Sanday Reading :- Ecocriticism

 Hello readers!

                                 Here I am write about my understanding on response to the guest lecture session by Devang Nanavati. This is blog is related to post colonial studies. This is my academic task given by Dilip barad sir from Department of English Bhavnagar University. Devang Nanavati give the some thoughts on eco criticism. Here the video recording of the live session.

 Ecocriticism

                       " Ecocriticism is the study of the relationship between literature and the physical environment". Post Colonial ecocriticism stems from the realization that western centrism and anthropocentrism consolidate one another. It draws attention to the principles of social ecology and the question of environmental justice, expressing concern about the fact that subaltern humans are denied access to the resources of the land they inhabit and emphasising the sustainability of their cultural practices.

                           Ecocriticism was a term coind in the late 1970s by combining " criticism" with a shortened from of ' ecology', The science that investigates the interrelation of all forms of plant and animal life which each other and with their physical habitats.

                       Ecocritical post-colonial study is a newly emerged field in literary criticism. The theory combines the study of post-colonial environment in literary work and reveals a relationship between literature and the environment. Before the word ‘Ecocriticism’ was coined in the world of literature, from the beginning, writers were exclusively engaged presenting nature as source of inspiration and a privilege to evolve their ideas and pen them down.  

             With the introduction of the term Ecocriticism in literary criticism by the Association of the Study of Literature and Environment in 1993, scholars approached the analysis of texts to highlight environmental concerns and explore the roles of literature to bring awareness to society.  

                 Post-colonialism, on the other hand, as a response to colonization, studies the cultural and economic exploitation of the colonized/marginalized-- the natives and their land. As one can see the split between the two schools of thought-- nature versus culture--has been a trend for more than a decade. This split of thought has obliterated the fact that the environment is an integration of nature and culture, humans and nonhumans, animate and inanimate.

Film Reviews :- post Colonial Films :- Midnight's Children's, The Reluctant fundamentalist, The Black prince and Abdul and Victoria

 Hello readers!

              

                   Hear I am going to wrote about post Colonial films review Midnight's Children's, The Reluctant fundamentalist, The Black prince and Abdul. This task is given by Dilip barad sir from Department of English Bhavnagar University. So let's start. 

Midnight Children's 

 Midnight's Children is a 1981 novel by author Salman Rushdie. It portrays India's transition from British colonialism to independence and the partition of India. It is considered an example of postcolonial, postmodern, and magical realist literature. The story is told by its chief protagonist, Saleem Sinai, and is set in the context of actual historical events. The style of preserving his with fictional accounts is self-reflexive.

The story of Midnight's Children is the story of Saleem (played by Darsheel and Satya Bhabha), who was born at the precise stroke of midnight, and exchanged at birth with the child of an affluent Indian Muslim family, the Sinais. Saleem shares a gift that over a thousand children born between the hours of 12 and 1 the Midnight’s Children that historic night, were bestowed with: he has super powers. In a Bryan Singer movie, this could have led to a X-Men type battle between these children and the villainous humans who want to destroy them, but this film sticks largely to Saleem’s story, as he battles his destiny through two wars and the emergency.

In the film most surrounding of the children who was in the stoke of the midnight during 14th Aug 1947 With magic power. In the movie everything happening between two characters Saleem and Shiva  and another like Parvati, Ahema Sinai, Amin , Mary perira etc.... In the film one question rise that what is fault of that children which born midnight? What luck ,all the children are sad. The narrator and protagonist of the novel. Born at the moment of India’s independence and blessed with the powers of telepathy and an uncanny sense of smell, Saleem tells his extraordinary life story as his body begins to crumble, an account that significantly parallels the history of postcolonial India. As a narrator, Saleem can be both unreliable and self-centered at times.

The main idea of hybridity in culture and identity we can see in the movie, as per the quote 'Let reach to be poor and poor to be reach' Saleem, actually, the son of British man William Methwold and poor Marathian lady and the Shiva was the son of Ahemad Sinai and Amina, but, Mary, a nurse in the hospital changed these both baby boy with each other because her lover was a Marxist and pursued mary to protest against elite class.

The Reluctant fundamentalist 

                       The Reluctant Fundamentalist a novel written by Pakistani Writer Mohsin Hamid and then adopted in film directed by Mira Nair in 2014. The story is about the young man Changez Khan who attracted to American Business culture. He was an intellectual and respected person in American wall street business company. 

