Cultural politics of popular performances: the structure and representation of the Odia Jatra
Chhotaray, Sharmila
Edition: Delhi
₹ 1195.00
Title in ENGLISH : This book explores how, as a consequence of modernity, the hybridization of living theatre forms like jatra, allows `authentic' folk traditions to not only survive but flourish by taking on new shapes without losing their traditional identity. The evolution of jatra from folk theatre in the premodern era to popular/mass theatre in modern Odisha has led to it attaining a dominant position in the entertainment industry.
