There are eight kinds of Rasas and these are produced with the combination of Vibhava, Anubhava and Vyabhicharibhava. It is a combination of word and its sense which blesses the reader with an emotional effect. It classifies the dramatic content on the basis of emotions. These emotions are a sophisticated concept of the response to the art. In production of a play, Rasa is created by the actor, is enjoyed by the spectator. This theory is mostly applicable to dance-drama. Kalidasa was a great poet of Sanskrilt language in India. His works mainly based on Mahabharata and Puranas.

Their life seems glamorous and exciting to the outside world, however, in reality, it is pathetic and an isolated one. The aim of this paper is to focus on the origin of Geisha tradition, which is considered as a cultural heritage of Japan. Simultaneously, the paper throws light on various issues such as the role of tradition, culture, history, economy, and prostitution which contribute to the marginalisation of Geisha in personal as well as social arenas. The paper also deals with the reasons which blur the distinction between Geisha tradition and prostitution. To facilitate the interpretation of Geisha tradition, cultural construction of gender roles has been taken into accountItem Anchalik Upnyas Aur Muslim Jeevan(2012) Sen, R.

In the Dalit literature, autobiographical writing occupies important place. By foregrounding the problems of the current social structure of India, these autobiographies present important social critique of the prevalent problems. Balbir Madhopuri's autobiography Changiya Rukh and Omprakash Valmiki's Joothan reflect the internal agony and pain of Dalits. This research work is an attempt to analyze these two autobiographies as a form of social critique. Balbir Madhopuri's Changiya Rukh represents the painful history of Dalit fraternity. It outlines the difficulties, sufferings and harsh realities of Dalit life. Along with the real picture of casteism, it also highlights the physical torture, mental anguish, religious and educational exploitation of Dalits. The writer points out the dual nature of society in the context of caste based discrimination. Omprakash Valmiki's Joothan is not only one man's biography, but it is also a tale of whole Valmiki fraternity. Joothan unveils our cruel social system that exploits Dalit people. The word 'Joothan' itself reflects the poverty, pain and disrespect towards the Dalit fraternity and represents the gravity of the socio-economic and cultural rift between the different castes in Indian society. Through these autobiographies, Omprakash Valmiki and Balbir Madhopuri try to bring forward the difficulties faced by an individual in a layered/divided society. Both autobiographies are centered on the struggle against exploitation on the basis of casteism and point out the need for improvement and upliftment in Dalit people's life. This study highlights the need for greater efforts on the part of individual and the society to remove these obstacles in the path of progressItem Baramah Tukhari: Arth-Sanchar Jugat(Khalsa College, Amritsar, 2018) Kaur, Ramanpreet; Kaur, AmandeepItem Bhagat Sain ki vanime in guru evamsatsang ka mahatav(2011) Sen, R.K.Item Bhagat Sain: Jeevan vasahitye ka mulyankan(2012) Sen, R.K.Item Bhagat Sainkivani me in Ishvar ki samkalpna,(2012) Sen, R.

It is defined as cultural, economic and political movements that are focused towards establishing legal protection and complete equality for the women. It focuses on the gender politics, power relations and sexuality and gives voice to the problems of women. There are various authors all over the world who portray the sufferings of women in their creative works. The foremost objective of this research is to analyze the societal norms of gender, race, class, sexuality, and other social inequalities within the reference of the writings of Shashi Deshpande's The Binding Vine and Toni Morrison's The Bluest Eye. Deshpande (Indian novelist) and Morrison (Afro-American novelist) are two significant women novelists who have made a bold attempt in raising voice against the frustrations and disappointments of women in the patriarchal world. Both Shashi Deshpande and Toni Morrison portray the concealed world of women in their fictional narratives. They depict that women either in India or in America or in any other part of the world, or belonging to any strata of the society suffer the same plight due to the patriarchal setup. A thematic approach from feminist perspective has been adopted for this study.Item Blood Flowers: Selected Poetry of Harbhajan Hundal(South Asian Ensemble Inc., 2015) Sharma, Rajesh; Saini, Alpna
