Book excerpt: Situated at the south-eastern extremity of the Indian Peninsula, Tamil Nadu is bounded on the north by the State of Karnataka and the State of Andhra Pradesh, on the south by the Indian Ocean, on the east by the Bay of Bengal and on the west by the State of Kerala.

It stretched from Cape Comorian, the southern top of the Indian Peninsula, halfway up the east coast of Bengal.[2]Tamil region, the homeland of the Tamils, occupies the southern-most region of the erstwhile Madras Presidency.[3]The Tamil districts of the Presidency were Chingleput, North Arcot, South Arcot, Salem, Coimbatore, Nilgiris, Trichinoply, Tanjore, Madurai, Ramnad and Tinnevelly.[4] When reorganization of the States was made in 1956, regional adjustments were done and the State of Madras was created on November 1, 1956, as a lingual state with Tamil as its language.

Download or read book A Poetic Encounter With Identity written by Sridevi Selvaraj and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2022-03-19 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The kings sponsored culture a few centuries back, and still, the poets transcended the framework and have produced immortal verses. Now the consumer sponsors culture, and still, the artist transcends the rigid framework of market conditions. A Poetic Encounter with Identity speaks about Tamil consciousness as exemplified by popular culture. It is an attempt to re-understand these areas of thought from the perspective of popular culture. Viewers and readers decide the sale of movies and books; the creative genius of the artist decides art’s longevity. Even under rigid circumstances, art survives. States use popular culture as a tool for communicating their ideologies in a democratic government, as scholars argue. Tamil Nadu’s intellectual legacy stays behind the popular electorate, and its embedded ideologies and thought processes are the continuations of the great Tamil classical tradition – it can be assumed. It directs the philosophical writings too. Its desire for urbanisation and industrialisation reflects the people’s policies. Tamil Nadu accommodated a variety of aggressive approaches to its language, culture and social structure from various quarters. The multiple nuances in its expressions show us how the state has dealt with colonialism, nationalism and globalisation.

Download or read book Reproductive Politics and the Making of Modern India written by Mytheli Sreenivas and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2021-05-03 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Open-access edition: DOI 10.6069/9780295748856 Beginning in the late nineteenth century, India played a pivotal role in global conversations about population and reproduction. In Reproductive Politics and the Making of Modern India, Mytheli Sreenivas demonstrates how colonial administrators, postcolonial development experts, nationalists, eugenicists, feminists, and family planners all aimed to reform reproduction to transform both individual bodies and the body politic. Across the political spectrum, people insisted that regulating reproduction was necessary and that limiting the population was essential to economic development. This book investigates the often devastating implications of this logic, which demonized some women’s reproduction as the cause of national and planetary catastrophe. To tell this story, Sreenivas explores debates about marriage, family, and contraception. She also demonstrates how concerns about reproduction surfaced within a range of political questions—about poverty and crises of subsistence, migration and claims of national sovereignty, normative heterosexuality and drives for economic development. Locating India at the center of transnational historical change, this book suggests that Indian developments produced the very grounds over which reproduction was called into question in the modern world. The open-access edition of Reproductive Politics and the Making of Modern India is freely available thanks to the TOME initiative and the generous support of The Ohio State University Libraries.
