We find ourselves entwined in the elaborate stories of Madhubani Paintings, the ageless appeal of Pashmina Shawls, the delicate craftsmanship of Nirmal Toys, and the rustic beauty of Bamboo Handicrafts as we set out on this adventure. Every chapter serves as a window into the generations-old workmanship, demonstrating the tenacity and inventiveness of Indian craftspeople. We extend an invitation to readers to journey through the historical passages described in the introduction of this book, where Bidriware gleams as a brilliant Deccan heritage and Blue Pottery reflects the cultural interchange along old trade routes.

Crafting 'The Indian'
Author: Petra Tjitske Kalshoven
Publisher: Berghahn Books
ISBN: 0857453459
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
In Europe, Indian hobbyism, or Indianism, has developed out of a strong fascination with Native American life in the 18th and 19th centuries. “Indian hobbyists” dress in homemade replicas of clothing, craft museum-quality replicas of artifacts, meet in fields dotted with tepees and reenact aspects of North American Indian lifeworlds, using ethnographies, travel diaries, and museum collections as resources. Grounded in fieldwork set among networks of Indian hobbyists in Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, and the Czech Republic, this ethnography analyzes this contemporary practice of serious leisure with respect to the general human desire for play, metaphor, and allusion. It provides insights into the increasing popularity of reenactment practices as they relate to a deeper understanding of human perception, imagination, and creativity.
