About the Book
Shabar Lokgan O Lokkatha (Bengali Version), edited by Mahasweta Devi and compiled and translated by Prashanta Rakshit, is a valuable collection of the folk songs and folktales of the Shabar community, one of India's indigenous tribal groups. The anthology preserves a rich oral tradition that reflects the community's history, beliefs, customs, rituals, relationship with nature, and everyday life. Through lyrical folk songs and engaging narratives, the volume offers rare insights into the cultural heritage, imagination, and collective wisdom of the Shabar people. Mahasweta Devi's editorial guidance and Prashanta Rakshit's dedicated compilation and translation make this work an important contribution to the preservation of India's tribal literary heritage. Published by Sahitya Akademi, it is an invaluable resource for students, researchers, folklorists, and readers interested in indigenous cultures and Bengali folk literature.
