Casting Kings: Bards and Indian Modernity
Snodgrass, Jeffrey G. (Assistant Professor of Anthropology, Assistant Professor of Anthropology, Colorado State University)
Based on anthropological fieldwork in the Indian state of Rajasthan, this book explores the manner in which semi-nomadic performers known as Bhats understand, and subvert caste hierarchies. It demonstrates how the ability to cleverly rework lingering caste inequalities continues to form the basis for Bhat claims to dignity in contemporary India.
