Thematically, Flight Behavior departs from Prodigal Summer in its examination of the reality and effects of climate change. This novel focuses on those who deny or oppose the reality of climate change and its impact on their lives. The men in Flight Behavior, with the notable exception of the scientist Byron, perpetuate exploitative land use practises. This novel's emphasis on animals and their reproductive success opens up a crucial ecofeminist route. The monarchs have had to relocate their home and nesting grounds due to climate change, and their uncertain yet ominous future is mirrored by other difficult births in the novel: Dellarobia has a traumatic birthing experience with Hester's lambs as she comes to terms with the death of her and Cub's child. Optimism is what readers should take away from the two novels reviewed in this thesis. Understanding how people are connected to everything on Earth will help us revive the planet and stop exploiting people, animals, and nature for profit and pleasure. This paper's final chapter changes from Prodigal Summer's status quo to Flight Behavior's future. The third chapter examined how masculinist land practises replicated patriarchal, exploitative environmental usage and how only the novel's female characters perceived ecological alternatives. This chapter discusses the consequences of ignoring environmental exploitation and climate change. This chapter will cover denial, reality, and climate change mitigation to continue discussing realities and implications. I'll study how humans and nonhumans deny reality. Kingsolver said in an interview that others' denial inspired this novel. I'll list the middle class's environmental needs. Dellarobia becomes a pseudoscientist from a housewife. The environmental movement's butterfly conservationists in Appalachia are a parody. Dellarobia also resembles many of the ladies in chapter two who became reluctant environmentalists. Finally, hope. Dellarobia leads Kingsolver's audience to good change. The novel's ending is uncertain, but I think it's optimistic because of resistance.

Cli-fi is an innovative genre of fiction that modernizes climate science into human stories. Writers of cli-fi discover, what it means to be human in a world that is influenced by warming temperature, powerful storms and rising seas. The cli-fi narratives arouse consciousness about the complex issues of climate change. The novel Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood, published in 2003, is about a post-apocalyptic world which will be a reality in the future. The novel carries two distinct genres- a pre apocalyptic world and a post-apocalyptic world. The pre apocalyptic world is an exaggerated representation of the mid of twenty first century and the post-apocalyptic world is portrayed as the end of twenty first century. Oryx and Crake discusses a world that is completely destructed due to unscientific acts, war, global warming, climate change and diseases. The two genres narrate through the character Snowman who is the only survivor of the destruction. Oryx and Crake, towards the end, narrates the ruin of entire living organisms. Snowman enters the Compound and witnesses a number of changes there. The best example is about the pigoons. Once they were meant to help human beings but now, they are cruel creatures. Bio terrorism and the over use of scientific discoveries have changed the entire bio balance of the planet. Most of characters are not affectionate towards each other. The relationship between Oryx and Jimmy is an exception. This is the reason behind Jimmy’s forgiveness towards all the activities of Crake against nature. For Jimmy, Oryx is the beautiful part of nature and Snowman longs for the love and care he has once received from Oryx.

The Ramayana is the holiest epic of Hindus. It was written by seer Valmiki. The story of The Ramayana is of two men, Lord Rama and Ravana, the king of Lanka. One is the apostle of good and the other of bad. Lord Rama is considered the greatest ideal human in Hindu mythology and the other, Ravana is known for his villainous attitude in the history of mankind. The characters in The Ramayana fulfil both sides of the coin whether the good or bad characters. The virtuous characters show the path of righteousness and the evil characters lead life to the doom. The character of Rama shows us the duty of Dharma and his wife Sita is the symbol of ideal woman in Hindu mythology. The Ramayana is not merely an epic of Hindu religion, but it is the symbol of the entire world which teaches us how to live a pious life amidst the adverse circumstances.

