Description

The book is aimed at providing a short introduction to the divergent ways in which space and place evince themselves in literature. With suitable illustrations from some very well- known canonical texts the book offers a brief survey of the possible ways of looking at the seemingly impossible relationship between Literature and Geography.

Readers familiar with the plight of American or European inner cities, as opposed to the affluence of some of their suburbs, might have profited from a more consistent exposure to perspectives shaped by divergent primal, that is, childhood, landscapes.

Dr Indranil Acharya is Professor and former Head of the Department of English, Vidyasagar University, West Bengal. He completed three UGC Projects as Principal Investigator on Australian and Indian Indigenous folklore in 2008, 2015 and 2017 respectively. He had also been the Deputy Coordinator of the UGC-SAP programme in the Department of English (2009-2014) and State Coordinator of the People's Linguistic Survey of India since 2009. Dr Acharya is the only Bengali academic to have conducted cultural cartographic survey of twenty five indigenous communities of Bengal. Dr. Ujjwal Kr. Panda is an Assistant Professor in the WBES and Head in the Department of English at Govt. General Degree College, Dantan-II which is affiliated to Vidyasagar University, Midnapore, West Bengal.
