| Abstract: |
Oral narratives like folksongs and folktales play a vital role in the oral community life of the Chakhesang Nagas. Due to the absence of a written script, the people find their way to relate the past through a different kind of oral transmission of folksongs and folktales. Since the oral narration solely depends on one's memory, with time, it slowly changes as the folksongs are been sung by different singers or the folktales narrated by different narrators. The flexible nature of the oral narration, it keeps on with the changing need of time and no one can stop the flow of change. No matter what consequences the changes is taking place, everything is recorded through folksongs and folktales which help the young generation to know about the social life of the past to some extent. Had it not folksongs and folktales existed or the creativity of the people fails to implore the importance of folksongs and folktales, then the community would have lost its contact with their past. But, with the creativity of the people in composing folksongs and narrating folktales, it bridges the gap of the past and the present generation. The present paper aims to study how oral narratives play an important role in helping the community to preserve their history, and how people use as a means to transmit their history from one generation to the next generation. It will also focus on how oral narration is accepted by the community in the present generation. The paper is based on the data collected during the personal fieldwork undertaken as part of the research. |
