MARGINALIZATION AND SURVIVAL: A MARXIST STUDY ON TRASI’S THE COLOUR OF OUR SKY

Abstract

This study shows the enduring impact of Marxism on society through an analysis of the themes of resilience, survival, and sacrifice found in Trasi's novel The Colour of our Sky. Specifically, this study explores the relationship between these themes and Marxist history, focusing on how Tara and Mukta navigate their respective challenges while highlighting the impact of cultural and psychological factors on their lives. The experiences of Tara and Mukta serve as an example of the struggles faced by marginalized people, reflecting larger social and economic inequalities. By examining these themes, the study illuminates how historical Marxist concepts of class struggle and social justice still hold relevance in modern times. This research is important because it sheds light on how Marxist ideas continue to influence modern society and helps us comprehend how historical circumstances influence both individual lives and societal systems. The study emphasizes the significance of social and cultural influences on human development and survival by providing a greater understanding of people's coping mechanisms and the sacrifices they make through the lens of Tara and Mukta's journey. All things considered, this investigation makes it clearer how applicable Marxism is to the analysis and resolution of contemporary societal problems.
