This chapter highlights the importance of literature in figurately exploring issues related to ageing, elderly abuse, and coping mechanisms. The apparatus that emerges to survive the twilight years has been explored in world literature, Indian Writing in English, and in certain sections of regional language literature within India. It primarily focuses on “Dak Munsi” by Fakir Mohan Senapati, the Odia iconoclast, in an attempt to drive home the point that the study of gerontology can gain deep insights by looking at literature produced in different languages from all over the world.

摘要

This chapter highlights the importance of literature in figurately exploring issues related to ageing, elderly abuse, and coping mechanisms. The apparatus that emerges to survive the twilight years has been explored in world literature, Indian Writing in English, and in certain sections of regional language literature within India. It primarily focuses on “Dak Munsi” by Fakir Mohan Senapati, the Odia iconoclast, in an attempt to drive home the point that the study of gerontology can gain deep insights by looking at literature produced in different languages from all over the world.
