3rd World Telugu Writers’ Conference
An Introduction to the Aim and Purpose of the Conference
It gives us a great
pleasure to take an opportunity to invite all the lovers and admirers of Telugu
Language and Culture to the 3rd World Telugu Writers’ Conference on the
occasion of the celebrations of the “The Year of Flourish of Telugu Language
and Culture.”
On 20th, 21st and 22nd
(Friday, Saturday and Sunday) of September 2013, the Conference is going to be
held in Sri Seshasai Kalyana Mandapam, M.G. Road, Vijayawada.
The 1st World Telugu
Writers’ Conference held in September,2007 under the auspices of the Krishna
District Writers’ Association initiated a powerful and successful Telugu
Language Movement and inspired Telugu people, thus opening a new chapter in the
history of the Telugu Language.
Keeping in view of the
celebration of DIAMOND JUBILEE of the Independence of India, we released a book
of Research Articles, “Vajrabharathi” in the conference which was well
appreciated by literary critics.
In the month of August
2011, the Krishna District Writers’ association organized the 2nd World Telugu
Writers’ Conference. A well designed programme for making Telugu a World
Language took its formal shape
in
the conference. The State Government , in that conference, announced its
Membership in Uni-Code Consortium and Release of New Fonts and thereby
expressed its willingness to developTelugu language in accordance with Modern
Technical Knowledge.On this occasion the installation of the statue of “Telugu
Talli” (Mother Telugu) and publication of a book of Research “Telugu Punnami”
(Telugu in Full Moon) were also taken place
WORLD
TELUGU WRITERS’ ASSOCIATION:
In the 2nd World Telugu
Writers’ Conference, it was felt that there is an absolute necessity of forming
an International platform for the world wide Telugu Writers, Linguists,
Historians and Reasearch fellows and the responsibility of its foundation was
entrusted to Sri Mandali Budha Prasad and the Krishna District Writers’
Association.Thus, the Founder Executive Committe has been established for
“World Telugu Writers Association”
Now the World Telugu
Writers’ association is organizing 3rd World TeluguWriters’ Conference with the
courtesy of the Cultural Wing of Government of Andhra Pradesh and with the cooperation
of the Krshna District Writers’ Association.
In order to bring a
blossom in Telugu Language and Culture among the young generation, the 3rd World
Telugu Writers Conference is providing a major role to young writers. As
gradual deterioration is taking place in the role played by youth in the fields
of Literature, Culture and Social activity, it is high time that, as a social responsibility,
the light is focused on youth.
After globalization, in
the past three decades,during which the society has entered the electronic age,
the impact of foreign culture, Marketing financial systems, Free Market,
Computer jobs have made the lives of the youth fast-going.
In any country, social
change is a natural phenomenon. when the entire world can be seen in our hand,
there is no use in making irrational arguments. But whenever the language and
the Culture are endangered, the society gets ready to protect them. “The Jaanu Telugu
Movement” started by poets like Somanatha fulfilled its responsibility. The
Bhakti Movement , brought by poets like Annamayya and the Spoken Language
Movement brought by Veeresalingam, Gurajada, Gidugu helped in bringing social awareness
among Telugu people. The present Telugu Languge Movement with the aim of making
Telugu as household language,school language and language of Administration and
bringing the ancient grandeur of telugu and of making Telugu a World Language.
World Telugu Writers’ Conference stand as protecting
shield
for Telugu Language and Culture.
