    Mission Impossible - Surveying Indian Languages And Dialects

     The Intersection Season 2, Episode 1
    Aug 19 2019

    Mission Impossible: Surveying Indian Languages And Dialects-

    It took George A. Grierson about 30 years to finish his masterpiece - the Linguistic Survey of India, a monumental publication that documented 179 languages and 544 dialects across the extensive and diverse borders of India. Today these historic archives are available at the click of a mouse, but this compilation - of fables, songs, stories and epic poetry became a cornerstone of Indian language studies. Almost 100 years later, this epic work had a companion, when eminent Indian linguist Ganesh Devy’s People’s Survey of India was published. He identified 780 languages: some dead some in the process of dying some non-verbal and some that reflect the ones that Grierson recorded.

  • Vanishing Voices: What We Lose When We Lose A Language

    Vanishing Voices: What We Lose When We Lose A Language

     The Intersection Season 2, Episode 2
    Aug 19 2019
    The rich linguistic diversity of India is under threat, over 300 languages spoken by communities in geographically isolated areas have gone extinct and over a 100 more are endangered. As we move towards homogeneity in the name of progress, several indigenous languages across India are merging with more dominant ones. Meet V K Neelarao who concerned by the intrusion of Tamil in his original Saurashtrian language, made a film called ‘Hedde Jamoi’ to raise awareness for this dying language. Also on this episode, we talk to Dr. Arup Kumar Nath at Tezpur University’s Centre for Endangered Languages about how researchers and students are documenting and preserving disappearing languages and protecting a vital link with our past.

    How We Are Failing To Respond To Climate Change

     The Intersection Season 2, Episode 3
    Aug 19 2019
    Are the floods in Mumbai, Chennai, Assam and other parts of India related to the wildfires in North America? In his new book The Great Derangement, Amitav Ghosh argues that these calamities are a direct outcome of climate change and our response to this has been inadequate. He also suggests that the Indian media is conveniently ignoring these very serious events because it is more fixated with Bollywood, Cricket and Politics (as a circus). Music credit: Josh Woodward
