentred and exilic energies, energies whose incarnation today is the migrant.

• Impact of Colonialism in R.K. Narayan's Malgudi Days

Anithalakshmi K H

Abstract: By using the apparatus of post-colonial theory, this paper examines how R.K. Narayan's Malgudi Days unfolds an intriguing analysis on the complexities involved in impact of colonialism at various levels involving cultural and day-to-day life transformation faced by natives living around fictional town called as Malgudi. This paper seeks to unravel how Narayan, by tacitly tracing the layers of life in every dimension possible - thematic, characteristically and narrative-wise propagates imperialistic traits while showing that there is another side without overlooking its negatives. The research also emphasizes how British culture and education had an influence, the economic consequences of colonial policies and what later social changes in Malawi. The paper further highlights the inevitable conflict between tradition and modernity by examining characters within a context of colonial. Narayan's storytelling utilizes irony, satire, symbolism and allegory as a critical lens to critique colonialism while also exalting the resilience and fullness of Indian culture. This wide-ranging examination reinforces a very detailed portrait of Colonial India, and provides readers with rich perspectives on Indian life in the period of British control, as well as during its aftermath.