                   The film started with the interview of Change Khan By Bobby in which Change Khan narrated his story about the his life in America. The hero of the novel was very young, intellectual, businessman and highly reputed. There he was living a good life with his beloved Erica, a very good artist in photography. But suddenly all the things changed. 

                         Change after the attack on WTC tower. All people look towards him like he is terrorist, he insulted by FBI and many American fellows and abused him. Once, he loved America like his native land but after abusing and insulted her sincerity he came back to Pakistan as University professor.

The Black prince 

    If we see this movie with the perspectives of the postcolonial studies so we have to apply Edward said's 'Orientalism' and also apply the race theory. We can say that why western countries and especially America looking towards Muslim countries as countries of terrorism? It is all about the illusion of america that every Muslim are terrorist. America Know that if we want be in power position so that we have to destroyed all Muslim countries in the name of terrorism.

the movie also Change faced problem because he belong to Muslim country. All countries and their movies show the villains almost are Muslim. They succeeded to built this kind of stereotype in the mind of other religion's people. America only see their 3000 Americans died in this attack but they do not see that they killed billions of Muslims in Gulf war and in Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria wars. If world want to make peace in the earth then all have to protest against America to stop terrorism.

Abdul & victoria

             Victoria & Abdul is a 2017 British biographical comedy drama film directed by Stephen frears and written by Lee tall. The film is based on the book of same name by sharabani Basa, about the real life relationship between queen victoria and her Indian Muslim servant Abdul Karim. 

                               The filmmakers have taken factual liberties the film is “based on real events mostly,” which is very cute but meaningless.Fazal’s Karim think of colonialism. We never know. “It is my humble privilege to serve Her Majesty,” he says. Later, he puts on his best Forrest Gump to tell the queen that “Life is like a carpet.” He means that all kinds of things are woven into our fabric but he really comes off as no more than a doormat.There’s only one major problem: The man at the center, Abdul Karim. He remains a blank canvas, his motives unexplored, his interior or domestic life uncaptured. He is called “the brown John Brown” and offers no riposte.“Victoria & Abdul” comes out only a few months after “Viceroy’s House,” which explored how India and Pakistan were carved from the former British Empire in 1947.   

This movie is a treat for the eyes with gorgeous Scottish locations, stylishly detailed costumes, stately summer palaces, and consists of many professional performances. It's good to see Dame Dench give a strong performance following some by the numbers of late. It also holds the attention for most of its run time by offering a tell  story of a little known relationship between this long reigning Queen, with a randomly selected Indian who was one of two 'local subjects' brought to England to present her with a specially minted gold coin .  Appreciation from British ruled India. The close relationship that follows between her and one of the guest presenters tends to become perhaps a little too romanticised for the level of believability expected of its audience. Victoria's Burqa comments made at her first sight of Abdul's wife seem far too 'fanciful' if not highly doubtful.

"This story is based on real events...well, mostly". Make of that what you will.

                            

                                        Thank you... 

Thinking Activity : Imaginary Homelands :selected Essays :- Salman Rushdie

 Thinking Activity : Imaginary Homelands by salman rushdie

Hello reader's!

                       Here I am going to wrote about Imaginary Homelands selected essay by salman rushdie. This blog is regarded to my academic Activity. This task is given by my professor Dilip Barad sir from Department of English MKB university.

About Salman Rushdie 

                               Sir Ahmed Salman Rushdie is a British Indian novelist and essayist whose work, combining magical realism with historical fiction is primarily concerned with the many connections, disruptions, and migrations between Eastern and western civilizations, with much of his fiction being set on the Indian subcontinent. 

His notable works 

• Midnight's children 
• The satanic verses 
• The Moore's last sigh
• Shamar the clown 

"Imaginary Homelands "

                                   The essay was written after the publication of the Midnight's children. This never was well res. Ponded in western countries but, in indian it was rejected by Indians, and it was a request from a diasporic writer to the country of his origin to accept him. 

