The two perspectives of Zaarmilla and Sheermaal exclude one another’s rendering. To unpack this contradictory narrative position, the concept of acculturation and cultural stress, especially formulated by John W. Berry is taken in interlocution. By rendering these two sorts of antithetical narratives juxtaposed together confirms the dynamics of ambivalence which does not regard Saidaian notion of Orientalism intact.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Contemporary Research: An Interdisciplinary Academic Journal}, author={Paudel, Prakash}, year={2021}, month={Oct.}, pages={113–123} }
