North East India: Literary and Cultural Perspectives (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789392459603)

North East India with its stunning physical landscapes, arresting beauty and lively cultural variation is an abode of countless tribes, ethnic groups and communities. It is a region comprising eight states Sikkim, Assam, Meghalaya, Tripura, Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur, Mizoram and Nagaland. Populated with diverse races and communities, each state presents social, religious and cultural heterogeneity. Still one cannot deny even after linguistic and religious multeities, North East India presents unity in diversity resulting from cultural assimilation and accommodation over a long period of time. Festivals, mostly agrarian associated with cultivation and farming, are celebrated with rich and stately display. They are performed in music and dance by people attired with their traditional costumes and with a great display of rituals and ceremonies. With its rich literary flourishment, the region has earned so many prestigious awards and accolades. The present book endeavours to bring the literary pursuits and the cultural diversities of the land to the fore.
