Soft cover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. Contents: Preface by Meena Banerjee. Gandharvi (Chapter 1 27; Epilogue). Glossary. Gandharvi: Life of a Musician, by the Sahitya Akademi Award-winning novelist Bani Basu (and translated by English scholar Jayita Sengupta), tells the story of Apala, a gifted singer of Hindustani classical music. She was born into an old, middle-class family of limited means in north Calcutta. To her family, her music meant little, as it did not fit their idea of respectability . Her husband chose her after hearing her sing at a public concert, yet her marital life proved loveless. Her in-laws were insensitive and exploitative. Her children grew up learning to ignore their mother s music. Shorn of freedom, love and, above all, music, Apala s life moved towards a tragic end. Surrounding Apala s story are the interlinked lives of other practitioners of music and classical art, like Soham, Mitul, Rameshwar Thakur, Dipali and Shekharan. Their lives intersected with Apala s in ways that profoundly affected all of them. Written in lilting prose that draws on the idioms of Hindustani classical music, Gandharvi is also musical in its form, where in the end the movement of music and the life story of Apala become one and the same.

Taxonomic research on Indian hoverflies has flourished over the past few decades with numerous species being synonymized, changes being made at species, generic, tribe and subfamily levels, several species discovered, and may species were newly recorded, which produces a need for updating Indian syrphid taxon list. To provide comprehensive data on hoverflies across the country, the authors have systematically catalogued Indian hoverflies with detailed information on type, species, synonymies and distributional data from relevant literature. A total of 369 species in 79 genera under 4 subfamilies are listed in the present work, including 3 unconfirmed species records, which makes the Indian Syrphid taxon list to comprise 366 species in 77 genera under 13 tribes and 4 subfamilies. This book will be an important database for future workers, working on Indian Hoverflies. …

This is the first-ever consolidated report on hoverflies from the classified agro-climatic zones of the state enumerating 119 species under 46 genera 12 tribe over 3 subfamilies. Revised taxonomic characters, updated genera and sub-genera status, annotated photographic identification key for all of the species as well as photo plates of all the species along with their distribution map have been introduced in this research work which was not available before. The current study includes description of a first time report of a species from Oriental region, and also report of a new genus from India. Moreover, this study includes first time report of 2 species from India.
