Van Dyck, Karen
Kassandra and the Censors: Greek Poetry since 1967
(Series: Reading Women Writing) In this pioneering study of contemporary Greek poetry, Karen Van Dyck investigates modernist and postmodernist poetics at the edge of Europe. She traces the influential role of Greek women writers back to the sexual politics of censorship under the dictatorship (1967-1974). Reading the effects of censorship--in cartoons, the dictator's speeches, the poetry of the Nobel Laureate George Seferis, and the younger generation of poets--she shows how women poets use strategies which, although initiated in response to the regime's press law, prove useful in articulating a feminist critique. In poetry collections by Rhea Galanaki, Jenny Mastoraki and Maria Laina, among others, she analyzes how the censors' tactics for stabilizing signification are redeployed to disrupt fixed meanings and gender roles. As much a literary analysis of culture as a cultural analysis of literature, her book explores how censorship, consumerism, and feminism influence contemporary Greek women's poetry as well as how the resistance to clarity in this poetry trains readers to rethink these cultural practices. Only with greater attention to the cultural and formal specificity of writing, Van Dyck argues, is it possible to theorize the lessons of censorship and women's writing.305p. bibliography. index Book

Varalaxmi Janapathy
Women Key to Successful Democracy [Hardcover]
Panchayats played a major role in the implementation of administration and also justice in ancient India, and our history tells us that Grama Panchayats were the bed-rocks for any development activity. Speaking about Grama Swaraj, Gandhiji said, “our native ancient institution like Grama Panchayat should be revived. Ours is a country of self-ruled institutions”. Huyen– Tsang of China, the famous traveller of 18th century, wrote highly appreciating our Panchayat Raj System and several historians wrote books analysing this ancient system. But, with the coming of Britishers, this system of decentralisation had been rooted out. Women are not to be treated as weaker segment of society or passive beneficiaries. To improve the status of women and for all-round development of society, it is necessary to harness the full potential of the silent half. Women should be involved at all level in planning, decision making, policy framing and in the implementation of all developmental programmes. Reservation for women in government and in parliamentary process is essential to enable them to influence gender sensitive local planning and implementation. Because of the many facilities, provided, new breed of women politicians in India’s small towns is coming up and they become a political force to reckon with in the years to come. They are educated and some favour to be active in public life. Increasing number of these enlightened women, who are articulate and active for making women greater participants in politics. Passage of the Bill is a formality but bringing about awareness is more essential. About The Author:- Varalakshmi Janapathy had a brilliant academic career and studied at the famous Andhra Christian College, Guntur and Law College, Madras. She took a PG-diploma in Politics and Public Administration from Madras University and another diploma in Journalism from BIET, Bombay. She took Visarada in Hindi from DBHP Sabha, Madras. She is a well known writer and was winner of a Gold Medal in inter-collegiate debates. Her interests range from music to gardening and traveling. ,Her research work on “Indian Women Through Ages” was well received by the press and the public as one of the outstanding works. Its English version was released by the Honourable Prime Minister, Man Mohan Singh ji, in 2004. She received the coveted AP Sahitya Academy Award, Grihalakshmi Swarna Kankanam from Kesari Kuteeram Madras and Kalaprapoorna from Andhra University, Durga Bai Deshmukh Award from Abhinandana, Narla Sahiti Puraskaram in addition to several other awards and Life Achievement Award from Vivekananda Institute of the Human Exellence, Hyderabad.
