This volume brings together the essays of Chitta Ranjan Das
(1923-2011), a creative experimenter and writer, on literature,
culture, life and the human condition. It presents a different
vision and version of the post-colonial imagination and social and
literary criticism which is rooted in soil, soul and cosmos. While
a majority of post-colonial discourse is still predominantly
metropolitan, giving us very little discussion on creative
endeavours in different language spaces of India and the world,
this book presents radical new pathways and creative collaborations
which break conventional boundaries between the periphery and the
centre, literature and life, mother languages and metropolitan
languages, and East and West. It offers a new archaeology of
knowledge as a regenerative archaeology of life where knowledge,
action and devotion come together for new explorations and
transformations. It broadens and deepens our universe of discourse
on literature, philosophy and world transformations, and is a
monumental contribution to alternative imagination and cosmopolitan
experimentation.
