Theatres of Independence
Author: Aparna Bhargava Dharwadker
Publisher: University of Iowa Press
ISBN: 158729642X
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 505
Book Description
Theatres of Independence is the first comprehensive study of drama, theatre, and urban performance in post-independence India. Combining theatre history with theoretical analysis and literary interpretation, Aparna Dharwadker examines the unprecedented conditions for writing and performance that the experience of new nationhood created in a dozen major Indian languages and offers detailed discussions of the major plays, playwrights, directors, dramatic genres, and theories of drama that have made the contemporary Indian stage a vital part of postcolonial and world theatre.The first part of Dharwadker's study deals with the new dramatic canon that emerged after 1950 and the variety of ways in which plays are written, produced, translated, circulated, and received in a multi-lingual national culture. The second part traces the formation of significant postcolonial dramatic genres from their origins in myth, history, folk narrative, sociopolitical experience, and the intertextual connections between Indian, European, British, and American drama. The book's ten appendixes collect extensive documentation of the work of leading playwrights and directors, as well as a record of the contemporary multilingual performance histories of major Indian, Western, and non-Western plays from all periods and genres. Treating drama and theatre as strategically interrelated activities, the study makes post-independence Indian theatre visible as a multifaceted critical subject to scholars of modern drama, comparative theatre, theatre history, and the new national and postcolonial literatures.

Book Description
‘आधे-अधूरे’ आज के जीवन के एक गहन अनुभव–खंड को मूर्त करता है। इसके लिए हिन्दी के जीवन्त मुहावरे को पकड़ने की सार्थक, प्रभावशाली कोशिश की गई है। ...इस नाटक की एक अत्यंत महत्त्वपूर्ण विशेषता इसकी भाषा है। इसमें वह सामर्थ्य है जो समकालीन जीवन के तनाव को पकड़ सके। शब्दों का चयन, उनका क्रम, उनका संयोजन—सबकुछ ऐसा है जो बहुत सम्पूर्णता से अभिप्रेत को अभिव्यक्त करता है। लिखित शब्द की यही शक्ति और उच्चारित ध्वनि–समूह का यही बल है, जिसके कारण यह नाट्य–रचना बन्द और खुले, दोनों प्रकार के मंचों पर अपना सम्मोहन बनाए रख सकी। ...यह नाट्यलेख, एक स्तर पर स्त्री–पुरुष के बीच के लगाव और तनाव का दस्तावेज़ है...दूसरे स्तर पर पारिवारिक विघटन की गाथा है। एक अन्य स्तर पर यह नाट्य–रचना मानवीय संतोष के अधूरेपन का रेखांकन है। जो लोग ज़िन्दगी से बहुत कुछ चाहते हैं, उनकी तृप्ति अधूरी ही रहती है। एक ही अभिनेता द्वारा पाँच पृथक् भूमिकाएँ निभाए जाने की दिलचस्प रंगयुक्ति का सहारा इस नाटक की एक और विशेषता है। संक्षेप में कहें तो ‘आधे–अधूरे’ समकालीन ज़िन्दगी का पहला सार्थक हिन्दी नाटक है। इसका गठन सुदृढ़ एवं रंगोपयुक्त है। पूरे नाटक की अवधारणा के पीछे सूक्ष्म रंगचेतना निहित है।

One Day in the Season of Rain
Author: Mohan Rakesh
Publisher: Penguin UK
ISBN: 9352140125
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
In a remote village in the foothills of the Himalayas, a gifted but unknown poet named Kalidas nurtures an unconventional romance with his youthful muse, Mallika. When the royal palace at Ujjayini offers him the position of court poet, Kalidas hesitates, but Mallika persuades him to leave for the distant city so that his talent may find recognition. Convinced that he will send for her, she waits. He returns years later, a broken man trying to reconnect with his past, only to discover that time has passed him by. // A classic of postcolonial theatre, Mohan Rakesh’s Hindi play is both an unforgettable love story and a modernist reimagining of the life of India’s greatest classical poet. It comes alive again in Aparna and Vinay Dharwadker’s new English translation, authorized by the author’s estate. This literary rendering is designed for performance on the contemporary cosmopolitan stage, and it is enriched by extensive commentary on the play’s contexts, legacy, themes and dramaturgy.

The Politics of Modern Indian Language Literature
Author: MK Raghavendra
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040017622
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
Indian literature is produced in a wealth of languages but there is an asymmetry in the exposure the writing gets, which owes partly to the politics of translation into English. This book represents the first comprehensive political scrutiny of the concerns and attitudes of Indian language literature after 1947 to cover such a wide range, including voices from the cultural margins of the nation like Kashmiri and Manipuri, that of women alongside those of minority and marginalised communities. In examining the politics of the writing especially in relation to concerns like nationhood, caste, tradition and modernity, postcoloniality, gender issues and religious conflict, the book goes beyond the declared ideology of each writer to get at covert significations pointing to widely shared but often unacknowledged biases. The book is deeply analytical but lucid and jargon-free and, to those unfamiliar with the writers, it introduces a new keenness into Indian literary criticism to make its objects exciting.
