The Rose and the Lotus
Partnership Studies in the Works of Raja
Raja Rao, one of the founding figures
of Indian English literature, is re-
examined in this comphehensive study
of his fiction, which offers a fresh
critical investigation into both his short
stories and his novels.
Powerfully contradicting the long-
held perception of Raja Rao as a mere
metaphysical writer and the true
bard of quintessential Indianness,
projected by many critics of the first
Commonwealth generation over three
decades,
Stefano
Mercanti
posits
Rao s fiction in terms of its dialogic
interaction
-
the partnership
-
between Western and Eastern cultural
ons
and demonstrates how it
evolves during the course of his
oeuvre
on both the philosophical and the
political level.
The title, The Rose and the Lohis.
signals the discursive terrain for
a multicultural and interwoven
evolution among different cultures,
and points to the need for valuing
relations of reciprocity· rather than
those of domination. Far from
conveying
univoca]
configurations and
nationalistic stereotypes, Rao s idea of
India is seen as the epicentre of many
echoes and dynamic resonances, both
Western and Eastern, through which a
distinct blend of Indian and European
influences is more clearly unravelled.
In this new critical re-appraisal,
Mercanti
draws on non-binary and
inter/multi-disciplinary paradigms,
thus signalling the complex
transformations and multiple
negotiations of a polyglot India caught
between the cultural twilight of the
modern and the traditional. The study
also offers an invaluable linguistic
analysis of Rao s experiment with the
English language, supplemented by a
detailed
glossar}.·.
Stefano Mercanti
is Research Fellow and member of the Partnership Studies
Group
(P S G
)
at the University of
Udine,
where hecompleted his PhD. on Raja Rao s
short-stories. As an Indian Council for Cultural Relations scholarship recipient,
he obtained a further PhD, on Raja Rao s novels, at Bangalore University. His
writings on
postcolonial
literatures, multiculturalism, and partnership literary
theory have appeared in several academic journals. His publications include
L India dell immaginazione nei racconti di
Raja Rao
f2006).
