NEW PRINT WITH PROFESSIONAL TYPE-SET IN CONTRAST TO SCANNED PRINTS OFFERED BY OTHERS
Omens And Superstitions Of Southern India
This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature.
In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards:
1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a fresh and newly reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions.
2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work.

Portrait

Edgar Thurston

Edgar Thurston was a British scholar and colonial administrator born in 1855 in London. He served as the Superintendent at the Madras Government Museum from 1885 to 1908. During his tenure, Thurston made significant contributions to the fields of zoology, ethnology, and botany in India. His extensive research focused on the study of the diverse communities in Southern India, particularly the castes and tribes of the Madras Presidency. He played a crucial role in documenting the cultural practices, social structures, and physical traits of over 300 different communities, providing invaluable ethnographic data. His research was conducted at the Madras Government Museum, where he also published many of his findings. Thurston's works were instrumental in preserving the rich cultural heritage of India, especially at a time when modernization threatened to alter traditional lifestyles. After his retirement, he continued his research and writing, leaving behind a legacy of academic contributions that provided a comprehensive understanding of Indian society during the British colonial period. He passed away in 1935 at the age of 80 in Penzance, United Kingdom. His studies remain an important reference for those interested in Indian anthropology and ethnography.
