हिंदी नवजागरण और राष्ट्रीय चेतना में बालमुकुन्द गुप्त का योगदान
Abstract
वर्तमान समाज साहित्यकार की चेतना और रचना को बहुत प्रभावित करता है, इसलिए एक साहित्यकार को अपने समय में रहना संभव नहीं होता। बाबू बालमुकुन्द गुप्त का जन्म राष्ट्रीय भावना और भारतीय समाज की समझ से हुआ था। इन्होंने देश, उसके लोगों, उसके सुख-दुःख और समस्याओं को समझा। गुप्त जी स्वाभिमानी और देशप्रेमी पत्रकार हैं। उपनिवेशवादी शासन-व्यवस्था में होने वाले शोषण और पक्षपात के खिलाफ लिखते रहे और लोगों को जागरूक करते रहे। अंग्रेजी शिक्षा प्रणाली की कमजोरियों को दिखाने का प्रयास किया। इनकी भाषा मुख्यतः व्यंग्य है।

फणीश्वरनाथ रेणु: सिनेमाई छवियों का कृति के भीतर समावेश
Abstract
कोई भी पाठक रेणु की रचनाओं में उपस्थित विवरणों को देख-पढ़कर 'रेणु संसार' में प्रवेश करता है। रेणु की रचनाओं में आम जीवन का चित्रण ऐसा है कि मानो पाठक पूर्णिया जैसे चित्रों को कागज पर देखते हुए एक चरित्र बनकर वहीं खड़ा है। रेणु की रचनाओं का पर्दे पर फिल्मीकरण असफल रहा है, लेकिन यह सिर्फ सिनेमा, निर्देशकों और दर्शकों की सीमा नहीं है, बल्कि रेणु की भी है। फिल्म रूपान्तरण के लिए आवश्यक सभी तत्व रेणु साहित्य में उपलब्ध हैं। रेणु ने साहित्य में चित्रों की भाषा को बारीकी से समझा और उकेरा है।

Assessing the Impact of Microfinance and Self-Help Groups on Livelihood Diversification in Northern Part of West Bengal
Abstract
This study examines how microfinance and Self-Help Groups (SHGs) support rural households in diversifying their livelihood. We focused our research on the Darjeeling, Jalpaiguri, and Cooch Behar districts of West Bengal, India and gathered data from 200 households. Our analysis assessed the extent to which these households diversified their income sources and examined whether microfinance access and SHG membership played a role in shaping diversification strategies. Using multiple regression analysis, we find that both microfinance access and SHG membership significantly encourage livelihood diversification. Access to microfinance provides households with the financial boost they need to invest in new income-generating activities. Simultaneously, SHGs provide access to credit, facilitate knowledge sharing, and help members develop new skills, all of which are crucial to diversifying livelihoods. We also discovered that socioeconomic factors, such as education level and land ownership, significantly influence household diversification. These findings underscore the importance of microfinance and SHGs in helping rural communities diversify their livelihoods and become more resilient.

Tess of the D’Urbervilles: A Victim of Social Injustice and Male Dominance
Abstract
This paper analyses how Thomas Hardy's novel “Tess of the D'Urbervilles” portrays the struggles of women within the patriarchal society of Victorian England. It explores the themes of class and gender inequality, highlighting the limitations imposed upon women by societal norms and expectations. The narrative focuses on Tess Durbeyfield, a young woman who becomes a victim of both male dominance and the rigid social hierarchy of her time. Through close textual analysis and a feminist theoretical framework, the research examines how Tess’s interactions with male characters like Alec d'Urberville and Angel Clare exemplify the oppressive structures that define her relationships and ultimately shape her tragic fate. The study also considers the interplay of chance and circumstances in influencing Tess's trajectory, showcasing how her purity and resilience are challenged by the harsh realities of Victorian morality and societal prejudices. The paper argues that Tess's journey serves as a powerful critique of the injustices prevalent in Victorian society, particularly the sexual double standards and the devaluation of women based on their social status and perceived purity. By examining the novel through these lenses, this research offers a deeper understanding of Hardy's engagement with socio-political issues and his profound commentary on women's enduring struggle for recognition, autonomy, and justice.
Keywords: Struggle, women, rigid, harsh, Circumstances, relationship etc.
