Rengsanggri: Family And Kinship In A Garo Village is a book written by anthropologist Robbins Burling. The book is a comprehensive study of the Garo people, who are an indigenous community living in the northeastern region of India. The book focuses on the Garo village of Rengsanggri and provides an in-depth analysis of the family and kinship systems that exist within the community.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of Garo culture. The first chapter provides an overview of the Garo people and their history, while the second chapter examines the social organization of the village. The third chapter focuses on the family and kinship systems, including marriage practices and inheritance patterns.In subsequent chapters, Burling explores the Garo's religious beliefs, agricultural practices, and economic systems. He also examines the role of women in Garo society and the ways in which they participate in economic and political life.Throughout the book, Burling draws on his extensive fieldwork in Rengsanggri to provide detailed descriptions of Garo customs and traditions. He also analyzes the ways in which these customs have changed over time, particularly in response to modernization and globalization.Overall, Rengsanggri: Family And Kinship In A Garo Village is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the anthropology of South Asia or the study of family and kinship systems in non-Western societies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
