The Critical Exploration of Visibly Invisible Life of Nomads as Illustrated in Ekathari: An Autobiography of a Nomad by Kuppe Nagaraj
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The autobiography Ekathari: An Autobiography of a Nomad by Kuppe Nagaraja explores the challenges faced by Nomads, who have frequently been marginalized in geographic, economic, and political contexts within post-colonial states. The author, though a vivid narrative style describes that the nomadic lifestyle is often stigmatized as 'backward' in the pursuit of nation-building and economic development. A primary criticism against nomads revolves around their spatial mobility, which is perceived as an "unfettered physical environment across the landscape" during the activities of a mobile economy, leading to a lack of engagement in social relations within specific sites and communities.
