Rejecting Older Trajectory of Subaltern Syndrome
In India, elites portray subalterns without any regard for caste in both literature and film. Instead of focusing on caste, they prefer poverty as the main theme, and this is how Dalits are stereotypically depicted by writers and directors. This article attempts to explain the differences between Dalit writers and directors speaking on the same subject as elite writers and directors in the past. Additionally, a comparison is made between the old …
Is Non-Popularity of Dalit Epics due to Lack of Translation? Gorakh Prasad Mastana
Indian literature is short of translators, and this shortage is felt in regional works. The impact of translations is evident: Without A. K. Ramanujan, there would be no Sangam literature today. No doubt, there remains a scarcity, and as a result, folk poets, writers and dramatists stay at the margins.

Both groups …

Indian Women in World War II
The main focus of this article is on the war-stricken ecology of World War II and the notable role played by Indian women as Air Raid Precaution Wardens. They gave their unmatched services in the air raid–prone areas and earned a name. However, until the close of the war, they were reduced to not more than ‘comfort women’ for British officers and soldiers. Simultaneously, the article explains how the women’s influential roles are sidelined by giv…
