Abstract:
In this research paper, I analyze the effects of institutionalised ways of reading ‘gender’ and ‘caste’ in Marathi literature with reference to Baburao Bagul, one of the important Dalit writers, short stories with the help of some notions and arguments from Antonio Gramsci’s Prison Notebooks, Jacques Derrida’s essay “Structure, Sign and Play in the Discourse of Human Sciences”, Aniket Jaaware’s essay “Destitute Literature” and the book Practicing Caste: On Touching and Not Touching. Baburao Bagul’s short stories re-valuated the established institutionalized reading practices of gender and caste in literature set by the Marathi writers and critics, mostly upper-caste, before the 1960s. However, other Dalit writers did not venture to re-valuate the representation of gender and caste in literature. Before the concept of ‘Destitute Literature’ was propounded by Aniket Jaaware, most of the reading/analysis of Marathi Dalit literature followed institutionalized ways of consumption of literature. The dominant practices of reading literature in academia as well as out of it did not spare even the scholars who claimed to be different from the hegemony. The descriptions and analysis of gender and caste were mostly on the grounds of identity politics. For example, all the essays in the Marathi book Samagra Lekhak: Baburao Bagul (Complete Writer: Baburao Bagul) edited by Dr. Krushna Kirwale offer the institutionalized readings of Bagul’s stories, their form, content, and the characters. I attempt to critique such earlier writings and criticism written on Baburao Bagul’s stories and re-read the stories in destitutionalised way.

Abstract:
MODI, synonymous with the Devanagari script, is an ancient script from the 17th century used by the Maratha empire as a symbol of culture and power to propagate Marathi. Due to a decline in its usage, absence of quality script database and an unavailability of good literature, identification and translation of MODI script is demanding. The present work deals with a novel study on the recognition of MODI characters and numerals by using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture. By using a traditional machine learning classifier, classification is performed, and then through a comparative analysis of Random Forest and XGBoost, the study achieves recognition accuracy of 92% for characters and 93.3% for numerals.

Abstract:
Text-independent dialect recognition system is proposed in this paper for Marathi language. India is rich in language varieties. Each language in turn has its unique dialect variations. Maharashtra has Marathi as official language and for Goa it is a co-official language . In literature there are very few studies available for Indian language recognition and then their respective dialect recognition. So research work available for regional languages such as Marathi is extremely limited. As a part of research work, an attempt is made to generate a case study of a low resourced Marathi language dialect recognition system. The study was carried out using Marathi speech data corpus provided by Linguistic Data Consortium for Indian Language (LDC- IL). This corpus includes four major dialects of Marathi speakers. The efficiency and performance evaluation of the explored spectral (rhythmic) and temporal features are carried out to perform classification tasks. We investigated the performance of six different classifiers; K-nearest neighbor (KNN), Naïve Bayes (NB), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Decision Tree (DT) classifier , Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) classifier and Ridge Classifier (RC). Experimental results have demonstrated that the RC classifier worked well with 84.24% of accuracy for fifteen spectral and temporal features. With twelve MFCCs it has been observed that SGD has outperformed among all classifiers with accuracy of 80.63%. For further study, a prominent feature subset as a part of dimensionality reduction has been identified using chi square, mutual information and ANOVA-f test. In this chi-square based feature extraction method has proven to be the best over over mutual information and ANOVA f-test.

Abstract:
This article reviews a new translation of a classic work of Marathi literature, the autobiography of Lakshmibai Tilak, which tells the story of her life with the great Christian poet Narayan Vaman Tilak. Three English translations of the autobiography are compared, and the story of the Tilaks is summarized. The meaning of discipleship to Jesus in Hindu contexts is explored. The challenge of translation is apparent, and appeal is made for further mining of Marathi original writings to bring out in yet deeper ways the genius and significance of Tilak.

Presumably it was written in the same period as both the play Kaputula la Marx and probably also as some of Kezilahabi’s poems from the second collection Karibu ndani (1988). It is a period of his most critical works. In Mayai – Waziri wa Maradhi the author blames, in a highly symbolic manner, the leading classes of his country who became rich at the expense of common citizens during ten years of Independence, symbolized by ten emaciated ghostly children.