One of the seminal works in the African American body of theatre, Lorraine Hansberry’s A Raisin in the Sun accurately represents the experiences of African American life in urban centres of the US when segregation was in its last stages. Its portrayal of the black community’s repression is realistic in the themes of limited opportunities and acute poverty. This paper focuses on Hansberry’s accurate rendering of black culture and society in the play and how she penetrates the deception and hypocrisy of segregation that eroded the Black community's confidence in American society (and dream). The paper also attempts to answer the generational question that the younger family in the play faces through the prospect of social mobility. It traces the family’s social and economic journey and explores the possibilities of future Youngers’ escape from ghosts of the past and new harsh realities. The play’s conclusion, with Walter declining the offer to sell the new house, was the Youngers’ resistance to oppression and inequality. It also initiated a new social struggle as the family sought social mobility to live in the new setting.

The biggest challenge for a professional in an age where academia is characterised by its ability to quickly and effectively cross borders is to reciprocate and convey the idea that what one has learned or attained should be put to use for the greater good of the people as well as the personal advantages one may accrue. According to this perspective, language plays a crucial role in that it may be utilised effectively as a tool to win business and build entrepreneurship in the context of the various disciplines involved. Academic settings and associated circumstances have influenced how things are done and how texts, facts, and presentations are conceived. In any academic culture, language has evolved into the handmaid of everyone in various patterns of usage for the objectives at hand. There is no replacement for entrepreneurs who strive to uplift people's spirits and minds. In order to ensure that the concept is successful when it is spread to a broad market, R.P. Singh advises to play fine tune to look at the facts on the ground. He achieved this by citing examples from the literature and creating a paradigm for language studies teaching and research where minuteness compensates for celebrating glocalization.

To place Lucknow in today's context, I have attempted to analyse the city's literature and culture in this paper. The paper is divided into three sections: the first gives a brief history of Lucknow up to the end of the nawabi era, focusing on events relevant to this paper; the second discusses music, drama, and poetry, especially the Lucknow School of Urdu poetry, masnavi, and marsia; and the third examines Lucknow's culture from a modern perspective. In his well-known work Guzishta Lakhnau (Purana Lakhnau in Hindi), Abdul Halim Sharar dates the beginning of Lucknow to the period when Lord Ram returned from his banvas (exile in the forest) and assumed the throne of Ayodhya. He granted his brother Lakshman this land as a jagir (estate), and Lakshman erected his home on a rise next to the river that had a deep tunnel that was rumoured to go to Sheshnag (located on the track of Amarnath cave in Kashmir). Around this raised area, a tiny settlement called Lakshman Teela—the word "teela" refers to an elevated area—was established. The unique culture of Lucknow, its secularism, refined manners, etiquette and extreme politeness in conversation lingers on albeit in a diluted form, and it is easy to recognize a person from Lucknow by the way he/she speaks, the use of a blend of Hindi, Urdu and the local dialect Awadhi, often called Hindustani language, the use of ‘aap’ even when addressing children, and the plural ‘hum’ in place of the singular ‘mai’.

The adverse consequences of war and violence are always more on women and children. Men are always the active participants in violence, and women are invariably observed as the passive receiver of the same. Women have to face the harmful effects of war and violence in the form of lost husbands and loss of self-respect. This paper explores the life and struggle of a single woman who lost her husband during the ethnic conflicts. Arupa Patangia Kalita is a famous Assamese novelist who lives in Darrang, Assam. Her novel Felanee was originally written in Assamese in 2003 and translated by Deepika Pukan in 2011. The story of Felanee reveals the awful experiences of a woman, Felanee in the midst of ethnic riots and frenzy atmosphere in Assam. The events mentioned in the novel relate to the real lives of the people living there. Through her protagonist, the writer describes some of the adverse experiences of people during ethnic conflicts, especially the women living in such places. At the time of Felanee’s birth, she was thrown into damp to die but somehow, she survives and starts her battle against all odds. The paper reveals how women sustain their families, especially children, while facing many troubles due to ethnic violence and bloodshed. It also explores how they are marginalized in society and how they support each other in difficult times. Felanee has to face all the brutal consequences of the communal frenzy. She lost almost everything she had, including her loving husband. She was once a queen, but after the riots, she was forced to live like a laborer.

