Banjara Lambanis: Their Art and Literature

Product Description

The present book is a laudable attempt to study the folk literature and folk arts of the Banjara - Lambanis, one of the original tribes of 'real' India.

In this book he establishes " a realm of study in which one could spend a lifetime with pleasure", mapping the whole world of Banjara - Lambanis' oral tradition. So this book is highly useful to the academics and interesting to the laymen.
