Bhalchandra Nemade’s Hindu

A Junk of Rich Living& S.L.Bhairappa’s, Aawran , A Comparative Study of Indianness Perception

Abstract

‘Literature is a creative expression of our emotions and thoughts’. The mode of this expression is obviously language. But the language and literature both cannot be constrained through regional barriers. In this way, any literature is not limited to an explicit language or province. Therefore, the student of literature should always keep in mind that literature is native and universal at one and the same time. If we think about literature in regional Indian languages; we understand that even though the writers create in their respective languages having different expressive styles but there is an enormous similarity in their perceptivity. Such perceptivity is an outcome of the culture they belong. How and what is the real perceptive nature of Indian writers belonging to different regional languages? And how Indianness is being expressed by these Indian writers through various Indian languages? What similarities and differences such expressions really have? To explore these aspects, the researcher has intended to study S.L. Bahriappa’swell-known Kannada novel Aawaran and BhalchandraNemade’s Marathi novel Hindu with a comparative perception.
Actually, both these writers are prolific. But the present study is restricted to these two magnum opus only.
