NEED OF IN-SERVICE TRAININGS FOR ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEACHERS

Meenakshi Bordia

Abstract :

 This paper examines Derek Walcott’s Dream on Monkey Mountain and Bole Butake’sFamily Saga as counter narratives of the mega narratives of Western imperialism. The central axis of these counter narratives is the identity question in a nation where some citizens appear to have no dignity, self-worth or identity. This subaltern class in the two plays demonstrates the urgent need as postcolonials to discover who they are by reclaiming their roots through memory or history.