                                All essays are based on the experience of Salman Rushdie's and his contemporary time scenario. This book nicely collected the controversial issues of the dead. In these days Indira Gandhi was ruling. In this session one of the novelist whose name Rushdie did not reveal, began his contribution by reciting a Sanskrit shaloka, and then  instead of translating the Verse he declared. " Every education Indian will understand what I have just said", This was unaccessible as, in the room were Indian writer and scholars from conceivable backgrounds such as chaistian, parasi, Muslim and sikh.

This book " Imaginary Homelands' is divided into six sections.

1. Midnight's children 
2. Politics of India and Pakistan 
3. Indo Anglian literature. 
4. Movie and Television 
5. Experience of imgrants Indian migrants to British 
6. Thatcher /flout election question of Palestine.

                               "  writers in my position, exiles or emigrants or expatriates". Rushdie says in this collection's title essay, " are haunted by Sone sense of loss, some urge to reclaim, to look back, even at the risk of being mutated into pillars of salt". Such a writer comes to understand, however, that "we will not be capable of reclaiming preasely the thing that was lost; that we will, in short, create fictions, not actual cities or villages, but invisible ones imaginary homelands, Indian's of the mind." In his own fictions, Salman Rushdie has created just such imaginary homelands.

                              Another point which increases the complexity of the controversy Is that the description of India that Midnight's children attempts, is very pessimistic. Thus, it is critical in India for it's despairing tone But he denied that the book is not despairing or nihilistic, Ruther he would say"he tried to set up  tension between from and content of the narrative.

Commonwealth literature does not exit 

                               Commonwealth literature does not exit " there is a matter of English studies are taken to include commonwealth literature. Rushdie also gave many examples of an importance and an ignorance of commonwealth literature. Common wealth literature appears, it is that body of writing created. Now days commonwealth literature was sounding very unlike able indeed. Not only was it a ghetto, but it was actually an exclusive ghetto.

Attenborogh's Gandhi 

                              Salman Rushdie focuses on the view of " Attenborogh's Gandhi - a film based on biography of mahatma Karam Chand Gandhi. This is the best film of 1983 in film industry. Salman Rushdie says God help the film industry after making this type of film. He critically shows his ideas on that film. He says that, why film is about only gandhi? Why no Subhash Bose? Why no Tagore? In the film there are many scenes of violence happeneds before 1947.in this essay Salman Rushdie says about the scene of Amritsar massacre and the scene of killing Gandhi by nathuram. He also says another fact of Gandhs " Brahmachrya" Nehru was not Gandhi's disciple.

Conclusion

                         A work of literature is an expression of feeling, experience. But it doesn't mean to ferce him to leave the country, we Indian his way Salman Rushdie gives his critical ideas on different subjects. From these subjects he has shown some facts of India, Britain and gandhi also. He shows his power of critical analysis throughout " Imaginary Homelands". They were equals and they argued fiercely in a matter of freedom movement.

                                           Thank you... 

Thinking Activity :- A Tempest Aime cesaire

 Hello readers!

                         Here I am sharing my view about journey of prof Balaji Rangnathan sir. Those days are memorable forever, we have learnt many good and new things about syllabus as well as outside world.

                            So Balaji sir was deal with post colonial studies, which was hard paper to read and understand. On those days sir talked about various topic or unit like 

• Black skin white mask :- Frantz fanon
• A Tempest :- Aime cesaire
• Orientalism :- Edward said
• Imaginary Homelands :- Salman Rushdie

                      So,let's she The Tempest simultaneously studying and applying the post colonial theories on it. 

A Tempest by Aime cesaire

                       To understand A Tempest we have to first understand the Tempest by William Shakespeare. We have already gone through it in our class. Now, if we talk about oriantalisam, it was a entire book on American and Arabic world.

                             As being primarily a post colonial play because it often possess the issues which had been raised with it's contemporary the darkness which also connects with the idea or a issue of polish exile experiences of being colonialized for example, Joseph conard, and he wrote on his experience of being colonized. 

The Tempest by William Shakespeare 

                                 Shakespeare's plays are more classified in history, so while displaying the classified properties of Shakespearean work riches to the final place of the time where betray, murder, love, sex were the unique characteristics of his plays.

                               Shakespeare has a tremendous commands on creative writing, amazingly about the Ghosts, but we find the insecurities of writing and political unrest becomes the reason of his projection of negative emotions of society. The same way the Tempest can be seen as traditionally. Where the end of the play as we know that prosspero well brek his all staff. It seems as the last seen before Shakespeare bows out the English theaters. 

