| dc.description.abstract | This thesis analyses JG Farrell’s novel The Siege of Krishnapur from the perspective of postcolonial humour. The victimization and dehumanization of Indian native sepoys in the novel is unveiled and done justice to the characters who have been oppressed and treated very badly. The research, therefore, attempts to uncover the master-subaltern relationship under colonial system through the use of humour. The humour helps trace out the hostile relationship between master and subaltern in the novel. | en_US |
