La particularité de ces soieries confectionnées suivant le procédé de double ikat, reste dans la complexité de sa technique de tissage ainsi que le métier à tisser utilisé dans sa fabrication. En tant que marchandises les plus précieuses, ils ont connu un succès dans le marché international dans les XVIIIe et XIXe siècles dans les pays de l’Asie du Sud-est, notamment en Indonésie. A l’heure actuelle, n’y ayant qu’une seule famille à pratiquer cette technique en Inde, un risque imminent de disparition de cet art persiste. Cette étude examine l’histoire des patola ainsi que son rôle dans le mondialisation et l’échange culturel. A travers ce travail, nous proposons des stratégies muséographiques qui pourront éventuellement servir comme base pour la conservation et valorisation de cet art mais également d’autres expressions culturelles en péril en Inde contemporaine. Mot-clés : patola, histoire des techniques, muséalisation, Inde, soieries, écomusée, patrimoine immatériel. ABSTRACT Created in Patan in Gujarat, patola silk is considered to be among the best hand- woven silk in India. A long standing weaving tradition, the patola silks fall under the resist-dyed category of textiles where both weft and warp threads are dyed before the weaving begins. Although the patola textiles were extremely popular in the global market in the 18th and 19th centuries, especially in Indonesia, this weaving technique and the textiles face an imminent danger of extinction. Today, there is only one family in Patan that still practices this art. This research aims at examining the history of this textile and its significance in globalization and cross- cultural exchange. It explores museological strategies that could generate models for preserving and valorizing this as well as other cultural expressions in danger of disappearing in contemporary India. Key words: patola, history of technology, musealization, India, silk textiles, ecomuseum, intangible heritage. ii ACRONYMES ASB Société asiatique de Bengale (Asiatic Society of Bengal) ASI Service archéologique de l’Inde (Archeological Survey of India) CCK Centre pour la connaissance des communautés (Centre for Community Knowledge) CCI Conseil indien de l’artisanat (Crafts Council of India) CGC Commission géographique de la province du Canada.

  • Hidden Bali Experiences Small-Group Tours That Touch the Heart of Bali
    Hidden Bali Experiences small-group tours that touch the heart of Bali Our Hidden Bali Experiences can be arranged at any time to grant you access to authentic culture that honors tradition and avoids commoditization. Building on more than 20 years of experience of leading culturally sensitive tours in Bali and based on deep relationships with local people and communities, these are intimate 3-day or 4-day tours arranged to fit your travel itineraries and led by expert guides for small groups of 2 to 6 guests. Each experience is themed around a specific aspect of Bali’s heritage, including the Textile Arts, the Festival Cycle, the Performing Arts, and the Natural World. For more information on these Experiences, please visit our website at http://www.threadsoflife.com The Textile Arts Experience The Indonesian archipelago was once the crossroads of the world. For over 3500 years, people have come here seeking fragrant spices, and textiles were the central barter objects in this story of trade, conquest and ancient tradition. An exploration of Bali’s textile art traditions grants us access to this story. Spice trade influences juxtapose with indigenous motifs throughout the archipelago: echoes of Indian trade cloths abound; imagery relates to defining aspects of the local environment; history and genealogy entwine. Uses range from traditional dress, to offerings, to the paraphernalia of marriages and funerals. Our gateway to this world is through the island of Bali, where we steep ourselves in the island’s rich traditions while based at the Umajati Retreat near Ubud. Here we will receive insightful introductions to the local culture, and visit several weavers with which Threads of Life is working to help women create high-quality textiles that balance their desires for sustainable incomes and cultural integrity.

  • “Lost in Translation”: a Study of the History of Sri Lankan Literature
    Karunakaran / Lost in Translation “Lost in Translation”: A Study of the History of Sri Lankan Literature Shamila Karunakaran Abstract This paper provides an overview of the history of Sri Lankan literature from the ancient texts of the precolonial era to the English translations of postcolonial literature in the modern era. Sri Lanka’s book history is a cultural record of texts that contains “cultural heritage and incorporates everything that has survived” (Chodorow, 2006); however, Tamil language works are written with specifc words, ideas, and concepts that are unique to Sri Lankan culture and are “lost in translation” when conveyed in English. Keywords book history, translation iJournal - Journal Vol. 4 No. 1, Fall 2018 22 Karunakaran / Lost in Translation INTRODUCTION The phrase “lost in translation” refers to when the translation of a word or phrase does not convey its true or complete meaning due to various factors. This is a common problem when translating non-Western texts for North American and British readership, especially those written in non-Roman scripts. Literature and texts are tangible symbols, containing signifed cultural meaning, and they represent varying aspects of an existing international ethnic, social, or linguistic culture or group. Chodorow (2006) likens it to a cultural record of sorts, which he defnes as an object that “contains cultural heritage and incorporates everything that has survived” (pg. 373). In particular, those written in South Asian indigenous languages such as Tamil, Sanskrit, Urdu, Sinhalese are written with specifc words, ideas, and concepts that are unique to specifc culture[s] and cannot be properly conveyed in English translations.

