1 The Cosmic and Acosmic : A Redefinition of Being and Time in Patrick White’s Voss Krishna Barua , 2010 single work criticism
— Appears in: The Indian Review of World Literature in English , July vol. 6 no. 2 2010; This paper explores 'the intuitive and the rational towards the realization of a transcendent reality in Patrick White's Voss (1957), and the arrangement and juxtaposition of images and metaphors found in Vedic and Upanishadic literature to determine "the core of reality" in this highly mystical and ambiguous novel.' It attempts to 'bring in through this study the potentialities and complexities of the Vedic split of the "cosmic and acosmic" of Being and Time as projected across two different transcultural spaces, the Australian and the Indian' and considers 'if this split of time-consciousness signify a timeless reality or a unifying force'. (p. 1)
1 The Core of Reality : 'Mandala' as a Leitmotif in Patrick White's Fiction Krishna Barua , 2008 single work criticism
— Appears in: Fact and Fiction : Readings in Australian Literature 2008; (p. 57-68) Australia and India : Convergences and Divergences 2010; (p. 124-136) Barua contends that all of White's novels 'encompass the fluctuating moments of experience in relation to man and men, environment and nature. The paradigm changes are but the offshoots of the "self," changeable, moment by moment, situation by situation, relationship to relationship, and inevitably leading to the search for the centre, the mandalic whole'.
