Rewriting the Self, Reframing the Society: A Study of Manoranjan Byapari’s Interrogating My Chandal Life Beyond Traditional Autobiography

Author(s) Mr. Sishupal Mahato
Country India
Abstract This paper will discuss Interrogating My Chandal Life by Manoranjan Byapari as a very attractive genre of writing, which breaks certain conventions of autobiographical writing. The conventional autobiographies are, predominantly, about personal development, personal accomplishments, success or reflection. Dalit autobiographies, on the other side serve as a collective protest and revelation of the systematic oppression based on caste. The personal story that Byapari tells is not a story concerning any one individual but rather a representation of his whole community who were displaced and marginalized in their lives through the course of raw and lived experience. Byapari additionally asserts that such life experiences or lived moments cannot receive adequate space in the mainstream literature. His story is no longer a story about his personal but a story about social and political facts of caste. In addition to this, turning the autobiography not only into an autobiography but also a social protest. According to the argument in this paper that identifies the select autobiography as a part of a much larger scheme of Dalit writing, this type of autobiography employs personal experience as a vehicle to formulate history anew, to invert the official histories and institute a new literary and political identity.
Keywords Caste, identity, narrative, resistance, Bengali Dalit etc.
