Mainly they came to Assam to spread Christ religion. But they saw that the situation in Assan is not right at that time, and they faced many problems. They realized that if it was to spread religion in Assam, it would be possible only through the Assamese language. So, they tried to learn the Assamese language and started spreading religion through the Assamese language. Due to this they composed many texts, composition of grammer, dictionary etc. In the same was, the dead Assamese language gradually started coming alive. Objective: Through this paper we will mention about the contribution of missionary people in Assamese society. We will try to explain the social situation of Assam at that time and I will try to explain that in this debilitating situation, how the Assamese writer also supported them. Source: To explain this paper, we will take help of various texts and historical books also and will take the help of various journals, reference. Methodology: The sources of data, that are used in this study will be both Primary and secondary. The data will be acquired from various books, journals and articles. Analytical method in mainly used in this study. Main topic: According to the treaty of Yandaboo to be held in the year 1826, the British people came to Assam. Already the state of Assam was weakened by Mana. Mana in invaded Assam about seventeen times and due to this many Assamese people were found dead. British had done a complete loss of economics, policy of politics and Assamese literature and language. At the same time, Assam had the prevalence of Bengali language in addition to the Assamese language. On 1836 the Bengali Language was introduced in the office, court, school replacing the Assamese language in Assam. Meaning the state of Assam was completely broken. But when the Christian Missionaries people arrived in Assam on 1836, the Assamese language started becoming stronger. When Dr. Nathan Brown, Dr. Miles Bronson, ot cuttar, Nidhiram farwell, Eliza Brown, Robinson came to Assam to appease Christ and when they came to Assam they saw that Assam‟s language and literature was in crisis. In the first they began to learn the Assamese language because they had decided that it was only by learning the Assamese language that they would transmit the Christy religion. After learning the Assamese language, they started to writing articles, books in this language. Gradually the crisis Assamese language started coming alive. It was 1813 that according to Reverand carey‟s order Atmaram Sharma translated the Bible in Assamese language. Robinon Saheb was the first grammer writer on Assamese language which name was „A Grammer of Assamese language‟ (1839). Dr. Nathan Brown also wrote the „Grammatical notices of the Assamese language.‟ For the progress of Assamese language and in addition the Christion Missionary Dr. Brown also translated John Bunyan‟s „pilgrims progress‟ into Assamese‟ the name of the Assamese text was „Yatrikor Yatra‟. Christian Missionary used to collect the old book of Assam and light it in a new form. Through this ISSN: 2005-4238 IJAST 3719 Copyright ⓒ 2020 SERSC International Journal of Advanced Science and Technology Vol. 29, No. 4s, (2020), pp. 3719 - 3722 the progress of Assamese language started increasing. Dr. Brown gave a new light to the Assam history, chutiya History etc. His wife Eliza Brown also wrote some use full Assamese book for children. Like wise moral book, geography book, Maths book etc. Miles Bronson composed a dictionary in the assamese language. The dictionary contained approximately fourteen thousand Assamese words. Thus they worked a lot for the progress of Assamese language. Christion Missionaries A.K. Garmi also worked a lot for the progress of Assamese language. Garni came to America in 1874 and spread religion in Sivasagar Assam. Garni lived in Assam from i874 to 1907 and spread religion in the Assam and composed usefull articles. Garni translated the old testament book from Hibru to Assamese language, the name of the treatise is „Ancient rule.‟ Apart from this, 1905 Garni took out the monthly journal which name is „Dipti‟. Christion Missionaryes Nidhiuram farwel did a lot for progress of Assamese language. Nidhiram wrote the treatise of „Binoy Boson, Swargr Biworan, Narokon Biworan etc. Nidhiram translated the Indian Council act into Assamese in 1865. Basically Christian Missionaries did the followings for the progress and advancement of Assamese language— 1. Bengali language was opposed in Assamese literature. 2. Knowledge of western literature was given. 3. The simple people of Assam had given knowledge of the country and aboard. 4. Assamese language was made poewerful. 5. Christian Missionaries had given encouragement to Assamese writer. 