  • The Seraikella Chhau Dance
    The Seraikella Chhau Dance Text and Photographs by Mohan Khokar If the one-time princely state of Seraikella is known to the outside world, it is mainly because of the Chhau dance. For centuries the people here-rulers and commonersalike-havecherished and preservedthisextraordinarily stylised and aesthetically rich form of art. Dance traditions bearing the same name, Chhau, also obtain in nearby Mayurbhanj. in Orissa, and Purulia, in West Bengal, and certain parallel characteristics suggest a common origin for the three. Broadly, however, the Chhau of Seraikella can be said to be poetic and evocative, that of Mayurbhanj earthy and vibrant, and of Purulia robust and virile. Hara-Parvatt. 25 Seraikella lies in the heart of the Singhbhum district, formerly of Orissa and now of Bihar. Girdled as it is by the rolling Saranda and Bangriposi hills, it has for centuries maintained its own peculiar religious and cultural traditions, immune to influence from without. And these traditions find their fullest flower­ ing once every year, at the time of Chaitra Parva, the Spring Festival . Preceded by elaborate ceremonies and rituals, the Chhau is performed for four or five nights and witnessed by thousands from the city and around. The technique of the Chhau dance stems from the parikhanda system of exercise, an important part of the training of the sipahis, or warriors, of Seraikella. Pari means shield and khanda sword, and in the parikhanda the performers all hold swords and shields in their hands when doing the exercises. The parikhanda is generally performed in the early hours of the morning and, traditionally, only at one place-a stretch of raised land on the bank of the Kharkai river, known as Bhairavsal.

The name Bharatnatyam is gotten from the word "Bharata’s" and subsequently connected with the Natyashashtra. Though the style of Bharatnatyam is over two thousand years old, the freshness and lavishness of its embodiment has been held even today. The strategy of human development which Bharatnatyam takes after can be followed back to the fifth Century A.D. from sculptural proof. This established move has an entrancing impact as it inspires the artist and the spectator to a larger amount of profound cognizance.

  • Arts-Integrated Learning
    ARTS-INTEGRATED LEARNING THE FUTURE OF CREATIVE AND JOYFUL PEDAGOGY The NCF 2005 states, ”Aesthetic sensibility and experience being the prime sites of the growing child’s creativity, we must bring the arts squarely into the domain of the curricular, infusing them in all areas of learning while giving them an identity of their own at relevant stages. If we are to retain our unique cultural identity in all its diversity and richness, we need to integrate art education in the formal schooling of our students for helping them to apply art-based enquiry, investigation and exploration, critical thinking and creativity for a deeper understanding of the concepts/topics. This integration broadens the mind of the student and enables her / him to see the multi- disciplinary links between subjects/topics/real life. Art Education will continue to be an integral part of the curriculum, as a co-scholastic area and shall be mandatory for Classes I to X. Please find attached the rich cultural heritage of India and its cultural diversity in a tabular form for reading purpose. The young generation need to be aware of this aspect of our country which will enable them to participate in Heritage Quiz under the aegis of CBSE.

  • Organising Traditional Knowledge for Inclusive Development : Role of Libraries
    Bangladesh Journal of Library and Information Science Organising Traditional Knowledge for Inclusive Development : Role of Libraries Ratna Bandyopadhyay1 and Krishnapada Majumder2 Abstract In this paper we discuss traditional knowledge, its importance especially in inclusive development and knowledge management activities taken up in West Bengal. We also focus on the role of libraries especially public libraries in preserving and propagating this cultural heritage and traditional knowledge. Keywords: Traditional knowledge, Knowledge management, West Bengal, Libraries. Nature of Traditional Knowledge The Director General of UNESCO has stated the following about traditional knowledge: “The indigenous people of the world possess an immense knowledge of their environments, based on centuries of living close to nature. Living in and from the richness and variety of complex ecosystems, they have an understanding of the properties of plants and animals, the functioning of ecosystems and the techniques for using and managing them that is particular and often detailed. In rural communities in developing countries, locally occurring species are relied on for many - sometimes all - foods, medicines, fuel, building materials and other products. Equally, people’s knowledge and perceptions of the environment, and their relationships with it, are often important elements of cultural identity.”[8] Traditional knowledge is based on the practical experiences of common people, deep rooted in the life of the people of the community. This has been transmitted verbally through generations. It has become part of their life. This knowledge is implicit and difficult to organize. But proper organization of this knowledge is necessary as it shows the way for comprehensive social and economic development of the community as well as of the nation as a whole.