Standen, Alex May. "Re-thinking the victim : representations of gender violence in the narratives of Dacia Maraini." Thesis, University of Birmingham, 2011. http://etheses.bham.ac.uk//id/eprint/2914/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis explores representations of gender violence in the works of Dacia Maraini, tracing a pathway from early novels in which her protagonists suffer predominantly non-physical oppression, to later works which foreground victims of more extreme bodily violence. Taking a chronological approach, it contextualises her work and situates individual texts in their broader cultural framework, highlighting the changes and continuities that these differing backgrounds have provoked. Maraini’s unique position as both author and social commentator is similarly established, with the interplay of her narrative and feminist commitment emerging as a central concern. Fundamental to the thesis is the figure of the female victim, through whom motifs that are recurrent in Maraini’s oeuvre are identified and analysed. The thesis proposes two main lines of argument. Firstly, that there is a change in the way in which Maraini represents gender violence: from signifying one manifestation of women’s overall oppression under patriarchy, it becomes the dominant theme in a number of texts, presented as a specific phenomenon to be understood and exposed. Secondly, that whilst in many of her early texts her protagonists develop strategies for resisting their abusive situations, Maraini’s later female victims demonstrate little agency and, moreover, appear to submit to the violence they undergo.

Abstract:
The characters encountered in The wrath of the ancestors, The Marabi dance and Unojayiti wam bear on an African identity, and they reflect a purely African conception of life. The "Africanness" of their outlook can only be determined when measured against the real life African socio-cultural background. Therefore, as a starting point in this study, I has been essential to explore the various debates about African literature, in an attempt to reveal any common factors that can be used as the basis for a study of the portrayal of characters in this field.

Full text
Abstract:
Avec l’essor du néo-féminisme en Italie à la fin des années 1960, un genre littéraire se développe rapidement : le roman féministe. Souvent relaté à la première personne, il présente des parcours de femmes aux prises avec une société patriarcale qui les opprime et dont elles tentent de se libérer. Dès ses premières oeuvres, Dacia Maraini s’inscrit dans cette veine narrative. Elle en fournira les exemples les plus célèbres (notamment avec Donna in guerra en 1975) et en assurera la diffusion même après la fin du féminisme militant dans les années 1980 avec des oeuvres moins marquées idéologiquement mais toujours inscrites dans une visée de dénonciation des inégalités. À mi-chemin entre création littéraire et engagement politique, les récits féministes à la première personne de Dacia Maraini s’attachent tout particulièrement à la question du corps, interface entre soi et les autres, entre le privé et le politique. Considérant la période 1962- 2001, ce travail montre comment l’auteure investit et questionne les territoires du genre, de la sexualité et de la maternité par le biais de fictions mais aussi d’oeuvres autobiographiques. Dans une optique pluridisciplinaire empruntant à la fois les outils de l’analyse littéraire et de l’histoire des idées, le je des récits du corpus est analysé en tant que modalité énonciative spécifique mais aussi en tant qu’instrument performatif de diffusion du féminisme marainien, dans un rapport circulaire entre art et société, entre culture et pouvoir
With the rise of neo-feminism in Italy in the end of the 1960's, a new literary genre quickly developed: the feminist novel. The first-person narrative was frequently used to portray women who fought against an oppressing patriarchal society from which they tried to get free. From her first works, Dacia Maraini followed this narrative style. She provided its most famous examples (especially in Donna in guerra, in 1975) and she guaranteed its propagation – even after the end of activist feminism in the 1980's – through works that were not as ideologically engaged as the first ones but that still aimed at denouncing inequalities. Halfway between literary creation and political commitment, the first person feminist narrative of Dacia Maraini particularly focuses on the topic of the body, as a link between one and the others, between the personal and the political. I will study the 1962-2001 period, and I will show how the author concentrates on the territories of gender, sexuality and motherhood and how she questions them through fiction and autobiographical stories. I choose a multidisciplinary perspective that takes the tools of both literary analysis and the history of ideas, in order to analyse the use of the first person as a specific enunciative modality and as a performative instrument for the propagation of Marainian feminism in a circular relationship between arts and society, between culture and power

Abstract:
Reflection on the issue of reception of Russian literature amongst the reading public in India reminds us that India has always been a multiconfessional, multi-ethnic and multilingual country. From Kashmir in the North to Kerala in the South, India can be characterised by a rich tradition of highly developed multiple literary cultures. Translational activity has been an essential corollary of this diversity. This essay attempts to investigate the translation and reception of Russian literature in post-colonial India. It discusses the engagement of the Indian intelligentsia with Russian literature through translation, which developed in post-independent India, riding on the high tide of nationalist fervour promoting ideas of an egalitarian society. Translations of Russian writers like Lev Tolstoy, Ivan Turgenev, Fedor Dostoevsky, Anton Chekhov and Maksim Gorky and others enjoyed great popularity in post-colonial India. I examine Marathi-, Malayalam-, and Hindi-language texts. These works are considered by-products of translational activity, which is also a journey, a mediation and a carnival of cultural mutualities.

