Reviews
"A compassionately written and deeply researched ethnography and historiography of dhol playing in Punjab as well as the Punjabi diaspora in North American and the United Kingdom. It paves new ground in assessing the mutual interaction between these distinct populations while demonstrating the challenges that face dhol-playing communities due to neoliberalism, cultural nationalism, and the growth and financial clout of the Punjabi diaspora."--Stefan Fiol, author of Recasting Folk in the Himalayas: Indian Music, Media, and Social Mobility, "Written with great intimacy and compassion, Dhol: Drummers, Identities, and Modern Punjab is a study of the aspirations and negotiations of those who love the dhol and live the life of a dholi. . . . The book is also a welcome addition to a burgeoning body of work that seeks to reexamine the abundance of drumming traditions in South Asia on its own terms." -- Journal of Folklore Research Reviews

Synopsis
An icon of global Punjabi culture, the dhol drum inspires an unbridled love for the instrument far beyond its application to regional vernacular music. Yet the identities of dhol players within their local communities and the broadly conceived Punjabi nation remain obscure. Gibb Schreffler draws on two decades of research to investigate dhol's place among the cultural formations within Punjabi communities. Analyzing the identities of musicians, Schreffler illuminates concepts of musical performance, looks at how these concepts help create or articulate Punjabi social structure, and explores identity construction at the intersections of ethnicity, class, and nationality in Punjab and the diaspora. As he shows, understanding the identities of dhol players is an ethical necessity that acknowledges their place in Punjabi cultural history and helps to repair their representation.An engaging and rich ethnography, Dhol reveals a beloved instrumental form and the musical and social practices of its overlooked performers., An icon of global Punjabi culture, the dhol drum inspires an unbridled love for the instrument far beyond its application to regional vernacular music.

- e***u (282)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThe listing was for a hardcover version of this book; however, I received a paperback. The Seller replied quickly to my question about this issue and issued a full refund - and let me keep the book. So, a diligent Seller for sure - and well packaged and reasonable timing on shipping. Thank you for the refund, and as you suggested, I'll likely donate this volume and seek the hardcover.
- e***n (392)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufGreat transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe
- 0***g (380)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufExcellent purchase. Was able to get all three items from the one seller. Seller was able to bundle all three items together into one package. Items as described and arrived in perfect condition. Good communication around shipping and tracking as items delayed and not able to be delivered by original estimate. Thanks to shipping updates I was able to track the items arriving before the extended delivery time. Thank you for making these items available on EBay.