Inequalities are ubiquitous throughout the world and have been a defining aspect of society since prehistoric times. They typically get smaller as civilization develops, but they still exist. They have to do with the unfair distribution of certain highly valued characteristics, such as earnings, wealth, standing, expertise, and power among various units, including people, dwellings, social classes, religious congregations, organizations, castes, regions, and nations. An analysis of disparities' primary objective is to identify the factors that influence how the writer is distributed among relevant units and to explain their causes and effects. An Indian writer who writes in English, Asif Currimbhoy, was familiar with experimental American theatre. He wrote plays with modern themes. He addressed issues of race, class, and gender. Post-colonialism is made up of these three components. His dramas thus draw their themes from the currents of modern politics and existence. He has been referred to as a karma yogi and India's first theatre attention voice. For him, the 1965 drama "Goa," which had its world premiere at Michigan State University, is very special. The Indian invasions of Goa in December 1961 are the subject of the drama.

Sanjay Johari is the newly sprouting figure in the field of Indian English literature. He is the spokesman for his country's doubts, emerging issues and deteriorating condition of the people. In his first play, Kinner Maa, he tries to awaken social consciousness towards kinners who live a life of aloofness in the contemporary world. Generally, people think that kinners are uncounted persons of the society where nobody shows one's sympathy for them. The leading cause of this belief is that they are counted as neither male nor female, but it does not mean, they are not a part of society. They have the same passion and humanistic feelings as others have. We have no right to think they are invaluable persons in society. The humane outlook of Sanjay Johari makes the reader realize how to show sympathetic behavior towards them. Though the problem of gender discrimination is rapidly taking a step in the contemporary world. So many writers also express newly emerging problems like gender issues LGBT, homosexuality, transgender marginalization etc.in their works. Shobha de, Mahesh Dattani, Arundhati Roy etc. wrote many plays on these problems. Sanjay Johari has also tried to draw a picture on his Canvas of writing, and he has given different shades of people on it. Thus, Sanjay Johari tries to evoke human consciousness for such a community through this play. His only purpose is to highlight the realistic picture of the society in which people have automatically divided themselves into different categories. In fact, they are living in the 'Superiority Complex' where there is no place for such a miserable community. The truth is that the people of contemporary society are living in illusion, and perhaps they feel happy, and they are indifferent towards the subalterns and marginalized people.
桑贾伊·乔哈里是印度英语文学领域的新锐人物。他是他的国家的疑虑、新出现的问题和不断恶化的人民状况的代言人。在他的第一部戏剧《金纳马》中,他试图唤醒社会对那些在当代世界过着冷漠生活的金纳人的意识。一般来说,人们认为亲属是社会上无数的人,没有人对他们表示同情。这种看法的主要原因是他们既不被视为男性也不被视为女性,但这并不意味着他们不是社会的一部分。他们有着和别人一样的激情和人文情怀。我们没有权利认为他们是社会上宝贵的人。桑贾伊·乔哈里的人道主义观点让读者意识到如何对他们表示同情。尽管性别歧视问题在当代世界正迅速发展。因此,许多作家也在他们的作品中表达了一些新兴的问题,如性别问题,LGBT,同性恋,变性人边缘化等。Shobha de, Mahesh Dattani, Arundhati Roy等人就这些问题写了很多剧本。桑贾伊·乔哈里也试图在他的画布上画一幅画,他在上面画了不同色调的人。因此,Sanjay Johari试图通过这部剧唤起这样一个社区的人类意识。他唯一的目的是突出社会的现实图景,在这个社会中,人们自动地将自己划分为不同的类别。事实上,他们生活在“优越情结”中,那里没有这样一个悲惨的社区。事实是,当代社会的人们生活在幻觉中,也许他们感到幸福,他们对次等和边缘化的人漠不关心。
