Download or read book Indian Epigraphy written by Richard Salomon and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1998-12-10 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a general survey of all the inscriptional material in the Sanskrit, Prakrit, and modern Indo-Aryan languages, including donative, dedicatory, panegyric, ritual, and literary texts carved on stone, metal, and other materials. This material comprises many thousands of documents dating from a range of more than two millennia, found in India and the neighboring nations of South Asia, as well as in many parts of Southeast, central, and East Asia. The inscriptions are written, for the most part, in the Brahmi and Kharosthi scripts and their many varieties and derivatives. Inscriptional materials are of particular importance for the study of the Indian world, constituting the most detailed and accurate historical and chronological data for nearly all aspects of traditional Indian culture in ancient and medieval times. Richard Salomon surveys the entire corpus of Indo-Aryan inscriptions in terms of their contents, languages, scripts, and historical and cultural significance. He presents this material in such a way as to make it useful not only to Indologists but also non-specialists, including persons working in other aspects of Indian or South Asian studies, as well as scholars of epigraphy and ancient history and culture in other regions of the world.

Download or read book Charters of the Chaulukyas and Vaghelas of Gujarat c 950 1300 CE written by Charters of the Chaulukyas and Vaghelas of Gujarat(c.950–1300 CE) and published by Prowess Publishing. This book was released on 2024-05-14 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Land grants were issued on a large scale by the Chaulukya and Vaghela rulers from c. 900–1350 CE to religious institutions in Gujarat.

The changes are valuable in understanding the transformation and proliferation of subsects in religious belief and the Varna system in Western India and particularly in Gujarat.

Download or read book The Economic Life of Northern India C A D 700 1200 written by Lallanji Gopal and published by Motilal Banarsidass Publishe. This book was released on 1989 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vogue for economic history has increased in the post-Independence decades. But economic history is an exceedingly difficult discipline. The historian often gets lost in producing an inventory of static facts or else is committed to confirm a conceptual and interpretational framework copied from western history. The present monograph, approved for the Ph.D. degree of the University of London, is among the pioneering studies which have helped determine the scope, nature, methods and ideals for economic history. It delineates the details of economic life in a developmental manner taking due notice of the complex of terms and concepts in the sastric texts. In selecting the early medieval period as its subject of study the present work has inspired many other studies, and, by illuminating a much neglected period, has shed light alike on the ancient and medieval periods. It places the period in the total span of Indian history and hence has been the model for students of economic history and is recognised by historians in general as one of the most significant contributions on the socio-economic history of India.
