Articles liés à The People of India, Vol. 4 (Classic Reprint)
Synopsis
This book captures the diverse peoples, beliefs, and practices of India as seen through the lens of hundreds of photographs. The author traveled extensively throughout the country, capturing portraits of individuals from all walks of life. Alongside these images are detailed descriptions of their clothing, customs, and beliefs, as well as the social and religious structures they live within. From the lowest to the highest social strata, this book provides a fascinating insight into the peoples of India. There are images of ascetics, priests, farmers, beggars, dancers, merchants, princes, and many others. In some cases, the images include multiple figures, providing snapshots of group activities and family structures. The author also discusses the role of the British Empire in India, and the ways in which many Indian traditions have been affected - sometimes irrevocably - by colonization. Collectively, the images and descriptions provide a comprehensive analysis of the many peoples of India, and will appeal to historians, anthropologists, and tourists alike.