Nationalism in the Tempest 

                               In begins with the resistance And then resistance  becomes the a meteorology and ideology leads to a Revolution here we find voicing of protest in resistance we can see at that time, with instance thought Tempest,Shakespearean play's rise huge resistance.he tries to organize a rewards but he's not succeed, post colonial aspects.

                              We can say colonial modernity and the colonial modes of controlling though powerful to colonized in a subject to democratic man Prospero is very democratic man he is not looking at opinions at the positions of people around the if you read Shakespeare's play you will find he stands in a position of God, produced and controlling seasons in the play is able to create storms with this magic. 

Colonialism 

                                So at the end of the play is showing the clasaic sign within the victory of true character. Prospero's administration, proaero's, Shakespeare compliments everything is orderd, Prospero is able to controlled everything but at the end he is very tired. Shakespeare won't show the victory of caliban but with perspective of post colonial studies we grab the winner in the Tempest.

                                                    Thank you... 

Thinking Activity :- Black skin white masks

 Hello readers!

                              Here I am sharing my view about journey of prof. Balaji Rangnathan sir. Those days are memorable forever, we have learnt many good and new things about syllabus as well as outside world. 

                     So, Balaji sir was deal with post colonial studies, which was hard paper to read and understand. On those days sir talked about various topic or unit like. 

•  Black skin white masks :- Frantz fanon 
• A Tempest :- Aime cesair 
• Orientalism :- Edward said 
• Imaginary Homelands :- Salman Rushdie 

                       So here I am wrote about first unit black skin white masks by frantz fanon.so lats see

 Black skin white masks

                          At the very beginning of the session or a lecture he throw some light on the different binaries between the colonialism and post colonialism. Firstly I am impressed by sir's tone or control power on language. Sir very good command and influency ever the language. For a second I also wish to have a that kind of command on language. 

                             During this discussion has given very relevant example with the topic, with which we understand more about that notion sir say that it is good from to introduce a work in psychology with a statement of its methodological point of view. 

                     We all know that black skin white masks is divided into Eight chapter. Balaji sir is very well explain to this chapter and also give many interesting examples for this chapters. 

• Chapter 1 

                                  Language has power. That we all know Ex. English language. It is a global language. So in this work French language has power. Black people speaks their own native language. So they seems inferior. 

                               Here, Rangnathan sir gave very good point of caste in post colonial studies marginality, completely seals with inferiority, minority. 

• Chapter 2

                               Now In second chapter we can see the that black women as desire and the white men are symbol of power desire is a part of life. Here again we can take example, story of fisherman and his wife. Which was taken by Virginia in lighthouse. Fanon here searching for binaries. Desire to be white it is a biological idea and society will never accept this idea because it has idea of regulation not of tentative. 

•  Chapter 3 

                                     As sir discussed previously that desire is a part of our life and it is constant in second chapter we see that woman of colour who want to get white man. 

   

                            Here in next chapter in the man of colour who want white woman so when we talk about desire at that time there is no any gender discrimination but when we knew the reasons which and might be we will not get. 

                              In this chapter we come to know that white women like black man more then white so here is also a controversy because of white man who wants white women. 

• Chapter 4

                                         This chapter started with the OCTAVE MANNONI'S  work regarding " phycology of colonization" Which this reference of phycology phenomenon between colonized colonizer. Fanon criticize the mannion's idea and say it is very much a problem of colonialism is a clear "objective human Altitude and a" played Act of Teritory of Desire" they are captured the know how to rule. 

    

                                 Here we can see the stereotype of happy, Darkies, uppitnegroes and white saviours all come from the need of white people to feel that their power in society is good and not recist.

• Chapter 5 

                                    In this chapter when an wrote about his own expression as a black man. 

• Chapter 6

                                In this chapter fanon connect mistakes with psychology white people fear black men. Partly it has to do with white mens repressed sexuality and their struggle hang ups about black men's penises. More generally, black means are viewed as bodies, which makes them seem like mind less, violence, sexual, animal beings. 

• Chapter 7

                                Here this chapter is about recognition of fantasy. How different styles of white rule shaped black people in America and Martinique. 

