| lalmohan ganguly: Postcolonial Postmortems , 2006-01-01 Recent crime fiction increasingly transcends national boundaries, with investigators operating across countries and continents. Frequently, the detective is a migrant or comes from a transcultural background. To solve the crime, the investigator is called upon to decipher the meaning(s) hidden in clues and testimonies that require transcultural forms of understanding. For the reader, the investigation discloses new interpretive methods and processes of social investigation, often challenging facile interpretations of the postcolonial world order. Under the rubric 'postcolonial postmortems', this collection of essays seeks to explore the tropes, issues and themes that characterise this emergent form of crime fiction. But what does the 'postcolonial' bring to the genre apart from the well-known, and valid, discourses of resistance, subversion and ethnicity? And why 'postmortems'? A dissection and medical examination of a body to determine the cause of death, the 'postmortem' of the postcolonial not only alludes to the investigation of the victim's remains, but also to the body of the individual text and its contexts. This collection interrogates literary concepts of postcoloniality and crime from transcultural perspectives in the attempt to offer new critical impulses to the study of crime fiction and postcolonial literatures. International scholars offer insights into the 'postcolonial postmortems' of a wide range of texts by authors from Africa, South Asia, the Asian and African Diaspora, and Australia, including Robert G. Barrett, Unity Dow, Wessel Ebersohn, Romesh Gunesekera, Kazuo Ishiguro, Sujata Massey, Alexander McCall Smith and Michael Ondaatje. |

| lalmohan ganguly: In Praise of Laziness and Other Essays Indrjait Hazra, 2023-12-19 A cross between a collection of philosophical investigations and idle banter, In Praise of Laziness and Other Essays, is a celebration of what Milan Kundera defined as ‘Mystification: the active form of refusing to take the world seriously’. From an Erasmian encomium to laziness, a literary forensic report on the adult years of Sukumar Ray’s Pagla Dashu and Mark Twain’s Huckleberry Finn, the joys of staying indoors, to the exquisite pleasures of an electric blanket—and with a science fiction story on colonisation bunged in—this book is the equivalent of a meandering river in which the reader dips his or her toes in, not knowing whether a dolphin will come by or a piranha take a snap. This is a book that’s equal parts serious as well as frivolous, except you never quite know which parts are which. |
| lalmohan ganguly: The Cultural Politics of Food, Taste, and Identity Steffan Igor Ayora-Diaz, 2021-04-08 The Cultural Politics of Food, Taste, and Identity examines the social, cultural, and political processes that shape the experience of taste. The book positions flavor as involving all the senses, and describes the multiple ways in which taste becomes tied to local, translocal, glocal, and cosmopolitan politics of identity. Global case studies are included from Japan, China, India, Belize, Chile, Guatemala, the United States, France, Italy, Poland and Spain. Chapters examine local responses to industrialized food and the heritage industry, and look at how professional culinary practice has become foundational for local identities. The book also discusses the unfolding construction of “local taste” in the context of sociocultural developments, and addresses how cultural political divides are created between meat consumption and vegetarianism, innovation and tradition, heritage and social class, popular food and authenticity, and street and restaurant food. In addition, contributors discuss how different food products-such as kimchi, quinoa, and Soylent-have entered the international market of industrial and heritage foods, connecting different places and shaping taste and political identities. |

Providing analyses of selected films, including those that comprise The Apu Trilogy, Chess Players, and Jalsaghhar, among others, Cooper outlines Western influences on Ray's work, such as the plight of women functioning within a patriarchal society, Ray's political vision of the 'doubly colonised', and his attack and critique of the Bengali/Indian middle class of today.

| lalmohan ganguly: Satyajit Ray: An Intimate Master Santi Das, 1998-10-16 Satyajit Ray: An Intimate Master is an invaluable sourcework for studies in the work of Satyajit Ray and offers fascinating reading at the same time. Specially commissioned articles by experts and some of Ray's closest associates, relations and friends provide insights into the entire range of the creativity of Satyajit Ray, one of the world's greatest filmmakers—as artist and designer, writer, and filmmaker—and the environment that nurtured him. The contributions unravel features never before touched—upon all those subterranean elements that went into the making of his films and his artistic character. They should serve to open up new approaches to and possibilities for fresh readings of Ray's works in fiction, design and filmmaking alike. The 400-odd illustrations—several of them appearing in print for the first time—bring together a wide range of film stills, working stills, book illustrations, early drawings and sketches, layouts for advertisement insertions, film posters, brochures, portraits, caricatures, jacket designs, giving viewers a rare chance of studying the entirety of Ray's visual imagination and artistic craftsmanship. The memoiral, and analytical and critical pieces are supplemented by a comprehensive and thoroughly authenticated documentation, covering Ray's biography, a chronology of his films, filmography, synopses and cast/credits, awards and honours, his contributions to works by others, discography, bibliography, citations received on several occasions, the text of his earliest literary work, reproductions of his earliest artistic works, and portfolios on the making of Pather Panchali, his masterwork, and his involvement with Sandesh, the popular children's periodical launched by his grandfather that Ray revived in 1961, from a passionate concern for the enlightenment of children, a project that grew to be a passion of his in his last years. A selection of reviews of Ray’s films, national and international, arranged chronologically and filmwise offer a record of the world’s perception of and response to his films over four decades, in historical perspective. The volume as a whole, the product of several years’ research, has drawn on the rich collection of relevant documentary and archival material and memorabilia lying with the Ray family; and with the thoroughness that has gone into its documentation, it will be, for several years to come, the most authoritative and exhaustive and reliable work on Satyajit Ray. |

