Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

"Susan Seizer's moving and unique perspective on the fate of popular cultural practices in an age and society dominated by the norms and prescriptions of bourgeois modernity makes her work important and insightful not just for scholars of South Asia but for all those who are interested in the general problematic of popular culture, performance traditions, and modernity globally."--Sumathi Ramaswamy, author of "The Lost Land of Lemuria: Fabulous Geographies, Catastrophic Histories" "Susan Seizer presents rich and intriguing material about a dramatic performance tradition at the same time that she provides smart, insightful, and sophisticated interpretations linking it to wider discussions. "Stigmas of the Tamil Stage" deserves to be read, discussed, and used to further debates in many fields of study."--Paula Richman, editor of "Many Ramayanas: The Diversity of a Narrative Tradition in South Asia"
