His lordship at the Cobblers’ well
In 1984 I travelled to the eastern Tarai region of Nepal in order to investigate the contexts in which a culturally specific knowledge of hygiene and sanitation could form a basis for primary health care in the region.
The Purity of Water at Hospital and at Home as a Problem of Intercultural Understanding
Women in a provincial town in southern Nepal were instructed by medical doctors and compounders to boil water, and to keep it boiling for 15 minutes before mixing it with infant formula or oral rehydration salts. Most women ignored the advice. Those who seemed to follow it merely brought the water to boil. This report describes how and why women boil water and assesses the health implications of their practices. The failure of women to adopt "pro…
A Quarrel in the Language Family
I came upon this passage in Grierson's Linguistic Survey of India (1927: 1: 1: 19) after having spent a year in the provincial town of Janakpur, documenting the Maithili language of northern Bihar and southeastern Nepal. Many local people encouraged and assisted me in my research, but all told me in good faith that I had come to the wrong place. I should have gone twenty miles to the southeast, where the 'authentic' language is spoken. It seems t…

The Formation of the Concept of Nation-State in Nepal
At the turn of the nineteenth century three different indigenous concepts were central to the Nepalese understanding of their polity. These were the possessions (muluk) of the king, the realm (deśa), and the countries (alsodeśaordes) of a people. Each of these concepts specified a different relationship between ruler, land, and people, and each was legitimated with reference to a different kind of authority: proprietary, ritual, or ancestral.

The Founding of the Ramanandi Sect
Scholars disagree on the role of the Hindu saint Ramanand in the founding of the Ramanandi sect. In this essay I present four different spiritual genealogies of the guru-disciple succession of Ramanand which were compiled at different periods of time in the development of the sect and I analyze these genealogies as records of strategies in which the sect reinterpreted its past in order to perpetuate itself in the present. In conclusion I propose …
