It refers to the creation of an environment in which the individual is made to feel pride even in slavery. Marginalization in the case of women is more pronounced as it is not limited to any caste, creed or religion. It is a universal phenomenon and marriage as an institution is one of the basic foundations on which the marginalization of women is culturally strengthened. Marriages are a pivotal part of every society. By conforming to the institution of marriage, two distinct minds take oaths to stick by each other’s side lifelong. But in reality, the institution of marriage replicates the other side of patriarchal domination which contributes to the peripheral status of women. They are subjected to inevitable suppression, subjugation, and oppression in the environs of the marital frame regardless of the renunciation and forsaking of individuality by the woman for the sake of family. They are the victim of sheer oppression and violence due to their vulnerable status from time immemorial. In this paper, an attempt has been made to bring forth the hardships of marital life and how it assists in the marginalization of women with reference to the works of Shashi Deshpande. Her works of fiction, The Dark Holds No Terrors (1980) and That Long Silence (1988) aptly elucidate the issues of marital discord and disharmonious conjugal relationships which career-oriented women experience in their day-to-day existence. Women helplessly oscillate between traditional codes and modern aspirations, bearing the pangs of dead desires and unexpressed thoughts in public as well as domestic spheres. Characterization of women like Sarita and Jaya delineate the marginalization of women in a poignant and powerful manner.","PeriodicalId":40984,"journal":{"name":"Literary Voice","volume":"15 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2024-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140438550","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}

Crafted as vehicles for political messaging throughout history, statues endure as relics, actively participating in societal discourse. They represent collective imprints, embodying a community’s history and broadcasting its traditions, institutions, beliefs, and ideologies. This study explores the commemorative practices and visual rhetoric of monuments and statues, focusing on the iconic status of Maharaja Ranjit Singh in Punjab. Analyzing statues in Amritsar and Ludhiana, it delves into their symbolic allure, guided by Mitchell’s Picture Theory, Roland Barthes’ conception of images as political subjects, and Stuart Hall’s “Encoding-Decoding” discourse. Unearthing the interplay of images in shaping collective memory, this research illuminates the contemporary political and cultural significance of Maharaja Ranjit Singh’s statues.","PeriodicalId":40984,"journal":{"name":"Literary Voice","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2024-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140441864","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}

Revathi, a distinguished trans activist; and Me Hijra, Me Laxmi (2015) by Laxmi Narayan Tripathi, a prominent Bharatnatyam dancer and trans activist. The autobiographical accounts critically explore the contribution of prevalent heteronormative ideologies to the marginalised status of transgender individuals in India. The narratives intricately depict the experiences of transgender individuals who grapple with a sense of mismatch between their assigned sex and psychological sex, ultimately leading them to undergo Sex Reassignment Surgery (SRS) and related medical procedures. Drawing upon the perspectives of post-transsexual scholars such as Jacques Juliet, Janice Raymond, Jay Prosser, Kate Bornstein, and Sandy Stone, the study asserts that the transgender body is \"programmed to disappear,\" promotes a \"denial of mixture,\" and perpetuates the \"purity\" of gender after the corporeal transition. Furthermore, the paper examines how trans individuals incorporate established medical discourse on transsexuality into their autobiographies. The research findings underscore the need to develop a transgender discourse capable of offering a counter-discourse to the binary explanations of gender. ","PeriodicalId":40984,"journal":{"name":"Literary Voice","volume":"22 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2024-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140438598","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}

The profound impact of morals on society has prompted investigations into their developmental processes within individuals. American psychologist, Lawrence Kohlberg insinuated a comprehensive theory of moral development that stipulates a outline for understanding the stages individuals traverse on their moral journey from childhood to adulthood. Kohlberg’s theory delineates six stages across three levels: preconventional, conventional, and post-conventional. This study seeks to use Kohlberg’s theory in the dystopian fiction Poster Girl by Veronica Roth, with a specific focus on the character Sonya Kantor. Sonya undergoes a transformative moral journey, after recognising the inadequacies in her previously held values and beliefs. The research analyses Sonya’s moral development in alignment with the six stages delineated by Kohlberg, shedding light on the intricate nuances of her evolving moral perspectives. ","PeriodicalId":40984,"journal":{"name":"Literary Voice","volume":"53 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2024-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140439450","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}

