Veena Das examines case studies including the extreme violence of the Partition of India in 1947 and the massacre of Sikhs in 1984 after the assassination of then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. In a major departure from much anthropological inquiry, Das asks how this violence has entered "the recesses of the ordinary" instead of viewing it as an interruption of life to which we simply bear witness. Das engages with anthropological work on collective violence, rumor, sectarian conflict, new kinship, and state and bureaucracy as she embarks on a wide-ranging exploration of the relations among violence, gender, and subjectivity. Weaving anthropological and philosophical reflections on the ordinary into her analysis, Das points toward a new way of interpreting violence in societies and cultures around the globe. The book will be indispensable reading across disciplinary boundaries as we strive to better understand violence, especially as it is perpetrated against women. 606 $aRiots$zIndia$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aSikhs$xCrimes against$zIndia 606 $aSuffering$zIndia 606 $aViolence$zIndia 607 $aIndia$xHistory$yPartition, 1947 607 $aIndia$xPolitics and government 607 $aIndia$xSocial conditions 607 $aIndia$xSocial life and customs 615 0$aRiots$xHistory 615 0$aSikhs$xCrimes against 615 0$aSuffering 615 0$aViolence 676 $a303.60954 700 $aDas$b Veena$0696295 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911102845803321 996 $aLife and words$91379776 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02804nam 2200685 a 450 001 9911142977503321 005 20260415134619.0 010 $a9783111404226 010 $a3111404226 024 7 $a10.1515/9783111404226 035 $a(CKB)2670000000235621 035 $a(EBL)3040764 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000625616 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11380367 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000625616 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10615133 035 $a(PQKB)10994076 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3040764 035 $a(WaSeSS)Ind00019313 035 $a(DE-B1597)57953 035 $a(OCoLC)1049611164 035 $a(OCoLC)873018957 035 $a(OCoLC)979592744 035 $a(DE-B1597)9783111404226 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3040764 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10590094 035 $a(Perlego)654830 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000235621 100 $a19830630h19821981 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn#---|u||u 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aPhonetic feature definitions $etheir integration into phonology and their relation to speech : a case study of the feature NASAL /$fPieter van Reenen 205 $aReprint 2011 210 $aDordrecht, Holland ;$aCinnaminson, N.J. $cForis Publications$d1982, c1981 215 $a1 online resource (208 p.) 225 0 $aGeneral linguistics 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 0 $a9783111040752 311 0 $a3111040755 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 327 $tFront matter --$tAcknowledgement --$tIntroduction --$tCHAPTER 1 The framework in SPE and some criticism --$tCHAPTER2 Modifications and extensions of the SPE framework --$tCHAPTER 3 The feature NASAL --$tCHAPTER 4 The appropriateness of the definition of the feature NASAL --$tCHAPTER 5 A survey of data on nasality --$tCHAPTER 6 The internal structure of oral and nasal vowels in various environments --$tCHAPTER7 Height in oral and nasal vowels --$tCHAPTER 8 Nasal consonants and their relation to vowels --$tRetrospect --$tAppendix 1 --$tAppendix 2 --$tAppendix 3 --$tAppendix 4 --$tAppendix 5 --$tBibliography 330 $aNo detailed description available for "Phonetic Feature Definitions". 606 $aDistinctive features (Linguistics) 606 $aNasality (Phonetics) 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xPhonology 615 0$aDistinctive features (Linguistics) 615 0$aNasality (Phonetics) 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xPhonology. 676 $a414 700 $aReenen$b Pieter Th. van$0183009 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911142977503321 996 $aPhonetic feature definitions$91260412 997 $aUNINA
