Based on many visits to the area over 25 years, Ganguli surveys the many art forms of the Naga people living in the mountains and forests of northeastern India, many of which retain elements of their head-hunting and ritual past. Among the genres are log drums, stone heads, weapons, singing and dancing, and textile designs. Richly illustrated in color and black and white. Includes a short glossary without pronunciation. No index. Available from International Science Publisher, 52 LaBombard Road, N., Lebanon, NH 03766. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

The focus of this comprehensive work is the aesthetics and the decryption of the language of the textiles of the Nagas, a group of tribal local cultures in the north-east of India and the north-west of Burma. For more than ten years, anthropologist Marion Wettstein has systematically been drawing the traditional fabrics, and researching their design, production techniques, meaning and contemporary transposition into fashion. More than 60 color pencil drawings and 180 watercolors on the morphology of the textile samples are considered by the author to be not just an artistic translation but in particular visual argumentation. While the work shows how the textile patterns are laden with meaning of a complex system of status and social structure, it also illuminates what is understood by these concepts in the context of the Nagas and to what extent they are also constructs of colonial and scientific intervention.
