Notes
- Abstract:
- This man is engaged in making paper, probably somewhere in the town of Aurangabad or possibly in nearby Daulatabad, which had been a centre of paper-making for centuries. As elsewhere, paper-making in India, which began in the 15th century, followed several stages. Sheets of paper were formed on a floating mould. A wooden frame or web was floated over water, which covered the base of the mould. Pulp was added to the mould and spread evenly over its surface. The mould was then lifted up horizontally leaving the fibres flat. The sheet had to be dried and this was traditionally done by leaving the sheet outside in the sun. ( en )
- General Note:
- Christoph von Fürer-Haimendorf (1909-1995) was born and educated in Vienna, gaining a PhD in anthropology from the University of Vienna in 1931. A grant from the Rockefeller Foundation enabled him to study at the London School of Economics, under the anthropologist Bronislaw Malinowski. In 1936, he went to the Naga Hills in northeast India for his first fieldwork; over the next four decades, he worked extensively in south & central India, northeast India and Nepal. In 1950 he was appointed Professor of Anthropology at SOAS, where he established the Department of Anthropology. During his career, he published seventeen books, most of them ethnographies of tribal cultures. He was President of the Royal Anthropological Institute (1975-77) and a pioneer in the field of visual anthropology.
