Abstract:
Fiction is not created just to entertain. It serves as a historical treasure trove of social change, the context, and condition of a changing society by uncovering social problems and suggesting solutions. Fiction creators act as the lifeblood of this forum. Such a creator is Rajam Krishnan. With the aim of social development, he has created many new personalities in his fiction from various angles. He has given life and meaning to the nucleus of innovation with the aim of improving the individual's character and interests and has sown the seeds of social excellence in the form of the contribu

Abstract:
In terms of Michel Foucault utopias afford consolation : “Although they have no real locality there is nevertheless a fantastic, untroubled region in which they are able to unfold ; they open up cities with waste avenues, superbly planted gardens, countries where life is easy, even though the road to them is chimerical.” Utopias testify to our inability to dream our way out of the myths and the historical situation we live. As a matter of fact, our attitude towards history, says Dmitry Likhachev, is directed by notions “ encapsulated’’ in myths. During the 20th century, Russian utopian narrati

His nonfiction—In an Antique Land(1992),Dancing in Cambodia and at Large in Burma(1998), andCountdown(1999)—rests on a PhD in social anthropology from Oxford.

This research article titled “The Emergence of the Autonomous Individual “explores the early fiction of Ayn Rand and Chinua Achebe and proceeds with the assumption that the autonomous individual is seen emerging in Ayn Rand"s We the Living (1936) and Anthem (1938) and in Chinua Achebe"s Things Fall Apart (1958) and Arrow of God (1964) respectively. In the fiction of Ayn Rand, the researcher explores the nature of the individual from the socio-political context. Rand"s Anthem follows We the Living chronologically, and is set in Communist Russia and trigger off the rise of the indivi

Abstract:
In a letter to Erasmus dated 3 September 1516, Thomas More wrote: ‘I am sending you my “Nowhere”, which is nowhere well written’. More's use of the Latin word ‘nusquam’ in this sentence (not ‘Utopia’, as one might have expected) made explicit what would have been apparent to any reader of the book with a knowledge of Greek: that the island of Utopia which the character Raphael Hythloday describes is ‘nowhere’. The name ‘Utopia’, those readers would have known, was a compound of the Greek adverb ‘ou’, meaning ‘not’, with the noun ‘topos’, or ‘place’. The non-existence of Utopia operates through

Abstract:
This article analyzes Charles de Lint’s 1989 novel Svaha as an example of how distinct national identities can endure in the globalized future espoused by most cyberpunk texts. Instead of imagining a generic urban sprawl in which it is increasingly difficult to maintain a stable social or communal identity, Svaha addresses issues of Canadian identity based on the division of living spaces by various social and cultural boundaries. The article begins by assessing Istvan Csicsery-Ronay’s argument that science fiction shows little interest in the future of nations, a notion I counter by means of

Abstract:
Danish-Norwegian author Aksel Sandemose called these commandments “the Jante’ Law,” so-named for his protagonist's fictional Danish home-town in the semi-autobiographical novel A Fugitive Crosses His Tracks (orig. pub. 1933; English trans., 1936:77-78). Over the years this ironic credo of elder-dominated communal living has expanded and acquired a special resonance with respect to Swedish cultural self-image. Today in Sweden, the Jante Law occupies a place in the popular imagination as a descriptor of a specifically Scandinavian attitude, a subtly enforced culture of moderation and humility.

After the end of World War II, the British colonial grip loosened, and many independent countries emerged.

Abstract:
This chapter focuses on a village in peri-urban Guangzhou that stubbornly refused to be relocated to state commodity housing. It examines how the regulatory equation of “urban” with “state ownership” in China entrenches a social fiction that occupants of collective land suffer from an innate rurality ill-suited to the conditions of modern living. The chapter's account shows how villagers, without directly challenging state policy, mobilize a quality-driven language emphasizing “the sanctuary of the collective” (jitidebihu) as a communal way of being that fosters a vitality (renqi) that village

This research explores the farming landscape and village life in Kampos, a village on the Greek island of Tinos. Tinos is an Aegean island with a long history of agriculture. In Kampos, one of the oldest farming villages of Tinos, boundaries created by low stone walls and alleyways primarily define the farming landscape that permeates village life and its structure. The landscape appears semi-artificial, given the construction of countless rows of cultivation ridges and terraces. Boundaries on the island appear through texts, space, movement and habit, thus creating. a series of liminal spaces
