Book Description
How do specific secular and religious ideologies—such as nationalism, neoliberalism, atheism, Pentecostalism, Tablighi Islam, and shamanism—gain popularity and when do they lose traction? To answer these questions, Mathijs Pelkmans critically examines the trajectories of a range of ideologies as they move into the post-Soviet frontier in Central Asia. Ethnographically rooted in the everyday life of a former mining town in southern Kyrgyzstan, Fragile Conviction shows how residents have dealt with the existential and epistemic crises that arose after the collapse of the Soviet Empire. Residents became enchanted by the truths of Muslim and Christian missionaries, embraced the teachings of neoliberal and nationalist ideologues, and were riveted by the visions of shamanic healers. But no matter how much enthusiasm and hope these ideas first engendered, the commitment to any of them rarely lasted very long.Pelkmans finds that there is an inverse relationship between the tenacity and the effervescence of collective ideas, between their strength to persist and their ability to trigger committed action. Introducing the concept of pulsation, he argues in Fragile Conviction that ideational power must be understood in relation to three aspects: the voicing of the idea, its tension with everyday reality, and its reverberation within groups of listeners. The conclusion that the power of conviction is rooted in the instability of sociocultural contexts is a message that has relevance far beyond urban Central Asia.

Book Description
Rural Kyrgyz have many traditions that appear biblical, causing an observer to ponder a link between the prophets and Central Asian tribes. Comparing Kyrgyzstan's national epic Manas with ancient scripture reinforces such a bond; especially obvious is the similarity between the tribal patriarch "Manasseh son of Jacob" and the Kyrgyz hero "Manas son of Jakyb." Many of the chapters in this book were essays presented at academic conferences in Kyrgyzstan. They were first published in the Kyrgyz language for a Central Asian mindset.

Book Description
This book applies phenomenological methodology to examine the transformations of messages as they pass from the mind to the linear world of human speech, and then back again. Rapid development of linguistic science in the second half of the 20th century, and cognitive science in the beginning of the 21st century has brought us through various stages of natural human language analysis and comprehension – from deep structures, transformational grammar and behaviorism to cognitive linguistics, theory of encapsulation, and mentalism. Thus, drawing upon new developments in cognitive science, philosophy and hermeneutics, the author reveals how to obtain the real vision of life lurking behind the spoken word. Applying methodology introduced by Edmund Husserl and developed by Martin Heidegger, the author examines how we can see the ‘living’ and dynamic essence of speech hidden in the world of linear linguistic strings and casual utterances. This uniquely researched work will be a valuable resource for students and scholars of cognitive stylistics, pragmatics and the psychology of language.

Book Description
How did the Vedic Indians think of life, consciousness, and personhood? How did they envisage man’s fate after death? Did some part of the person survive the death of the body and depart for the beyond? Is it possible to speak of a “soul” or “souls” in the context of Vedic tradition? This book sets out to answer these questions in a systematic manner, subjecting the relevant Vedic beliefs to a detailed chronological investigation. Special attention is given to the ways in which the early Indians’ answers to the above problems changed over time, with an early pluralism of soul-like concepts later giving way to the unified “self” of the Upaniṣads.

Book Description
In the heart of Asia, straddling the western Tien Shan mountain range, lies the former Soviet republic Kyrgyzstan. The country prides itself in an age old oral epic tradition that recounts the mighty deeds of the hero Manas. When explorers first encountered Manas performers in the late nineteenth century, they hailed their art as a true representation of the heroic age, and compared it to masterpieces such as the Kalevala and the Iliad. Today there are still many excellent performers who can keep their audiences spellbound. They are believed to draw their inspiration from the spirit of Manas himself. This book portrays the meaning of this huge work of art in Kyrgyz society. Based on extended periods of anthropological fieldwork between 1996 and 2000, it explores the calling of its performers, describes the transformations of the oral tradition in printed media and other forms of art, and examines its use as a key symbol for identity politics. It deals extensively with the impact of the Soviet period, during which Kyrgyzstan became an autonomous republic for the first time in history. The tremendous changes initiated during these years had far-reaching consequences for the transmission and reception of the Manas epic. The specific Soviet approach to ethnicity was also elementary in the decisions to assign the Manas epic the role of national symbol after 1991, when Kyrzygstan was thrown into the turnoil of a post-socialist existence.

Book Description
Zhenhui Liang, Weiguo Chen and Xu Zhang have done a great service to the study of oral epic poetry by translating Adil Jumaturdu’s and Tokon Isak’s detailed and comprehensive biography of Jusup Mamay (1918-2014), the great Kirghiz epic singer from Xinjiang. In this book, the reader learns how this “singer of tales” acquired his impressively large epic repertoire and becomes acquainted with the Kirghiz tradition of the Manas epic and epic cycle, in particular Jusup Mamay’s version, which comprises eight generations. The authors, native Kirghiz from Xinjiang, have had close contact with the singer over many years and offer unique insights into the mind and art of an exceptional epic singer-narrator. ---- Professor Karl Reichl (studying oral epic poetry at Bonn University) The Kirghiz heroic epic Manas boasts a history of around one thousand years. In the process of its development, generation after generation of singers have passed it down today by oral tradition. Jusup Mamay, one of the epic’s master singers, or manaschi, is renowned as the only performer in the world who was able to narrate eight generations of heroes from a single Kirghiz family, the epic’s namesake Manas chief among them. After years of surveys and interviews, the authors have assembled first-hand materials about Jusup Mamay to write a critical biography detailing the singer’s monumental talents and his great efforts in learning Manas. The biography elaborates on Jusup Mamay’s geographical and cultural environment, his apprenticeships under master manaschi, his passion for learning around 230,000-line epic by heart, his two marriages, his family, the features of his unique version of Manas, his many contributions to the inheritance of Kirghiz folk culture, and his influence both within his native China and across the globe. This book is a valuable contribution to the academic literature about the Manas epic and Kirghiz culture as well.

Book Description
The many adventures of the "epic" in modern times are fascinating topics in themselves. The Romantics claimed that every self-respecting nation should, at some time, have had one and they set out to reconstruct these epics for political as well as cultural reasons. Such epics represented earlier stages in the development of nation-states and in this modern world they were, for a long time, hard to appreciate. The introduction of tape recorders, however, brought the epic back in the limelight. It became fashionable for scholars to record long oral narratives, and to present them as long written poems that reflected deeply ingrained ideas. Because of this technology, the idea of the epic was revitalized. This volume presents critical analyses of epics in Sub-Saharan Africa, the former Soviet Union, South-East Asia, Medieval Europe, and America and discusses the process of revitalization, sometimes even invention, of epics in particular historical, political, and academic contexts. Jan Jansen is a member of the Department of Anthropology of the University of Leiden, Netherlands. Henk M.J. Maier is professor in the Department of Languages and Cultures of Southeast Asia and Oceania of the University of Leiden, Netherlands.
