query: teaching article, gender and language in India

[Maggie Ronkin]

And an excellent companion to Raheja and Gold (1994) from the Afghan border
region of Pakistan is:

Grima, Benedicte. 1992. The Performance of Emotion Among Paxtun Women:
“The Misfortunes Which Have Befallen Me”. Austin, TX: University of Texas
Press.

This is an accessible ethnography of communication and a fascinating
ethnographic account of culturally constructed and socially performed
emotions.