{"title":"Social Consciousness Towards Kinners in Sanjay Johari's Play Kinner Maa","authors":"Indu Bharti","doi":"10.56062/gtrs.2023.1.10.196","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.56062/gtrs.2023.1.10.196","url":null,"abstract":"Sanjay Johari is the newly sprouting figure in the field of Indian English literature. He is the spokesman for his country's doubts, emerging issues and deteriorating condition of the people. In his first play, Kinner Maa, he tries to awaken social consciousness towards kinners who live a life of aloofness in the contemporary world. Generally, people think that kinners are uncounted persons of the society where nobody shows one's sympathy for them. The leading cause of this belief is that they are counted as neither male nor female, but it does not mean, they are not a part of society. They have the same passion and humanistic feelings as others have. We have no right to think they are invaluable persons in society. The humane outlook of Sanjay Johari makes the reader realize how to show sympathetic behavior towards them. Though the problem of gender discrimination is rapidly taking a step in the contemporary world. So many writers also express newly emerging problems like gender issues LGBT, homosexuality, transgender marginalization etc.in their works. Shobha de, Mahesh Dattani, Arundhati Roy etc. wrote many plays on these problems. Sanjay Johari has also tried to draw a picture on his Canvas of writing, and he has given different shades of people on it. Thus, Sanjay Johari tries to evoke human consciousness for such a community through this play. His only purpose is to highlight the realistic picture of the society in which people have automatically divided themselves into different categories. In fact, they are living in the 'Superiority Complex' where there is no place for such a miserable community. The truth is that the people of contemporary society are living in illusion, and perhaps they feel happy, and they are indifferent towards the subalterns and marginalized people.","PeriodicalId":125811,"journal":{"name":"Creative Saplings","volume":"78 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132932440","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is said in the Norton Introduction to Literature that "poetry gives a vocabulary for emotion." Peter Howarth argues in his book British Poetry in the Age of Modernism that the social progress that has taken place in modern times has left obvious imprints upon the poetic form. This author is of the opinion that, as a result of advances in scientific knowledge, poetry has advanced, both in terms of its form and its meaning. In his book "The Use of Poetry and the Use of Criticism," Thomas Stern Eliot provides evidence in favour of this viewpoint by confirming that political and socio-historical existence may be analyzed via poetry. In doing so, Eliot anticipates Howarth's interpretation of this concept. When Philip Arthur Larkin says that he works as diligently as possible not just to analyze the social climate throughout his poems but also to discover measures to soothe the traumas endured in the second half of the twentieth century, one can really agree with him. This British poet places the social unrest that occurred during the World Wars in the forefront by adopting such a position, and from this point on, his attention is kept on the existential quest that was manifested in the post-war period when many British citizens were intrigued about their material renovation. This is because the poet believes that the conflicts between the sexes were the root cause of the social unrest.
《诺顿文学导论》中说:“诗歌为情感提供了词汇。”彼得·豪沃思在《现代主义时代的英国诗歌》一书中认为,近代社会的进步对诗歌形式留下了明显的印记。作者认为,由于科学知识的进步,诗歌在形式和意义上都有了进步。托马斯·斯特恩·艾略特在他的书《诗歌的使用和批评的使用》中证实,政治和社会历史的存在可以通过诗歌来分析,为支持这一观点提供了证据。这样一来,艾略特就预见到了豪沃思对这一概念的解释。菲利普·阿瑟·拉金(Philip Arthur Larkin)说,他尽可能勤奋地工作,不仅是为了在他的诗歌中分析社会气候,也是为了找到缓解20世纪下半叶所遭受的创伤的方法,人们完全同意他的观点。这位英国诗人通过这种立场,将世界大战期间发生的社会动荡置于最前沿,从这一点开始,他的注意力一直集中在战后许多英国公民对物质革新感兴趣的存在主义追求上。这是因为诗人认为两性之间的冲突是社会动荡的根源。
