Notes

1. The word rakshas might have indicated one of a non-Aryan anthropophagous race of India, appropriated and obliterated by the “fair-skinned” Aryans. The word came to mean “cannibal” or someone/something monstrous. Rakshashi is therefore a female monster who can devour anyone who crosses her path.

2. Thakurmar Jhuli has four parts. Book 1 is The Ocean of Milk, book 2 is called Roop Taraashi (Scary Beauty), book 3 is The Nest of the Animals, and book 4 is called The Dessert. In terms of theme and subject matter, Thakurmar Jhuli’s stories can be divided into four distinct categories: tales of adventure, tales of demons, animal tales, and humorous tales.
