Download or read book The Ho Living in a World of Plenty written by Eva Reichel and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2020-08-10 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is set in the anthropologically much-neglected multi-ethnic interior of Highland Middle India. It is the result of fieldwork done over a period of more than a decade among the Ho, an indigenous community of approximately one million people, who have shared cultural norms and the space of the hilly region of the Chota Nagpur Plateau with other aboriginal (adivasi) and artisan communities for ages. The book explores the structured tapestry of Ho people’s relations and interrelatedness within their culture-specific sociocosmic universe ensuring their social reproduction in the present and affording them the means for and the awareness of living in a world of plenty. This world of abundance – with the Ho as its conceptual centre – includes the Ho’s dead, their complex spirit world and supreme deity, and their tribal and nontribal fellow humans, and it manifests itself in manifold facets of their lives: socially, ritually, economically, and linguistically. "This is an important piece of work. The ethnographic details in it are invaluable. The fieldwork is superb. What comes across so magnificently is that unique quality of the author's human and emotional contact and shared understanding with the people." MICHAEL YORKE: University College, London; Upside Films
Download or read book Grammar of the Ho Language written by Lionel Burrows and published by Trubner. This book was released on 2003-04-01 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It is certainly an accepted historical fact that the Santals, Hos and Mundas originally belong to the same ethnic group, and it had been amply demonstrated that they still represent the same ethnic type with a strong linguistic affinity between the dialects they use. The language of the original ancient race, however, was not written so far as is known, and there is therefore no classical standard by which its various surviving forms can be measured and composed. Although the three dialects, Santali, Mundari and Ho, of the so called Munda family of languages, do contain marked features of common descent, they have, by the action of time and separate environments, drifted apart on many points of usage, particularly vocabulary and pronunciation. The language spoken by the Hos is a Munda or Kolarian dialect to which Mundari and Santali are nearly allied. This book, being reissued in April 2003, is perhaps the first such attempt to expose the Ho dialect in its entire form, not only giving details of the intricacies of the language but also providing English-Ho vocabulary with short pieces of translation."
Download or read book Korean Language in Culture and Society written by Ho-min Sohn and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2005-12-31 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intended as a companion to the popular KLEAR Textbooks in Korean Language series and designed and edited by a leading Korean linguist, this is the first volume of its kind to treat specifically the critical role of language in Korean culture and society. An introductory chapter provides the framework of the volume, defining language, culture, and society and their interrelatedness and presenting an overview of the Korean language vis-à-vis its culture and society from evolutionary and dynamic perspectives. Early on, contributors examine the invention and use of the Korean alphabet, South Korea’s "standard language" vs. North Korea’s "cultured language," and Korean in contact with Chinese and Japanese. Several topics representative of Korean socio-cultural vocabulary (sound symbolic words, proverbs, calendar-related terms, kinship terms, slang expressions) are discussed, followed by a consideration of Korean honorifics and other related issues. Two chapters on Korean media, one on advertisements and the other a comparative analysis of television ads in Korea, Japan, and the U.S., follow. Finally, contributors look at salient features of the language, narrative structure, and dialectal variation. All chapters are accompanied by a set of student questions and a useful bibliography. A beginning level of proficiency in Korean is sufficient to digest the Korean examples with facility, making this volume accessible to a wide range of students. Contributors: Andrew S. Byon, Sungdai Cho, Young-A Cho, Young-mee Y. Cho, Miho Choo, Shin Ja J. Hwang, Ross King, Haejin Elizabeth Koh, Jeyseon Lee, Douglas Ling, Duk-Soo Park, Yong-Yae Park, S.

Download or read book Building Ho s Army written by Xiaobing Li and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2019-09-10 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Built upon a solid foundation of sources, memoirs, and interviews, this study sheds new light on China's efforts in the Vietnam War. Utilizing secondary works in Chinese, Vietnamese, and Western languages, and the author's own familiarity as a former member of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, this examination expands the knowledge of China's relations with the North Vietnamese Army (NVA) during the 1950s and 1960s. As a communist state bordering Vietnam, China actively facilitated the transformation of Ho Chi Minh's army from a small, loosely organized, poorly equipped guerrilla force in the 1940s into a formidable, well-trained professional army capable of defeating first the French (1946–1954) and then the Americans (1963–1973). Even after the signing of the Geneva Peace Agreement, China continued to aggressively support Vietnam. Between 1955 and 1963, Chinese military aid totaled $106 million and these massive contributions enabled Ho Chi Minh to build up a strong conventional force. After 1964, China increased its aid and provided approximately $20 billion more in military and economic aid to Vietnam. Western strategists and historians have long speculated about the extent of China's involvement in Vietnam, but it was not until recently that newly available archival materials revealed the true extent of China's influence—its level of military assistance training, strategic advising, and monetary means during the war. This illuminating study answers questions about China's intention, objective, strategy, and operations of its involvement in the Vietnam Wars.
