    Reconstructing the Historical Past in V. S. Naipaul's A Way in the World
    (Department of English, 2009) Sapkota, Krishna Prasad
    V. S. Naipaul’s Novel A Way in the World narrates the forgotten and lost stories of the past which contributed to the construction of Trinidad, particularly the immigrants and marginalized individuals in the mainstream history. Naipaul writes the history of Trinidad as a travelogue. In Trinidad, ancestral past was forgotten and historical representation did not include all. Colonial representation remained incomplete and explained nothing about lower class workers, revolutionary figure of Caribbean countries and their situation, explorers of colonial period and real facts. Naipaul rewrites the historical fiction of those people who exist on the margin of everyday history by fictionalizing it and by using imaginative creation. A Way in the World discloses various truths and historicizes those characters that are hidden in the traditional history. With this novel, he gives a voice to those who were unheard of the so-called official history. He expresses his own voice and reconstructs the historical past of Trinidad and other Caribbean countries.

    Subaltern Identity Politics in Arundhati Roy’s The God of Small Things
    (Central Department of English, 2007) Sapkota, Krishna Prasad
    The novel unveils a gamut of traumatic experiences of the subaltern people aggravated by the socio-politico-cultural orthodoxy that has long persisted in the Keralite society, it also advocates the need of restructuring the value system and institutions (love, sex, marriage, kinship etc) through the disruption and discontinuity of indecent taboos in view of redeeming the identity of the people in the margin. Arundhati Roy textualizes the domestic violence meted out against women, children and dalit within the family and society. The novel raises its voice of protest against the obsolete structural and ideological set-ups and dismantles the historical truths by using taboos and placing women and dalit characters, Ammu and Velutha, in the central narrative of the novel.
