Vijayanagara Voices: Exploring South Indian History and Hindu Literature

William J. Jackson
Routledge, 03-Mar-2016 - History - 262 pages


The Vijayanagara Empire flourished in South India between 1336 and 1565. Conveying the depth and creativity of Hindu religious and literary expression during that time, Vijayanagara Voices explores some of the contributions made by poets, singer-saints, and philosophers. Through translations and discussions of their lives and times, Jackson presents the voices of these cultural figures and reflects on the concerns of their era, looking especially into the vivid images in their works and their legends. He examines how these images convey both spiritual insights and physical experiences with memorable candour. The studies also raise intriguing questions about the empire's origins and its response to Muslim invaders, its 'Hinduness', and reasons for its ultimate decline. Vijayanagara Voices is a book about patterns in history, literature and life in South India. By examining the culture's archetypal displays, by understanding the culture in its own terms, and by comparing associated images and ideas from other cultures, this book offers unique insights into a rich and influential period in Indian history.

Essays in Indian History: Towards a Marxist Perception ; With, The Economic History of Medieval India: a Survey

Irfan Habib
Anthem Press, 2002 - History - 426 pages


This volume brings together, for the first time, several of Professor Habib's essays, representing three decades of scholarship and providing an insightful interpretation of the main currents in Indian history from the standpoint of Marxist historiography. The collection examines the role played by the peasantry and caste in Indian history; explores the forms of class struggle and the stage of Indian economic development in Mughal India; analyses the impact of colonialism on the Indian economy; and chronicles the changes in Marx's perception of India. These painstakingly researched and erudite essays form a volume that is indispensable for scholars and students of Indian history.

History of Hindus and Hinduism


It is the only religion, that is not founded in a single historic event or prophet, but which itself precedes recorded history.
http://www.hinduwisdom.info/introduction_to_hinduism.htm


Came across the Google Book "The Hindus: An Alternative History." by Wendy Doniger.
http://books.google.co.in/books?id=nNsXZkdHvXUC


That gave interest to find some more resources on the topic.

Early Harappans and Indus Sarasvati Civilization - Book Information and Review

Early Harappans and Indus Sarasvati Civilization, 2 Vols.
by Sharma, D P and Madhuri Sharma (ed)
2006, Set US$ 105.88 or Rs. 4500
 

The Harappan Civilization is the gift of two rivers - the Indus and Sarasvati whose tributaries had played a dominant and decisive role in the origin of this  civilization. As of now around 2658 Harappan and its associated sites have been reported, of which 1058 sites are located in the dried-up bank of the Sarasvati river which flowed from the Himalayas to Adi Badri towards Desalpur in Gujarat. . The Sarasvati was a mighty river between ca. 5000 and 1800 B.C. Around ca. 1800 B.C., due to neo-tectonic movements in the Himalayas, the river started drying up. .

 

This set of books is a collection of forty research papers contributed by the noted scholars and historians from India and abroad.
 
Volume-I contains nineteen papers which includes introduction, the origin of Harappan, and Early Harappan village chalcolithic cultures.
 
 Volume-II covers on Indus Sarasvati Civilization and includes twenty-one papers on the Mature Indus Sarasvati Civilization which contain controversial and clashing views.
 
The nomenclature, either of Harappan, Indus or Indus Sarasvati civilization means the same. This has been confirmed on the basis of the available archaeological evidences.

Bound in two volumes, the papers with notes, references and bibliography are well illustrated and grouped in three parts, i.e., Introduction; Early Harappans; and Indus-Sarasvati Controversies.
