From Answerability to Unfinalisability: Bakhtin's Philosophical Ideas on the Artistic Process. 4. Dostoevsky's Polyphonic Novel: Concepts and Categories. 5.

Bakhtin and Beyond: Implications of Bakhtin's Theories and Concepts for Humanities and Literary Theory. Glossary of Select Terms. Suggested Reading. This volume is a critical introduction to the life and works of Mikhail Bakhtin and his theoretical oeuvre. It outlines his major ideas such as dialogism, the dialogic imagination, heteroglossia, polyphony, carnival, chronotope and answerability, and their continued relevance in contemporary studies in literature and culture studies, and folk and popular cultures. Mikhail Bakhtin analyses the theorist's major contributions to literary criticism and the study of the novelistic genre, and examines Bakhtin's legacy for the humanities as a whole. The volume is a nuanced study of the ethical perspective in Bakhtin's work that locates literature at the intersection of various disciplines such as philosophy, sociology and political science.

Shifting Paradigms of Literary Historiography: Malayalam Literary History in the New Millennium. Index. Indigenous Imaginaries argues for a redefinition of humanities from a comparative perspective anchored in the regional literary traditions of India. These indigenous traditions have negotiated hegemonic structures of power over centuries through creative engagements with differences and dogmas. The central argument here concerns the need to reconfigure epistemologies that do not accommodate the compulsions of creativity and critical reflection in a multilingual society. Translation functions throughout this volume as the telos of a dialogic, interdisciplinary mode of cognition that questions the exclusivist claims of Euro-centric formulations of the literary. It argues that the act of reading becomes an act of recovery when prescriptive protocols and absolutist dictums are subverted through an intimate involvement with the subliminal, the unwritten and the inarticulate embedded in literary texts. The book analyses the moral imaginaries that animate the works of Rabindranath Tagore, Vaikom Muhammad Basheer, Mahasweta Devi, Amitav Ghosh, Bhalchandra Nemade, Anand, M. Mukundan, N. S. Madhavan, Agha Shahid Ali and Jean Arasanayagam as evidences of revisionist ways of radical rethinking that can propel us in the direction of an interdisciplinary domain of comparative humanities. It acknowledges the emergent cosmologies of the Global South that demand a self-critical and self-reflexive idiom that questions the binaries of pre-modern/modern, modern/postmodern, enlightened West/impoverished East, region/nation, and global/local.

The Confines of Creativity in the Subcontinent: Religion, Culture and Respectability/Bandana Chakrabarty. Culture, History and Politics: South Asian Narratives is a collection of essays which explore the region s shared pasts, formulative histories and its plural culture. Despite the distinctiveness of each people and nation, the spilling over of religions and languages across political borders weaves a complex web of commonalities. The contributors to this volume have discussed issues such as aesthetics, the coming into being of new faiths, encounters with outsiders as the people have journeyed through conflicts of various kinds and the need and impact of philosophies such as Sufism. Contemporary socio-political concerns also claim attention as the writers explore histories of conflict wars both global and local and processes of recovery and rehabilitation. Gender issues are another area which open discourses of social oppression, art forms, creativity and cultural differences. As the writers engage with them, they bring to the discussion their own experiences, memories and perspectives. The persistence of old hostilities, the almost invisible shifts of power, the changing social and artistic concerns all find a place in these discussions, opening out new areas of insight and understanding. The present volume s special significance lies in the comparative perspective that these eminent scholars from Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and India engage with. The essays, both individually and collectively, are a valuable contribution to South Asian Studies, an area whose strategic importance has long been on the political map. As such the book will be of great interest and use to research scholars and academicians of Comparative Literature, Cultural and Interdisciplinary Studies. (jacket).

Soft cover. Condition: New. This volume explores the inter-relations between languages, literatures and cultures in the context of South Asia in general and India in particular. The essays examine the cultural practices of authors, critics, commentators and translators in relation to their multiple vernacular traditions with the…ir disparate histories, to bring out the defining features of a cultural poetics of bhasha literatures as it has evolved over the centuries. The emphasis is on the ideas of circulation, negotiation, translation and exchange without any attempt to homogenise the diversities and differences into a narrative of uniformity. The essays also open up new ways of reading texts and ideas that address the dynamic interplay of socio-political and artistic-cultural contexts.
