Attuned to the Everyday. A Conversation with Veena Das
No full textIn May 2017, Veena Das joined the second edition of «Anthro-pology Talks» at the University of Bern. Every two years, the Institute of Social Anthropology invites leading social and cultural anthropologists to discuss their recent work. After a series of lectures and workshops, the event concludes with an interview about the visiting scholar’s work and their thoughts on the future of our discipline.In May 2017, Veena Das joined the second edition of «Anthro-pology Talks» at the University of Bern.

Vibro-acoustic analysis of the Veena
No full textSarasvati Veena is an ancient musical instrument present in South India. A good amount of literature is available on musical studies and practices but very limited knowledge on construction and systematic mechanical analysis with modern computational tools. Veena is a complex mechanical system
and very good example of structural-acoustic coupled problem. The present work is an attempt to understand dynamical behaviour of Veena with advanced computational tools and experimental methods. Dynamic behaviour formulated by natural frequencies, mode shapes and damping factor. And it is determined by its components like wooden resonator, acoustic cavity, top-plate with the bridge and strings with twenty four fret supports placed in the logarithmic manner over the fret board. Along with the direct sound radiated by plucked string, energy gets transfer through a bridge to a top-plate to acoustical cavity and wooden resonator
Veena Das, Voix de l’ordinaire. L’anthropologue face à la violence
No full textL’œuvre de Veena Das est d’un grand intérêt pour tout chercheur et toute chercheuse en quête d’une méthodologie anthropologique concernant le traitement de la violence, qui ne se contenterait pas de raconter et de décrire les faits destructeurs qui la caractérisent, mais l’aborderait surtout comme une expérience humaine. Le travail de Veena Das constitue ainsi une source d’inspiration et c’est en cela qu’elle est une autrice dont on ne se sépare pas pendant la recherche de terrain et que l’on..

Male. Unknown Host. Unknown Distribution. India, Kerala. Etymology. Neoclarkinella narendrani is named in honour of the late Prof. T.C.
