Book Description
I got the manuscript of Prayog - The Experiment (1976) from the facebook group for Nepali short-short stories called Laghukatha Kuno - The Very Short Stories Corner. Mr Narayan Tiwari, one of hte writers of the collection provided the manuscript. As I kept on reading the stories, they attracted me for their brevity and the message. The stories also remind us of the lives of people around the seventies in the country. The writers collected in this collection are mostly renowned literary figures in Nepal right now, however we can see their skill in weaving ordinary events into successful stories through this book. I hope this collection will of course quench your thirst of your interest for flash fictions. Don't take my words here for granted. Just see for yourself how they entertain and delight you.

Nayi Kavita
Author: Ludmila L. Rosenstein
Publisher: Anthem Press
ISBN: 1843311240
Category : Hindi poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
In 1943 a slim volume of poetry, Tar Saptak, burst onto the Hindi literary scene. It gave voice to seven young poets who were determined to experiment both with the content and form of poetry. Tar Saptak heralded the beginning of Prayogvad (Experimentalism), which in turn became Nayi Kavita (New Poetry). Taken from Nayi Kavita, this parallel text anthology interprets it not as a narrow literary movement but as a modernist tendency still flourishing in Hindi poetry. The collection includes seven poets who first published in one of the Saptaks: Agyeya Muktibodh, Shamsher, Raghuvir Sahay, Sarveshwar Dayal Saxena, Kunwar Narain and Kedarnath Singh. This volume also significantly revises the literary map of modern Hindi poetry, demonstrating that, contrary to established opinion, the 1960s and 1970s produced gifted women poets such as Shakunt Mathur, Amrita Bharati and Jyotsna Milan, all of whose work is represented here.

The Handbook of Global Interventions in Communication Theory
Author: Yoshitaka Miike
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000536254
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 708
Book Description
Moving beyond the U.S.-Eurocentric paradigm of communication theory, this handbook broadens the intellectual horizons of the discipline by highlighting underrepresented, especially non-Western, theorists and theories, and identifies key issues and challenges for future scholarship. Showcasing diverse perspectives, the handbook facilitates active engagement in different cultural traditions and theoretical orientations that are global in scope but local in effect. It begins by exploring past efforts to diversify the field, continuing on to examine theoretical concepts, models, and principles rooted in local cumulative wisdom. It does not limit itself to the mass-interpersonal communication divide, but rather seeks to frame theory as global and inclusive in scope. The book is intended for communication researchers and advanced students, with relevance to scholars with an interest in theory within information science, library science, social and cross-cultural psychology, multicultural education, social justice and social ethics, international relations, development studies, and political science.

The Diary of Manu Gandhi
Author:
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199098077
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
Manu Gandhi, M.K. Gandhi’s grand-niece, joined him in 1943 at the age of fifteen. An aide to Gandhi’s ailing wife Kasturba in the Aga Khan Palace prison in Pune, Manu remained with him until his assassination. She was a partner in his final yajna, an experiment in Brahmacharya, and his invocation of Rama at the moment of his death. Spanning two volumes, The Diary of Manu Gandhi is a record of her life and times with M.K. Gandhi between 1943 and 1948. Authenticated by Gandhi himself, the meticulous and intimate entries in the diary throw light on Gandhi’s life as a prisoner and his endeavour to establish the possibility of collective non-violence. They also offer a glimpse into his ideological conflicts, his efforts to find his voice, and his lonely pilgrimage to Noakhali during the riots of 1946. The first volume (1943–44) chronicles the spiritual and educational pursuits of an adolescent woman who takes up writing as a mode of self-examination. The author shares a moving portrait of Kasturba Gandhi’s illness and death and also unravels the deep emotional bond she develops with Gandhi, whom she calls her ‘mother’.
