Abstract:
The present article quite emphatically maps out the discourse between culture and nature implying a penetrating view of cruel and inhuman interference of human being for their commercial profit into the world of nature and similarly of disastrous and revengeful approach of nature to the human world. In The Glass Palace Ghosh projects the despotic practices of colonizers over the colonised land, people and their culture through the process of commercialization and commodification of human and natural resources. Culture and nature are simultaneously are exploited by the westerners supported by the natives. By portraying such deranged and awful condition of the world, Ghosh has channelized an ecological concern to the readers, intellectual scholars and thinkers to make them aware about the ecocidal exploitation and to bring back the ecological balance with cultural codification of human world.
