Abstract

The Indian partition experience has generally been seen as being extraordinarily complex and violent kind of appearance in literary works. There are manifestations of oppression and violence that are the most recognized themes in the context of postcolonialism. The “decolonization” of writing, which aims to transcend this colonial history, will bring about and illuminate a wide range of subjects through its interpretation. Numerous books have been published about post-colonialism in India, but writers like Khushwant Singh have seen this magnificent historical period as a matter terrifying phenomenon. His novel, Train to Pakistan (1956) was written on the backdrop of Indian partition. The unavoidable reason of partition has been examined in this novel which was a sprout of radicalism and fundamentalism sparked by bolstering community attitudes. They effectively and precisely express the fear and exposure of human existence brought on by the pangs and enigmas of the consequences of the Partition. In addition to offering a wealth of information, Train to Pakistan is also unconventional in the matter of themes, style and narrativity. Khushwant Singh has provided human qualities that would interpret any sense of authenticity, dismay, and credibility rather than presenting the events in political terms. Thus, the story not only describes the existence of man and his struggle to survive, but it also demonstrates that despite social exclusion, people may still be a source of inspiration for others who are unhappy, upset disappointed and misinformed.
探索库什旺特·辛格开往巴基斯坦的火车中人际关系的要素二分法
印度的分治经历通常被视为文学作品中极其复杂和暴力的一种表现。压迫和暴力的表现形式是后殖民主义背景下最公认的主题。写作的“去殖民化”旨在超越这段殖民历史,它的阐释将带来和照亮广泛的主题。关于印度后殖民主义的书籍已经出版了很多,但像Khushwant Singh这样的作家却把这段辉煌的历史时期视为一种可怕的现象。他的小说《开往巴基斯坦的火车》(1956)是在印度分治的背景下写成的。小说探讨了社会分裂的不可避免的原因,即激进主义和原教旨主义的萌芽。它们有效而准确地表达了分治后果带来的痛苦和谜所带来的对人类生存的恐惧和暴露。除了提供丰富的信息外,《开往巴基斯坦的火车》在主题、风格和叙事方面也与众不同。库什旺特·辛格提供了人类的品质,可以解释任何真实性、沮丧感和可信度,而不是用政治术语来呈现事件。因此,这个故事不仅描述了人类的存在和生存的斗争,而且还表明,尽管社会排斥,人们仍然可以成为那些不快乐,沮丧,失望和被误导的人的灵感来源。
