Series 1: Fieldwork in Northwest India
Subseries 1: Dissertation fieldwork
Interviews, songs, field note journals, and photographs collected during LaMacchia's dissertation fieldwork in the Kinnaur district of Northwest, India. This fieldwork resulted in LaMacchia's 2001 dissertation: "Women's Religious Expression in Tibetan Buddhism: Songs and Lives of the Jomo (Nuns) of Kinnaur, Northwest India." This research was also the basis for her 2008 book: Songs and Lives of the Jomo (Nuns) of Kinnaur, Northwest India. See Appendix A for a list of interview subjects.
Songs and interviews have been paired with their transcripts wherever possible. The archivist paired these materials based on description provided by LaMacchia, not by listening to the tapes. As a result, errors and discrepancies may exist.
