Masked Identities: Safeguarding India's Intangible Cultural Heritage" by Shubha Srinivasan

 The book appears to discuss and explore the concept of intangible cultural heritage in India, particularly focusing on masked traditions. Intangible cultural heritage, as highlighted by UNESCO, encompasses various forms of cultural expressions, including oral traditions, performing arts, social practices, rituals, knowledge, and craftsmanship. India has several elements recognized on UNESCO's list of Intangible Cultural Heritage, such as Kutiyattam (Sanskrit Theatre), the tradition of Vedic chanting, and Ramlila (the traditional performance of the Ramayana). The cover art features a stylized image of masks, visually representing the theme of masked identities and their connection to cultural heritage.
