This paper examines the consciousness of gendered subaltern in Abhi Subedi’s poetic play Dreams of Peach Blossoms and looks at how Subedi deconstructs the existing historiography to bring forth the issue of gendered subaltern who have been subjected to the hegemony of the ruling class. Drawing on insights and postulations from Subaltern Studies theorists such as Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, Partha Chatterjee, Gautam Bhadra and others, this paper examines the pain and agonies of female characters that are glossed over in the grand narrative of the mainstream culture. This paper concludes that while exploring the painful experience of women erased from the pages of history, Subedi is focused on the Maiju culture that began since Bhrikuti’s marriage to a Tibetan King in the sixth century and reveals the injustice of patriarchy against women with an aim to make correction in such distortions of history.

Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak

Gayatri Spivak is one of the foremost intellectuals of the 20th and 21st centuries. Although a literary critic, her work can be seen as philosophical as it is concerned with how to develop a transnational ethical responsibility to the radical “other,” who cannot be accessed by our discursive (and thus institutionalized) regimes of knowledge. Regarded as a leading postcolonial theorist, Spivak is probably best seen as a postcolonial Marxist feminist theorist, although she herself does not feel comfortable with rigid academic labeling. Her work is significantly influenced by the deconstructionist impulses of Jacques Derrida. Additionally, the influence of Gramsci and Marx is prominent in her thinking. Spivak’s work has consistently called attention to the logics of imperialism that inform texts in the West, including in Western feminist scholarship. Relatedly, she has also written significantly on how the nation, in attempting to represent the entirety of a population, cannot access otherness or radical alterity. This is best seen in her work on the subaltern and in her intervention into the famous Indian group of Subaltern Studies scholars. Other related foci of her work have been on comprehending translation as a transnational cultural politics, and what it means to develop a transnational ethics of literacy.

Resumo Este artigo busca analisar os usos realizados do pensamento de Antonio Gramsci na Índia com Subaltern Studies. Detemo-nos, com maior ênfase, à análise da primeira fase do grupo, ao longo dos anos 1980, marcada pela influência do pensamento gramsciano e pela liderança do historiador Ranajit Guha. A proposta consiste em situar a discussão subalternista no âmbito da circulação das ideias de Gramsci em contextos periféricos, adotando como contraponto o caso latino-americano, em particular através da produção dos gramscianos argentinos e brasileiros. Além de incidir no específico objetivo de destacar a internacionalização das ideias do marxista italiano, buscaremos examinar, de modo subjacente, a forma como a própria obra de Marx foi repensada nesses contextos a partir da influência gramsciana, tendo como hipótese tratar de tentativas de tradução do marxismo para a periferia do capitalismo. Buscamos demonstrar essa hipótese através da análise pormenorizada das teses subalternistas, bem como sugerir pontos de encontro com latino-americanos, em especial àqueles vinculados às revistas Pasado y Presente e Presença.

Subaltern Studies

Os Subaltern Studies indianos surgiram no início dos anos 1980 com o objetivo de reescrever criticamente a história das classes subalternas na Índia, tendo como principal influência teórico-política o pensador italiano Antonio Gramsci. A partir de 1988 identificamos uma “virada pós-estruturalista” no trabalho subalternista, com destaque para a obra de Michel Foucault. Neste artigo buscamos chamar a atenção para a influência do pensamento pós-estruturalista no projeto subalternista, bem como retomar o conflito desta corrente teórica com as ideias marxistas, principalmente no que tange às teorizações sobre os modos de poder e dominação.

Partha Chatterjee

In the social context of Nepal, Gandharvas are regarded as Dalits, the people who are suppressed and silenced by the society. Such subaltern groups are thought to have no voice. They are considered ‘muted’ or ‘inarticulate’ without any agency, consciousness and power of resistance. However, breaking such boundaries, the present research aims at exploring the voices of Gandharvas expressed through their folk songs, which express their real subaltern condition and a sense of dissatisfaction towards the mechanism of society constructed and controlled by the elites. For this, some of the representative folk songs are taken and viewed from the perspective of subaltern voice, consciousness, resistance and agency developed by Antonio Gramsci, Ranjit Guha, Dipesh Chakrabarty, Partha Chatterjee and Gautam Bhadra. With the thorough analysis of their songs, it is inferred that although they are deprived of any rank and recognition in the mainstream Nepali society, they have clearly expressed their voices as well as manifested consciousness, reflecting their real life experiences marked by domination, marginalization and suppression. The manifestation of such consciousness and expression of inner voice is also used as an instrument to subvert the hegemony constructed by the complacent upper class of the society.

Middle East Studies

More than twenty-five years ago, a small group of South Asianists challenged the bourgeois-nationalist and colonialist historiography of Indian nationalism. Based mostly in India and critical of “economistic” Marxism, they aimed to recover the occluded histories of what Antonio Gramsci calls “subaltern social groups” and to put into question the relations of power, subordination, and “inferior rank” more generally. The influence of subaltern studies quickly became international, inspiring research projects in Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Latin America, and the Middle East.
