Book Description
'In which lifetime, in which bazaar did your hand let go of mine? Now I map the lines in the palms of strangers, to find a way back to yours.' "Nandani Sen Mehra's collection of poems is a hypnotic exploration of what lies within" - GULZAR This is Nandini Sen Mehra’s debut collection of poems. Striking yet subtle, the hundred poems in this collection traverse the terrain of life, love, suffering and existence. Nandini explores many textures of thought – from the ordinary to the sublime and from the mundane to the exhilarating – through a refreshing and perceptive gaze. The poems are a memorable journey through the heart, mind and spirit as they explore worlds within and without. In this collection are poems of love in its many shades, of nature, of people and places the poet has known as well as poems that seek to understand the paradoxical human condition through curious eyes, often turned inwards. With an easy readability and a beguiling simplicity of style, this collection of poetry holds appeal far beyond the confines of a narrow literary world and can serve as a trusted companion and friend to many, as they journey through the vicissitudes of their own lives. The inimitable Gulzar has written the Foreword for Whorls Within and has called the book ‘a hypnotic exploration of worlds within.’

Exploring Ancient Textiles
Author: Alistair Dickey
Publisher: Oxbow Books
ISBN: 178925728X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
Over the past 30 years, research on archaeological textiles has developed into an important field of scientific study. It has greatly benefited from interdisciplinary approaches, which combine the application of advanced technological knowledge to ethnographic, textual and experimental investigations. In exploring textiles and textile processing (such as production and exchange) in ancient societies, archaeologists with different types and quality of data have shared their knowledge, thus contributing to well-established methodology. In this book, the papers highlight how researchers have been challenged to adapt or modify these traditional and more recently developed analytical methods to enable extraction of comparable data from often recalcitrant assemblages. Furthermore, they have applied new perspectives and approaches to extend the focus on less investigated aspects and artefacts. The chapters embrace a broad geographical and chronological area, ranging from South America and Europe to Africa, and from the 11th millennium BC to the 1st millennium AD. Methodological considerations are explored through the medium of three different themes focusing on tools, textiles and fibres, and culture and identity. This volume constitutes a reflection on the status of current methodology and its applicability within the wider textile field. Moreover, it drives forward the methodological debates around textile research to generate new and stimulating conversations about the future of textile archaeology.
