Making faces : self and image creation in a himalayan valley / Hingorani, Alka (cop 2013) 

Public ISBD Titre : Making faces : self and image creation in a himalayan valley Type de document : Livre(s) Identité(s) : Alka Hingorani, auteur Editeur : Honolulu : University of Hawaï Press Année de publication : cop 2013 Importance : 1 vol. (x, 147 p.) Présentation : couv. ill. en coul., ill. en coul. Format : 25 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-8248-3525-5 Langues : Anglais (eng) Concepts : [Noms communs] Arts et religion [Rameau] Inde -- Sculpture Mots-clés : mohras Index. décimale : 16.4 Sculpture Résumé : Taberam Soni, Labh Singh, Amar Singh, and other artists live and work in the hill-villages of the lower Himalayas in Himachal Pradesh, India. There they fashion face-images of deities (mohras) out of thin sheets of precious metal. Commissioned by upper-caste patrons, the objects are cultural embodiments of divine and earthly kinship. As the artists make the images, they also cross caste boundaries in a part of India where such differences still determine rules of contact and correspondence, proximity and association. Once a mohra has been completed and consecrated, its maker is not permitted to touch it or enter the temple in which it is housed; yet during its creation the artist is sovereign, treated deferentially as he shares living quarters with the high-caste patrons. Making Faces tells the story of these god-makers, the gods they make, and the communities that participate in the creative process and its accompanying rituals. For the author, the process of learning about Himachal, its art and artists, the people who make their home there, involved pursuing itinerant artists across difficult mountainous terrain with few, if any, means of communication between the thinly populated, high-altitude villages. The harsh geography of the region permits scant travel, and the itinerant artisan forms a critical link to the world outside; villages that commission mohras are often populated by a small number of families. Alka Hingorani evokes this world in rich visual and descriptive detail as she explores the ways in which both object and artisan are received and their identities transformed during a period of artistic endeavor. Making Faces is an original and evocative account, superbly illustrated, of the various phases in the lifecycle of a mohra, at different times a religious icon, an art object, and a repository of material wealth in an otherwise subsistence economy. It will be welcomed by scholars and students of anthropology, material culture, religion, art history, and South Asian studies.

McGlynn, éditeur scientifique ; Matthew Isaac Cohen, éditeur scientifique Editeur : Honolulu : University of Hawaï Press Année de publication : cop 2010 Importance : 1 vol. (273 p.)

Format : 24 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-8248-7493-3 Langues : Anglais (eng) Langues originales : Indonésien (ind) Concepts : [Rameau] Théâtre (genre littéraire) -- Indonésie [Rameau] Théâtre populaire -- Indonésie Index. décimale : 96 Pièces de théâtre Résumé : Love, magic, revenge, romance, heroism, cross-dressing, murder... The popular stages of urban Indonesia offer windows on interethnic cultural obsessions, and signs of participation in global trends. Originating with the growth of cities in the late nineteenth century, popular theater addressed a new social constellation, the mass audience. This new theater in the lingue franca of Malay (later Indonesian) was fast paced, lyrical, sentimental and sensationalist. Some plays were escapist, others intended to rouse nationalist sentiments in revolutionary times, or instigate social change. This volume collects plays representing the diverse genres that make up Indonesian popular theater: komedi stambul, a musical theater initially dedicated to Arabian Nights plays; opera derma or Chinese-Indonesian "charity opera"; tonil, realist social drama interspersed with vaudeville numbers; sandiwara or nationalist drama; and lenong, a folk theater of Jakarta that resurged in the late 1960s when it found a new audience amond students seeking an idiom for urban belonging.

The Bunraku Puppet Theatre of Japan : honor, vengeance, and love in four plays of the 18th and 19th centuries (2013) 

Public ISBD Titre : The Bunraku Puppet Theatre of Japan : honor, vengeance, and love in four plays of the 18th and 19th centuries Type de document : Livre(s) Identité(s) : Chikamatsu Hanji (1725-1783) Editeur : Honolulu : University of Hawaï Press Année de publication : 2013 Importance : 1 vol. (303 p.) Présentation : ill. couv. en coul., ill. en noir Format : 23 x 15 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-8248-3680-1 Note générale : Bibliogr. p. 301-303 Langues : Américain (ame) Concepts : [Rameau] Bunraku [Rameau] Marionnettes -- Histoire -- Japon Index. décimale : 33.7 Bunraku - Histoire Résumé : The plays presented here were first performed between 1769 and 1832, a time when the Japanese puppet theatre known as Bunraku was beginning to lose its pre-eminence to Kabuki. During this period, however, several important puppet plays were created that went on to become standards in both the Bunraku and Kabuki repertoires; three of the plays in this volume achieved this level of importance. This span of some sixty-odd years was also a formative one in the development of how plays were presented, an important feature in the modern staging of works from the traditional plebeian theatre. Only a handful of complete and uncut plays—often as much as ten hours long—are produced in Bunraku or Kabuki nowadays; included here is one of these. Two among the four plays contained in this volume are examples of the much more common practice of staging a single popular act or scene from a much longer drama that itself is seldom, if ever, performed in its entirety today.
