Traversing through transmedia
This article seeks to investigate how Ram Devineni and his team’s productions – Priya’s Shakti (2014), Priya’s Mirror (2016), and Priya and the Lost Girls (2019) – break the coveted layers of frames and panels of comics and go beyond them to sensitise the readers on the nuances of gender-based violence in India with the incorporation of augmented reality. Within the fields of comics studies and gender studies, the article also explores how augmen…
Fractured identities and wounded memories in Indian comics on partition
Within the liaison of decoloniality studies and comics studies, this paper investigates how the decolonial visual style in the comics anthology This Side That Side (Ghosh 2013) has been used to locate the traumatised past and violation of human rights due to the ‘b/ordering’ practices of partition of India . ‘The Taboo’ by Malini Gupta and Dyuti Mittal, ‘An Afterlife’ by Sanjoy Chakraborty, and ‘Making Faces’ by Orijit Sen cultivate the stories o…

Shifting narratives
During the 1990s, India underwent significant changes with the implementation of liberalisation, privatisation, and globalisation policies, following the Balance of Payment crisis in 1991. This shift coincided with the ratification of the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights treaty in the Indian Parliament alongside intensive global and Indian campaigns advocating for women's rights and against violence. These shifts deeply influenced both …
Silence as a Sensory Agency
Purpose of the Study: This research paper aims to explore Sundar Sarukkai’s novel Following a Prayer (2023) as a counter narrative to the conventional understanding of voice, agency, and silence. It examines how silence functions as a sensory and agentic force, shaping the experiences of Kalpna, the twelve-year-old protagonist of the novel. The research demonstrates how silence, traditionally perceived as passive, is actively experienced by indiv…

Navigating Children's Literature through Controversy
Too old for photosharing
Our standards of beauty have become sufficiently diverse. However, the representation of older women continues to be marginalized in mainstream media platforms, with the dominant ageist message revolving around the notion of ‘failure.’ For a woman, the ‘horrors’ of aging are felt more conspicuously, which renders her a devalued commodity. Within Indian society, aging is further contested by varied socio-cultural factors that prescribe an older wo…

Cartographies of sexual violence from Delhi to Hathras
The gang-rape case of Delhi in December 2012, usually referred to as Nirbhaya to the very recent Hathras case of September 2020, led to mass protests and demonstrations. However, reading it through the feminist intersectional lens clearly indicates the difference in public response, political stance, and legal progression. There was a protracted struggle, indeed, but sexual violence in Delhi subsequently led to the change in legal reforms, aligni…

Locating epistemic (dis)privilege of female fans in select Indian narratives
As a relatively new category in academia, discourses on Indian Fan culture, both digital and non-digital, are filled with apprehensive perforations. Rapid globalization and the digitization of media have enabled western fan practices as well as a scholarship to permeate into Indian culture but with a twist of patriarchy fused into it. Despite the involvement of female fans in the first wave of western fan practices, feminist cultural studies rare…

Reconceptualising the (in) visible aging self of women in select Bengali films
For several decades now, the incidental category of ‘woman’ has been systematically analysed through a pluralistic lens where race, class, and sexuality have cohesively positioned women as discursive subjects. Yet, age persists to be one such integral variable, which women across all cultures strive to cope with as it emerges as a potent threat to the Other’s subjective identity, her embodied experience and feminine desirability. In the Indian co…
Cartographies of struggle
Ethnic conflict influences the lives of people beyond geopolitical boundaries. In the last two decades, literature from Bangladesh and India has produced narratives of the women who experienced the 1971 war of Bangladesh. Few works have portrayed the stories of Bengali women who migrated to Pakistan after partition to escape their economic struggles and social stigmas. Kamila Shamsie, in her novel Kartography, portrays the lives of people in Kara…

We’re just business. we’re not people’
India is rapidly establishing itself as the world’s baby factory, with couples from both wealthy and impoverished countries flocking there to make specific reproductive decisions through accessible surrogates.

Experiencing the Riverscape
Contemporary times have triggered for an interdisciplinary cusp between disciplines that were conventionally read in a hinged academic encore. The Gangetic ‘Triveni-Sangam’ near Allahabad city where three holy rivers Ganga, Yamuna and Saraswati converge, is believed to be the holiest riverscape as one drop of amrit (nectar) during ocean churning by Gods and demons fell into its water and therefore, bathing and dipping in this sangam or confluence…

Understanding the Gender Biases in Modern and Pre-modern Times through Mricchakatika and Utsav

Place-Identity, People, and Existence

Interrogating Strategies of Justice and Racial Politics

Poetics and Politics of Literary Cartography

Mapping of spatio-religious experiences in Gour’s fiction connotes that literary cartography is an emerging alternative field that can generate topographical knowledge visualizing int…

Furthermore, it also engages in a highly stimulating discussion on the postcolonial possibilities of literary …
Topoanalysis and the City Space in the Literary Writings of Amitava Kumar
In the postmodernist transnational moment, the “city” is a “distinctive location of diasporic dwelling, belonging and attachment” and that the city as home is rooted in “city-specific memories” (Blunt and Bonnerjee 237). Emotions and feelings are not static in nature; the very place where one is born becomes a memory house once the individual moves out. Thus, with dispersion, the spaces of “home” transcend to other physical aspects related to it,…
Art and feminine iconography
Indian art engages with the cartographic representation of the motherland and utilizes feminine iconography as an integral tool for interpreting socio-cultural changes at micro/macro level of the nation. Bharat Mata's anthropomorphic image as a 'living mother' can be traced as the idealized, asexual, pure figure of the past which attempts in recognizing the secular-national terrain where she can claim her own 'geo-body'. With nudity emerging as a…