• Chapter 8

                                       This is the last chapter and fanon come to conclusions. Fanon does not want to be a black man, he wants to se a man, plain and simple. He knows that different issues around the world need different solutions and warns against "appeals for reason or respect" that are unlikely to produce change. 

     

                                         Thank you... 

          

Thinking Activity : Then & Now : colonialism, imperialism, post colonialism, Globalization, Environmental Studies

Hello reader's!

                          Here I am going to wrote about this terms colonialism, imperialism, post colonialism, Globalization and Environmental Studies. We all know that post colonial study deals with the effects of colonization on cultures and societies and those societies responses. This blog is related to my academic Activity is given by my professor Dilip Barad sir from Department of English MKB university. So let's start. 

Introduction 

                       Post is a disciplinary field and an interdisciplinary methodology grounded in post - structuralist and post modern critique. As a discipline, it studies the effects of imperialism, colonialism, and neocolonialism on societies and individuals. It address questions about identity, hybridity, gender, sex, race, species, language, knowledge, modernity, transnationality, multiculturalism, and cosmopolitanism, among many others. Colonialism generally refers to the period when European countries would formally tack control of another country of black or brown people. The effects of colonization can range greatly and very from area to area, culture to culture, origin of the colonizers, and many more factors. 

Colonialism 

                               Colonialism is the policy of a country seeking to extend or retain it's authority over other people or territories, generally with the aim of economic dominance. In the process of colonization, colonizers may impose their religious language, economics, and other cultural practices on indigenous peoples. Colonialism is a relationship between an indigenous majority and a minority of foreign invaders. 

                          Colonialism is a practice of domination, which involves the subjugation of one people to another. One of the difficulties in defining colonialism is the is hard to distinguish it from imperialism. The term colony comes from thr Latin word colony, meaning farmer. 

                               Colonialism is strongly associated with the European colonial period starting with the 15th century. When some European states established colonizing empires. The foreign administrators rule the territory in pursuit of their interests, seeking to benifit from the colonised region's people and resources. 

Post colonialism 

                        Post colonialism is the critical academic study of the cultural academic study of the cultural legacy of colonialism and imperialism, focusing on the human consequences of the colonized people and their lands post colonial theory looks at issues of power, economics, politics, religion, and culture and how these elements work in relation to colonial hegemony. Post colonial criticism also takes the form of literature composed by authors that critique Euro - centric hegemony.   

                                 The term post colonial studies may be preferred to post colonialism, as the ambiguous term colonialism could refer either to a system of government or to an ideology or world view underlying that system. Post colonialism may be thought of a reaction to or departure from colonialism in the same way post modernisam is a reaction to modernisam. The term post colonialism itself is model on post modernism, with which it shares certain concepts and methods. 

Difference between colonialism and post colonialism 

                                The difference between colonialism and post colonialism can be tricky and confusing. Colonialism generally refers to the period when European countries would formally tack control of another country of black or brown people. 

                                Post colonialism provide a framework to examine how such colonizing took place and the impact it has on how we see the world, post - colonialism also notes the while formal colonization might be defanct, Europe and the United states can still tend to treat other countries like De - facto colonies. 

                               The difference between colonialism and post colonialism has often stymied us. When we hear people talk about post colonial theory or post colonial thought. 

Ania Loomba 's views on colonialism and post colonialism 

                            Lamba is a professor of English at Jawaharlal Nehru university, new Delhi and a specialist in renaissance drama, and it is understandable that among the best pages of colonialism and post colonialism are the ones on colonialism and literature. 

                               The title of Ania Loomba 's colonialism /post colonialism indicates the lien she will tack in introducing us to post colonial studies. She will not see them as binaries, locked in permanent opposition, but as categories whose boundaries must be broken down so that we can see how the one inheres within the other. 

                           Ania Loomba's book is  also notable for the rigor, the conciseness, and the Lucidity with which she traces the contexts of contemporary colonial discourse analysis. Starting with maxim's intense critique of the collusion of capital such as deffication found their way into the indictment of colonialism carried out by intellectual such as Aime cesair and frantz fanon, Loomba moves on to discuss the relevance of Antonio Gramsci concept of " hegemony" for the analysis of colonialism. Her intention, then is not to give us a superficial picture of a setting sites, but a detailed analysis of a fast evolving subject located at an intriguing intersection of theory. 

