Book excerpt: Georgiana Kingscote, an English woman living in Southern India, sent her servants out into bazaars to collect tales from elderly women. She was assisted in this venture by Pandit Sastri, who corrected the text and added others from his own collections. A heavily moralistic tone pervades many of the tales, as indicated by such titles as "Charity Alone Conquers, Pride Goeth Before a Fall, " and "Mr. Won't Give and Mr. Won't Leave." Other tales possess magical motifs, evident in "The Wonderful Mango-fruit The Monkey with the Tom-Tom, " and "The Brahmin Girl That Married a Tiger." Kingscote provides explanatory notes within the texts and she retains the comparative notes written by Cowper Temple and William Clouston for chapter XIII: "The Lost Camel and Other Tales." These comparative notes, which list variants of the tales in oral tradition, literature, and newspapers, enhance the value of the collection for folklorists.Mrs. Adeline Georgiana Isabella Kingscote (1860-1908) was the daughter of SirHenry Drummond Charles Wolff (1830-1908). After marrying Colonel Howard Kingscote, she spent a period in India, where she wrote two books: Tales of the Sun or Folklore of Southern India (1890) and The English Baby in India and How to Rear It (1893).

This book was released on 2023-02-25 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Folklore Studies in India: Critical Regional Responses is an interesting compilation of twenty-eight critical articles on the beginning of folklore studies in the different parts of India. In the absence of a book that could map the history of Indian folklore studies single-handedly, this book can be deemed as the first-of-its-kind to feature the historical development of folklore studies in the different states of India. This book succinctly introduces the readers to the folk culture, folk arts, and folk genres of a particular region and to the different aspects of folkloristic researches carried out in that region.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can a subject be sovereign in a hegemony? Can creativity be reined in by forces of empire? Studying closely the oral narrations and writings of four Indian authors in colonial India, The Audacious Raconteur argues that even the most hegemonic circumstances cannot suppress "audacious raconteurs": skilled storytellers who fashion narrative spaces that allow themselves to remain sovereign and beyond subjugation. By drawing attention to the vigorous orality, maverick use of photography, literary ventriloquism, and bilingualism in the narratives of these raconteurs, Leela Prasad shows how the ideological bulwark of colonialism—formed by concepts of colonial modernity, history, science, and native knowledge—is dismantled. Audacious raconteurs wrest back meanings of religion, culture, and history that are closer to their lived understandings. The figure of the audacious raconteur does not only hover in an archive but suffuses everyday life. Underlying these ideas, Prasad's personal interactions with the narrators' descendants give weight to her innovative argument that the audacious raconteur is a necessary ethical and artistic figure in human experience. Thanks to generous funding from Duke University, the ebook editions of this book are available as Open Access volumes from Cornell Open (cornellpress.cornell.edu/cornell-open) and other repositories.
