Excerpt from the introduction to 'Performance and Performativity' (Author: Maria-Sabina Draga Alexandru; Copyright Year: 2015):

"The anniversary issue of The New Yorker looks back to [Midnight's Children, Salman Rushdie's seminal writing style in the English language] and draws a parallel between the birth of America’s post-independence literature, also written in a non-British variety of English, and the 1997 moment, when India celebrated a similar event. At the same time, the issue signals the originality and the local colour of this relatively new school of writing. This is also suggested by its cover, which features a picture of the Hindu god Ganesha, the patron of storytellers, the remover of obstacles in Indian tradition, standing for the revival of the rich mythical traditions of India in contemporary narratives.

The issue exhibits a festive attitude towards Indian fiction. As part of the celebration, it features a picture of the most important contemporary Indian novelists writing in English: Vikram Chandra, Rohinton Mistry, Arundhati Roy, Anita Desai, Amit Chaudhuri, Kiran
Desai, Ardashir Vakil, Vikram Seth, Amitav Ghosh, along with the Sri Lankan author Romesh Gunesekera.The variety of writing styles represented by this group is impressive: from realism (as represented by Rohinton Mistry and also Vikram Seth and Amitav Ghosh in some of their novels) to more subjective fictions of the female self (Anita Desai, Kiran Desai, Arundhati Roy) and digressive storytelling that mixes Indian tradition with contemporary developments of the novel form (Vikram Chandra). They are all grouped around Salman Rushdie, identified as the father figure of the group."

Artist: Charan Sharma (b.1950); A fascination with the architecture and grandeur of ancient palaces of Rajasthan marked most of his earlier work, which focused on depicting the interiors and exteriors of such buildings. The content and style of his later series however are marked with a decisive change with a pronounced meditative ethos. His current imagery explores spiritual themes. Iconic figuration of Krishna, Buddha and other deities, drawn and painted with intricate details in a rich palette add to the luster of his compositions.

The Chronicle of Higher Education //: Susan D. Blum has been teaching college students for 30 years. For much of that time, she was a conventional grader. But finals week at the University of Notre Dame this past spring found Blum, a professor of anthropology, wrapping up her courses in an unconventional way. Instead of giving an exam, she held short one-on-one meetings with each of her students to discuss what they had learned.