  • Slavery and Caste Supremacy in the American Ceylon Mission
    Article CASTE: A Global Journal on Social Exclusion Vol. 1, No. 1, pp. 155–174 February 2020 brandeis.edu/j-caste ISSN 2639-4928 DOI: 10.26812/caste.v1i1.117 In Nāki’s Wake: Slavery and Caste Supremacy in the American Ceylon Mission Mark E. Balmforth1 (Bluestone Rising Scholar Honorable Mention 2019) Abstract In 1832, a woman named Caṅkari Nāki died in Ceylon, and her descendants have been haunted by a curse ever since. One of the first converts of the American Ceylon Mission, Nāki was part of an enslaved caste community unique to the island, and one of the few oppressed-caste members of the mission. The circumstances of her death are unclear; the missionary archive is silent on an event that one can presume would have affected the small Christian community, while the family narrative passed through generations is that Nāki was murdered by members of the locally dominant Vellalar caste after marrying one of their own. In response to this archival erasure, this essay draws on historical methods developed by Saidiya Hartman and Gaiutra Bahadur to be accountable to enslaved and indentured lives and, in Hartman’s words, to ‘make visible the production of disposable lives.’ These methods actively question what we can know from the archives of an oppressor and, for this essay, enable a reading of Nāki’s life at the centre of a mission struggling over how to approach caste. Nāki’s story, I argue, helps reveal an underexplored aspect of the interrelationship between caste and slavery in South Asia, and underlines the value of considering South Asian slave narratives as source material into historiographically- and archivally-obscured aspects of dominant caste identity.

    Ethno-Computation: Culturally Specific Design Application of Geringsing Textile Patterns Nyoman Dewi Pebryani 1, Michael C.B. Kleiss 2 1 Clemson University [email protected] 1 Indonesia Institute of The Arts (ISI) Denpasar [email protected] 2 Clemson University [email protected] Abstract. This study focuses on (1) understanding the indigenous algorithm of specific material culture named Geringsing textile patterns, and then (2) transforming the indigenous algorithm into an application that best serves local artisans and younger generation as a design tool and educational tool. Patterns design, which is created in textile as a material culture from a specific area, has a unique design grammar. Geringsing textile is unique to this part of the world because it is produced with double-ikat weaving technique, and this technique is only used in three places in the world. This material culture passes from generation to generation as an oral tradition. To safeguard, document, and digitize this knowledge, a sequential research methodology of ethnography and computation is employed in this study to understand the indigenous algorithm of Geringsing textile patterns, and then to translate the algorithm with computer simulation. This culturally specific design application then is tested by two local artisans and two aspiring artists from the younger generations in the village to see whether this application can serve as a design and educational tool. Keywords: Ethno-Computation, Culturally specific, Indigenous algorithm, Geringsing. 1 Introduction Material culture refers to the physical objects, resources, and spaces that people use to define their culture, therefore material culture is produced based on the cultural knowledge owned by the local people in a specific area.

THE FIBER OF OUR LIVES: A CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK FOR LOOKING AT TEXTILES’ MEANINGS BEVERLY GORDON [email protected] I have been fascinated for decades with all of the meanings that fiber and cloth can hold—they are a universal part of human life, and fill an almost endless number of roles in our practical, personal, emotional, social, communicative, economic, aesthetic and spiritual lives. I have worked at finding meaningful ways to both explain textiles’ importance, and organize and synthesize the many disparate ideas that are part of this phenomenon. The following is the holistic framework or conceptual model I have developed that can be used to articulate and compare the meanings of textiles of any given culture or historic period. It is designed to be as inclusive as possible—to allow us to think about textiles and the roles they play in human consciousness and through the full range of human activities and concerns.
