It ended when winter came but the chill persisted for long. The spectres of war were resurrected with accounts of vigilante violence against those who opposed the liberation, predominantly Urdu speakers. The assassination of top leaders of the freedom struggle and the war, the rise of military dictatorship, the execution of Mujib's killers in 2010, and the trial and execution of Razakars recently, remind one of the deep wounds of war. War literature from Bangladesh and Pakistan continues to appear in spite of officially authorized remembrance and forgetting. In placing testimonial accounts beside fiction, a complex picture of the legacy of a violent time becomes visible. Recent studies into the war have not dealt with the fund of insights provided by the fiction that commemorates the second partition of the subcontinent. In dealing with memories and spectres of suffering, fiction helps to negotiate the "archives of silence" (Yasmin Saikia's phrase) and allows us to analyse narratives of victory and loss. In articulating the deeply gendered universe of War, the fuzzy borders between perpetrators and victims are made visible. 505 00 $a In freedom's wake : unquiet histories, persistent memories -- Another front, another war : women's memoirs and testimonies of the sexual violence in 1971 -- Between `Pakistan' and `Bangladesh' : of resistance, violence, and masculine fantasies -- The aesthetic of freedom : fiction of and in times of siege -- `Strange meeting' : of genres, memories, and truths. 611 27 $a India-Pakistan Conflict (1971) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00969002 611 27 $a Revolution (Bangladesh : 1971) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01354470 651 0 $a Bangladesh $x Literature and the revolution. $y Revolution, 1971 $x Literature and the revolution. 651 0 $a Bangladesh $x History $y Revolution, 1971 $v Personal narratives. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85011525 651 0 $a Bangladesh $x Women. $y Revolution, 1971 $x Women. 650 0 $a Bengali fiction $x History and criticism. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009116926 651 0 $a Bangladesh $x In literature. 650 0 $a India-Pakistan Conflict, 1971. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85064961 650 7 $a Bengali fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00830375 650 7 $a Literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00999953 650 7 $a Women. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01176568 651 7 $a Bangladesh. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01213724 650 7 $a Bangladesch-Krieg. $2 gnd $0 (DE-588)7661729-4 650 7 $a BuÌrgerkrieg $g Motiv. $2 gnd $0 (DE-588)4231679-0 650 7 $a Kollektives GedaÌchtnis. $2 gnd $0 (DE-588)4200793-8 650 7 $a Literatur. $2 gnd $0 (DE-588)4035964-5 651 7 $a Bangladesch. $2 gnd $0 (DE-588)4130903-0 648 7 $a 1971 $2 fast 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 655 7 $a Personal narratives. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423843 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423843 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231017015759.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9279CC5C209B11EABA878C2E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
