Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “More than a century ago, Sir Henry Cotton had referred to Assam as a veritable ‘Cinderella’ waiting for her Prince Charming. Angered at such a reference Bordoloi had said, ‘We have not come here as beggars. We just want what is justice and what is perforce our right. Assam with her tea gardens, her oil fields, her coal fields, her mineral resources, her forest resources, have European share-holders sitting comfortably in their homes in England, while the people in Assam are referred to as Cinderellas!” – ‘Karmavir’ Nabin Chandra Bordoloi “Mr Bordoloi was an overzealous and dynamic personality, who essayed a role by virtue of his patriotism and courage which shall always remain exemplary.” - Bhulabhai Desai “In every epoch, India shall have the need for a charismatic and eloquent personality like Nabin Chandra Bordoloi in Assam, breathing the quest of success to freedom!” - Mahatma Gandhi “I belong to a family of loyalists. I gave up my law practice, my western garb and donned khadi, because my heart wanted it. A slave always remains a slave, remember that always. Tagore had given up his very knighthood! Gandhi sought redress from insolent and arrogant rulers. We in Assam chose to have non-violence, non-cooperation and civil disobedience to follow the path of Ahimsa as shown by Gandhiji.” – ‘Karmavir’ Nabin Chandra Bordoloi

This novel translated to English as The Seat of Power was published by Sahitya Akademi. The present book Modern Assamese Drama consists of two epoch making dramas- Gunabhiram Barua’s Ram Navami and Dr Birinchi Kumar Baruah’s Ebelar Nat. Anandaram Dhekial Phukan, Hem Chandra Barua and Gunabhiram Barua were the harbingers of the nineteenth century Renaissance in Assam. While in Calcutta he came under the influence of Raja Rammohan Roy, Vidyasagar and Keshav Chandra Sen, founder of the Brahmo Samaj. He was determined to fight social evils like child marriage and do away with the taboo against widow-remarriage. These are the leading themes of Ram Navami Nat; which appeared serialized in the Orunudoi from 1957. The plot veers around the natural urge of Ram as he falls in love with the child-widow Navami. The pair of lovers were crushed under the chariot wheels of social prejudices. The tragedy was written under the influence of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet and Bhabhuti’s Malati Madhavam. Even after the lapse of one hundred and fifty-five years the drama is not obsolete, although the socially conscious Gunabhiram Barua was not a propagandist but was fully aware of a writer’s artistic responsibility. Ebelar Nat is an avant-garde play covering only the period of half a day, without any change of scene within the bright and well-decorated drawing room of Madhuchanda Barua, whose make-up bespeaks the presence of an ultra-modern lady. The characters of the play are few, though the dialogues are plenteous and pointed. One interesting character is Manorama whose obesity and expensive ornaments testify to her husband’s ill-gotten money. Barua draws a vivid picture of the newly-emerging pseudo-aristocratic society after India’s independence, marked by consumerism and ruthless competition for the acquisition of wealth. While the young people are for the rejection of old social values, the young women favour complete emancipation from the tyranny of men. The death of the representative of the old order symbolises the dissolution of that very order.

Download or read book Nationalism in India written by Debajyoti Biswas and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-13 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers interdisciplinary perspectives on nationalism in India and examines the ways in which literary-textual representations intervene in debates regarding Hindu, Muslim and other forms of Indian nationalism. The book interrogates questions of nationalism and nationhood in relation to literary and cultural texts, historic-linguistic contexts and new developments in queer nationalism and ecological nationalism. It adopts a nation-wide emphasis, including chapters on Northeast India and other regions that have been historically underrepresented in studies of Indian nationalism. Moreover, the volume explores a rich variety of literary works by various writers over the past two centuries that have created, enshrined and contested ideas pivotal to the development of Indian nationalism. Located in a range of disciplines, contributors bring extensive expertise in Indian literature, language and culture to the question of nationalism. The chapters challenge many of the accepted ideas on nationalism and critically examine the politics behind such nationalisms. Moving beyond an approach to Indian nationalism based exclusively in the historicist-political paradigm, this timely book challenges established ideas in Indian nationalism and critically examines the politics of nationalisms in terms of textual representations. The book will be of interest to researchers working on South Asian studies, including Indian culture, history, literature and politics.