| lalmohan ganguly: Satyajit Ray : The Man Who Knew Too Much Barun Chanda, 2022-05-15 Satyajit Ray’s Seemabaddha (1971), a stinging indictment of the corporate rat race, remains one of the iconic film-maker’s most feted works. It starred debutant Barun Chanda, who won a special prize for his performance. Now, fifty years later, Barun Chanda documents his experience of working in the film and being directed by Satyajit Ray, someone he describes as ‘the man who knew too much’. But Satyajit Ray: The Man Who Knew Too Much is more than just an account of the making of a film.The author also presents a detailed and informative study of the various avatars of Ray as a film-maker: his sense of script and ear for dialogue, his instinctive grasp of the nuances of music, his penchant for casting non-actors and ability to get the perfect face for a role, his genius in designing a film’s title sequence. Insightful and informed by a rare understanding of the master’s works, this is an invaluable addition to the corpus of work on Satyajit Ray. |

| lalmohan ganguly: Indian Popular Fiction Prem Kumari Srivastava, Mona Sinha, 2021-11-24 The scholarly essays in this book open up experimental and novel spaces and genres beyond the traditional and the literary world of Indian Popular Fiction as it existed towards the end of the last millennium. They respond to the possibilities opened up by the technology-driven and internet-savvy reading and writing world of today. Contemporaneous and bold, most of the essays resonate with the racy and fast-paced milieu and social media space inhabited by today's youth. Combative in its drift, this book makes possible an attempt to disband hierarchies and dismantle categories that have engulfed the expansive landscape of Indian Popular Fiction for too long. It facilitates discussion on graphic novels, microfiction, popular-entertainment and political satire on television and celluloid, social media-driven romances existing in the domain of the 'real' rather than that of 'fantasy' and mythological readings against the backdrop of gender and politics. Aimed at facilitating further research by scholars and enthusiasts of Indian Popular Fiction, this book is also an ode to the current trends generated by social and internet media cosmos. This book is co-published with Aakar Books, New Delhi. Taylor & Francis does not sell or distribute the print versions of this book in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. |

| lalmohan ganguly: Political Theory and South Asian Counter-Narratives Maidul Islam, 2021-09-28 This book evaluates the promise of human progress and secularism in grand political narratives of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, comparing counter-narratives of South Asia within the context of a fast-changing twenty-first century. The book embraces a broad range of sources and theoretical approaches that include political philosophy, film, and ideological discourse analysis. In the twenty-first century, global inequality and significant growth of religious and majoritarian nationalisms have been appended with a protracted economic slowdown and recession in many countries. Examining what went wrong in terms of secularism and distributive justice in India, this book critiques the Euro-American visions of democracy, global capitalism, and their so-called universality. As an alternative, it proposes a progressive politics of radical democracy for the Indian people. Reconsidering alternatives to capitalism, western secularism and the radical possibilities of Islamism, Political Theory and South Asian Counter-Narratives will appeal to students and scholars of political theory, international relations, global history, and South Asian politics. |

| lalmohan ganguly: Popular Cinema in Bengal Madhuja Mukherjee, Kaustav Bakshi, 2020-06-09 Popular Cinema in Bengal marks a decisive turn in studies of Bengali language cinema by shifting the focus from auteur and text-based studies to exhaustive readings of the film industry. The book covers a wide range of themes and issues, including: generic tropes (like comedy and action); iconic figurations (of the detective and the city); (female) stars such as Kanan Bala, Sadhana Bose and Aparna Sen; intensities of public debates (subjects of high and low cultures, taste, viewership, gender and sexuality); print cultures (including posters, magazines and song-booklets); cinematic spaces; and trans-media and trans-cultural traffic. By locating cinema within the crosscurrents of geo-political transformations, the book highlights the new and persuasive research that has materialised over the last decade. The authors raise pertinent questions regarding 'regional' cinema as a category, in relation to 'national' cinema models, and trace the non-linear journey of the popular via multiple (media) trajectories. They address subjects of physicality, sexuality and its representations, industrial change, spaces of consumption, and cinema’s meandering directions through global circuits and low-end networks. Highlighting the ever-changing contours of cinema in Bengal in all its popular forms and proposing a new historiography, Popular Cinema in Bengal will be of great interest to scholars of film studies and South-Asian popular culture. The chapters were originally published in the journal South Asian History and Culture. |

