The Loss of Hindustan: the invention of India. | Asif, Manan Ahmed | 256p. | Harvard U.P. | 2020 | 7,109円 | Nationalism -- India -- History The Loss of Hindustan presents a radical re-interpretation of how Europe came to see "India," and how "India" re-imagined history and in the process lost its identity of Hindustan as a home for all faiths. Asif uses Persian, Urdu, Sanskrit, English, French, Portuguese, and German histories about the subcontinent to demonstrate the work of history writing in the subcontinent before European rule, and how the practice of history writing changed as a result of colonialism. Turning back to the subcontinent's medieval past, the author focuses on the monumental history of Hindustan by Firishta, "Tarikh-i Firishta" which was written ca 1608 CE in the central, Deccan, region of the subcontinent. |

Women, Wealth and the State in Early Colonial India : the begams of Awadh. | Abbott, Nicholas J. | xvii,292p. maps | Edinburgh U.P. | 2024 | 20,700円 | India -- Oudh -- Women political activity -- British occupation -- History -- 18th century Few polities were more instrumental to the rise of the East India Company and the advent of British colonial rule in South Asia than the Mughal successor state of Awadh (c. 1722–1856). And few individuals influenced the making of the Awadh regime and its pivotal relationship with the Company more than the chief consorts (begams) of its ruling dynasty. Drawing on previously unexamined Persian sources, this book centres the begams of Awadh within a revised history of state-formation and conceptual change in pre- and early colonial India. |

Attendant Lords: Bairam Khan and Abdur Rahim: courtiers & poets in Mughal India. | Raghavan, T.C.A. | xiii,337p. illus. | HarperCollins | 2017 | 3,459円 | Nobility -- Poets -- Mogul Empire -- Biography -- History Bairam Khan and his son, Abdur Rahim Khan-i-Khanan were soldiers, poets and courtiers whose lives reflected the turbulent times they lived in. In telling their stories, Attendant Lords spans the reigns of four emperors - Babur, Humayun, Akbar and Jahangir - and covers over a hundred years of Mughal history, a time when these two noblemen were at the very heart of the court's labyrinthine politics. -- After Humayun's untimely death, Bairam Khan was regent to the young Emperor Akbar for four critical years. Bairam's own son, Abdur Rahim, became one of the most important generals of the Mughal Empire, but he is best remembered for his literary prowess, most particularly for his famous 'dohas'. Literature plays a large part in this story. -- This unusual dual biography traces the lives of these two noblemen against the backdrop of the courtly intrigues, brutal power struggles and the grand literary endeavours of the Mughal court. And it looks at their afterlives - how politics and the Hindi-Urdu debate reincarnated them as national heroes; how both men came to be seen as standing at the confluence of Hinduism and Islam; how their life stories have undergone subtle transformations; and how history, religion and literature combine in the broader context of nationalism and nation building |

Defending Muhammad in Modernity. | Tareen, SherAli | xxii,482p. | Permanent Black/ Ashoka Univ. | 2929 | 2,779円 | South Asia -- Religion -- Bareilly School (Islam) -- Deoband School In this groundbreaking study, SherAli Tareen presents the most comprehensive and theoretically engaged work to date on what is arguably the most long-running, complex, and contentious dispute in modern Islam: the Barelvī-Deobandī polemic. The Barelvī and Deobandī groups are two normative orientations/reform movements with beginnings in colonial South Asia. Almost two hundred years separate the beginnings of this polemic from the present. Its specter, however, continues to haunt the religious sensibilities of postcolonial South Asian Muslims in profound ways, both in the region and in diaspora communities around the world. |

Royals and Rebels: the rise and fall of the Sikh Empire. | Atwal, Priya | 312p ills. | Hurst | 2020 | 5,788円 | Punjab -- Kings and Rulers -- Ranjit Singh, Maharaja of the Punjab, 1780-1839 -- History -- 1700-1899 In late-eighteenth-century India, the glory of the Mughal emperors was fading, and ambitious newcomers seized power, changing the political map forever. Enter the legendary Maharajah Ranjit Singh, whose Sikh Empire stretched throughout northwestern India into Afghanistan and Tibet. Priya Atwal shines fresh light on this long-lost kingdom, looking beyond its founding father to restore the queens and princes to the story of this empire's spectacular rise and fall. She brings to life a self-made ruling family, inventively fusing Sikh, Mughal and European ideas of power, but eventually succumbing to gendered family politics, as the Sikh Empire fell to its great rival in the new India: the British. Royals and Rebels is a fascinating tale of family, royalty and the fluidity of power, set in a dramatic global era when new stars rose and upstart empires clashed. |

The Oriental, the Ancient and the Prtimitive: systems of marriage and the family in the pre-industry societies of Eurasia. | Goody, Jack | xix,542p. pap. | Cambridge U.P. | 1990 | 2,599円 | Asia -- RThe Near East -- Social life and custoims -- Families -- Kinship -- History -- Cross-cultural studies Goody examines the transmission of productive and other property in relation both to the prevailing political economy and to family and ideological structures, and then explores the distribution of mechanisms and strategies of management across cultures. He concludes that notions of western 'uniqueness' are often misplaced, and that much previous work on Asian kinship has been unwittingly distorted by the application of concepts and approaches derived from other, inappropriate, social formations, simple or post-industrial. |

The Rise of the West: A History of the Human Community, with a Retrospective Essay. | McNeill, William H. | 828p. pap. | U. of Chicago Pr. | 1991 | 2,277円 | Civilization -- World History -- Wester civilization A concise account of the development of the Western civlization beginning with the ancient culture of the Nile."The Rise of the West, winner of the National Book Award for history in 1964, is famous for its ambitious scope and intellectual rigor. In it, McNeil challenges the Spengler-Toynbee view that a number of separate civilizations pursued essentially independent careers, and argues instead that human cultures interacted at every stage of their history. The author suggests that from the Neolithic beginnings of grain agriculture to the present, major social changes in all parts of the world were triggered by new or newly important foreign stimuli, and he presents a persuasive narrative of world history to support this claim. Originally published in 1963. |
