Scientific Essay from the year 2005 in the subject Cultural Studies - Basics and Definitions, Tezpur University, course: cultural studies, language: English, abstract: Cultural diversity is the essence of India's identity. Each culture draws its strength from its tradition and yet flourishes when it comes into contact with others. The Khasi have a long history of traditions and there is a great deal to learn from its tangible and intangible heritage. Tangible heritage includes handicraft (bamboo, grass and wood), weaving, art etc. These instruments are employed not only to fulfill one's daily requirements but to add beauty and brightness in the otherwise dull and drab existence. They have been a cementing force in our social and economic life. Art was never meant for the privileged few but has instead, been a connecting thread and a medium of connection for the masses. The intangible heritage includes the oral traditions which have been transmitting the flow of knowledge in the various aspects of history, philosophy, technical skill. It cuts across the discipline of dance and music as well as of informal social practices. Folktales, jokes, proverbs, anecdotes, myths, legends are various forms of narratives, passed on orally, from one generation to another. These narratives are performed in an open area, accompanied with music. The performers and the audience have a strong relationship in romanticizing the dreams and aspirations of the common man, and thus relieving the society from hypertension and frustration. Also, the mysterious life of our ancestors is brought into light through these narratives.