| lalmohan ganguly: Indian Popular Fiction Gitanjali Chawla, Sangeeta Mittal, 2021-10-14 This anthology explores and validate the nuances of Indian popular fiction which has hitherto been hounded by its ubiquitous 'commerical' success. It uncoverspopular in its socio-political and cultural contexts. Furthermore, it investigates the vitality embedded in theory and praxis of popular forms and their insurrections in mutants and new age oeuvres and looks to examine the symbiotic bonds between the reader and the author, as the latter articulates and perpetuates the needs of the former whose demands need continual fulfilment. This constant metamorphosis of the popular fueled by neoliberalism and postmodernity along with the shifts in the publishing industry to more democratic 'reader' driven genres is taken up here along with the millenial's fetish for romance, humanized mythical retellings and the evergreen whodunnits. As its natural soulmates, the anthology delves into the interstices of Indian Popular with desi (local) traditions, folk lore, community consciousness and nation building. Please note: This title is co-published with Aakar Books, New Delhi. Taylor & Francis does not sell or distribute the Hardback in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. |

| lalmohan ganguly: Feluda mène l'enquête Ray Satyajit, 2019-01-08 Trois enquêtes du célèbre détective indien Feluda. Satyajit Ray (1921-1992), l’immense cinéaste indien, qui débuta sa carrière comme assistant de Jean Renoir et dont Gérard Depardieu a produit Le Visiteur, était aussi écrivain. De 1965 jusqu’à sa mort, le réalisateur aux 37 films publia chaque année une enquête de Feluda. Trente-cinq récits en tout, avec toujours les trois même personnages : Feluda, le placide détective qui tient du Sherlock Holmes ou du Jeeves indien, son neveu Topshé, quatorze ans, le narrateur, et Jotayu, l’écrivain à succès. À travers cette triple focale, l’enquête se déroule comme un film. Chaque énigme est prétexte à voyager, à découvrir une nouvelle partie de ce continent-monde et à faire rêver son milliard de lecteurs. D’abord conçus pour les enfants, ces courts récits ont immédiatement eu un tel succès que Satyajit Ray les a vite écrits pour la famille tout entière. Et, à chaque printemps, la publication du nouveau Feluda était l’événement éditorial de l’année. Dans ce premier volume, nous avons sélectionné trois enquêtes, qui balaient toute l’Inde du Nord. Philippe Benoît, professeur à Langues O’ et traducteur notamment de Taslima Nasreen, a traduit ces trois récits directement du bengali. Découvrez, dans ce ce premier volume, trois enquêtes du détective Feluda accompagné de son neveu Topshé, et narrées par l'écrivain Jotayu. EXTRAIT Feluda a refermé bruyamment le livre qu’il tenait entre les mains. il a claqué des doigts à deux reprises, poussé un énorme bâillement, et s’est écrié : — C’est de la géométrie! J’ai demandé, incrédule : — tu lisais un livre de géométrie depuis tout ce temps? le livre en question était recouvert d’une protection de papier journal, je ne pouvais pas voir le titre. tout ce que je savais, c’est que Feluda l’avait emprunté à l’oncle sidhou. l’oncle sidhou est un acheteur compulsif de livres, très maniaque pour tout ce qui tient à leur conservation. il ne les prête jamais, mais il a confiance en Feluda. et Feluda, lorsqu’il emprunte un livre à l’oncle sidhou, se dépêche de le couvrir, à peine rentré à la maison. Feluda a allumé une cigarette, lâché deux ronds de fumée et continué : — la géométrie n’a pas besoin de livres. tous les livres parlent de géométrie car toute la vie n’est que géométrie. tu l’as sûrement remarqué: lorsque ces ronds de fumée sont sortis de ma bouche, c’étaient des cercles parfaits. Réfléchis un peu à l’importance de cette figure géométrique dans l’univers! regarde ton propre corps. tes pupilles sont deux cercles qui te permettent de voir la lune, les étoiles, le soleil dans le ciel. quand tu les observes, tu as l’impression de voir des cercles (en vérité ce sont des sphères, chacun est une sorte de bulle solide). À PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR Satyajit Ray (1921-1992), l’immense cinéaste indien, qui débuta sa carrière comme assistant de Jean Renoir et dont Gérard Depardieu a produit Le Visiteur, était aussi écrivain. |
