Today (8 march 2013) is the International women’s day. When I looked up, I find that this day is being celebrated as International women’s day since 1977 when the United Nations General Assembly invited member states to proclaim March 8 as the UN Day for women’s rights and world peace.

While surfing on the internet last night, I came across a reference to the book ‘The Tenth Rasa : An Anthology of Indian Nonsense’ (2007). The title of the book evoked interest in me but there was no way to know in what context the word ‘nonsense’ was used. I could not locate an E-version or abridged version of this book on the internet but found a review of this book. The book is all about Indian nonsensel literature – prose, poetry, jingles which has a rich history in oral and folk forms. Most of them have been passed on to the next generation by words of mouth. It is a nonsense literature from the point of view of laureates belonging to the elite society for whom the literature has to be meaningful. In that way, the term ‘nonsense’ seems to have been used for meaningless literature. According to the authors of this book, nonsense literature is the base for sensible literature as the former is intuitive and flows quite naturally like the relationship between mother and child.
