Yes, 'mess' culture was classic after the 2nd world war... all the way upto perhaps the 80s and beyond. It is still present today, although in slidhtly different form. Major part of the Bengali Neo-renaissance is stemmed from there. Doc here says it is popular in BD as well present day.
History was indeed written by the victors, but now it is changing. There were highly talented authors in Bengali literature who went unpublished to barely published. Very few people here even remember Manik Bondhopadhyay or Debesh Roy, who were published, but largely forgotten. But today anyone can self-publish. Folks like Andy Weir was self-published, but now a celebrity. So times are different, and we can re-write history of the underdogs if we choose to. We have the power and the ability to do that now.
Thanks for stopping by. Hive blockchain is very dear to me, and I will protect it at all cost.
i'm with you brother (well - all cost might need defining more - but i get the spirit)
Sure! The spirit matters in my mind.
I think we are doing rather good as an ecosystem lately. Just need to keep at it. Thanks for stopping by.
