Beyond the Archive Gap: The Kiplings and the Famines of British Colonial India
Members of Rudyard Kipling's nuclear family lived in India for approximately thirty years (roughly 1870–1900), and all four Kiplings (Rudyard, Lockwood Kipling, Alice MacDonald Kipling, and Alice Fleming) published writing based on that experience. As postcolonial readers of Rudyard Kipling’s work in particular have often pointed out, their representation of life in the British Raj was highly ideological and often quite limited. For that reason, …

With reference especially to a series of Tamil-language texts as well as Tamil writers working in English (such as R. K. Narayan), Shankar argues that the production of “vernacular knowledg…
Progressivism and Modernism in South Asian Fiction: 1930–1970
This essay aims to periodize South Asian literary modernism in fiction, noting its several identifiable phases and arguing that its stylistic peak occurred after independence, in the era of the ‘New Story’ movement of the 1960s. Earlier phases in South Asian modernism included the Bengal Renaissance, as well as the Progressive Writers’ Movement, which began in the early 1930s. The strides made by the Progressive Writers clearly nourished the emer…
"More than "priestly mumbo-jumbo: Religion and authorship inAll About H. Hatterr
This essay proposes an unconventional approach to the late colonial and postcolonial Indian writer G.V. Desani, author of the famously difficult novel All About H. Hatterr (1948). The essay draws on heretofore overlooked biographical materials, Desani’s own literary journalism, as well as the many revisions Desani made to the novel itself, to argue that Desani’s central theme may not be linguistic hybridity, as previously thought, so much as the …
