Raychaudhuri will compare literary, cinematic, and artistic representations of partition with a body of oral history interviews in order to look at the ways in which the events of partition are remembered, re-interpreted, and reconstructed, the themes (home, family, violence, childhood, trains, and rivers) that are recycled in the narration, and the voices that remain elided. This will be one of the very first truly interdisciplinary studies of the cultural and memorial legacy of the 1947 Indian/Pakistani partition. While there have been a number of notable studies of oral histories of partition, there has been very little which seeks to compare the 'private' testimonies with 'public' forms of memorialization"-- $c Provided by publisher. 611 27 $a Partition of Bengal (India : 1947) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01353942 611 27 $a Partition of India (1947) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01353944 651 0 $a India $x History $y Partition, 1947 $v Personal narratives. 651 0 $a Bengal (India) $x History $y Partition, 1947 $v Personal narratives. 651 0 $a Pakistan $x History $y 20th century $v Personal narratives. 651 0 $a Bangladesh $x History $y 20th century $v Personal narratives. 650 0 $a Nationalism and collective memory $z India. 650 0 $a Nationalism and collective memory $z Pakistan. 650 0 $a Nationalism and collective memory $z Bangladesh. 650 7 $a Nationalism and collective memory. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01744143 651 7 $a Bangladesh. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01213724 651 7 $a India. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210276 651 7 $a India $z Bengal. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01213579 651 7 $a Pakistan. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210275 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Personal narratives. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423843 830 0 $a Oxford oral history series. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20191105025257.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=31192454E5A311E9B7B99A5997128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
