Dalit Aesthetics in Bengal: The Dramatic World of Raju Das offers a powerful and original exploration of theatre as a site of resistance, memory, and lived experience. Situating Raju Das's plays within the socio-historical realities of caste, class, and marginality in Bengal, this book foregrounds Dalit aesthetics not merely as an artistic mode but as a radical political and ethical practice. Through close readings of key plays, performance strategies, and dramaturgical choices, the book examines how minimalism, realism, the disciplined use of the body, and raw emotional intensity shape Raju Das's dramatic language. It reveals how silence, space, gesture, and everyday speech become tools to expose humiliation, violence, and survival in Dalit lives, challenging dominant upper-caste theatrical traditions and canonical aesthetics. Bringing together performance studies, cultural history, and Dalit thought, this study maps the emergence of a distinct Dalit theatrical vision in Bengal-one rooted in collective memory, oral traditions, and resistance to social erasure. Essential reading for scholars and students of theatre studies, Dalit studies, cultural studies, and South Asian literature, this volume positions Raju Das as a crucial voice in contemporary Indian theatre and affirms Dalit aesthetics as a transformative force in reimagining both art and society.
