<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;">As theatre and performance studies scholar Sudipto Chatterjee would rightly argue in his work The Colonial Staged: Theatre in Colonial Calcutta, the Hindu past both in its historical and mythological dimensions, had become a customary presence in the Bengali theatre of late 19 th and early 20 th Century. Both, the commercial theatre as well as the parallel theatre that existed at elite houses like Jorashanko Thakurbari were drawing on the Hindu past, be it via its historical figures or mythological narratives. This practice was feeding into the conservative Hindu SpiritualNationalist project of the period as elaborated by Partha Chatterjee in his The Nation and Its Fragments. In his earlier plays written and performed at Jorashanko, Rabindranath Tagore too, was often found to draw from the reservoir of cultural icons of the Hindu past, unproblematically. However, a distinct change in the nature of his treatment of the past can be perceived in the second set of his plays written after he arrived at Santiniketan. The two phases are separated by a time of ten years (18971908) the last play of the first set being Baikunther Khata (1897) and the first play of the second set being Sarodotsav (1908). Sarodotsav written and designed to be performed in form of an Utsav or festiveplay is based on a loose quasimythical structure. Tagore however chooses to destabilise these mythological signifiers both in the play text and the performances. He puts the mythical past constantly into play in an almost Bakhtinian spirit of revelry and thereby breaking it and rewriting it to give shape to a new language of theatre. In this short essay I would like to analyse the play Sarodotsav in its text as well performance to revisit this point of inception and delineate its modalities.</span></span></div>

only affects adults but children and young people are also victims. There are
two common types of diabetes mellitus: <span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Type
I DM</span> also called as insulin dependent diabetes mellitus and <span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Type II DM </span>also called as non-insulin
dependent diabetes mellitus. Not any specific reason but it has been seen that
genetic factors along with environmental influences are involved. People with
obesity are more vulnerable TypeII DM. Stress, alcohol, tobacco are also risk
factors. During this discussion we shall talk about the mechanism of insulin
production and its action along with symptoms, diagnostic tests, treatment and
preventive measures of the disease. </span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><b>Concept Note</b><br /><br />The
first ever conference organized by the JNU Forum for Mutual Learning is titled
“Harry Potter: Recontextualizing the Magic”. Almost two decades since the
publication of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s
Stone</i>, as we begin to gain historical distance, it is now perhaps opportune
to begin contextualizing <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Harry Potter </i>as
a popular cultural phenomenon. This conference aims at bringing together a wide
spectrum of viewpoints about ways in which this can be achieved, and the
methodologies best suited for the purpose. Impediments to this endeavor are
plenty, not least among them being the immense popularity of the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Harry Potter </i>books and films which
forces onto it a timelessness, or at least a classicality which it becomes
imperative to deconstruct. The most obvious way to do this, then, would be to
look at the ways in which <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Harry Potter </i>perpetuates
popular cultural tropes – evaluating the larger narratives such as those of
magic, good and evil and so on vis-à-vis the more particular thematic strains
which work in Rowling: like the radicalization of education or the
allegorization of British (and European) history. However, it is also crucial,
for example, to follow the money, as it were, and examine the ways in which <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Harry Potter </i>has generated in multiple
sectors. It is our objective to create a wide spectrum of positions and
opinions and institute a much needed critical reading of Harry Potter, this
conference being one of the very first of its kind. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Calcutta
witnessed a considerable transformation in its social composition, demography,
and political organisation in the decades post independence and partition. With
changed borders, a population explosion, continued industrial crisis, and
government inefficiency, there emerged a distinct streak of radical left-wing
politics with which the youth of that time are often associated with. Moving
away from this stereotypical notion of the politicised youth and historicising
their engagement with the society however leads to the many subjectivites,
identities and contexts. The paper tries to problematise the idea of a
homogeneous youth culture through the lens of the visual culture of that time.
The varied ways of portrayal of the youth in Bengali films in the two decades
of sixties and seventies helps one in understanding the causalities of their
distinct reactions towards similar events. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"></span>With the question of identity in such
representations central to the argument, the paper further problematises the
notion of what is to be understood by the term ‘youth’ itself, in relation to
the debates that are taking place globally since the 1960s. An
inter-disciplinary approach is adopted by engaging with film theory to better
understand the complexities of cinema and the way it represents individuals and
societies. The paper largely moves from one case study to the other, taking up
films which were primarily based on three fundamental axes and their
inter-connectedness – the city of Calcutta, a concern with the contemporary
socio-political scenario, and the youth. Finally, the paper also addresses the
implications of the subjectivities of the filmmakers, which made a certain kind
of representation possible. The filmmakers themselves were part of a vibrant
youth culture whose treatment of cinema changed the artform itself.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 15.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 18.0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-bidi-language: BN; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The 2014 General Elections in India have seen an unprecedented blitz of media propaganda, which has, given the growing access to digital media with the rise of smartphones and cheaper computers, spilled into new media. With a general atmosphere akin to that of gladiatorial games, it is not surprising to find a slew of android application which encourages people to cheer for their favourite contenders. The run up to the elections has seen a prolific use of digital media, online videos, photographs etc, extensive use of social networking sites and so on. The paper will look at the digital media and games and try to decode how they are aimed at influencing voters. The contention is that rather in the spirit of the Roman gladiatorial games, which were aimed at shifting public focus from immediate issues and calm the populace, the new media blitz, alongwith the gamifying component has been successful in shifting focus to new age hero figures, ‘Mahayodhas’, and the competing policies and ideologies have been brushed under the carpet. </span></div>

