Prem Chand

Two trends seem to be dominant in Prem Chand criticism. On one hand are the writers of dissertations, out to prove their theses; on the other are the progressive critics in the grip of the ruling orthodoxy of the last sixty years. Prof. Sharma with his keen interest in the history of ideas, unravels the different strands in Prem Chand's thought. He demonstrates that while Prem Chand was deeply concerned with social and political problems, equally deep was his concern with moral and spiritual issues. With his wide acquaintance with the western critical tradition, Pro. Sharma traces the evolution of Prem Chand's art, basing his discussion on a close analysis of the novels and short stories.