Imperialism 

                         Imperialism is a policy or ideology of extending the true over peoples and other countries, for extending political and economic access, power and control, though employing hard Power especially military force. But also soft power.  Although imperialism and colonialism focus on the supperssion of another, if colonialism refers to the process of a country taking physical control of another, imperialism refers to the political and monetary dominance, either formally or Imformally. 

                         Colonialism and imperialism are often used interchangebly, but they are two different words having different meaning. As both colonialism and imperialism domination of the other, scholars often find it hard to differentiate the two. 

                          Though both the words underline suppression of the other, colonialism is where one nation assumes control over the other and imperialism refers to political or economic control, either formally or Imformally. In simple words, colonialism can be thought to be a practice and imperialism as the idea driving the practice. 

Globalization 

                            Globalization is the word used to describe the word's economics, cultures, and populations, brought about by cross-border Trande in goods and services, technology and flows of investments people, and information. 

                              Though many scholars Place the origins of Globalization in modern times, others trace it's history to long before the European age of Discovery and voyages to the new world, and some event to the third millennium BC. 

                              The term Globalization first appeared in the early 20 th century 'developed it's current meaning some time in the second half of the 20th century, and came into popular use in the 1990s.

Environmental Studies 

                   Environmental Studies   is a multidisciplinary academic field which systematically studies human interaction with the environment. Environmental Studies connects principles from the physical science, commerce the humanities and social sciences to address complex contemporary environment issue. 

                           The Environmental Studies major allows students to explore the relationships between people and their environment. The degree also prepares many graduates to enter graduate degree programs in most science, such as Environmental planning, resources management ; engineering ; law or public policy. 

Colonialism 

                                This concluding chapter offers an inevitable particular examination of challenges, indicating some new directions post colonial studies has either taken, or must take. Many commentators have suggested that post colonial studies should not be thought of as a discrete field so much as an approach that has been honed by work on colonial dynamics and legacies in several. Disciplines; nevertheless. All of these demand fresh thinking about colonial History, hierarchies, gender dynamics, and community. 

                                          Thank you... 

Thiongo 'o, Tharoor and films on colonial History

 Thiongo 'o, Tharoor and films on colonial History

Hello reader's!

                       Here I am sharing view of Shashi Tharoor. In this we found revising history, Indian answer to western science & technology, knowledge system, about language, literature, science and technology etc.

                      Shashi Tharror was born 9 March 1956. He is an Indian politician, winter and a former career international diploma who is currently serving as member of parliament, lok sabha from thiruvanthapuram, kerela, science 2009.Tharoor is an acclaimed writer, having authored 18 bestselling works of fiction and non fiction since 1981. Which are centered on India and it's history, culture, film, politics, society, foreign policy, and more related themes. He is also the author of hundreds of columns. And articles in publications such as the new York times, the Washington post, time, news week, and the Times of India.

                           Tharoor began his political career by joining the Indian national congress and successfully represented the party from Thiruvanthapuram, kerela by winnin in the lok sabha election and becoming a member of parliament. He also wrote regular columns for the times of India. Tharoor has been a columnist in echa of India 's three best known English - language newspaper, most recently for the Hindu and in weekly column.

" An Era of Darkness"

              Shashi Tharror' s none fiction work ' An Era of Darkness', published in the UK as inglorious Ampire : what the British did to India, arising out of a speech he delivered at the oxford union, was published in 2016, it soid over 50,000 copies in eight hardback reprints within six months of publication. He has published two other non fiction books. Why I am a Hindu and the paradoxical prime minister both of which have been published in the Indian subcontinent by Aleph book company.

                        In the "Era of Darkness" Shashi Tharoor mostly doing arguments to established about British colonial rites whose violence experience for Indian society. Here I notify that most off the his work represented on British exploitation of India so that he carried the day for Tharoor in an oxford debate not too long ago. 

                        Tharoor even demands a taken restitution and public apologise from the British for all the horm they had caused India. Shashi Tharoor wants to teaches the young Indian the importance of knowing the past and talking about it. Tharoor teaches us deep way about satire irony and wisdom learner's licence. We very week know that British government everything was doing for increased own wealth from India but they gave new more things.
