Subaltern as we speak.. this odd theory has been introduced to me by Taite-a..And then Way back in November at IIT Guwahati i me't Prof. Gautam Badra who had in depth knowledge of Subaltern studies. We exchange a couple of discussion and to my surprise when he spoke all the other Professors bended on their knees to hear what he had said. Later on my interest with the subject grew more and more and i google out this video "The Trajectory of the Subaltern in My Work" by a Columbia University Professor Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak. She is one of the leading literary theorists and cultural critics, who had also mentioned Prof. Gautam in the video.(Bengalee ho hi an fing viau a ni, intellectual circle ah an bang ngailo!) This video is interesting and though provoking...Enjoy the video as much as i do :-)
