South Central Zone Cultural Centre, Nagpur, is one of the six Zonal Centres established under the Ministry of Culture to coordinate interstate Cultural events through a number of interactive programmes. Besides festivals of various performing arts, artists's meets and such promotional activities, the Centre is proud to implement Research and Field Survey projects in its Member States with the advice of the respective Departments of Culture. Its aim is to bring out authoritative material on important performing art forms both in the Print and Electronic Media. Specialists were requested to undertake field survey work and preparation of Monographs as well as were requested to assist the Centre's visual Documentation team in preserving the forms on internationally accepted electronic medium. The Centre is developing archives with all these materials.
The Centre is happy to publish this Monograph on "Marathi Powada" of Maharashtra a name to reckon with in the Traditional Oral folk history of India. We are specially thankful to Prof. (Dr.) Vishwanath Shinde of Kolhapur the author of this monograph and the Chief Investigator of the project on "Marathi Powada" and an authority on folklore of Maharashtra for not only authering this book but directing the documentation team.
