书目名称 | The Indian Imagination | 副标题 | Critical Essays on I | 编辑 | K. D. Verma | 视频video | | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | The Indian Imagination focuses on literary developments in English both in the colonial and postcolonial periods of Indian history. Six divergent writers - Aurobindo Ghose (Sri Aurobindo), Mulk Raj Anand, Balachandra Rajan, Nissim Ezekiel, Anita Desai, and Arun Joshi - represent a consciousness that has emerged from the confrontation between tradition and modernity. The colonial fantasy of British India was finally dissolved in the first half of this century, only to be succeeded by another fantasy, that of the reinstituted sovereign nation-state. This study argues that the two phases of history - like the two phases of Indian writing in English - together represent the sociohistorical process of colonization and decolonization and the affirmation of identity. | 出版日期 | Book 2000 | 关键词 | critical theory; culture; fashion; gender; identity; imperialism | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-349-61823-1 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-349-61823-1 | copyright | Palgrave Macmillan, a division of Nature America Inc. 2000 |
