The festivals of the four months (Caturmasa) differ from other celebrations held in the Kathmandu Valley (Nepal) in their overriding concern with death. These sacrificial feasts deal with the enigma of life and death in the Hindu-Buddhist context of South Asia. As collective and supralocal events, the Caturmasa festivals cross the border between the northern and southern parts of Kathmandu, involving the entire town as well as the former king of Nepal, who was both sacrificer and victim. The two main themes of these celebrations of death are sacrifice and kingship. Bert van den Hoek (1951-2001) had undertaken more than twenty years of research in South Asia before his untimely death caused by a road accident in Mumbai (India). At the time, he was conducting fieldwork aimed at composing a comprehensive scholarly analysis entitled The Ritual Structure of Kathmandu in which many other Newar festivals, rituals and myths were to be included. Caturmasa: Celebrations of Death in Kathmandu, Nepal will appeal to all those interested in South Asian, particularly Nepalese culture, society and rituals.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This volume presents an array of different case studies which take as primary material data sourced from the NOW ('New and Old Worlds') database of fossil mammals.The NOW database was one of the very first large paleobiological databases, and since 1996 it has been expanded from including mainly Neogene European land mammals to cover the entire Cenozoic at a global scale.In the last two decades the number of works that are based in the use of huge databases to explore ecological and evolutionary questions has increased exponentially, and eventhough the importance of big data in paleobiological research has been outlined in selected chapters of general works, no volume has appeared before this one which solely focuses on the databases as a primary source in reconstructing the past.The purpose of this book is to provide an illustrative volume showing the importance of big data in paleobiological research, and presenting a broad array of unpublished examples and case studies. Thebook is mainly aimed to professional palaeobiologists working with Cenozoic land mammals, butthe scope of the book is broad enough to fit the interest for evolutionary biologists, paleoclimatologists and paleoecologists.The volume is divided in four parts. The first part includes two chapters on the development of large paleobiological databases, providing a first-hand account on the logic and the functioning of these databases. This is a much-needed perspective which is ignored by most researchers and users of such databases and, even if centered in the NOW database, the lessons that can be learned from this part can be extended to other examples. After this introductory part, the body of the book follows and is divided into three parts: patterns in regional faunas; large scale patterns and processes; and ecological, biogeographical and evolutionary patterns of key taxa. Each chapter is written by well-known specialists in the field, withsome participation of members of the NOW advisory board. The array of selected mammal taxa ranges from carnivores, equids, ruminants and rodents to the genus Homo. The topics studied also include the diversification and radiation of major clades, large-scale paleobiogeographical patterns, the evolution of ecomorphological patterns and paleobiological problems such as evolution of body size or species longevity. In most cases the results are discussed in relation to protracted environmental or paleogeographic changes.…
