Voices from the Margin A Study of Pratibha Ray's Yajnaseni -- Understanding Resistance through the Writings of Popular Folklore -- Resistance in Existence Understanding Life in Franz Kafka's The Metamorphosis -- Maya Angelou's I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings The Case of Critical Resistance.

The comprehensive volume delves into the discursive valences and contingencies of resistance. It examines key issues and situations within the complex power dynamics of various cultures, societies, nations, and ethnicities. It explores the varying meanings of resistance in different contexts with analyses of select literary texts from various works of literature worldwide that range from Tribal writings in English and Nepalese literature to British literature and American literature. It evaluates various factors, including structure, situation, context, culture, agency, place, motives, ideology and oppression within the discourse of resistance. It emphasizes the cultural relevance of the study of resistance across a range of fields, such as postcolonialism, feminism, ecocriticism, gender relations and sexuality, myth and folklore, existentialism, cultural studies, rural feminism, trauma theory and violence, globalization, ethnicity and identity, child trafficking and third gender issues, subalternity and marginality. The book covers the genres of novels, poetry, autobiography, and short stories. It investigates the potency of these literary forms as cultural expressions of resistance. It is an essential read for students, researchers, and teachers worldwide who are enthusiastic and curious about the meanings and contexts of resistance and its representations in literature.
