In order to study the different stages in the stylistic development of yeats and his handling of imagery the present work has been divided into five main chapters. The first three chapters deal with the three distinct phases in his stylistic development and are entitled as Early style Middle style and style in the later poetry respectively. Generally yeats's poetic career has been divided into four phases early middle later and last but in the present study the whole corpus of his poetry has been considered into three groups only because our emphasis is mainly on the stylistic features of his poetry. In each chapter an attempt has been made to correlate the themes with the different constituents of style such as language music rhythm and various poetic devices etc. The discussion of the style in each of the three chapters is followed by a consideration of his imagery. The purpose is to underline the important images used in a particular phase and to show how their nature like other constituents of style is determined by the themes and experience of life. The fourth chapter undertakes a discussion of some of the major images to show how they develop through various phases of yeats's mental and artistic development. The fifth and the last chapter is devoted to the study of yeats's main sources of imagery through the long run of his poetic activity. This will enable us to have an insight into the complex origin of the images revealing the quality and nature of yeats's experiences and associations. Finally the concluding chapter attempts to sum up the achievement of yeats in the context of style and imagery. In order to highlight the uniqueness of yeats in this regard a brief of comparison with the practice of T.S. Eliot one of the pillars of modernist poetry is given. 152 pp.

The Bhoodan Gramdan Movement (1951 74) A review. There are a few books dealing with the thoughts of Gandhiji and Marx as interpreted by Lenin and Stalin but probably none dealing with the post Gandhi and post Stalin developments. This book tries to remove that lacuna by dealing with Vinoba the changed attitude of the Russian Marxists towards Gandhiji and his thinking and the changed view of Marx as represented by Erich Fromm after the publication of an earlier work of Marx his Economics and Philosophical Manuscripts. The book is divided in three parts. The first deals for the first time with the changing perception of Gandhiji among the Russian Marxists and the Indian Communists. It examines the validity of their criticism of the Gandhian thought in general and Vinoba in particular and finally shows the relevance of Gandhian thinking to solve the critical problems of the age. The second and the third parts provide material for a better understanding of both Gandhiji and Vinobaji in the context of Marxism. Since Vinobaji's vast material is in Hindi and Marathi and is hardly available in English translation this book may fulfil that Lacuna to an extent. The book will be very useful for researchers on Gandhian thought and the students seeking an understanding of the thoughts of Gandhiji Vinobaji and the changed perceptions about Karl Marx. 198 pp.

Globalization without doubt is the most controversial concept of the current times that has evoked a worldwide debate over its glossology as well as practice. Leaving apart the scientific technological and economic aspects which have received enough attention in the past of late there has been a shift in the thought perception of the scholars over the issue. The social cultural ecological environmental ethical and humanitarian dimensions of the process have been put to serious discussion and thought. The current volume also attempts to throw light on some of these significant aspects especially the issue of human rights. The concept of rights has been splintered into so many images that the primary issues have been overwhelmed by the secondary ones. The quintessence of all the rights is the right to development which permeates all the cores of the basic necessities for the all round development of man. Since good health is the prime need of everyone the environmental rights have also emerged as the pivotal issue struggling to score success in the human rights agenda. A considerable part of the volume deals explicitly with the human rights problems of refugees women minorities Dalits and the people affected by the terrorist related activities. In all the volume encompasses the multi faceted role of globalization in its connection with myriad of problems man has been placed into. The book it is hoped would be of interest to scholars policy makers concerned organizations and students alike. 214 pp.

They believe that reading occurs if person pronounces word correctly even if the person does not understand what he is reading. This thinking is continuously being felt in Sanskrit language too. But reading is a psycholinguistics process in which there is a great deal of interaction between though and language. Measurement of Sanskrit reading ability is not easier than that of any language. There are many models existing in English language and some in Hindi also. There is no scientific work on Sanskrit reading ability. So the author has taken problem as a challenge. This book contains What is reading. What happens in reading. Importance of reading ability reading skills.
