Country is geographical -Nation is Boundriless

Posted: Jul 1, 2008 Tue 03:05 pm     Views: 243    Interacts: 2



recently watched the more 'polished' bengali movie based on Jhumpas novel namesake .I think Monica Ali is just a propped writer in Britain with second grade citizenship and quiet possibly had ghost written to adress the terorism situation

Namesake just to point out about concept of geograhical COUNTRY and boundriless nation (may be languge Culture Religion whatever traversing across countries .

The name of Tabu characte is specificall chosen to mean ASIMA which means without boundries .While Kokata Bengal was Importnt to Ganguly Family the world wide universal Bengali Prople was also inseperable part
so she returns to kolkata for 6 months with need & intention to come back living in two countrie but same 'nation of Bengalis '.
It sounds like Nation And country semantic all over again
