  • Anglo-Indian Identity, Knowledge, and Power
    Anglo-Indian Identity, Knowledge, and Power Western Ballroom Music in Lucknow Bradley Shope Beginning in the first half of the 20th century, Western ballroom and dance music began to make its way into Lucknow in Uttar Pradesh, as well as other cities in North India. It was imported via gramophone disks, radio broadcasts, and sheet music coming from Europe and America. In the 1930s, an increasing number of dance halls, railway social institutes, auditoriums, and cafe´s were built to cater to a growing number of British and Americans in India, satisfying their nostalgia for the live performance of the foxtrot, the tango, the waltz, the rumba, big-band music, and Dixieland. Influenced by sound and broadcast technology, sheet music, instrument availability, the railway system, and con- vent schools teaching music, an appreciation for these styles of music was found in other communities. Especially involved were Portuguese Goans and Anglo-Indians, defined here as those of European and Indian descent who were born and raised in India.1 For these two groups, it served to assert their identities as distinct from other South Asians and highlighted that their taste for music reached beyond the geographical boundaries of India. Numerous types of media, institutions, and venues contributed to this vibrant Western music performance culture in Lucknow in the early 20th century. James Perry, an elderly Goan musician, and Mr. John Sebastian and Mr. Jonathan Taylor,2 two elderly Anglo-Indian ex-railway workers, were involved in its perfor- mance and appreciation.3 By drawing from multiple field interviews in North India conducted with these individuals between 1999 and 2001, and by de- scribing the character of the performance culture, I will highlight the role of music in creating socioeconomic mobility and a distinct identity among Anglo-Indians in Lucknow, and address issues of power relations and coloni- alism with reference to the consumption of the music.

  • The Story and Methods of the Chatino Language Documentation Project
    Vol. 8 (2014), pp. 490-524 http://nflrc.hawaii.edu/ldc/ http://hdl.handle.net/10125/24615 Finding a way into a family of tone languages: The story and methods of the Chatino Language Documentation Project Emiliana Cruz University of Massachusetts at Amherst Anthony C. Woodbury University of Texas at Austin We give a narrative description of our ten-year path into the elaborate tonal systems of the Chatino languages (Otomanguean; Oaxaca, Mexico), and of some of the methods we have used and recommend, illustrated with specific examples. The work, ongoing at the time of writing, began when one of us (Cruz), a native speaker of San Juan Quiahije Chatino, entered the University of Texas at Austin as a Ph.D. student and formed, together with the other of us (Woodbury), a professor there, the Chatino Language Documentation Project, ultimately incorporating five other Ph.D. students and two other senior researchers. We argue for the importance of an interplay among speaker and non-speaker perspectives over the long course of work; a mix of introspection, hypothesis-testing, natural speech record- ing, transcription, translation, grammatical analysis, and dictionary-making as research methods and activities; an emphasis on community training as an active research context; the simultaneous study of many varieties within a close-knit language family to leverage progress; and the use of historical-comparative methods to get to know tonal systems and the roles they play at a deeper level. 0. PREAMBLE. Emiliana: My first language was Chatino. I started primary school when I was six years old. At that time, I did not speak Spanish.

  • Recovering After Childbirth in the Mixtec Highlands (Mexico)
    M~DICAMENTSET ALIMENTS :L'APPROCHE ETHNOPHARMACOLOGIQLJE I 99 Recovering after childbirth in the Mixtec highlands (Mexico) KATZ Esther ORSTOM (Institut Français de Recherche Scientifique pourle Développement en Coopération) Département MAA (Milieu et Activités Agricoles) 213, rue Lafayette- 75480 PARIS Cedex 10 - FRANCE Fa: 33-1-40351713 RÉSUMÉ Les Indiens du haut pays mixtèque, tout comme d'autres Indiens du Mexique, prennent particulièrement soin des jeunes accouchées. Un certain nombre de travaux portent sur la grossesse et l'accouchement au Mexique, mais le thème du post- partum a été peu étudié en profondeur, bien que les indigknes insistent sur le danger et l'importance des soins à cette période. Dans ce travail, la conception, la grossesse et l'accouchement sont décrits à titre introductif, tandis que les pratiques du post- partum sont analysées en détail : la période de repos de 20 ou 40 jours, le régime alimentaire particulier, l'abstinence sexuelle, les diverses précautions et prohibitions, les soins corporels, les tisanes, les bains de plantes et surtout, le bain de vapeur, à fonction à la fois thérapeutique et rituelle. L'article posele problème de l'analyse des données touchant aux pratiques corpo- relles féminines, difficilement verbalisées. Il amorce également une comparaison avec les pratiques des pays industrialisés occidentaux et suggère de puiser dans les pratiques et les connaissances des sociétés dites << traditionnelles >> pour remédier aux dépressions post-partum.

A NOTE OF EXPLANATION The title of this paper promises more than I have it in my power to fulfil. It has seemed best, therefore, to begin with a brief explanatory statement. An investigation of the international financial and economic relations of China is now being carried on. It will extend over a number of years, in­ cludes a visit to China on my part, and is planned to cover the whole of a wide and difficult subject. In the work of this investigation it has fallen to me to deal with American investments in China. After a brief survey of the situation the conclusion was forced upon me that I would be obliged to undertake a new and inde­ pendent study. A considerable amount of work has been done on this new study, but it is impossible to say whether it will be successfully completed, since its success depends, in large measure, upon its inclusiveness.

There has been a historical assumption that, starting with the hostilities in 1931, the Japanese were maligned in American public opinion. Consequently, the assumption has been made that Americans supported the Chinese without reserve during their conflict with Japan in the 1930s.

This snapshot formed the title page of an exhibit at the University of Texas at Austin’s Benson Latin American Collection in 2018. A collection of these and other documents by Rupert Chambers will become part of a permanent archive at the library.
