The essays in this volume address theoretical and ethnographic issues concerning oral traditions and women's speech in diverse South Asian communities in north and south India and Nepal, situated in Hindu, Muslim and Buddhist milieus. The contributors discuss a complex range of questions concerning the relation between women's speech and those cultural traditions and social practices that partly structure their lives. |
