Dalit Literature: Future Prospects

Journal Title: Research Journal of Philosophy & Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 1

Abstract

Dalits are considered as people of discrete set of low casters, who have been marginalized and oppressed in every possible way. Dalits have recently started showing resistance against oppression through their writings. Many Dalit writers like Bama, baby kamble and arjun Danglay, came up with their own stories of pain and suffering, narrating the agony of Dalit life in its true fashion. Dalit men writers were the first to write their ordeals but of late Dalit women have also come into the literary scene by expressing themselves through their autobiographies. These Dalit women autobiographies are generally written in Indian regional languages like Marathi and Tamil. Dalit writings became a matter of great interest after movements led by jotiba Phule and Dr. B.R. Ambedkar. In my paper i shall deal with the necessity and impact of some famous translated Dalit women autobiographies.
