  • Chapter 5 – Date
    Chapter 5 – Date Luckily, most of the problems involving time have mostly been solved and packed away in software and hardware where we, and our customers overseas, do not have to deal with it. Thanks to standardization, if a vender in Peking wants to call a customer in Rome, he checks the Internet for the local time. As far as international business goes, it’s generally 24/7 anyway. Calendars on the other hand, are another matter. You may know what time it is in Khövsgöl, Mongolia, but are you sure what day it is, if it is a holiday, or even what year it is? The purpose of this chapter is to make you aware of just how many active calendars there are out there in current use and of the short comings of our Gregorian system as we try to apply it to the rest of the world. There just isn’t room to review them all so think of this as a kind of around the world in 80 days. There are so many different living calendars, and since the Internet is becoming our greatest library yet, a great many ancient ones that must be accounted for as well. We must consider them all in our collations. As I write this in 2010 by the Gregorian calendar, it is 2960 in Northwest Africa, 1727 in Ethopia, and 4710 by the Chinese calendar. A calendar is a symbol of identity. They fix important festivals and dates and help us share a common pacing in our lives. They are the most common framework a civilization or group of people can have.

  • BOOM! Boom! Boom! the Sound of the Huge Drums Beaten with a Loud and Lively Rhythm Stirs the Dragon to Action
    DRAGON TALES Chapter 1 Dragon Tales of Old China BOOM! boom! boom! The sound of the huge drums beaten with a loud and lively rhythm stirs the dragon to action. Shrill blasts from the trumpets add to his frenzy. His long body writhes; his mammoth jaws open and close. He snaps furiously at a huge ball held by one of the men. Angry that he has missed the red ball, the dragon lunges here and there. The crowd scatters, fearful of being struck by the monsters tail, as it lashes from side to side. The drums roll and crash like thunder. The shrieking trumpets make the great dragon seem like a formidable monster. Children and grownups regret to see him come to the end of his wild chase for the ball. Little does it matter to them that the dragon’s head and tail are made only of bamboo covered with colored paper. They forget that his long cloth body, stretching more than fifty feet down the narrow street, is supported by men carrying poles topped by circular frames. Once a year the dragon awakens in old China and roams the streets, going to homes and shops. He eats up the evil spirits, so the people say, and his presence brings good luck during the new year. Is it any wonder, then, that shopkeepers light long strings of firecrackers and offer gifts of food and money to the men who lead the dragon to their stores? This dragon play is one of the many forms of entertainment given in the streets of Chinese cities at the New Year.

Professor, Department of English Govt. M. M. R. PG College, Champa Dr. Tanjeen Ara Khan Asst. Professor, Department of English Govt. M. M. R. PG College, Champa Folklore is a part of culture and history. It has its roots in our ancestral history. It is a traditional heritage which is passed from one generation to another orally. Time has changed and it is observed that folklores are also getting documented. In this paper we would like to explore the wishes, desires and hope of Rajasthani women exhibited in the folklores related to Ganguar festival. Gangaur is a famous festival celebrated by young maiden and married women for longevity of their groom. It is celebrated for sixteen days and each day they sing folklores related to plucking grass to offering water. By these folklores they emancipate their desire to the patriarchy. These songs are meant for expression of self. It has polite way so that the hard hitting things can be conveyed by it easily. Folklores are being used by women of Rajasthan to talk about their fancies, whims and desires. India has a rich tradition of fair and festivals that form the fulcrum of the cultural life of the people. Rajasthan is known as the land of colours. Its culture is very rich in terms of festivity and celebration. Holi, Dussera, Diwali,Teej and Gangaur are most widely celebrated festivals here.
