Résumé
This book, entitled 'Samay Se Samvad: Janvikalp Sanchayita' (Conversing with time: Compendium of Janvikalp), is a compilation of the representative content published in Hindi monthly 'Janvikalp'. Thanks to its pro-people, unbiased and original content, the journal, published from Patna under the editorship of Premkumar Mani and Pramod Ranjan in 2007, had created quite a stir among the social activists and intellectuals. The articles and interviews included in this book have been picked for their datelessness. The contents, centred on religion, science, language, history and renaissance, introduce the readers not only to new facts but to a new perspective, jolting the traditional framework of thought and beliefs so hard that it cracks and even collapses. Many of the articles included in the book seek to bring to the fore the social, cultural, and political struggles of marginalized communities, which could not find a place in the current identity discourse. This book is not only a must as a reference for students of the history of Indian journalism but it is also helpful in understanding the political, social, and intellectual turbulence that hit India at the beginning of the 21st century.Excerpts from what the contemporary newspapers and magazines had to say about Janvikalp:The articles being published in Janvikalp have a deep resonance in the literary world. Free from biases, it is taking a clear stand by opposing the status quo and ritualism – Dainik HindustanThis thin, 36-page magazine's arrival on the scene poses the same kind of challenge to the gargantuan media empire of Murdoch, as Iraq had posed to the imperialistic ambitions of Bush – Rashtriya Sahara Amid scores of small magazines raising the voice of dissent and challenging the idea that there can be no alternative media, Janvikalp has carved out a niche for itself in a very short duration. It has come to command a position whereby you may disagree with it at the level of thought but you cannot ignore it. This can be gauged from the feedback being received from Hindi readers the world over – Khabar PrabhatThe Sahitya Varshiki of Janvikalp is a conversation with the realities of our times – India Today
