In his response to the Dauphin, his threats before Harfleur’s walls, and his St. Crispin’s Day oration, Henry V deploys what we might call proleptic histories of the present as a means of rhetorical persuasion.

Literary translations work with, rather than out of, the space between languages. Translations evolve not only across linguistic and cultural borders but also across time. It is notable that Shakespeare’s own play texts feature translational properties that can be amplified in translation. This translingual property makes Shakespeare’s text inh…[Read more]

महिषासुर आंदोलन के इस कदर अचानक फैल जाने का एक बड़ा कारण था कि बहुजन समाज में इन परंपराओं की जड़ें बहुत गहरी रही हैं और इनका प्रसार उसके अवचेतन तक रहा है। इन समुदायों से आने वाले फुले, आंबेडकर, पेरियार समेत सभी चिंतकों ने असुर-संस्कृति की न सिर्फ विस्तृत गवेषणा की है, बल्कि अगर आप ध्यान से देखें तो पाएंगे कि यही उनकी वैचारिकी का प्रस्थान…[Read more]