6. Christian Missionaries had given impetus to the birth and progress of Assamese Magazine, paper etc. Thus, the Assamese language was prevalence on full speed. In Orunodoi period apart Christian Missionaries, some Assamese writer was also in it. The names of the Assamese writer was- Hem Chandra Barua, Gunabhiram Barua, Anandaram Dhekial Phukan for over eight years. In 1948, he published „Axomiya Loaran Mitra‟ on Orunodoi papar. At 1853 when Moffat mills came to inquiry Assam, Ananda Ram gave a beautiful analysis of the Economic situation of Assam. In 1855 he composed a treatise called „ A Few remarks on Assamese language‟in English. In the same way Hemchandra also raised his voice in favour of the progress and advancement of the Assamese language. In 1859 he wrote Assamese Grammer, in 1873 Aadipath, in 1886 „Axomiya Lorar Mitra‟, in 1892‟ phoraxoliya Abdidhan. His best work is a „Ham Kosh‟ it was published in 1900. He also wrote „Kaniyar Kirtan‟ and „Bahire Rang Shang bhitore Kowa Bhaturi‟. It‟s a comic drama. Through this he had established all the major problems of Assam. He criticize and satirise the Assamese society and thus he try to progress of the Assam‟s people. He was the editor of Assam news paper. He also wrote a treatise called „Assamese Marriage system.‟ Through this book he described the marriage system of Assamese society‟ the rules of marriage and all the practices of Assam society.Along with these people and with the Christian Missionaries‟ Gunabhiram also wrote for the progress of Assam society. In 1857 he published a drama which name is „Ram Nabami‟ and through this he try to describe about the misery of women in society. Through he made a process to remove all the wrong practices of Assamese society. Like this, Christian Missionaries and some Assamese writer formed new methods for the advancement of Assamese language and development of Literature. Christian people ISSN: 2005-4238 IJAST 3720 Copyright ⓒ 2020 SERSC International Journal of Advanced Science and Technology Vol. 29, No. 4s, (2020), pp. 3719 - 3722 practiced literature using the upper Assam spoken language. Thus the Christian Missionaries had to suffer a lot for the complete progress of Assamese language. We will always be grateful for them. In this way Christian missionaries reconstructed the Assamese language. In this struggle Anand Ram Dhekial Phukan, Hemchandra barua, Gunabhiram Barua had work very hard and this way they make powerful Assamese language. At the same time as Arunday some educated youth of Assam founded the Assamese Literary society. In 1888 this society was renamed as Axomiya Bhaka Unnoti Shadini Sabha. When these Christian missionaries went from village to village for the progress of Assamese language they came to face many problems. But they grew up by encroaching everything. It was written on the top page of the Arunaday is- “Orunodoi, A monthly magazine devoted to religion, science and general intelligence.” In this paper were many topics was written in prose. Through this Orunodoi paper we can get a group information about the Assam‟s economics, social policy, religious system, and the collective introduction of Assam. If that time those Christian missionaries did not work for the progress for Assam, then today the Bengali language would have become the state language. Just as some Assamese writers were accompanied by Christian missionaries, in the same way some Assamese writers were free from this influence. But they also did a lot for the progress of the Assamese language and literature. Some Assamese writer like Dutiram Hazarika, Dinanath Bezbaruah, Gopinath Chakraborty, Ragudev Goswami, Lalit Chandra Goswami did not have any connect with Orunodoi writers. Dutiram composed „Kali Bharat‟ in ancient times on the orders Kameshwar Singha. From this book, we get a historical account of Ahom. Dinanath Bezbaruah from Sivasagar also composed „Aishwarya Sanghita‟ and „Utkal Khanda‟. Both of these texts have based on religions. Ragudev Goswami, who lives in the Nagaon also wrote „Hitopadesh‟ and Gopinath Chakraborty of Kamrupa wrote „Radha Kalank Bhanjan.‟ Lalit Chandra Goswami a resident of Nalbari, also wrote „Keli Rahashya‟ this text was based on Radha Krishna‟s story‟ That is, it is a religious book. In the same way, that time Assamese or non Assamese writer wrote a lot of books to uplift the Assamese language. But at the same time, there was such a negative site of Assamese language that the description or alphabet of Assamese language was not used properly. Because Christian missionaries had only primary education in Assamese language and they could not able to learn the correct form Assamese alphabet. But they brought the dead Assamese language alive. For the progress of the Assamese language Christian missionaries used to provide primary education in Assamese language to the Assamese child by establishing schools at different places and they provided education also.

