Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indian Theatre expands the boundaries of what is usually regarded as theatre in order to explore the multiple dimensions of theatrical performance in India. From rural festivals to contemporary urban theatre, from dramatic rituals and devotional performances to dance-dramas and classical Sanskrit plays, this volume is a vivid introduction to the colourful and often surprising world of Indian performance. Besides mapping the vast range of performance traditions, the volume provides in-depth treatment of representative genres, including well-known forms such as Kathakali and ram lila and little-knowa performances such as tamasha. Each of these chapters explains the historical background of the theatre form under consideration and interprets its dramatic literature, probes its ritual or religious significance, and, where relevant, explores its social and political implications. Moreover, each chapter, except for those on the origins of Indian theatre, concludes with performance notes describing the actual experience of seeing a live performance in its original context. Based on extensive fieldwork, Indian Theatre is the first comprehensive account of the subject to be written by Western specialists and addressed to the needs of readers in the West. It will be a valuable resource for all students of Indian culture and a standard work in the history of theatre and performance for years to come.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2017 in the subject Cultural Studies - Miscellaneous, University of Burdwan (Burdwan University), course: M.A., language: English, abstract: The traditional Indian culture floating down from the classical era of The Ramayana and The Mahabharata, has now introduced itself to the doorway of the world, for its abundant influx into the mansion of the ‘cocktail of cultures’, by pervading its aroma in every nook and cranny of the world, resulting in the unveiling of the so far clouded folk histories. Multiplicity of races and vertical societal structure aided India to breed folk dances like Bihu, bhangra karkattam and many others, and among them, chhau, though eclipsed upon the dusty blanket of history till the 1970s, is in the process to achieve its deserving glory. “Chhau”, the term which fastens the people of Purulia into a single thread, sets the wheels of the district into motion for a journey from mossy path to street. Though done with minimum steps or movements, the dance makes maximum impact on people, especially on those who were alienated from it so far. With its first ascendance in 1972 when a “chhau” party from Purulia district under the guidance of Gambhir Singh Mura took a journey abroad, “chhau” has now made its place in the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage List. This article attempts to excavate the lyrical evolution of chhau, enkindling its path from “chhau nritya” to “chhau nrityanatya”. The incessant venture to come out off its previous slough of Jhumur, upon the ground of which the lyrics of chhau were basically edified, results in the derivation of other folk and pop music. The journey henceforth germinates a question, whether this hybridism in the lyrics of chhau is a pollution or a solution, within the periphery of which my term paper revolves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Citizens Manifesto the Book The recent books published by the administrators, leaders and authors on the subjects that concern our country generally focus on a few burning issues or those which are popular for the time being. The problem with this specialised approach is that issues get constrained by the coverage scope of the book and the book fails to deal with the inter-related impact of issues. In contrast, the treatment of the majority of issues in the pages of one book, gives corrective action a reasonable chance. The book offers a coherent list of about two hundred such issues and complementing suggestions for shaking up our citizens from the materialistic slumber that they are currently in to some sort of awakening. Even if these ideas are simply kept at the back of mind while in the day to day living or at work place, the chances that we would be moving in the right direction are real. The complete list of these ideas is summarised in the last chapter The Manifesto. Relevance It is a simple book, not really recommended for reading by the historians, economists, sociologist or the Indian Administrative Services (I*S) officers who need a much heavier dose to satisfy their intellect ; in fact it should be banned for them. This book deals with ideas, emotions, and feelings and not with statistics, reports, tables, numbers or references and quotations. Those in the seats of power or in administration of the country generally are guided by their perception of the society by looking at it from their ivory towers. Reading this book from the viewpoint of a common citizen gives them the advantage of being closer to reality as seen by an average citizen. Readers For the citizens of India, for creating a big picture in mind of how the government is functioning, what are their constraints and how public can help. For the governance of India including politicians, for understanding the need for going into grass root level issues of the nation For the bright students, it provides material for improving grading and for the students in general it provides important material in simple and interesting form For the citizens of other developing countries, what they can learn from the Indian experience; countries like Pakistan, Eastern Europe, South East Asia and Latin American countries. For Western Countries to help them do business with India after making better informed decisions for a win-win situation. We expect a very large number of readers in England, South Africa, Canada and USA. Even from the view point of a traveller to India or school students going in for interviews this book provides adequate information as well answers to discussion topics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dance occupies a prestigious place in Indian performing arts, yet it curiously, to a large extent, has remained outside the arena of academic discourse. This book documents and celebrates the emergence of contemporary dance practice in India. Incorporating a multidisciplinary approach, it includes contributions from scholars, writers and commentators as well as short essays and interviews with Indian artists and performers; the latter add personal perspectives and insights to the broad themes discussed. Young Indian dance artists are courageously charting out new trajectories in dance, diverging from the time-worn paths of tradition. The classical forms of Bharatnatyam, Kathak, Odissi and Manipuri, to name a few, are rich resources for choreographers exploring contemporary dance. This volume speaks about their struggles of working within and outside tradition as they grapple with national and international audience expectations as well as their own values and sense of identity. The artists represented here continue to question the uneasy relationship that exists between the insular world of dance and outside reality. Simultaneously, they are actively creating new dance languages that are both articulate in a performative context and demand examination by researchers and critics.
