Summary/Abstract |
The Makers of Tales presents an insider point of view on the Kaavad storytelling tradition of Rajasthan that is on the brink of extinction. A lesser known tradition it constitutes the storytellers using a portable shrine to narrate stories that are local and their own versions of the Great epics. They also use the imagery to recite the genealogies of their patrons. The shrine made by the suthar community of Mewar for the Kaavadiya Bhats of Marwar evokes a sacred space for the patrons who also make donations to have themselves depicted on the shrine along with the Gods and saints. The practitioners talk about the current scenario and the difficulty of sustaining their tradition.

Summary/Abstract |
In this book is captured the nature of myths and their telling, that there is no one story about anything. Pappuram and Kojaram are kaavadiya bhaats, storytellers from Rajasthan. Each has his own favourite story about why Lord Ganesh is always worshipped before any other god or goddess. They open their kaavads, the beautifully painted storytelling boxes, and begin - only to realise that the stories may be different, but are still really the same!
