Dharwad: Stage is about for the three-day literary fest 'Dharwad Sahitya Sambhrama-2018' to be held on the Golden Jubilee Auditorium of Karnatak University in Dharwad from Friday.
Buoyed by means of the good fortune of five literary festivals, the organizers of Dharwad Sahitya Sambhrama have made elaborate preparations to make sure that the 6th version can also be a success.
Dharwad Sahitya Sambhrama Trust president Giraddi Govindraj stated the litfest objectives at offering a platform for discussing more than a few aspects of literature. Besides discussing literature, the 'Sambhrama' will also supply a forum for expression of different perspectives and reviews on relevant fresh problems in a wholesome method.
"The Dharwad Sahitya Samhrama Trust does not subscribe to any particular ideology or ism. It will play the role of a facilitator for the people with different views and opinions to sit together and present their views. It is for the audience to take a final call. Hope the Sahitya Sambhrama will be a useful platform for representatives of different ideologies to come face to face and speak out. This is necessary at a time when it has become impossible for the people with different views to meet and talk with extremism playing dominant role" Giraddi stated.
The festival will provide a chance for the literature enthusiasts to see and interact with famend writers and artists and change the perspectives on large ranging topics.
This year there might be classes on 'Are we developing new knowledge,' 'Kannada theatre: Tradition, transformation and future', 'Improvement of Kannada script,' 'Cultural policy of Karnataka executive', 'Literature of Adilshahi era', 'Relationship between poetry and music' and 'Environment and sustained development' amongst others.
The consultation on Adilshahi era was the dream of slain pupil M M Kalburgi who had felt that not much were written in Kannada in regards to the Adilshahi and his rule in Vijaypura. Kalburgi wanted extra light to be thrown on Adilshahi's regime. Scholar Krishna Kolhar Kulkarni and Maulana Mehboob Rehman Madani will talk on the consultation while Girish Karnad would be the moderator.
Since the year is being observed as poet Gopalkrishna Adiga's birth centenary year, leading writers and artists will recite Adiga's poems and Jayanti Kaikini will deliver a special lecture on Adiga. In all there might be 15 classes with the exception of the inaugural and concluding classes.
