The Ravenshavian

The Ravenshavian started publication around 1917 as a vehicle for the reports on the activities at the College as well as for creative writings of the students and faculty. It also carried news of and views on the contemporary events relating to education and to those affecting the functioning of the College. The early issues offer important information on the educational matters in the state of Orissa and the country. It also records the performance of its students and, in many cases, the achievements of its alumni who had gone on to occupy important positions in different fields around the country. It featured writings in different languages being taught in the College and reports of the student bodies both at the College and Department level.

Although an important publication, copies of it are hard to find. The early issues present another difficulty as to the dates of publication. There are issues with different numbers but same date and vice-versa. This is compunded by obliteration/overwriting of the issue numbers and dates on some issues on the Ravenshaw University website. The vintage of the ‘corrections’ is not known. Deduced ‘correct’ dates have been indicated within [] where appropriate. Some issues have pages/covers missing. Still these are given here because of their obvious value. But the user must be aware of these problems.

The issues presented here in digital form have been accessed from the Kedarnath Gabeshana Parishad Library, Ravenshaw University website (http://ravenshawuniversity.ac.in/Magazine.php – where the available issues are in very poor form), Prof. Jnanee Debasis Misra of the Ravenshaw University, Odia Faculty.
