वार्ता - कोमल कोठारी व रुस्तम भरुचा

Description:
Recording of a part of the series of interviews of Komal Kothari conducted by Rustom Bharucha. This tape contains a conversation between the two about the problem of using the categories of 'folk' and 'classical' in India. Kothari responds to Bharucha by sharing tentative definitions of the folk and problematizing them. He then discusses the ritual storytelling tradition of 'Vrat Katha' among women of rural Rajasthan. Instead of looking at them as stories venerating folk gods, Kothari suggests that they can be seen as a medium of perceiving the calendar for the rural population as the Vrat Kathas have specific dates (Tithi and Var). He then further problematizes the idea of village vs. the city. He discusses in detain about the various features of Borunda, where Rupayan Sansthan is situated and delineates different ways in which it could be considered as a rural or an urban space.
