Soft cover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. Sharankumar Limbale s stories open up a brutal and cruel world conditioned and sanctioned by the caste system. They present an account of Dalit lives in post-independence India, with the Ambedkarite movement and the schisms within it, as a prominent backdrop. The anti-Dalit logic of reser…ved constituencies, the predicament of Dalit writing, the fallout of communal violence for those at the margins, the implications of festivals like Ganapati, the contradictions of job reservations, the horrors of the institution of schooling; family, childhood, friendships, love, sexuality-all take on dark new hues. They are also a rare and moving account of Dalit masculinity today. Dalit Brahmin is a sarcastic epithet for the urban, educated Dalit middle class who look down upon their own folk much as the Brahmins do, and seek to distance themselves from their caste identity. Yet, it is also this class which bears the responsibility of emancipating the Dalit masses from the chains of caste. The stories, told in the first or third person, speak directly to the reader and carry the authority of testimony. Each story sets out to correct, to inform, and to illuminate the changing lives of rural and small-town Dalits. Unsettling and exuding a stark raw power, these vibrant cameos-seamlessly translated by Priya Adarkar-comfortably bridge the difficult divides between imaginative literature, autobiographical fiction and documentary narrative. A must read for all those who love India and Indian literature.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - History-travelogue-autobiography, Mazha Pravas is all of these, none of these and a bit of each, being the first eyewitness Indian account of the upheavals and changing fortunes during the Rebellion of 1857. Vishnubhat Godse, a priest, wrote his memoirs on the urging of a historian who both… shaped and edited it. This book uses nineteenth century idiom and depicts contemporary familial, social and political life in cross-regional terms and straddles historiography and literature. Godse interpreted the Rebellion as a righteous response to British interference in Hindu and Muslim inheritance, and his assessment of its failure was a moral one: it was the rebels' unforgivable sin of killing women and children--against the shastras--that ensured their eventual defeat. Godse's narration plunges the reader straight into the heart of turbulent times and offers a slice of history that has impacted popular imagination for the last one hundred and fifty years. It illustrates how rigidly the social structure operated, how the British gradually gained control, and highlights the power that Vedic rites and their performers had over the population. This creative travelogue of the nineteenth century serves as one of the authoritative bookends of the historical discourse on Rani Lakshmibai, Jhansi, and 1857.
