Ind igenous literature has played a significant role as a powerful tool for cu ltural expression\, identity formation\, and promotion of intercultural di alogue. However\, the ingenious portrayal of characters in various literar y genres gives a varied picture of society. One strategic aspect of ethnic ity in tribal literature is portraying cultural practices\, customs\, and traditions specific to a particular\nethnic group. The unmistakable depic tion of ethnic and linguistic dimensions in literature gives rise to a sen se of assertion. Various indigenous ethnic groups aspire to live in their world with pride and dignity. The literary works provide a platform to cel ebrate the richness and diversity of indigenous cultures\, fostering a sen se of pride and identity within the community.\nHowever\, Indigenous peopl e try to keep their cultural and personal identity intact and claim to be one\, unlike others. Identity in tribal literature is the central and recu rring motif that explores the complex interplay between individual and col lective identities within indigenous communities. Tribal literature explor es the multifaceted aspects of identity\, including cultural\, ethnic\, li nguistic\, and ancestral connections\, as well as the impact of external i nfluences such as colonization and globalization. During the colonial peri od\, when the nationalistic spirit was very high and individual identity w as trampled under feet\, some ethnic groups emerged to voice their dissent against all discrimination. Literature of the time echoes the quest of th e indigenous people for their identity. However\, during the nineteenth ce ntury\, which was marked by a growing tide of nationalism within Europe an d colonial\nexpansion overseas\, Indigenous literature emerged. The indige nous people's loyalty\, devotion and allegiance towards the nation are ref lected in the literature of the tribal. The ethnic groups have shown their obligation to the nation and society by sacrificing their lives. History is the mute witness of all of this sacrifice. Nationalism in tribal litera ture explores the intersection between tribal identities and the concept o f national belonging. Tribal literature delves into the complexities and t ensions surrounding the relationship between indigenous communities and th e nation-state where they live.\n\nNevertheless\, the Conference purports to explore how tribal literature represents and challenges the prevailing notions of ethnicity and nationality\, highlighting the diverse perspectiv es and experiences of different tribal groups. Additionally\, it aims to h ighlight the impact of colonization\, globalization\, and modernization on tribal identity as depicted in literary texts. It will further investigat e and hash out the role of indigenous language and writing in preserving c ultural heritage and fostering a sense of belonging. It will help the broa der understanding of the significance of tribal literature as a powerful t ool for artistic expression\, identity formation\, and the promotion of in tercultural dialogue. It will also bring forth the nationalistic feeling o f the tribal through the discussion of indigenous literary texts. Discussi ons on the aforesaid areas will undoubtedly enrich the participants to a\n great deal.\n\n[fusion_builder_column align_self="auto" content_layout="co lumn" align_content="flex-start"