person to person according to one’s respective job. Many of us face difficulty
in using computer. Very often we are not able to find the right person to guide
us when we feel lost while using the computer. In order to address the
difficulties faced by the users, we propose to organize a workshop which will focus
on Computer Awareness, in the coming semesters. Moreover, we may conduct the
workshop on a regular basis as per requirements and feedback from the participants.</span><span style="background-image: initial; background-repeat: initial; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;"></span></div>

<span style="background-image: initial; background-repeat: initial; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;"> This
survey aims to help us identify the needs of students by creating awareness
about the use of computer and its applications. On the basis of feedback
collected from this survey, we will design the course curriculum of the program
and plan the sessions accordingly. We look forward to your valuable suggestions
at the end of this survey in order to successfully organize the workshop.</span></div>

<span style="background-image: initial; background-repeat: initial; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;"> The
workshop will be in two phases: First - for basic learner and; the second for the
advanced learner. Date, time and venue of the workshop will be informed by e-mail
and will be updated on the JNU website as well.</span></div>

of colonial medicine have highlighted the hegemonic impact of western
bio-medical notions on indigenous understanding of diseases, recent historians
working with marginalized vernacular archives in the colonies have brought into
focus the vernacular understanding of diseases that not only survived the
onslaught of western clinical notions and therapeutic practices but got a fresh
lease of life through the growth of a shared medical market of vernacular print
and medicines. I would look at the vernacular histories of syphilis and
gonorrhoea in the context of late colonial Bengal. Locally known as <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">upadangsha</i> and <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">prameha</i>, these indigenous categories of venereal diseases elicited
much debate and discussion in the late 19th century Bengali public sphere,
while indigenous understanding of these diseases, circulated through the local
commercial circuits. Using commercial advertising material and vernacular
medical print, I would try to recuperate the vernacular histories of venereal
diseases in the context of late colonial Bengal. In doing so, I would question
some of the assumptions held by colonial medical historians who overwhelmingly
concentrate on state sponsored western medicine and in turn ignore the rich
histories of vernacular medicine<b>.</b></span></div>

the colonial period, writing the past became central to the self-hood of
colonial subjects. The past came to be written in different genres and its
ethics and protocols were widely debated in the public domain. My paper deals
with one aspect of this debate – the meaning of historical reality. I shall
explore this with reference to the work of the Hindi novelist Vrindavanlal
Verma (1889-1969) and a few other Hindi littérateurs of the late colonial
period. Their work on historical subjects – poetry, play, novels – betrays an
underlying tension between the positivist certitude about empirical facts and
the romantic desire for a past that might not be accessed by positivist
methods. I shall investigate this tension by examining their choice of form for
narratives of the past and their use of oral and written sources for
reconstructing the past. Falling outside the domain of professional history-writing,
their works are indicative of the wider cultural tensions central to many
post-colonial societies. Belying any totalizing narrative of modernity or
colonial difference, they draw our attention to multiple oppositional
discourses and practices within the West and the non-West and the complex web