    International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR) ISSN: 2319-7064 Impact Factor (2018): 7.426 Female Participation in Folk Music of Assam - A Study on Bihugeet in Guwahati (GMA), Assam Palme Borthakur1, Bhaben Ch. Kalita2 1Department of Earth Science, University of Science and Technology, Meghalaya, India 2Professor, Department of Earth Science, University of Science and Technology, Meghalaya, India Abstract: Songs, instruments and dance- the collaboration of these three ingredients makes the music of any region or society. Folk music is one of the integral facet of culture which also poses all the essentials of music. The instruments used in folk music are divided into four halves-taat (string instruments), aanodha(instruments covered with membrane), Ghana (solid or the musical instruments which struck against one another) and sushir(wind instruments)(Sharma,1996). Out of these four, Ghana and sushirvadyas are being preferred to be played by female artists. Ghana vadyas include instruments like taal,junuka etc. and sushirvadyas include instruments that can be played by blowing air from the mouth like flute,gogona, hkhutuli etc. Women being the most essential part of the society are also involved in the process of shaping up the culture of a region. In the society of Assam since ancient times till date women plays a vital role in the folk music that is bihugeet. At times Assamese women in groups used to celebrate bihu in open spaces or within forest areas or under big trees where entry of men was totally prohibited and during this exclusive celebration the women used to play aforesaid instruments and sing bihu songs describing their life,youth and relation with the environment.

IN St EDUCATION wV", C BY •V/ SAYEEDUL HAQUE s^^ ^ 1^' UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF PROF. ALI AHMAD DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 2009 ^&. ABSTRACT Title of the study: "Contribution of Christian Missionaries Towards Development of Secondary Education in Assam Since Independence" Education is the core of all religions, because it prepares the heathen mind for the proper understanding and acceptance of the supremacy of his Creator. Thus, acquisition of Knowledge and learning is considered as an act of salvation in Christianity. The revelation in Bible clearly indicates that the Mission of Prophet of Christianity, Jesus Christ, is to teach his people about the tenets of Christianity and to show them the true light of God. As a true follower of Christ, it becomes the duty of every Christian to act as a Missionary of Christianity. The Missionaries took educational enterprise because they saw it as one of the most effective means of evangelization. In India, the European Missionaries were regarded as the pioneers of western education, who arrived in the country in the last phase of the fifteenth century A.D. The Portuguese Missionaries were the first, who initiated the modem system of education in India, when St. Xavier started a University near Bombay in 1575 A.D. Gradually, other Europeans such as the Dutch, the Danes, the French and the English started their educational efforts.

  • The American Baptist Christians in North-East India
    Facets of the North-east The American Baptist Christians in North-east India Amrit Kr Goldsmith* The Britishers entered Assam and established their rule in the early years of the 19th century. Soon after, the different Christian denominations also gradually established their outposts and started their work. Their main objective, no doubt, was to spread their religion. But they also undertook to spread literacy, render medical aid, open schools and other educational institutions, etc. Out of all denominations which worked in the North- eastern region, the American Baptists were able to spread out in many parts. Even today the followers of the American Baptist denomination form the majority of Christians in the region. The author of this article, Shri Amrit Kumar Goldsmith is the regional head of CASA (Church’s Auxiliary for Social Action). In answer to our request, he undertook to study old records and has come out with the present article. Besides describing the life and services of some of the highly dedicated missionaries, he also narrates about the work that began in the past and which is continuing till date. It may be noted that out of the seven states of the North-eastern region, three states namely, Nagaland, Meghalaya and Mizoram are predominantly Christian. There is the presence of Christian mission work in all the other states including Assam. We have four major religions in the North-east, namely Hinduism, Islam, Christianity and Buddhism. Any student of the affairs of the region cannot afford to miss studying the impact of these religions and the influence they have in the region.

