Book excerpt: Conventional Studies Viewed The Tribal And The Folkculture On The Basis Of Dichotomous Constructions Of Human Society Such As Rural Or Urban, Peasant Or Elite, Tribal Or Non-Tribal, Literate Or Illiterate, Sophisticated Or Unsophisticated And The Like. Such Approach Continues To Influence The Whole Genre Of Writings On Tribal And Folklore Studies Also.

Download or read book Cultural Labour written by Brahma Prakash and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-06-28 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Folk performances reflect the life-worlds of a vast section of subaltern communities in India. What is the philosophy that drives these performances, the vision that enables as well as enslaves these communities to present what they feel, think, imagine, and want to see? Can such performances challenge social hierarchies and ensure justice in a caste-ridden society? In Cultural Labour, the author studies bhuiyan puja (land worship), bidesia (theatre of migrant labourers), Reshma-Chuharmal (Dalit ballads), dugola (singing duels) from Bihar, and the songs and performances of Gaddar, who was associated with Jana Natya Mandali, Telangana: he examines various ways in which meanings and behaviour are engendered in communities through rituals, theatre, and enactments. Focusing on various motifs of landscape, materiality, and performance, the author looks at the relationship between culture and labour in its immediate contexts. Based on an extensive ethnography and the author’s own life experience as a member of such a community, the book offers a new conceptual framework to understand the politics and aesthetics of folk performance in the light of contemporary theories of theatre and performance studies.

Download or read book Sacred Groves written by Dr. Anjum Azaz and published by Sankalp Publication. This book was released on with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: : Sacred groves are untouched plots of land that are secluded by the people inhabiting near them, primarily for religious purposes. The popular conception of a grove is a collection of exceptionally well-formed trees set in a place of outstanding natural beauty. These patches of land can be of varying sizes and shapes. It is believed that arborolatry is one of the earliest forms of worship in this world. It occupies an important place in folklore. There are innumerable examples of oral literature encircling around trees. Examples of reverence of trees in Indian mythology are multiple. We know about many proverbs and riddles that discuss the dreadful side of forests. In many of the Hindu rituals, we find marriage songs completely dedicated to herbs such as tulasi, etc. Tree worship also constitutes a major portion of the social folk customs of the people. By studying the role trees and plants play in a particular society, their significance is known. In addition, information about the socio-cultural and religion lives of the people of that particular community can also be studied.

Book Synopsis 'Yogini' in South Asia by : István Keul
Download or read book 'Yogini' in South Asia written by István Keul and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-07-18 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In different stages in the history of South Asian religions, the term yoginī has been used in various contexts to designate various things: a female adept of yoga, a female tantric practitioner, a sorceress, a woman dedicated to a deity, or a certain category of female deities. This book brings together recent interdisciplinary perspectives on the medieval South Asian cults of the Yoginis, such as textual-philological, historical, art historical, indological, anthropological, ritual and terminological. The book discusses the medieval yoginī cult, as illustrated in early Śaiva tantric texts, and their representations in South Asian temple iconography. It looks at the roles and hypostases of yoginīs in contemporary religious traditions, as well as the transformations of yoginī-related ritual practices. In addition, this book systematizes the multiple meanings, and proposes definitions of the concept and models for integrating the semantic fields of ‘yoginī.’ Highlighting the importance of research from complementary disciplines for the exploration of complex themes in South Asian studies, this book is of interest to scholars of South Asian Studies and Religious Studies.

Book excerpt: Chasing a Dream is a travelogue with a difference. It tells of the author's experiences and impressions when he travelled to the tribal areas of central and south eastern India in the 1970s and 80s. Here he encountered tribal gods and goddesses like Anga Pen, Son Kuar, Kandakankalin, Telgin Mata and Siraha or medicine-men Bhaku Netam. He trekked more than once accompanied by just one or two local acquaintances into areas very far from common knowledge or public gaze, into the land of the Muria and Maria and the Hill Saora, with their unique beliefs and cultures. His inspiration being the writings of Dr. Verrier Elwin, the noted anthropologist, these accounts are interwoven with what Dr. Elwin had himself written of about thirty years before these travels were made. It also goes on to give glimpses of the life that Elwin spent in these areas in the 1940s. It provides the reader with rare insights into the different reality of tribal life in India. Born in Calcutta in 1944, Prosenjit Das Gupta completed his education from St. Xavier's Collegiate School and Presidency College, Calcutta. He joined a commercial organization in 1966 and worked there, till his retirement a few years ago. His interest in wildlife and tribal and folk culture developed in his college days. He has travelled extensively, to tribal areas of central India as well as to national parks and sanctuaries. He has written a number of articles on wildlife and tribal culture and has authored several books on Calcutta, wildlife, common forest trees, his travels to tribal India, and economic change in India. He has also written a biography of Jim Corbett. His other interests include travelling, photography, reading and writing.
