Abstract

Vernacular word assumed a subversive role in early twentieth-century Bengal. The emergence of Bengali public sphere and the agitation against the partition of Bengal created a detrimental situation in which vernacular words became dangerous, and threatening, to the stability of the British Raj. Subversive vernacular words formed a sub-text in various media that garnered public support against the Raj and in favour of the acts of opposition against the Raj. The present research article evaluates a few of the dramatic texts in print to analyse how the sub-text vernacular word was circulated and how it affected the public mind against the British Raj.

麻烦的关键词1905-1911 年孟加拉的戏剧书籍和颠覆行为
在二十世纪初的孟加拉,白话词汇扮演着颠覆性的角色。孟加拉语公共领域的出现和反对孟加拉分治的骚动造成了一种不利局面,在这种局面下,白话词语变得危险,并威胁到英国王室的稳定。颠覆性的白话词汇在各种媒体中形成了一种潜台词,赢得了公众对反对王权和支持反对王权行为的支持。本研究文章评估了一些印刷品中的戏剧文本,以分析白话潜台词是如何传播的,以及它是如何影响公众反对英国王室的思想的。
