  • Reading the Representations of Children and Childhood(s) in Malayalam Films

    Open AccessRona Reesa Kurian, Preeti NavaneethARTICLECINEJ Cinema Journal2025

    This article examines the representation of childhood(s) and child characters in Malayalam cinema. Child characters have been constantly used since the beginning of Malayalam cinema to fit into the specific normative roles that are largely inconsequential to the plot. Juxtaposing the evolution of the Malayalam film industry with representations of child roles and child-based films through the decades, this article explores the hegemonic adult gaz…

  • Precarious Childhoods in Malayalam Films

    Open AccessRona Reesa Kurian, Preeti NavaneethARTICLEHumanities2025

    This article considers two Malayalam films, each of which uses ‘the child’ to reflect on ‘precarious childhood’. Ottaal (2014, Dir. Jayaraj) and Veyilmarangal (2019, Dir. Bijukumar Damodaran) present the ontological relationality of their child characters within their context and the political and social realities of the people in Kerala. The ecological disasters, economic catastrophes, and multilayered forms of social abjection push the children…

  • Delineating Ecoethics in Alexis Wright’s Carpentaria and The Swan Book

    Open AccessMinimol P G, P G Minimol et al.ARTICLEHumanities2025

    Literary works of contemporary Australian Aboriginal writers are widely read for their engagement with expressions of resilience and resistance against colonial supremacy. But these works have a greater significance in modern times, as they carry forward the Aboriginal cultural traditions of caring for the country (an Aboriginal concept that comprises people, their culture, and all living and non-living entities in a place, including the land) an…

  • A Mytho-Religious Reading of Kumbapattu of the Kurichiya Community of Kerala, India

    Open AccessDilsha K Das, Preeti NavaneethARTICLEReligions2025Referencias: 20

    Kumbapattu is a folk song of the indigenous Kurichiya community sung during Thira, a religious festival celebrated during the month of Kumbham (February). It narrates the mythical life and actions of Malakkari, an embodiment of Lord Shiva and the chief deity of the Kurichiya. A critical study of this 1051-line folk song, its ritual performance, and its ecological fountainheads can contribute to our understanding of the cultural and ritualistic en…

  • Cooking up Diversity

    Open AccessNabeela Musthafa, Preeti Navaneeth et al.ARTICLERupkatha Journal on Interdisciplina…2024

    Indian culture was initially introduced into children’s literature predominantly through the use of mythology and folklore. These stories often had a didactic element attached to them, which at times compromised on the ‘fun’ or ‘entertainment’ aspect of stories. However, in recent times, certain publishing houses have ventured to mitigate this gap by coming up with stories that are more engaging and relatable to children and, at the same time, re…

  • The Embodiment of the Post-human Child in Malayalam Films

    Open AccessRona Reesa Kurian, Rona Reesa Kurian Rona Reesa Kurian et al.ARTICLECINEJ Cinema Journal2023

    The adult-child binary positions the child in a developmental process toward rationality attained through becoming an adult. The child is not considered a ‘whole human’ or given the status of an ‘individual’ in a social context, as seen in the representations of child and childhood in Malayalam films. This study aims to analyze the post-human identity of children in films focusing on how social and cultural systems are portrayed in the selected f…
