Abstract Keywords: Material culture, flood, Mishing community, indigenous knowledge. Floods have ravaged portions of India from times immemorial. Though floods are one of the very few well recorded natural phenomena, the catastrophic damages caused by them attracted focused attention in recent decades. With increasing population pressure and accelerated economic development, the adverse effects of floods are being increasingly felt now. Flood cause great distress whenever they damage material objects and endanger lives. Assam is one of the highly flood prone state in India. In Assam vast stretches of land are submerged under water and other adverse effects are caused, such as destruction or damage to houses, cultivated land, property, bridges, roads and other means of communications, lives lost etc. year and year. Flood damages are the combined result of the natural phenomenon of floods coupled with the human activity in the flood plains. The fertile river silt has promoted large-scale settlements and cultivation of lands near the river banks and the adjacent areas or even the river bed region. While these activities are increasing on hand, on the other river continue to experience varying magnitudes and intensities of floods which cause damages, sometimes in the disastrous proportions. In the present study the focus was placed on studying the impact of flood on material culture of Mishing community living in a flood prone area and understanding the way members of the community are adapting to flood using their indigenous knowledge. A field work was conducted among the Mishing people of Archi Majorbari village inhabiting on the bank of river Dimow under Sissiborgaon Development Block of Dhemaji district. *Dr. Dipa Patir, Assistant Professor, Silapathar Science College, dipapatir1@gmail.com

 Abstract

Nature and earth has invariably been an outlet for emotions offered to artists and writers as an enormous expanse of indulgence further as submersion. This increased feeling of attachment, loss and immortality towards nature, has typically been mirrored and explored by the poets and novelists that gave them the title of a 'Romantic'. However, once this sense play attention from a vital school of intellectuals, it came to be referred to as inexperienced Studies or Eco-Criticism. The Romantic poets tried to re-discover the mystery and marvel of the globe, and tried to ascertain a purposeful relationship between literature and nature. To them, nature was the principal supply of inspiration and non-secular enlightenment. Wordsworth is taken into account to be the representative of the movement. He celebrates the wonder and mystery of nature in a number of his most noted lyrics, including 'Michael' that portrays a simple shepherd who is deeply connected to the natural world around him. He viewed nature as a living entity blessed with feeling and purpose. The poetry of Coleridge, John Keats, and Shelly conjointly enclosed emotional descriptions of the natural world and opt a number of the most effective far-famed nature verse in English.

 Abstract

In India, phulkari and kathak embroidery are renowned for their important traditional and cultural backgrounds. These embroidery designs have equal folk significance and come from two very distinct places. Although Phulkari is believed to have originated in the Punjab region, Kantha flourished in eastern India, specifically in Bengal, Orissa, Bihar, and Bangladesh. Although embroidery was once primarily thought of as a craft that women pursued to decorate household objects, research has shown that many rural women also used embroidery as a means of releasing suppressed emotions by using it to narrate their innermost thoughts and feelings. Through the research it is clear that Kantha and Phulkari have this resemblance of using embroidery as a means of self-expression for rural women. According to the literature, the startling similarities between these two practices are due to the fact that they were women-centric and, despite being practiced in two very different regions, shared a common or at least somewhat similar method of expressing their voices, desires, and dreams--things that the male-dominated society would have otherwise dismissed as unimportant. Intricate and exquisite embroidery by the rural women of Punjab and Bengal not only adorned their homes and personal belongings but also served as a lovely means of expressing their unfulfilled dreams. This research article explores the historical parallels between the Bengali-born Kantha and the Punjabi-born Phulkari, highlighting the ancient art practices of both groups as well as the innately feminine nature of these textile arts. The study examines the development of Kantha and Phulkari within the socio-cultural contexts of Bengal and Punjab, acknowledging the important responsibilities performed by women in creating these complex myths. We investigate the ways in which the feminine essence is woven into the artistic manifestations of Kantha and Phulkari, going beyond simple ornamentation to function as a potent tool for resistance, cultural preservation, and storytelling.

This research paper delves into the important role emotional intelligence (EI) plays in effective leadership. EI, which refers to the skill of identifying, comprehending, and regulating one's own feelings as well as those of others, has been recognized as an essential component of leadership, surpassing the conventional emphasis on cognitive intelligence and technical abilities. This article examines the fundamental aspects of EI--including self-awareness, self-control, drive, understanding others' feelings, and social abilities--and looks at how these factors affect leadership performance. Research findings and examples from different fields illustrate the ways in which leaders who possess high EI improve their decision-making, communication, handling of conflicts, team dynamics, and management of changes. Additionally, the article covers methods for incorporating EI into leadership training programs, aiming to create leaders capable of nurturing positive and efficient workplace cultures. The insights highlight the critical role EI plays in achieving leadership excellence and lay the groundwork for further studies on its utilization across various leadership scenarios.
