HOW CASTE ‘SPEAKS’: A STUDY OF MULKRAJ ANAND’S ‘UNTOUCHABLE’

SHARDOOL THAKUR

ABSTRACT

This paper is an attempt to explore the relatively unexplored area of the precise nature of the caste dynamics in Mulkraj Anand’s canonical novel Untouchable. The stark opening sets the tone for the novel. While as per the Oxford Dictionary, the term outcaste (in Hindu society) refers to a person who has no caste or a person who is expelled from their caste, Anand uses this term in its additional connotative sense of ‘low castes’ or ‘shudras’ in opposition to the three dominant classes- ‘Brahmin’, ‘Kshatriya’ and ‘Vaishya’ in the Chaturvarna system. These include ‘the scavengers, the leather-workers, the washermen, the barbers, the water-carriers, the grass-cutters and other outcastes from Hindu society’.

Key Words: Untauchable, Shudras, uncongenial, Shetkaryacha Asud

ENHANCING WORD KNOWLEDGE TO PROMOTE INCREMENTAL GROWTH OF VOCABULARY

K. MANJULA

ABSTRACT

The paper entitled, “Enhancing Word Knowledge to Promote Incremental Growth of vocabulary” is an attempt to study some of the aspects associated with the word knowledge. The research of Nation suggests that word knowledge increases world knowledge and world knowledge increases word knowledge and so on. To increase their repertoire of vocabulary, a mere memorizing of list of wordsdoes not always help learners reach the target. Hence, imparting vocabulary should enable the learners in establishing links between them by strong associations. This paper presents the possibility of adapting the theoretical underpinnings of aspects of word knowledge suggested in the research of second language vocabulary acquisition. Further, imparting vocabulary should seriously consider the associated aspects of words which contribute to incremental growth of vocabulary. If vocabulary instruction from the high school level is thorough and strategic, it can help in orienting the learners towards serious goals of vocabulary acquisition.

M. D. RAFI & DR. M. VENKATESWARA RAO

ABSTRACT

Most of Bhabani Bhattacharya's novels deal with the contemporary human problems with a human heart. His major concern in his works is with the forces which are conductive to life. Chandrasekharan (1974:2) says that Bhabani “explores the various levels and dimensions of human growth and individual freedom and projects in his works the confrontation between the humanistic and anti-humanistic values.” Besides it, Bhabani's novels focused on the problems of contemporary issues such as famines. The historical incidents mainly the Quit India Movement and the Bengal famine of 1942-43 had made deep impression on the mind of Bhabani Bhattacharya. This is the enormous motivation to his first novel, So Many Hungers!, which was published in 1947. As to how he became a novelist, Bhattacharya (1972:71) recalls: “The great famine swept down upon Bengal, The emotional stirrings I felt (more than two million men, women and children died of slow starvation amid a man-made scarcity) where a sheer compulsion to creativity. The result was the novel So Many Hungers!” To his great surprise, the novel got quick success and was translated into many languages. Regarding the novel, Mahendra N. Pandia (1989:6) writes, “This runaway success of his first novel was due to the very human approach to a national tragedy where what man had made of man was seen in its bare nakedness!”

GUJARAT STATE PRIMARY TEACHERS PREPARATION FOR SKILLS TEACHING AND THEIR TEACHING WORK EFFECT’S AND COUNSELLING

DR. CHHAYA R. SUCHAK

ABSTRACT

Access to video equipment for students practice is also desirable, as it is an excellent teaching method. It provides an opportunity for the students to see themselves as others see them and to be able to study how non-verbal communication matches, or conflicts with, verbal communication and is the ideal tool for interpersonal process recall. However, it is expensive on materials, rooms and time, so you may have to compromise. Some courses use video workshops at weekends when some intensive training can be done. Audio equipment can be difficult to use if you have limited room space, but students need to have access to a tape recorder and get skilled at using it to enable them to record their work with clients.