<span style="font-family: "Century","serif";">Individuals
are constrained to act within the framework of the societal institutions. The totality
of actions by individuals in the society determines the outcomes at the social
level. The nature of these outcomes determines which social values will be
realized and which ones will not be realized. As individual values and
preferences are not completely autonomous, in general being influenced by the
dominant social values, the choice of institutional structure has profound
implications for both individual and social values. The phenomenon of
corruption ruptures the relationship between institutions and values in several
different ways. An analysis of this process has the potential of enhancing
one's understanding of how corruption of certain kinds can pose grave threats
to the society.</span></div>

academic discourses. The paper suggests that </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Century","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Indian
folk performance is not a homogenous category, and therefore, the hierarchies
within the folk society also need to be recognized.</span></div>

category "Hinduism" became available for national use, as a political
resource. It argues that various forms of Indian nationalism mobilised the term
"Hindu" or variants thereof in a number of ways, and suggests that
these uses, of "Hindu" as religion, race or nation, can be dated to
very specific points in relatively recent time. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

interconnectedness across world. Events occurring in one part of the globe may
have its ramifications in various other parts.
The market forces and electronic means of communications (such as the
internet and telecommunication) stand out as classis examples. However, this
phenomenon invites few intriguing questions. Has states lost their significance
in the globalized era? Or does the state and the market forces share a
complementary relationship? The proposed discussion seeks to contextualize the
theoretical dimension of globalization in the realm of sport (cricket and
football). Besides, the discussion intends to investigate several greys area of
globalizing phenomenon pertaining to the conception of identity. In a nutshell,
the paper seeks to investigate the political as well as the economic aspects
related to the globalizing tendencies on cricket and football. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Vrinda; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">Many social, biological,
and information systems can be well described by network. Where nodes represent
individuals, biological elements (proteins, genes, etc.), computers, web users,
and so on and links denote the relations or interactions between nodes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Vrinda; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">A network is represented
by a mathematical structure called a graph. Where a graph G is a structure
consisting of a set of vertices V (also called nodes), and a set of edges E
(also called arcs or links).Great efforts have been made to understand the evolution
of networks (by R. Albert, A.-L. Barab ́asi). Social networks are very dynamic
objects, since new edges and vertices are added to the graph over the time.
Understanding the dynamics that drives the evolution of social network is a
complex problem due to a large number of variables. But, a comparatively easier
problem is to understand the association between two specific nodes. Hence we
predict the likelihood of a future association between two nodes, knowing that
there is no association between the nodes in the current state of the graph.
Predicting certain changes to a social network is called the link prediction
problem. Liben-Nowell & Kleinberg (2003) explain it as:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<i><span lang="EN-IN" style="font-family: Cambria, serif;">Given a
snapshot of a social network at time t, we need to accurately predict the edges
that will be added to the network during the interval from time t to a given
future time t' where t < t' .</span></i><span style="font-family: Cambria, serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">

<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Vrinda; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">Link prediction has also
many applications outside the domain of social networks. For example, in
e-commerce it can help build recommendation systems; in the security domain
link prediction identifying the structure of a criminal network (i.e.,
predicting missing links in a criminal network using incomplete data); in
bioinformatics link prediction can be used to find interactions between proteins
etc.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">I will argue that there is an
intimate relationship between capitalism, imperialism and international law
that accounts for the fact that the structure and process of international law
have always disadvantaged third world peoples, especially its subaltern groups.
Old imperialism or colonialism influenced its development in a fundamental way
and was succeeded by neo-colonialism and now global imperialism. I will
identify the key features of international law in the era of global
imperialism.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">There are a lot of discussion about the origin or more significantly manifestation of Art in Indic tradition. All the discussions reveal the same fact that Art is the manifestation of our own Heart. Reality creates herself through Art. Indic tradition sees Art as Yoga. Here, Yoga is a means of achieving harmony or unity of consciousness or mental concentration to overlook the distinction between the subject and object.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Citrasūtra a section of Visnudharmottara Purāna, Citralaksana of Nagnajit speaks about the divine origin of Art in a form of painting. There are also much more contexts about the divine origin of Art. Whether we see these stories as a myth, or in other way it is a fact that they convey the essential truth that how Art is revealed or gets manifestation. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Later Indian philosophers drawing inspiration from these myths philosophize the birth of Art. The presentation seeks to unfold the scenes of unbroken Indic tradition of stories of birth of Art and their philosophy.</span></span></div>

