Dr. Gaurav BalyanAbstract: \\r\\nSport is one area where gender distinctions are clearly evident. The issue is more socio-psychological than any other. Today, as we stand near the beginning of another thousand years, it is reprehensible that individuals are administered so suddenly, especially in sports. Women are part of the total people, but they are not given vaguely expected results.\\r\\nThings are different and improving but a lot remains to be achieved. Men participate in the benefits in all walks of life. Gender inequality is an important issue and moderate progress/measures should be taken to change what is happening. Female feticide is the most incredibly shocking thing. The latest agitation is clearly misused for the murder of the young female child. Far from giving her a fair education and a bright life, we are trying to oust the Indian woman from this world. Faith norms govern much of our thinking\\r\\n |

Manisha SagarAbstract: In Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni’s novel, The Mistress of Spices, the protagonist, Tilo, though submissive to the patriarchal dictates and was also a victim of male violence in her early life, gives vent to her magical powers of healing others with her spices when the First Mother teaches her to do so and she sets her shop at Oakland. The appeal of the book was such that it was soon adapted into a movie, and both versions—the movie and the book—question the patriarchal parameters that ask women to be submissive and faithful. But soon Tilo becomes a desiring woman as she meets Raven, and thus her oaths to be faithful to the spices are broken, and she begins to lose her power. Instead of submitting to the oaths, she decides to give vent to her desires. She leaves the shop and decides to find her own identity, and thus, she creates a happy life for herself along with Raven/Doug at the end of the narrative. It is the diasporic context of the US – the liberating “third space” (Hall) which probably provides her the scope to seek an identity for herself and make the most of her life. Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni, with the use of a magic realist ending, can create that magical “third space” (Hall) which is liberating for women, thereby enhancing the appeal of the book and, by extension, the movie. The paper “Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni’s The Mistress of Spices: A comparative analysis of novel and film from a diasporic lens” explores the book and the novel to understand how the narrative is one of feminist liberation within the diasporic set-up. \r\n |
