Sukumar Ray’s ‘Nonsense’: Between Logic and the Surreal Dr. Nayan Sarkar, Independent Research Scholar, Nadia, West Bengal, India | ||
ABSTRACT | ||
Although Sukumar Ray's literature is
generally considered to be confined to the children's genre, the current study
has established his 'nonsense' creation as a profound political and
psychological metaphor. The world of 'irrationality' that Sukumar creates,
parallel to global surrealism and Dadaism in the first half of the 20th
century, is essentially an artistic means of questioning colonial modernity and
rigid rationalism. This article analyses Sukumar's social satire in the light
of Homi K. Bhabha's theory of 'hybridity' and Mikhail Bakhtin's concept of
'carnivalesque' in the context of his hybrid animalism. The results of the
study indicate that Sukumar's linguistic construction and bureaucratic
criticism embodied in works like 'Ekushe Ain' establish him as a pioneer of
postmodern literary theory. | ||
