D.V.BORKAR PREFACE It gives me great pleasure in presenting the Fourteenth Annual Report of Goa University for the academic year 1993-99. The Report is presented in six parts. Part 1 - General Administration, Part 2 - Authorities of the University, Part 3 PG Departments/Centres on the University Campus, Part 4 - Affiliated Colleges, professional and General, Part 5 - Recognized Institutions and Part 6 - Financial Statement. The Report has been compiled by the University, based on the information provided by the various administrative sections, PG Departments/Centres departments, affiliated Colleges and Recognized Institutions. It has been our experience that the process of collecting information is time consuming and as well as difficult. Besides the information obtained is often incomplete. This has caused difficulties in the editorial work, leading to delays in finalization of the Report. It will be helpful, if all the concerned sectors of our University give a prompt response and provide complete information to the Editorial Committee in the future, so that the Annual Report is brought out in time and is also complete in all respects. ' The bygone year has been another important year in the consolidation and build up of the academic and research activities at the University. New academic programmes were launched in this year; e.g., PG Diploma in Applied Plant Sciences (Dept. of Botany), Master of Laws (Faculty of Law), B.Sc.(Vocational) in Biotechnology and in Industrial Chemistry (affiliated Colleges and proposals for new programmes and facilities were made to the University Grants Commission and other funding agencies. The University participated in a major Indo-French scientific programme, viz., Indian Ocean Experiment (Ind° Ex), under which more than 20 instrumented high altitude balloons for upper atmospheric data collection/analysis were launched from the University campus during Jan-Feb. 1999, so as to understand the Indian monsoons. Many new academic and other buildings, laboratory equipment and facilities were added to the University campus in this period. The University also received its IX Plan allocation of funds from the UGC in this period as well as a special grant from the Planning Commission. I express my sincere gratitude to H.E. Governor of Goa and Visitor, Goa University for the keen interest he has shown in the functioning of the University.. I am extremely thankful to the State Government for all the continued support in the implementation of the objectives. I also thank the University Grants Commission and the Planning Commission for the IX Plan grants allocated to the University. I also place on record my sincere thanks to the members of Court, Academic Council, Executive Council Planning Board and other Bodies of the University for their understanding and cooperation.. My grateful thanks are also due to all the teaching and non-teaching staff members and students of the University for making 1995-99 yet another successful year. Taleigao Plateau Professor B. S.

    FOR PRIVATE CIRCULATION ONLY An ISO 9001:2008 Certified Organisation Volume IV, Issue III Newsletter July - September, 2013 The rain - soaked ramp to the Library DIRECTOR ’S MESSAGE Dear Friends, Greetings! As I am writing this, the rains seem to have bid us good bye finally! July this year, was by far the wettest month, not a single day went by when there was no rain. Yet we continued relentlessly with our work and programmes all through the monsoons. As you will see in the Newsletter, we have given you again a complete range from seminars to workshops, to book readings, lectures and quizzes. An evening tea with some members resulted in a coffee demonstration session, which was very well attended. Apart from seminars and debates, it seems, we have a large audience for interesting programmes like these too. In July, we had elections for a new President of the Centre. The members of the Board elect the President, from amongst the life trustees for a term of five years. Mr. Yatin Kakodkar was unanimously elected as President and Mr. Dattaraj Salgaocar as Vice President. We bid a sad farewell to Mr. Pratap Singh Rane who was President for two consecutive terms. Mr. Kakodkar and Mr. Salgaocar, are both actively involved in the running of the Centre and like to keep abreast of all activities which are happening here. We welcome them and wish them both a happy and successful tenure. As the months go by, we are getting closer to our grand annual event-the Goa Arts and Literary Festival.

    LIVES OF THE WOMEN i ii iii iv v Chapter 1 The many hats Sister Anila Verghese wears Karen Dsouza, Sakshi Sharma, Shreya Khare, Susanna Cherian 1 Lives of the Women When we started this exercise, we asked Doctor (Sister) Anila Verghese for her biodata. We received by return mail, a forty-three page document. It was a summation of an amazing career as an art historian, a social scientist studying the operation of religion in mediaeval India, and an academician who has balanced the religious life with the life of a scholar and of an administrator. The story began 69 years ago when a girl was born to Rosy and P R Verghese. “My mother, Rosy Verghese, was a homemaker; she never went to work. That generation of women hardly ever did. She was a loving and caring person, kind and concerned about the poor. These are the two qualities that I think I gained from her. My father was stricter than my mother, though he was also kind. He was a fair and just person. This showed in his dealings with people; he retired as the Chief Engineer of Western Railway. This meant that he had to deal with the unions at a time when the unions were very powerful. In 1974, there was an All-India Railway strike. It was historic, the only all-India strike ever in the history of the railways. The railways stopped working for an entire month. Even today, with so much air traffic and increased road traffic, if a railway strike were to happen, it would cause a major upheaval in the lives 2 Lives of the Women of the ordinary person.

Using theories of creolization, archival and field research in Goa, and an understanding of quadrille dancing as a social and memorial act, this article presents the mando as a peninsular, Indic, creolized quadrille.

All research fieldwork (except that in Angola) was done through ERC Advanced Grant funding.
