Published By: CSS on eSS | Published Date: October, 16 , 2009This paper is about deconstructing the middle class
perception of the domain of the ‘folk’ in this region. With these questions,
the paper sets out an agenda for writing the history of rain and weather

proverbial archive and this archive demands an
interrogation and scrutiny. [Working paper No. 10].
