Manohar Publishers (Publisher)
Product Specifications
Book Description
This anthropological study, sparked by fieldwork among the Ho of Orissa and
Jharkhand, is about 'The Dead in Tribal Middle India' that continue to be
involved in the lives of the living. The structured ceremonious treatment of
corpses and the symbolic ineraction of the mourners-kin and friends-provide for
the actors' ritual orientation and guidance. This explores the cultural logic
surrounding the conceptual unity and continuity of life, death and afterlife by
examining the social and cultural setting of tribal middle India.
