O tym produkcie

Product Information

William Riley Parker Prize for an outstanding article published in PMLA "Some Time between Revisionist and Revolutionary: Unreading History in Dalit Literature" May 2011 issue of PMLA Untouchable Fictions considers the crisis of literary realism--progressive, rural, regionalist, experimental--in order to derive a literary genealogy for the recent explosion of Dalit ("untouchable caste") fiction. Drawing on a wide array of writings from Premchand and Renu in Hindi to Mulk Raj Anand and V. S. Naipaul in English, Gajarawala illuminates the dark side of realist complicity: a hidden aesthetics and politics of caste. How does caste color the novel? What are its formal tendencies? What generic constraints does it produce? Untouchable Fictions juxtaposes the Dalit text and its radical critique with a history of progressive literary movements in South Asia. Gajarawala reads Dalit writing dialectically, doing justice to its unique and groundbreaking literary interventions while also demanding that it be read as an integral moment in the literary genealogy of the 20th and 21st centuries. This book, grounded in the fields of postcolonial theory, South Asian literatures, and cultural studies, makes a crucial intervention into studies of literary realism and will be important for all readers interested in the problematic relations between aesthetics and politics and between social movements and cultural production.

Reviews
"Some Time between Revisionist and Revolutionary: Unreading History in Dalit Literature" --May 2011 issue of PMLA, Untouchable Fictions goes beyond a mere recognition of the centrality of realism in the postcolonial imagination. Focusing on Dalit writing in India, Gajarawala shows how realism, like other terms, came up against the force of locality and the limits presented by a literature of protest. Gajarawala's work thus recuperates a Dalit literature that was driven by the need to go beyond a politics of identity to provide a critique of the formal logic of realism as it confronted the crisis of caste. Untouchable Fictions is outstanding in its recognition of the interplay of realism (as a formal structure), the literary canon (as the condition of possibility of nationalism), and the crisis of caste as the social force that could redirect or question all the narrative accounts on which a literary history of India was premised. The book's brilliant engagement with both the cultural politics of Dalit writing and the aesthetic ideology of Dalit literature makes it a model of the work that awaits to be done in our field. -----Simon Gikandi, Princeton University, "Gajarawala is among the most intellectually ambitious of the contemporary Anglophone literary critics of Dalit writing, and she nicely manages to retain a stereoscopic focus on Dalit literary production and Dalit aesthetic theory."--Parama Roy, University of California, Davis "Dalit writing has posed extremely serious and challenging questions to literary studies in India. This book presents a sustained, insightful, and original engagement with these questions as it maps the project of modern Dalit (primarily Hindi) fiction."--Simona Sawhney, University of Minnesota "Untouchable Fictions is outstanding in its recognition of the interplay of realism (as a formal structure), the literary canon (as the condition of possibility of nationalism), and the crisis of caste as the social force that could redirect or question all the narrative accounts on which a literary history of India was premised.
