Download or read book Visible and Invisible Realms written by Margaret J. Wiener and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1995-04-15 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1908, the ruler of the Balinese realm of Klungkung and more than 100 members of his family and court were massacred when they marched deliberately into the fire of the Dutch colonial army. The question of what their action meant and its continued significance in contemporary Klungkung forms the basis of Margaret Wiener's complex anthropolological history. Wiener challenges colonial and academic claims that Klungkung had no "real" power and argues that such claims enabled colonial domination. By focusing on Balinese discourses she makes clear the choices open to Balinese, both at the time of the Dutch conquest and in its narration. At the same time, she shows how these discourses, which revolve around magical weapons acquired from invisible agents such as gods, spirits, and ancestors, offer an alternative understanding of Klungkung's power. Moving between Balinese and Dutch narratives and between past and present, Wiener critiques colonial accounts by recounting Balinese memories and interpretations. Her attention to history and local situations illuminates the ways in which colonialism and orientalist scholarship have obscured the power of indigenous rulers and shows how Klungkung, once Bali's paramount realm, was relegated to a peripheral corner of the Indonesian nation-state. Both as a fascinating story and as a rich example of interdisciplinary scholarship, this book will interest students of colonialism, anthropology, history, religion, and Southeast Asia.

Download or read book Living with Magic written by Claire L Dunphy and published by . This book was released on 2024-01-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Claire L. Dunphy considered herself a worldly traveler, well-versed in the customs of different countries, different people...until she experienced Balinese black magic. Although an Earthwoman at heart, Claire dwells on the positive side of the magical see-saw, singing songs to animals (who always respond positively), living with nature and not on nature, and placing wildlife-decorated rock circles all across the American West, Mexico, and other far-flung places she has visited in her travels. But her move to Bali jolted her into a brand new world. In Puakan, a small forest village, she has engaged the local children in their own traditions, ritualized dances and began a milk aid program to help them grow physically, as she gently aids them in their quest to grow artistically and spiritually. In Claire's words, "Everything is Spirit in Bali."