This study aims to elucidate optimistic coping mechanisms depicted in Emily St. John Mandel’s Station Eleven (2014) a seminal work in its genre with striking similarities to the era of COVID-19. This analysis will utilise Viktor Frankl’s optimistic existential philosophy, Logotherapy, as a framework to examine how the novel’s characters navigate and find meaning in their drastically altered, post-pandemic reality.

Owing to the techniques and strategies employed in this novel, it can be called the true representative of postmodern fiction. As it breaks with realism and avoids rigid genre distinction, postmodernism deconstructs the wholeness and completeness associated with conventional storytelling ways. There is use of postmodern narrative as the novel is highly self-reflexive and Martel also experiments with intertextuality and historiographic metafiction. He weaves this novel withextraordinary and unusual events. By blending facts and fiction, he makes space for the readers for different interpretations. The contours of postmodern techniques such as fragmentation, metafiction, multiple points of view, advocacy of plurality of histories, and sheer rejection of grand narratives are used in this novel.

According to scholarly reports, the first waves of Indian immigrants are known to show a deep attachment to their native cultures, their ancestors, their languages, and their interpersonal relationships. On the other hand, their second-generation constantly face the challenge of moving between two different cultural contexts and finding a harmonious balance between these two divergent identities. The hyphenated identity of people in diaspora communities has a significant impact on their closest interpersonal relationships, leading to various issues such as longing for the past, feelings of isolation, mourning and melancholy, and to name a few. These issues are effectively explored by renowned Pulitzer Prize-winning writer Jhumpa Lahiri in her third book, Unaccustomed Earth (2008), and are, therefore, the focus of this paper. The short stories included in this collection exhibit a poignant and intricate connection to the prevailing social landscape of contemporary society. This paper explores the impact of hyphenated identity on interpersonal relationships in the context of the ‘American Dream’ as manifest in the chosen text.

It explores the narrative significance of comics and the convergence of queerness within the medium, framed within the theoretical frameworks of Scott McCloud, Richard Walsh, Ramzi Fawaz, and Darieck Scott. The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate how words and images interact to communicate Maia's gender and sexual identities in a way that defies accepted cultural norms. It analyses and exhibits the ability of the visual narrative to convey nuanced facets of queer identity, ranging from representations of physical discomfort during medical exams to the presentation of romantic fantasies defying binary gender norms. The paper concludes that Maia employs an effective tool to convey the subtleties of eir queer identity through the symbiotic relationship between words and pictures, based on a careful analysis of eir narrative. Beyond the confines of conventional language, a more comprehensive expression of gender and sexuality is made possible by the interaction of words and images. ","PeriodicalId":40984,"journal":{"name":"Literary Voice","volume":"21 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2024-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140438711","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}

Sri Aurobindo fulfilled that space and employed his ideas of nationalism that has been the subject of scholarly debate for a long period. His inclusive national strategies to stir the entire nation played a key role. But his conception of nationalism goes beyond the struggle for freedom. He was on a mission to create a new country based on India's rich spiritual and cultural heritage and modern European sciences. As far as India’s diversity is concerned, the task seemed greater than anything else. His writings especially in his journal Bande Mataram created waves among the masses. He appealed to the then-fragmented population to ascribe to the identity of one nation. His nationalism aimed at the Indian Renaissance through both political freedom and spiritual regeneration. This study will highlight most of the salient features of his nationalism.","PeriodicalId":40984,"journal":{"name":"Literary Voice","volume":"14 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2024-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140441126","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}
