Abstract

Book Reviews 333 also be a useful guide to the many caste and tribes that are discussed in chap- ter 2, on which little prior research exists. The separation of the hijra/kothi feels labored, with hijras firmly categorized as non-erotic performers, which is not supported by any clear evidence. One suspects there may be a potential argument that further binds the explicit regulation of the tawa’if and other hereditary female performers with both hijras and kothis, considering that hijras were criminalized for their performances in the 1871 Criminal Tribes Act. Morcom opens up such undernourished research areas for future schol- arship. Overall, Illicit Worlds of Indian Dance is a timely contribution to South Asian studies, with much of interest to scholars of dance, gender, and sexual- ity, and the world of development.
