Most of the literature available on Silence! The Court is in Session has discussed the gender issue from a feministic point of view. The play could also be studied from Marxist context. Not only female characters, but some male characters also have been marginalised. This is a gap I would like to fill in my research paper. The play is always seen with feministic perspectives. Investigating the characters from Marxist perspective is a novel way of probing into the play.
Miss. Leela Benare and Mrs. Kashikar are the two female characters. Balu Rokde and Raghu Samant are the male characters. All these four characters which can be said to be marginalised by the remaining characters. Power of money, power of position and the power of gender have played towards marginalising these four characters in the play. Even the marginalisation happens in class, literacy, professionalism and gender hierarchies. The play is written by a male playwright Vijay Tendulkar. He is so impartial and transparent that the prejudices of the male class are delicately presented. Even the male writers can have female sensibilities through which the intricate feelings, sufferings of women are presented in the play effectively. Silence! The Court is in the Session is relevant not only in the contemporary society. But also throughout the centuries we can locate these four characters.
The research is explorative and the characters may be compared with the characters in history and other similar texts. Homi- Baba’s theory of ‘othering’ can be applied to see the marginalising process in the play.
