KALARIPPAYATTU RESOURCES
The major book-length study of kalarippayattu
is Phillip B. Zarrilli's "When the Body Becomes All Eyes: Paradigms, Practices,
and Discourses of Power in Kalarippayattu (New Delhi: Oxford University
Press, 1998). This volume is a performance ethnography of traditional and current
martial practice, notions of the body and bodymind relationship which inform
practice, etc. It is not a practical manual of techniques, but does include
extensive descriptions and photographs of training in Kerala. The volume includes
an appendix listing over thirty kalari in Kerala.
The following bibliography from
the book provides a host of resources on or about kalarippayattu, Kerala
culture and history, anthropological and ethnographic approaches to the study
of practices like martial arts, and Indian martial arts in general.