<i><span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Vrinda; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">India has a vibrant
culture of performances and theatres from tribal to folk to proscenium to
street-theatre to amateur performance-genres. The history of Indian theatre has
been written in terms of shastras, archeological evidences, documentations and
colonial ideological ‘trappings’. After Independence, debates revolved around
the idea of the ‘theatre of the roots’, with the National School of Drama being
established as a training institution. With it began the process of
problematizing the idea of the ‘national’ theatre. This paper attempts to open
up the discussion regarding the writing of history of the Indian theatre. It
also deals with the development of theatre in post-independent India and
attempts to make a case for the existence of many Indian theaters rather than
the idea of the singular Indian theater. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<i><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 112%; mso-bidi-font-family: Vrinda;">Since early May 2013, there has been a significant fall in the value of
the Rupee vis-a-vis the Dollar leading to a historic low at 67 rupees per
dollar a few days back. US Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke's statement
appears to have caused a free fall in the value of the rupee, or so the RBI
would have us believe. But the Indian Rupee has been falling in value
quite consistently since August 2011. What are the factors behind this free
fall? Are they domestic or are they international? Could it have been
controlled? Can it at least now be controlled? These are a few questions that
this talk would attempt to discuss. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 112%; mso-bidi-font-family: Vrinda;">The Mahābhārata has been interpreted differently by various scholars.
Some consider it as a text whose layers should be separated to find out an
historical kernel, some view it as a synthetic whole. It has been variously
seen as a history of the Kurus, as a literary creation based on the śānta rasa,
as an extension of Indo-European mythology, or as a Brahmanical reaction
against heterodox religions. However, a careful survey of the text, by
analyzing its internal evidence and comparing it with other corroborative
sources may be useful to historically locate the history of its text-creation
in various stages by various authors.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 113%; mso-bidi-font-family: Vrinda;">In that history, a very significant factor seems to be its attributed
author, Vyāsa. The paper tries to show the intricacies of that attribution
which is crucial for the text’s assertion of a new philosophy of behavioural
fitness and ability over the crystallizing Brahmanical notion of hereditary var</span></i><i><span style="font-family: "Cambria Math","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 113%; mso-bidi-font-family: "Cambria Math";">ṇ</span></i><i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 113%; mso-bidi-font-family: Vrinda;">a.

paper also discusses how this fresh and unusual voice makes the text an
epoch-making one in tradition, representative of the end of an era, the
juncture in history when ‘past’ ends and ‘future’ begins.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Vrinda;"> This paper intends to narrate the unexplored
history of the film society movement in India. It is an attempt to revisit a
moment of organized cinephilia that was primarily centered on the appreciation
of International and Indian art cinemas as well as the Indian New Wave
movement. The period from the early 1960s through the 1970s is referred to as
the high moment of such cultural activity marked by debates on the art and
craft of cinema, institutional support from the government combined with
increasing success in terms of screenings and memberships, which eventually
waned<span style="color: red;"> </span>out by the mid 1980s. By examining the inception histories of
significant film societies of the movement, specifically from Calcutta, Delhi,
Bombay, Patna and Bangalore, this paper will map the collaborations and
networks through which films were accessed, circulated and viewed as an
alternative to the prevalent mainstream cinemas. Looking at stories and
memories of film society members, this paper argues that the circulation of the
celluloid film object and peoples’ experiences around it were as crucial to the
momentum of the film society movement as the content of the alternative cinemas
that was preferred. Therefore, this paper uses the prism of cinephilia to
generate the variant film cultures engendered by film societies as they
endeavored to make meaning of cinema and its relationship to modern society. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

