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.
