Select bibliography. Index. "Towards Freedom is a collection of critical essays on the issues raised by Tagore's novel in a contemporary world where differences of religion, region, class, caste, gender etc., constantly demand to be addressed. It focuses upon the crafting of the novel out of complex historical contexts of caste, class and gender politics. By examining the play of ideologies in this novel, the anthology aims to help students recognise the importance of locating imaginative literature within its histories. Given that most of these structured hierarchies of oppression function powerfully in our lives even today. Towards Freedom stresses the continuing relevance of engaging with the issues raised by a novel which looks at the private and the political as intertwined.".

Condition: new. Traduzione di M. Capuani. Roma, 2013; br., pp. 384, cm 14x21. (Scatti). Intorno alla cucina dell'antica casa di Kailash e ai deliziosi profumi speziati dei piatti tradizionali bengalesi, si dipana il racconto di una saga familiare che nasconde un mistero sanguinoso. Tutto inizia nell'estate del 1962, mentre il monsone si abbatte su Calcutta e, fuori dalle mura di Kailash, la grande Storia indiana procede tra guerre e progresso sociale. La giovane moglie del figlio del padrone, Uma, è una ragazza istruita e "moderna" che un giorno decide di assecondare la richiesta delle donne di casa: leggere per loro il Chandimangal, un poema scritto dal bisnonno del marito e pubblicato con successo dall'impresa di famiglia, la Ganges Press. Il libro racconta e celebra il pantheon indù, ma via via che Urna legge il poema, le donne di Kailash si accorgono che questa versione del mito (e in particolare la figura della dea combattente a loro così cara) si discosta alquanto da quella che le loro famiglie tramandano di generazione in generazione. I loro dubbi si fanno sempre più insistenti e spingono Uma - lei che sa leggere e che può uscire da sola e andare in biblioteca ad approfondire l'indagine sulle caratteristiche della dea negli altri Chandimangal esistenti. Eppure le soluzioni ai misteri di interesse pubblico e privato della nuova famiglia di Urna non verranno dai libri, bensì dall'unica persona in grado di rivelare i segreti di Kailash, l'anziana Pishi, che vive da lungo tempo in quella dimora costruita sul sangue di una donna. Come reagirà la moderna Uma?.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In The Song Seekers, the debut novel by Saswati Sengupta, the monsoon rains wash over the city of Kolkata while four women sit and read and talk in the kitchen of Kailash, the old mansion of the Chattopadhyays where Uma comes to live after her marriage in the summer of 1962. It is a place of mystery to Uma. Her husbands silence about his mothers murder and the childhood tragedy that beckons him from the shadowy landing of Kailash, the embroidered handkerchiefs in an old soap box in her father-in-laws room, and the strange presence of the old, green-eyed Pishiall intrigue and mystify her. But it is only as she begins to read aloud the traditional Chandimangalcomposed by her husbands grandfather to celebrate the goddessthat the long-buried stories begin to emerge. In The Song Seekers, Saswati Sengupta recasts the militant goddess Chandi as a wife and interweaves the history of the Portuguese in Bengal, the rise of print, the swadeshi movement, and the turbulence of the 1960s in Bengal. These disparate elements all come together as Uma discovers that the foundation of the mansion is not only very deep, but it also masks the stink of death. The monsoon rains wash over the city of Kolkata while four women sit and read and talk in the kitchen of Kailash, the old mansion of the Chattopadhyays where Uma comes to live after her marriage in the summer of 1962. It is a place of mystery to Uma. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
