Laughing About Caste an Analysis of How Caste Considerations Find Representation in the Genre of English Stand- up Comedy on the Internet in India
Connections: A Journal of Language, Media and Culture Laughing About Caste An analysis of how caste considerations find representation in the genre of English stand- up comedy on the internet in India Shreyashi Ganguly1 1 Department of Sociology, University of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The literature on humour in India has largely evaded the question of how humour intersects with caste stratification. Not much has been written about humour’s potential to discriminate against certain caste groups of the lower social order. Similarly, the traditional media in India has been silent about the issue of caste following which, social media has emerged as the ‘counter publics’ where caste identity can be collectively and freely expressed. Taking the now flourishing brand of English stand-up comedy on the Internet in India as an entry point, this study investigates if the symbolic articulation of caste identities is at all made possible in this genre. Using a combination of discourse analysis and social media analysis, to examine the jokes produced in stand-up shows, in this paper I try to gauge how frequently, and in what ways, caste finds mention in these performances on the Internet. I find that caste identity, and the associated discrimination, are hardly evoked in the comedians’ discourse. And when spoken about, they are often done so in a disparaging light. I conclude this paper by illuminating the ways in which this disparaging humour bolsters caste discrimination, sustains stereotypes and, in the process, conditions the normalized exclusion of lower-caste groupings from the public sphere. -
1St International Folk Music Film Festival Catalogue 2011
Festival Dedications Music Museum of Nepal is honored to dedicate each day of the 3- day festival to a different accomplished foreign musicologist for his/her important work on Nepalese folk music culture. The primary dedication will be to Arnold A. Bake, a Netherlander, who could be said to be the father of Nepalese folk music documentary films. His 1931 audio and cine film recordings were the first ever made. Bake shout some 2500 ft of cine film during his 1931 research visit to Nepal and a further 3000 ft when he returned in 1955/6. It is now 800 yrs since Bake’s first visit to Nepal when interestingly he lodged at the Royal Kathmandu Guesthouse located next to Mahadev Bahal in Tirpureshwor where Music Museum of Nepal is now housed; all his 1931 recordings were made in the garden of the guest house, which lies between the two buildings. We hope that this dedication will be a fitting tribute to the man and his work. Further dedications will be to the French ethnomusicologist Mireille Helffer and to Carol Tinggy from UK who have both graciously accepted. Mirielle Helffer’s important early ethnomusicological research work, particularly on the music culture of the Gaine musicians caste, was carried out in Nepal in 1960’s and her acclaimed L.P. record ‘Castes de Musiciens au Nepal’ published by Musee de I’Homme, 1969 did much to popularize Nepalese folk music and bring it to the attention of the world. Carol Tingey catalogued Bakes sound records for her Master’s thesis in Judges' Profile 1985, Making them much more Deepa Gautam accessible, and went on to complete field research on the Panchai baja of Deepa Gautam (Masters in Humanities and Sociology) is Director Nepal for her PhD thesis (1990) and a of the Programme Division of Nepal Television, the state-run TV concurrent fellowship with the Nepal station of Nepal. -

GSJ: Volume 7, Issue 12, December 2019 ISSN 2320-9186 697 GSJ: Volume 7, Issue 12, December 2019, Online: ISSN 2320-9186 www.globalscientificjournal.com Remarks on Tragic Songs of Lahure Life: Then and Now Anthropology Bishnu Prasad Dahal, Ph. D. Patan Multiple Campus, Patan Dhoka Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu, Nepal Abstract The main purpose of this study is to investigate the different aspects of the tragic songs on life of Nepal. Emigration is increasing day by day in Nepal to seek the opportunities primarily economic to sustain their life. Symbolic/ interpretative theories are deeply observed to analyze my research questions. The main leading questions are: what is Lahure culture? When was it begun in Nepal? What are the impacts of this culture in Nepal then and now? What are the recent trends on it? Audience and viewer can feel its music, sounds, lyrics, rhythms and way of expressions. Every, word, lyrics and expression has its own senses while performing the song performance. This study focused on how these songs are the sources of human sentiments, feeling, emotions in terms of explaining social phenomena, events, social interactions and human sentiments through songs. It is the representative expression of all over the country. Two songs are selected as sample analysis purposively. The content of their lyrics analysis along with voices of lyricist, music composer and singers are also used to verify the message of the songs. Both etic and emic modes of analysis are incorporated to visualized the meanings of songs juxtaposed to old one and recently popular in care of describing Lahure life. -
Dukha, Viraha, and Nostalgia in Nepali Lok Dohori Songs
DRAFT – WORK IN PROGRESS. DO NOT CITE WITHOUT PERMISSION. Anna Stirr Mediating the migrant experience: dukha, viraha, and nostalgia in Nepali Lok Dohori songs Pardeśaimā gayo din rundā, Hā̃sau khelau maukāmā bheṭ hudā. Paschim purvako Purvako, aba pheri bhet kahile hola ra duita dhurvako? Days abroad passed in weeping, Let’s laugh and play, when we have the opportunity to meet. Of west and east Of the east, now when will we meet again, we of the two poles? In the couplet above, the singer has returned home to her village in Gorkha district after a long absence, and is beginning to sing about the experience of leaving and returning. Both tears and laughter characterize this experience, tears while away, laughter upon returning – or at least, the hope that those around her will want to enjoy themselves while she is with them. The singer here, Maya Gurung, is both a rural-urban migrant and a woman returning to her natal home (maita), so she has at her disposal two venerable narrative song traditions, of migration in general and of women’s separation from their natal families, to draw from in forming her lyrical couplets. She will make references to the places around her, aspects of the natural world and those with social importance, and the quirks of the relatives who have come down to meet her and listen to her sing. A professional lok dohori singer herself, with a broad knowledge of tunes from various parts of the country, she is also drawing on current commercial lok dohori songs, here singing a song with a melody sourced far from her home village, musically as well as lyrically emphasizing the distance she finds herself from a place that feels like home. -
