Scapegoats of the justice system: Problematizing necropolitics and state violence of Black disability in select American films
Understanding the politics of race in relation to a social marker like disability can provide a more nuanced perspective to understand the lived experiences of individuals within intersecting oppressive structures. While progress has been made in recognising the rights and privileges of black disabled people, the socio-political landscape has been layered with exclusions, and the deployment of necropolitics by the white, able-bodied individuals r…
Decoding posthuman realities in the post-apocalyptic context: A schizoanalytic study of human and robot in Becky Chambers’ A Psalm for the Wild-Built
Posthuman interventions in submerged histories: Reconstructing history through memory in Rivers Solomon’s The Deep
A community's collective memory is predominantly shaped by dominant power structures that generate and contain canonical narratives. Within the post-colonial context, this social memory remains in conflict with certain ancestral or tribal memories that witnessed the violent legacies of colonization. These memories, which are transmitted across generations-termed postmemory-aims to reclaim and expose the officially silenced histories through the p…

A Postmodern Psychoanalytic Critique of Narrative Disruptions and Subversions in Dalit and Post-apocalyptic Narratives: A Comparative Study
This research study investigates narrative disruptions and subversions in Dalit and post-apocalyptic literature using a postmodern psychoanalytic methodology. Drawing on the concepts of Jacques Lacan and Homi K. Bhabha, the research argues that these literary genres use language and plot to subvert and disrupt dominant power structures, social hierarchies and hegemonic discourses. The study examines a few works of Dalit and post-apocalyptic ficti…
Problematizing the Postmodern Condition in Em and the Big Hoom
This paper investigates and problematizes the postmodern condition in Jerry Pinto's novel, Em and the Big Hoom. The complex, medical, psychoanalytic, and psychiatric history of the characters’ psyche is traced out in the novel. Postmodernism is an outgrowth of Modernism. It denotes the status of contemporary society, the revolutions, modifications, and shifts in science, literature, and arts. Taking into account all of the significant shifts from…
The Future of Colonialism in Australian Indigenous Fiction – A Psychoanalytic Study of Trauma in The Swan Book and Terra Nullius

The Swan Book, a 2013 Australian novel by Alexis Wright, digs deeply into subjects like climate catastrophes and the repressive condition of the natives in a future Australia. Claire G. Coleman's fantasy novel Terra Nullius, on the other hand, presents a futuristic Australia in which many colonial themes are s…

Jasoda contributes to this research by exhibiting the women characters belonging to varied societal standards undergoing abuse and oppression regardless of the hierarchal structure. The author surprises the readers by drafting women characters with self-determined characteristics and stooping to bear …
