Product Information

Constrained by traditions restricting their movements and speech, the Maithil women of Nepal and India have long explored individual and collective life experiences by sharing stories with one another. Sometimes fantastical, sometimes including a kind of magical realism, these tales allow women to build community through a deeply personal and ......

Reviews
"Clearly a labor of love, and so welcome a feast of tales... Maithil Women's Tales commendably forges an honest balance between pointing to oppressive gendered circumstances and celebrating women's diverse strategies to attain some kind of agency, not only in the story worlds, but in their everyday lives."-- Western Folklore, "Davis provides a useful contextual analysis of Maithil folktales as told by the women who live along a border zone between India and Nepal. In her reader-friendly analysis she demonstrates that stories often have lives of their own, illuminating not only the nature of the cosmos, but also the relationship between the self and the worlds in which we live. The study provides valuable data on a region and narrative tradition understudied in the scholarly literature on South Asia." --Frank J. Korom, author of South Asian Folklore: A Handbook, "Davis provides a useful contextual analysis of Maithil folktales as told by the women who live along a border zone between India and Nepal. In her reader-friendly analysis she demonstrates that stories often have lives of their own, illuminating not only the nature of the cosmos, but also the relationship between the self and the worlds in which we live. The study provides valuable data on a region and narrative tradition understudied in the scholarly literature on South Asia."--Frank J. Korom, author of South Asian Folklore: A Handbook, "Davis's engagement with the tales related to Maithil women provides a counterpoint to the usual engagement with their Mithila paintings, the better known of Maithil women's expressive arts. Here we also learn not only the tales, but Maithil women's interpretations of them, not only in oral comments but in newly created paintings that highlight what they think are the key components of these tales. A must read for scholars of South Asian oral traditions and a major addition to women's expressive traditions more generally."--Susan S. Wadley, author of Wife, Mother, Widow: Exploring Women's Lives in Northern India, "Davis's engagement with the tales related to Maithil women provides a counterpoint to the usual engagement with their Mithila paintings, the better known of Maithil women's expressive arts. Here we also learn not only the tales, but Maithil women's interpretations of them, not only in oral comments but in newly created paintings that highlight what they think are the key components of these tales.

Maithil Women's Tales commendably forges an honest balance between pointing to oppressive gendered circumstances and celebrating women's diverse strategies to attain some kind of agency, not only in the story worlds, but in their everyday lives."-- Western Folklore  , "Davis creates a momentous conversation between herself, her storytellers, and her audience. The part of the brain that enjoys a good story looks forward to getting lost in the next episode, while the social scientist can still pause between stories to wrestle with Davis over the deeper meanings of the plot and characterization... This book is an incredibly creative combination of intriguing story and extensive ethnographic research that serves both as personal entertainment and as an addition to the social science of folkloric studies. In a world where primary orality and secondary orality are ever colliding, stories--and stories about stories--have become the common language."-- Journal of Folklore Research, "This well-grounded, thoroughly researched study should appeal to a wide audience interested in oral narrative performance and interpretation, not only in South Asia, but more generally in disciplines ranging from folklore and cultural anthropology to narrative theory and gender studies. It shows convincingly how traditional folktales told by Maithil women of Nepal can mount socially effective critiques as resistance to patriarchal social principles that otherwise marginalize these women. It offers much for readers with interest in the dynamics of gender, in oral narrative performance and strategies of its interpretation in social context." --Margaret Mills, co-editor of South Asian Folklore: An Encyclopedia, "This well-grounded, thoroughly researched study should appeal to a wide audience interested in oral narrative performance and interpretation, not only in South Asia, but more generally in disciplines ranging from folklore and cultural anthropology to narrative theory and gender studies. It shows convincingly how traditional folktales told by Maithil women of Nepal can mount socially effective critiques as resistance to patriarchal social principles that otherwise marginalize these women. It offers much for readers with interest in the dynamics of gender, in oral narrative performance and strategies of its interpretation in social context."--Margaret Mills, co-editor of South Asian Folklore: An Encyclopedia "The most vaulable aspect of Davis' book is what she hopes it will deliver: attention to women's narrative and expressive agency when life circumstances and societal constraints disallow the free play of that creativity. . . . Written most accessibly, Maithil Women's Tales would work well in undergraduate and graduate courses on Hinduism, gender, narrative, and Himalayan cultures."-- Journal of American Folklore, ''Davis provides a useful contextual analysis of Maithil folktales as told by the women who live along a border zone between India and Nepal. In her reader-friendly analysis she demonstrates that stories often have lives of their own, illuminating not only the nature of the cosmos, but also the relationship between the self and the worlds in which we live.
