This book examines the oral traditions of the Mavilan tribe through the ecocritical lens of puttinai, an Indigenous theoretical framework. Dr. Abraham's research bridges traditional ecocritical approaches with Indigenous knowledge systems, offering fresh insights into how tribal songs encode environmental wisdom and sustainable practices. The book analyzes the Mavilan songs as repositories of ecological knowledge, demonstrating how these oral traditions reflect inter connections among humans, nature, and supernature. Through a close analysis of agricultural, nuptial, and ritual songs, the author reveals how the Mavilan worldview presents an alternative paradigm for addressing contemporary environmental challenges.
