| Article Name : | | | NATIONAL CONSCIOUSNESS IN KAMALA MARKANDAYA'S THE GOLDEN HONEYCOMB | | Author Name : | | | SEEMA | | Publisher : | | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | | Article Series No. : | | | ROR-317 | | Article : | |  | Author Profile | | Abstract : | | | The present paper seeks to examine the various manifestations of the upsurging national consciousness among Indian masses in Kamala Markandaya's The Golden Honeycomb. In the novel, Rabi, the illegitimate son of a native kings, dedicates himself to the national cause in the declining years of colonialism, rejecting the comforts and privileges of royal life. He represents the Indian nationalists who united people against the colonial forces. His fight is not against an individual, but against the disvalues and inadequacies of the system that denies an individual right to live a meaningful life. Through both actions and emotions he inspires the masses to gain freedom from the lifedenying system and eventually succeeds in his mission. It is a collective and conscientious effort to free the masses from exploitation, poverty, abjectness and subjugation. The way the novelist treats the theme suggests that the virtues of love and loyalty; service and sacrifice; commitment and conviction can go a long way in winning true and lasting freedom. | | Keywords : | | - povert