Terwiel Recreating the past; Revivalism in Northeastern India In: Bijdragen tot de Taal-, Land- en Volkenkunde 152 (1996), no: 2, Leiden, 275-292 This PDF-file was downloaded from http://www.kitlv-journals.nl Downloaded from Brill.com09/28/2021 12:30:10PM via free access BJ. TERWIEL Recreating the Past Revivalism in Northeastern India Introduction In this article I would like to introduce the problems of reviving a ritual once it has disappeared without a trace, posing the modern actors an inter- esting set of dilemmas. The paper centres upon the example of the Ahom, an ethnic group in Northeast India which over the past centuries has lost trace almost completely of the culture of its Southeast Asian forebears. During the past fifteen years I have witnessed and personally played a minor, essentially indirect, role in the blossoming of a revivalist movement among the people of Ahom descent. It is a movement that has taken root in the face of what seem to be almost overwhelming odds. Tai-speaking peoples Tai-speaking peoples form the most numerous and most widely spread peoples in Mainland Southeast Asia. They first became recognizable as such in the first millennium A.D. in what is now Kuangsi Province in Southern China. In the middle of the eleventh century they became embroiled in a long and fierce war with the Chinese, which ended in a resounding defeat of the Tais. Hereupon many Tais suddenly began migrating southwards and south-westwards into the region of Mainland Southeast Asia. They fanned out rapidly, and within a few hundred years had conquered most of the valley regions where they are now found: in northern Vietnam, in Laos, in all of Thailand, in Northern Myanmar, in the Chinese province of Yunnan, and in Northeastern India.

  • Empire's Garden: Assam and the Making of India
    A book in the series Radical Perspectives a radical history review book series Series editors: Daniel J. Walkowitz, New York University Barbara Weinstein, New York University History, as radical historians have long observed, cannot be severed from authorial subjectivity, indeed from politics. Political concerns animate the questions we ask, the subjects on which we write. For over thirty years the Radical History Review has led in nurturing and advancing politically engaged historical research. Radical Perspec- tives seeks to further the journal’s mission: any author wishing to be in the series makes a self-conscious decision to associate her or his work with a radical perspective. To be sure, many of us are currently struggling with the issue of what it means to be a radical historian in the early twenty-first century, and this series is intended to provide some signposts for what we would judge to be radical history. It will o√er innovative ways of telling stories from multiple perspectives; comparative, transnational, and global histories that transcend con- ventional boundaries of region and nation; works that elaborate on the implications of the postcolonial move to ‘‘provincialize Eu- rope’’; studies of the public in and of the past, including those that consider the commodification of the past; histories that explore the intersection of identities such as gender, race, class and sexuality with an eye to their political implications and complications. Above all, this book series seeks to create an important intellectual space and discursive community to explore the very issue of what con- stitutes radical history. Within this context, some of the books pub- lished in the series may privilege alternative and oppositional politi- cal cultures, but all will be concerned with the way power is con- stituted, contested, used, and abused.

  • Historiography of the Formation of Assamese Identity: a Review
    Peace and Democracy in South Asia, Volume 2, Numbers 1 & 2, 2006. HISTORIOGRAPHY OF THE FORMATION OF ASSAMESE IDENTITY: A REVIEW MADHUMITA SENGUPTA A thematic review of Planter Raj to Swaraj: Freedom Struggle and Electoral Politics in Assam, 1826-1947 by A. Guha; Assam: A Burning Question by H. Gohain; Roots of Ethnic Conflict: Nationality Questions in North East India by S. Nag; Social Tensions in Assam Middle Class Politics by A.K. Baruah; and India Against Itself: Assam and the Politics of Identity by S. Baruah. Introduction Assam, tucked away in the Northeast corner of India is a state that has been locked for the last few years in a bloody struggle between ‘insurgents’ and the state as the architect of counter-insurgency operations. This may not come as a surprise, for Assam is not the only insurgency-ridden state in this country. But what makes Assam special and at the same time vulnerable is its geographical location in a region that is surrounded by international borders on three sides. It makes sense therefore to trace the roots of this ‘ethnic’ turmoil by taking a look at how an Assamese identity came to be imagined here in the nineteenth century. The history of Assamese identity is a rather interesting one for the very reason that it is at once a story of the formation and transformation of the community. It has been remarked by one author (Misra 2001) that what has been happening in Assam over the past few decades in the matter of the widening of the parameters of the Assamese nationality as a result of swift demographic change, may be said to be unique not only in relation to the other Peace and Democracy in South Asia, Volume 2, Numbers 1 & 2, 2006.
