Indian English Literature : Since 1950 (In 2 Vols.)

The first volume of the book is a collection of well-researched articles discussing, thoroughly, the most recent trends of Indian Literature in English exhibits—nativism, diaspora, modernism, colonialism, postcolonialism, postmodernism, etc. The contribution from the well known scholars in the fields—Professors O.P. Mathur, G.S. Balarama Gupta, R.S. Sharma, among other noted scholars, immensely inhance the value and worth of the book for scholars engaged in this field of research. The inclusion of two interviews and an article on autobiography aim to fill gaps Indian Writing in English has often witnessed. While volume second examines landmark publications during the twentieth century, includes essays by senior and upcoming scholars. Special light is thrown on history and narrative as two modes of human existence which evolve into structure of literature when a literary tradition comes of age. Decoding of the processes as symbolisation is no less important. The book certainly provides new perspectives to literary works produced by Indian writers in English.
