Hardcover. Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: New. 1st Edition. The Vijayanagara Empire (c.1336-1650), the first south Indian state spread over most of the peninsula, except Kerala, has, to its credit a rich corpus of inscriptions in three Dravidian languages - Kannada, Tamil and Telugu - besides those in Sanskrit. This volume, the fifth in the ICHR series of Vijayanagara inscriptions, is the first part of a two-volume publication and contains 576 Tamil inscriptions of the pre-Krishnadevaraya period. The inscriptions throw much light on the significance of the Tamil area for the Vijayangara state. Its political organization there shows some peculiar features, being dominated, as it were, by the princely viceroys. The Tamil inscriptions also provide somewhat richer details than the Kannada and Telugu inscriptions do regarding the socio-economic conditions of the times. The inscriptions, compiled from several standard publications, have been arranged in a chronological order, and the text of each inscription is given in Roman transliteration followed by an abstract in English. The Index provides explanations to most technical terms found in the inscriptions, and, hence, it can also be used as a glossary. Together the five volumes in this series place a large and systematically organized body of Vijayanagara inscriptions in the hands of scholars and researchers in medieval south Indian history.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Historical and Political Geography of the Cola Country is a revised and enlarged version of the author s work that was originally published in 1973. It deals with different aspects of the territorial units found in the Cola period inscriptions (850 1300), from the village (ur) at the base to higher-level territories, such as valanatu and mantalam. Instead of simply considering them to be administrative divisions used for political purposes, their social and cultural aspects are studied here, while the associated social and agrarian groups (like urar and nattar) are given due importance in understanding contemporary socio-political organization. Several tables and maps have been added to this new edition, to organize and analyze the data provided. As a backdrop, the geography of the bhakti period (700 900) is also explored, showing the continuity of temples and the associated settlements over the centuries.
