While the poems freq…
Mnemonic Violence and Narratives of Pain

Representation of indigenous languages employing a religious screen for the discursive construction of students' postcolonial national identities

It also draws on the perspectives of 12 teachers and 424 students to record their responses. Taking insights from Paulo Freire's cultural invasion , Robert Blauner's interna…
A Re-orientalist Approach to Khaled Hosseini’s The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns

Re-orientalism extends itself as a concept where the Oriental author propagates a literature mystifying the East as barbaric and uncivilized and in turn validating the hypothesis to suppress and rule the Orient. T…

Social structure is based on power structure of any society that defines social identities on the basis of collective social ideology. The present study is based on Fairclough’s approach to Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) that takes discourse as social practice. In this study, an ef…
War Memory, Psychological Trauma, and Literary Witnessing