event of the year for the nation and sets the direction of the economy. As
such, it is crucial to the life of every individual – whether a businessman or
the poorest of the poor. While tax related proposals are important,
expenditures are crucial to the well-being of the public. The Union budget is
important for the States since resources are transferred to them. It impacts
the health of the Public Sector Units and determines how well the Five year
Plans work.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-family: Vrinda;">The
presence of crime in society today is a multifaceted problem. It is the result
of many factors and no attempt will be made here to explain all crime. Crime is
the violation of the rules and regulations enforced by the society from time to
time for which definite punishment is set by law. It is an inherent part of
every society irrespective of their level of development, geographical location
etc. But the magnitude and the nature of crime vary across time, space. Social
crime is a deviated behaviour and to a large extent tradition, culture of the
society has bearing on this. Such as the nature of crime against women is
somehow determined by the patriarchy which put women as a subordinate to men
like a weak, private commodity. In the present discussion we would like to
focuses on the present nature of crime against women in Delhi and would like to
explore the possibilities of reducing this by introducing the geospatial
technology. Since the integration of geospatial and surveillance technologies
has the capability of quick decision making, we’ll discuss here the
opportunities of whether we can have any Geospatial solution of social crime or
not?<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

branch of language technology) lies in the intersection of linguistics and
computer science. The language technology or Natural Language Processing (NLP)
has its own place in artificial intelligence to enable machines interact with
human intelligently. Speech technology involves three primary tasks namely,
speech synthesis, speech recognition, and speaker recognition. Speech synthesis
has its scope of use wherever there is a digital text and a need to read this.
For Indian languages other than Sanskrit, there have many TTS developed and are
being developed. The author is developing a speech synthesis system (also known
as Text-to-Speech or TTS) for Sanskrit as a part of his PhD thesis. In this presentation, he will also give demo
of ready components of the TTS system.</i></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><b>Abstract</b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">The Japanese word ‘manga’ literally means ‘whimsical pictures’ and
is the term used to describe the body of comic books and graphic novels produced
in Japan and following a distinctively Japanese style. They are also classified
into categories corresponding to age and gender groups. <i>Shounen</i> manga are for boys and <i>shoujo</i>
manga for girls, <i>seinen</i> for adult men
and so on. Owing to the varying themes and target audiences, manga is different
from Western comics in its depiction of violence and sexuality, given freer
rein than the child-oriented comic books of the West. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">My research examines one sub-genre of <i>shoujo</i> manga, a hugely popular genre currently referred to as Boys’
Love: comic books depicting male homosexual relationships, drawn primarily by
women and targeted almost exclusively at a female readership. There are two
sub-genres under the Boys’ Love phenomenon, <i>shounen-ai</i>
(from the words for young boy and love) which are soft romances with little or
no explicit content and <i>yaoi</i>, which
is, in fan lingo, ‘porn without plot’. Boys’ Love (commonly referred to by the
abbreviated form BL) distinguishes itself from slash fiction not only in the
fact that it uses images, not words on a page, to tell stories, but also in
that it lacks the ‘underground’ nature of slash. BL manga are sold alongside
other manga titles in convenience stores, there is no element of secrecy
involved in their production. </span><span lang="EN-IN">. It is easy enough to note that there is a great potential for
subversion in the Boys’ Love genre, where women not only take over male
narrative voices and through that control over male spaces, but also in that
they take the idea of romantic relationships outside the heterosexual paradigm.
The object of desire in Boys’ Love manga is not a woman but a man, the gaze
that looks upon him that of the desiring female. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">I will examine Boys’ Love manga, how they shape, subvert
and question norms related to gender and sexuality in envisioning and
idealising male homosexuality. In this paper I will primarily answer the
question of how, in depicting male homosexual relationships in which the female
body, and indeed any female presence at all is negated, how do BL manga allow women a space to
examine their own sexuality?</span></div>
