Abstract
The canvas of Children’s Literature presents strokes of vibrant motifs coupled with creativity and fantasy. The gripping and bewildering magnum opus of Salman Rushdie, Haroun and the Sea of Stories, heralds the political scenario of India. The novel is a fitting reply to Rushdie’s fatwa and censorship of Satanic Verses. Behind a palliative and hilarious account of fantasy fiction, Rushdie renders a subtle portrayal of sublime aspects such as conflict, violence and peace. The paper concentrations on reinstating Johan Galtung’s Theory of Peace and Herbert C. Kelman’s Theory of Conflict, evident in the Rushdie’s Haroun and the Sea of Stories. Reinforcing and reviewing the contradictory and distinct characteristics of Gup and Chup cities are one of the salient portions of paper. Concepts such as Group theory, physical and psychological violence embedded in the novel are analyzed and explored. The paper also throws light upon factors that restore peace and elements that pave way for conflict resolution.
