This book was released on 1986-01-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The variegated religious and material culture of Thailand, Cambodia and adjacent countries in the Far East always evoke great interest in the minds of the students of human civilization. Since the time of the World War II (1939-1945), these countries have undergone great changes outwardly, i.e. in technology and economic conditions, in social customs and manners, and above all in political identity, but the spirit of the civilization of the region has remained almost unchanged till today. The present work which has no pretention to be a research work on the history and culture of the countries described herein, is a descriptive account with narratives of the author s travels chiefly in Thailand (Siam) and Cambodia along with some excursing in China and Burma, written in an inimitable language and style by an artist. The work covers the whole socio-cultural scene of the region, especially the wonderful example of its architecture and sculpture. The author presents most fascinating descriptions of some local ceremonies and festivals which he witnessed during his travels. The author, during his travels, drew numerous sketches, some of which have been included in the book. The sketches are masterpieces of art and are, at lest of equal importance with the text.

Download or read book Cambodge written by Penny Edwards and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2007-02-28 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This strikingly original study of Cambodian nationalism brings to life eight turbulent decades of cultural change and sheds new light on the colonial ancestry of Pol Pot’s murderous dystopia. Penny Edwards recreates the intellectual milieux and cultural traffic linking Europe and empire, interweaving analysis of key movements and ideas in the French Protectorate of Cambodge with contemporary developments in the Métropole. From the naturalist Henri Mouhot’s expedition to Angkor in 1860 to the nationalist Son Ngoc Thanh’s short-lived premiership in 1945, this history of ideas tracks the talented Cambodian and French men and women who shaped the contours of the modern Khmer nation. Their visions and ambitions played out within a shifting landscape of Angkorean temples, Parisian museums, Khmer printing presses, world’s fairs, Buddhist monasteries, and Cambodian youth hostels. This is cross-cultural history at its best. With its fresh take on the dynamics of colonialism and nationalism, Cambodge: The Cultivation of a Nation will become essential reading for scholars of history, politics, and society in Southeast Asia. Edwards’ nuanced analysis of Buddhism and her consideration of Angkor’s emergence as a national monument will be of particular interest to students of Asian and European religion, museology, heritage studies, and art history. As a highly readable guide to Cambodia’s recent past, it will also appeal to specialists in modern French history, cultural studies, and colonialism, as well as readers with a general interest in Cambodia.
