Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. In Amma's Healing Room is a compelling study of the life and thought of a female Muslim spiritual healer in Hyderabad, South India. Joyce Burkhalter Flueckiger describes Amma's practice as a form of vernacular Islam arising in a particular locality, one in which the boundaries between Islam, Hinduism, and Christianity are fluid. In the "healing room," Amma meets a diverse clientele that includes men and women, Muslim, Hindu, and Christian, of varied social backgrounds, who bring a wide range of physical, social, and psychological afflictions. Flueckiger collaborated closely with Amma and relates to her at different moments as daughter, disciple, and researcher. The result is a work of insight and compassion that challenges widely held views of religion and gender in India and reveals the creativity of a tradition often portrayed by Muslims and non-Muslims alike as singular and monolithic.…

Flueckiger, Joyce Burkhalter. Gender and genre in the folklore of middle India. Ithaca: Cornell University Press, 1996, , PAPERBACK, very good. Joyce Burkhalter Flueckiger here analyzes six representative Indian folklore genres from a single regional repertoire to show the influence of their intertextual relations on the composition and interpretation of artistic performance. Placing special emphasis on women's rituals, she looks at the relationship between the framework and organization of indigenous genres and the reception of folklore performance. Flueckiger shows how, in the Chhattisgarh region of India, folklore genres are categorized primarily in terms of the community to which a tradition "belongs." What does it mean, she asks, for a particular performance tradition to be identified with unmarried girls, tribal castes, or the region itself? What are the interpretive frames drawn by this system of genre identification? And what are the resulting intertextual relationships? Exploring such questions, Flueckiger relies on the indigenous articulation, gathered through oral commentary, of the Chhattisgarh repertoire and its principles of organization. A significant feature of this system is the absence of discrimination between ritual and verbal traditions. Flueckiger's analysis suggests that ritual and verbal traditions are inherent to both a genre and its interpretation. The regional repertoire under examination presents a strikingly female-centered world. Female performers and characters are active and articulate, and frequently challenge or defy expectations of gender. Men also confound traditional gender roles. Flueckiger includes the translations of two full performance texts of narratives sung by female and male storytellers respectively. Joyce Burkhalter Flueckiger is Assistant Professor of Religion at Emory University. 9780801483448 ISBN 0801483441.…
