| Annotation: | Co-authored by a Western anthropologist and a native Rajasthani school-teacher, this article combines excerpts from interviews, songs, and stories with interpretation and background information that examines the real and imagined ways that children interact with their natural surroundings in a rapidly changing environment. The essay is organized into three parts: methods and sources; the historical, cultural, and natural setting of Rajasthan; and quotations from the children themselves. The authors conclude that views of both humans and landscapes are “forged in childhood” and that a notable continuity of knowledge exists despite drastic environmental and social change. |
