State intervention often ignores or suppresses ICCAs, inadvertently or deliberately undermining and destroying them along with other aspects of indigenous peoples’ cultures, livelihoods, self-governance, and self-determination. Nepal’s high Himalayan national parks, however, provide examples of how some indigenous peoples such as the Sharwa (Sherpa) of Sagarmatha (Mount Everest/Chomolungma) National Park (SNP) have continued to maintain customary ICCAs and even to develop new ones despite lack of state recognition, respect, and coordination. The survival of these ICCAs offers Nepal an opportunity to reform existing laws, policies, and practices, both to honour UN-recognised human and indigenous rights that support ICCAs and to meet International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) standards and guidelines for ICCA recognition and for the governance and management of protected areas established in indigenous peoples’ territories.

    THE SHERPA AND THE SNOWMAN Charles Stonor the "Snowman" exist an ape DOESlike creature dwelling in the unexplored fastnesses of the Himalayas or is he only a myth ? Here the author describes a quest which began in the foothills of Nepal and led to the lower slopes of Everest. After five months of wandering in the vast alpine stretches on the roof of the world he and his companions had to return without any demon strative proof, but with enough indirect evidence to convince them that the jeti is no myth and that one day he will be found to be of a a very remarkable man-like ape type thought to have died out thousands of years before the dawn of history. " Apart from the search for the snowman," the narrative investigates every aspect of life in this the highest habitable region of the earth's surface, the flora and fauna of the little-known alpine zone below the snow line, the unexpected birds and beasts to be met with in the Great Himalayan Range, the little Buddhist communities perched high up among the crags, and above all the Sherpas themselves that stalwart people chiefly known to us so far for their gallant assistance in climbing expeditions their yak-herding, their happy family life, and the wav they cope with the bleak austerity of their lot.

The Ichigenkin Making My Own Copyright © 2012 Charuko Nakamachi Introduction I’m writing this for anyone who might be interested in owning their own ichigenkin, and like me, cannot afford to get one from Japan. It might be an interesting proposition to revitalize the versatility of this instrument and bring it out of ancient obscurity into new light as an instrument for modern innovative music. Since I can’t pop over to Japan and pick one up, I’ve decided to return to the concept of “if you can’t buy one, why not make one for yourself?!” When I was in college, I acquired an album of Japanese music that was entitled “Koto: Music of the One String Ichigenkin,” (Isshi Yamada: Ichigenkin and Fuzan Sato: Shakuhachi, Folkways Records, 1968). I thought it might be similar to the music of the thirteen stringed koto (that I had grown to love and was well known at that time), but when I got it home I heard a treasure of beauty and simplicity that gave me a new love.

  • Common Perspectives in Post-Colonial Indian and African Fiction in English
    COMMON PERSPECTIVES IN POST-COLONIAL INDIAN AND AFRICAN FICTION IN ENGLISH ABSTRACT THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF Bottor of IN ENGLISH LITERATURE BY AMINA KISHORE DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH ALIGARH MUSLIIVI UNIVERSITY ALIGARH 1995 Abstract The introduction of the special paper on Commonwealth Literature at the Post Graduate level and the paper called 'Novel other than British and American' at the Under Graduate level at AMU were the two major eventualities which led to this study. In the paper offered to the M A students, the grouping together of Literatures from atleast four of the Commonwealth nations into one paper was basically a makeshift arrangement. The objectives behind the formulation of such separate area as courses for special study remained vaguely described and therefore unjustified. The teacher and students, were both uncertain as to why and how to hold the disparate units together. The study emerges out of such immediate dilemma and it hopes to clarify certain problematic concerns related to the student of the Commonwealth Literature. Most Commonwealth criticism follows either (a) a justificatory approach; or (b) a confrontationist approach; In approach (a) usually a defensive stand is taken by local critics and a supportive non-critical, indulgent stand is adopted by the Western critic. In both cases, the issue of language use, nomenclature and the event cycle of colonial history are the routes by which the argument is moved. Approach (b) invariably adopts the Post-Colonial Discourse as its norm of presenting the argument. According to this approach, the commonness of Commonwealth Literatures emerges from the fact that all these Literatures have walked ••• through the fires of enslavement and therefore are anguished, embattled units of creative expression.

  • A Critical Examination on R.K. Narayan's Swami and Friends
    A CRITICAL EXAMINATION ON R.K. NARAYAN’S SWAMI AND FRIENDS Dr. Rajtinder Singh Jhanji Principal, A.S. College, Khanna. ABSTRACT Swami and Friends (1935) is the main novel of Narayan which manages the little and guiltless children. In the present novel the plot is straightforward with different themes, for example, parents-child relationship, friendship, and orthodoxy and so forth. The characters of Swami, Sankar, Mani and Rajam present the sharp observation and information on human and child psychology of Narayan. The manners, by which childhood is socially developed, just as culturally and truly arranged, will clearly vary here and there. 'Swami and Friends' unmistakably outlines the unskilled statures of creative mind, from a child's perspective, in Narayan's universe of fiction.
