Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers various forms of the production of girmitiya culture and literature. One of the main objectives is to conceptualize the idea of girmitya, girmitology, and girmitiya literature, culture, history, and identity in both colonial and postcolonial contexts. This book aims to document the history, experiences, culture, assimilation, and identity of girmitiya community. It also critically analyses the articulation, projection, and production of their experiences of migration and being immigrant, their narratives, tradition, culture, religion, and memory. It also explores how this labour community formulated into a diaspora community and reconnected/created the home (land) and continues to do so in the wake of globalization and Information and Communication Technology (ICT). This book is an attempt to bring the intriguing neglected diverse historical heritage of colonial labour migration and their narratives into the mainstream scholarly debates and discussions in the humanities and the social sciences through the trans- and interdisciplinary perspectives. This book assesses the routes of migration of old diaspora, and it explains the nuances of cultural change among the generations. Although, they have migrated centuries back, absorbed and assimilated, and got citizenships of respective countries of destinations but still their longing for roots, culture, identities, “home”, and the constant struggle is to retain connections with their homeland depicted in their cultural practices, arts, music, songs, folklore and literary manifestations.

Book Jahrbuch f  r Kulinaristik  Bd  2  2018

Download or read book Jahrbuch f r Kulinaristik Bd 2 2018 written by Irmela Hijiya-Kirschnereit and published by Iudicium. This book was released on 2018-11-19 with total page 567 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wovon reden wir, wenn wir von "japanischer", "chinesischer" oder "koreanischer Küche" reden? Der Schwerpunkt "Der globalisierte Gaumen: Ostasiens Küchen auf Reisen" wurde so konzipiert, dass er die vielfältigen Dimensionen und Effekte der Globalisierung beispielhaft an den "Reisen" ostasiatischer Küchen zum Vorschein bringt. Die zwölf Beiträge beleuchten neben Kapital-, Personen und Warenverkehr vor allem historische und kulturelle Faktoren. Originalität, Tradition und Authentizität sind thematische Knotenpunkte. Die Vielfalt der Problemstellungen spiegelt sich in der Bandbreite der methodischen Zugänge und Perspektiven. Abgerundet wird dieser Teil durch zwei Dokumentationen, eine annotierte deutsch-englische Bibliographie zur kulinaristischen Forschung zu Ost- und Südostasien in den Sprachen Englisch, Deutsch, Japanisch, Koreanisch und Französisch und eine Liste akademischer Abschlussarbeiten aus dem deutschsprachigen Raum. Mit der "Kulinaristischen Ökologie" wird ein neuer Denkansatz aus dem Bereich der Lebens- und Umweltwissenschaften für das Feld der Kulinaristik vorgestellt. Dieser soll die ökologischen Konsequenzen und weltweiten Eingriffsfolgen aufzeigen, die dem Groß-Ökosystem 'Erde' und seinen großlandschaftlichen Subsystemen durch Nahrungsbeschaffung für eine ungebremst wachsende Weltbevölkerung erwachsen. Die Beiträge zum Thema "Das Gericht" loten mit den Mitteln von Wortsemantik und Etymologie, von praxisorientierter Begriffsgeschichte wie mit dem Versuch einer optisch unterfütterten Möbel- und Designgeschichte seine Vieldeutigkeit aus, abgerundet durch ein org.editeur.onix.v21.shorts.I@74cd72cf von italienischer Gegenwartsliteratur im Blick auf eine neue Essensmoral. Der Teil "Varia" besucht u.a. mit den Bahnhofsgaststätten einen für das kulturelle Gedächtnis Europas markanten transitorischen Ort.

Book Music as Intangible Cultural Heritage

Download or read book Music as Intangible Cultural Heritage written by Professor Keith Howard and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2012-10-28 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focussing on music traditions, these essays explore the policy, ideology and practice of preservation and promotion of East Asian intangible cultural heritage. For the first time, Japan, Korea, China and Taiwan - states that were amongst the first to establish legislation and systems for indigenous traditions - are considered together. Calls to preserve the intangible heritage have recently become louder, not least with increasing UNESCO attention. The imperative to preserve is, throughout the region, cast as a way to counter the perceived loss of cultural diversity caused by globalization, modernization, urbanization and the spread of the mass media. Four chapters - one each on China, Korea, Taiwan and Japan - incorporate a foundational overview of preservation policy and practice of musical intangible cultural heritage at the state level. These chapters are complemented by a set of chapters that explore how the practice of policy has impacted on specific musics, from Confucian ritual through Kam big song to the Okinawan sanshin. Each chapter is based on rich ethnographic data collected through extended fieldwork. The team of international contributors give both insider and outsider perspectives as they both account for, and critique, policy, ideology and practice in East Asian music as intangible cultural heritage.

  • Author : Helen Myers
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 1998
  • ISBN : 9780226554532
  • Pages : 546 pages

Download or read book Music of Hindu Trinidad written by Helen Myers and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like many other small towns in Trinidad, Felicity is populated almost entirely by East Indians. In their Caribbean exile, the residents of Felicity have created and recreated the music of their Hindu ancestors. Music of Hindu Trinidad is a fascinating account of the history and cultural significance of Hindu music that explores its symbolic, aesthetic, and psychological aspects while asking the larger question of how this music has contributed to the formation of identity in the midst of their great diaspora. Myers details the musical repertory of Felicity, which is based largely on north Indian genres including the traditional Bhojpuri folk songs and drumming styles brought by the first indentured laborers in 1845. In her engaging exploration of the fate of Indian classical music and new popular styles such as Hindi calypso, soca, and chutney, she even finds herself at the ancestral home of Trinidadian V. S. Naipaul in India. Copiously illustrated and accompanied by a compact disk, Music of Hindu Trinidad is a model ethnographic study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yesterday’s Melodies Todays Memories is a rare collection of profiles of all important music-makers of the Hindi Film Industry between 1931 and 1970. It not only gives a biographical background of each music artiste, but it goes further to interview many of the surviving giants and completes the task by listing some of the best songs with which that person is associated. Here are singers that include the whole gamut from KL Saigal to Asha Bhosle, lyricists that include Sahir and Gulzar, music composers from Naushad to RD Burman, artistes that were part-time singers and full time actors like Ashok Kumar, melody queens like Noor Jahan and Lata Mangeshkar, gentlemen lyricists like Prem Dhawan and gentlemen singers like Manna Dey, mischief-makers like Kishore Kumar and rebels without pause like OP Nayyar and Majrooh Sultanpuri. In fact, this book is a house in which all these great talents live happily, each in a separate room, given space for self-expression. The serious research that has gone into this book is evident as you move from one chapter to another, opening layers after layers presented non-seriously. Over 100 music makers are presented this way and many more in a huge single chapter.
