The tone of these essays ranges from the deeply felt and personal to the most irrepressibly postmodern. The subjects handled are as diverse as the sense of place and how poetry is inspired by it the question of reading and response and their relation to theory the playfulness of postmodernism post diasporic literary history the discipline of English and the English teacher in India globalization and cosmopolitanism transnationalism making and breaking traditions dramatic pedagogy translation the archive imperialism India and Australia India and Canada Bakhtinian discourse the region caste and so on.

Indra is. 244 pp.…
