The Fusing Horizons is a collection of critical essays by professors/academicians in Indian Universities on Indian writing in English. Literary concerns of contemporary interest have been refreshingly examined so as to provide a novelty in critiquing spontaneity in response and objectivity in insights. Indian writers from R.K. Narayan to the present are revisited and therefore the book encompasses and deliberates on a wide range of topics. The new perspectives from which writers and their works have been seen enhances a fusion of horizons in this hermeneutical tradition. Dedicated to the memory of Professor Dr. K.S. Ramamurti the essays seek to be insightful jargon free and pluralistic in their approach. Sociological archetypal religious and feminist issues have homogenized here into a refreshing experience. It is hoped that the book would be a rewarding study for students researchers and teachers alike and indeed a valuable possession for all lovers of Indian literature in English. 154 pp. Codice articolo 71014
