Title of the paper :
The Discourse of The Dispersed in The Shadow Lines by Amitav Ghosh
Abstract:
The Shadow Lines by Indian writer Amitav Ghosh is a significant work in the realm of diasporic literature. Published in 1988, this novel explores themes of identity, memory, and the impact of historical events on personal and collective lives. It delves into the experiences of the Indian diaspora and examines how geographical and political boundaries shape individual and collective identities. The novel employs a fragmented, non-linear narrative that reflects the complex nature of memory and identity. It intertwines the stories of different characters across various locations, highlighting the fluidity of borders and the interconnectedness of personal histories. The title itself suggests the concept of shifting and often imperceptible boundaries both physical and metaphorical. The novel addresses the impact of political and historical events on the lives of individuals, particularly focusing on the partition of India and the consequent diasporic experiences.
