Indictment of Caste System: A Lasting Issue in Indian Fiction - Paperback

by Dr Mamta Bagria (Author), Dr Sangeeta Jhajharia (Author)

The authors within the fringes of this book have tried to bring in the salient features of the philosophical and sociological foundation of caste. The objective of this book is to:

i. Provide a brief historical survey of caste and the state of caste at the present time.

ii. Outline the theoretical foundation of caste.

iii. Illustrate different theoretical approaches through well-known works of Indian English fictions of Mulk Raj Anand, Bhabani Bhattacharya, and Arundhati Roy. It appears that the well-read authors have their focus on the Indian background all through the book.
