Other Worlds: Notions of Self and Emotion among the Lohorung Rai: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Other Worlds: Notions of Self and Emotion among the Lohorung Rai" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This important ethnographic study explores the world-view of the Lohorung Rai, a hill tribe of about 3,000 members living in Eastern Nepal. These rice farmers have a tradition of migration combined with hunting and gathering. By examining Lohorung concepts and their discourse on self and emotion, this book explores the way in which ancestral influence dominates the daily lives and rituals of the Lohorung. It explores the other world of the Lohorung within which their concepts about the nature of the person and the natural world can be understood. This study will be relevant not only to Himalayan experts but to all anthropologists interested in culture, self and emotion.

In this book, Nepali words are marked with a following N. and I transcribe them according to Turners Dictionary of the Nepali Language (1965 [1931]). I have simplified some transcriptions:t, is t; n is ng.
The transcription of Lohorung words follows my own phonological convention as shown in . The glottal stop is indicated by a hyphen or a k, as in miri-k (tail). When the glottal stop opens a suffix it is represented by a hyphen on its own, as in mi-wa (tears). The vowel ea is represented by a and ts is pronounced as in lets. The meanings of Lohorung words are offered as glosses in the text.
