Recasting Folk In The Himalayas : Indian Music, Media, and Social Mobility.

Fiol, Stefan.

(Folklore Studies In A Multicultural World)

Univ. Illinois Press  ©2017



Colonialist, nationalist, and regionalist ideologies have profoundly influenced folk music and related musical practices among the Garhwali and Kumaoni of Uttarakhand. Stefan Fiol blends historical and ethnographic approaches to unlock these influences and explore a paradox: how the folk designation can alternately identify a universal stage of humanity, or denote alterity and subordination.
