Love Marriage In The Mango Season

1754 Words8 Pages

The Mango season is a beautiful and attractive novel that contains gemlike words that moves as fast as lightning when we start to read who is the famous and popular author of serving crazy with curry Amulya Malladi. I am very impressed and proud to be a Telugu myself. This whole journey of Mango Season had been really wonderful and amazing. I have never thought that there would be a book on Telugu cultures and we would be analyzing the story for our literature studies. But at the other end of the string, even though I am an Indian, I had never heard about all the cultures and traditions of my own culture and this is a blinding flash for me to turn over a new leaf and start gaining truth and myth about cultures, and why do we practice such cultures in our Telugu community. Coming back to the mango season, I had diagnosed three main themes which are really closed to my heart.
One of the main theme I would like to emphasize in this novel is arranged marriage versus love marriage. This had always been an issue debated in every Indian family when it comes to marriage. The daughter or son love someone else but were asked to marry the person chosen by their parents. This theme can clearly been seen in this novel as this whole story reflects on Priya who is facing a dispute in choosing an arranged or love marriage. Arranged marriage mirrors the respect that younger generations give respect to their parents and elders.Love marriage depicts how future generations had freedom to

  • Chittra Banerjee Divakaruni Clothes Analysis

    1086 Words  | 5 Pages

    Arranged marriage is a controversial practice in many cultures around the world. However, studies have found that roughly 85 percent of Indians prefer to engage in this tradition, and have a higher rate of marrital success than a marriage based on personal choice. (Dholakia, 4) Yet, even considering these statistics, it remains a concept that is met with dissapproval, thought to be archaic and demeaning to those involved. Chittra Banerjee Divakaruni’s short story Clothes depicts a young woman transition, from being obliged to follow this cultural norm, and the shifts in her mentality throughout this process. It is not unreasonable for the reader to view the protagonist, Sumita, to be a victim of this presumably inhumane practice.

    According to this theory, nature of love is changing fundamentally and it can create either opportunities for democracy or chaos in life (Beck & Beck- Gernsheim, 1995). Love, family and personal freedom are three key elements in this theory. This theory states that the guidelines, rules and traditions which used to rule personal relationships have changed. “Individuals are now confronted with an endless series of choices as part of constructing, adjusting, improving or dissolving the unions they form with others” (Giddens, 2006). For instance, marriage nowadays depends on the willingness of the couples rather than for economic purposes or the urge to form family.