Abstract:
In India historic forts have been attracting the attention of Indian and Western scholars in recent times. National and international heritage institutions like ICOFORT-ICOMOS (International Scientific Committee on Fortifications and Military Heritage – International Council on Monuments and Sites), ASI (Archaeological Survey of India) and State Archaeology Departments are focusing on the study of these forts, aiming for their conservation. This paper presents a history and analysis of Vijaydurg Fort, one of the Maratha Sea forts of the Konkan region of Maharashtra, built along the coastline of Arabian Sea from 1657 to 1740 C.E. Vijaydurg Fort was an important naval station during the Maratha rule in order to administer the southern part of the Konkan coastline. This paper provides a brief review of the literature on Vijaydurg Fort, and an historical overview of it, and then focuses on a graphic record of the place that comprises maps from both the Maratha and British periods as well as drawings and paintings. The paper seeks to establish what this unique and significant graphic record contributes to an understanding of Vijaydurg Fort. Why was it located where it was, what factors affected its design and its evolution, and why did it maintain its importance over time despite change in the ruling dynasties? The paper shows that Vijaydurg Fort was strategically placed, given the cultural and maritime context, and that the design of the fort has evolved as per the requirements of each ruler and the activities carried out in and around it. Today the fort is accessed only from land, but the design and shape, including the proximity of gates and bastions to the inner built forms, convey its former maritime purpose. The fort was certainly placed at a strategic location using the natural features and it has evolved and undergone physical changes with the changing dynasties. The amendments mostly dealt with expansion and strengthening with smart defence mechanism aimed at safeguarding the trade and maritime activity of the region.

Abstract:
The continuous urbanisation of our living medium, along with professional stress and increased social pressure with regards to looking fit, relate well with the appearance of certain illnesses (leading to weight gain in a paradoxal manner). For a large number of adults, either young or not, management of the situation is done by engaging in sporting physical activities such as long distance running, known for its positive influence on body functionality as well as anxiolityc effect. The purpose of this study is to underline the positive effects of using technological devices - for practitioners of physically engaging leisure activities - towards increasing functional capacity as well as motivational support. The research methods employed consisted of: literature reviews, observation, data recording and processing through an electronic device, case studies. The subject for this research was an knowledgeable adult male, in good health, that focused on running in his spare time, with an ultimate goal of finishing a marathon. He underwent a 6 month training program, during which his partner, coach and psychologist were the device mentioned below. The Polar V800 Multisport GPS Watch posesses a series of qualities (continuous display of values, setable personalised zones as well as alerts, immediate feedback upon exercise completion as moral support) that prove extremely useful as far as leisure activities are concerned. The general conclusion of the study is that any person interested in their personal physical and mental well being, that choose to train their body through running, may easily substitute a coach with an electronic device such as the one in this paper.

Full text
Abstract:
Faced with environmental degradation and strong land pressure, farmers in south-central Niger have intensified their agricultural production systems. Since the 1980s, farmers in the regions of Zinder, Maradi and Tahoua have increased the number of trees and shrubs on their fields, creating new agroforestry parklands over about 5 million hectares. This regreening is not based on tree planting, however, but on farmers protecting and managing natural regeneration of woody species on their crop lands. This has been well documented over the years, but until now, there has not been a thorough review of all of the published peer-referenced as well as grey literature. This report presents the first comprehensive state of knowledge of farmer managed natural regeneration (FMNR) in Niger. Studies show the scale and dynamics of FMNR as well as its multiple impacts. It has increased crop yields (+31 kg/ha to +350 kg/ha), and that supports family food security even in drought years. FMNR has increased the income of all social categories, even the most vulnerable women, men and youth, through the sale of fuelwood and service wood. The pruning of trees in fields has also reduced the distances travelled by women to collect fuelwood. FMNR increased the availability of fodder from trees to farmers and agropastoralists, with households practising FMNR harvesting 30-45 kg of fodder per day. Economists have not calculated all the multiple impacts in monetary terms, but studies on the costs and benefits all indicate that it is economically rational for farmers to invest their labour in FMNR. The costs are modest (no equipment and little labour), and the benefits are substantial, also helping smallholder farmers adapt to climate change, while sequestering millions of tonnes carbon. As a consequence of FMNR, tree cover has been sustained without external incentives (e.g. food or cash-for-work), an outcome that distinguishes this farmer-driven practice from large-scale tree planting projects where farmers’ stewardship ended when the external incentives ended. Agroforestry landscapes are thus being created at scale due to decisions made by hundreds of thousands of individual farmers. It is hoped that information in this report that shows the clear benefits of FMNR in Niger will encourage policy makers in Africa’s drylands to invest in the promotion of FMNR. This foundational practice must form the backbone of landscape wide initiatives if the ambitious targets of the Great Green Wall, AFR100 and similar ambitious restoration initiatives are to be achieved. FMNR is a low cost sustainable land use management practice with a considerable potential for scaling, which can and must be adopted and scaled immediately.
