Download or read book History Of Mewar Dynasty written by Israel Tynon and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-16 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Premier princely state of Rajasthan, the erstwhile Rajputana (northwest India), till its merger into the Union territory in 1948, Mewar has been celebrated in history and legend. In this far-famed region are represented not only the Rajput chivalry and high sense of honor, but also in their arts, architecture, and fabulous cultural traditions. Developed from the author's intensive research, the book tries to reconstruct the unparalleled, glorious history of (perhaps) the world's oldest ruling family: the house of Mewar -- now called the 'clan of Sisodias', in earliest times 'Guhilots'. A definite and detailed history of the Rajputs is also remarkably readable. This historic book presents the illustrious history of the Sisodia Rajputs who presided over the land of Mewar and the vaunted fortress of Chittor. Part history, part legend, this is an account of the saffron-robed heroes who guarded Mewar's frontiers, defending her against repeated invasions, and valued honor above all else. This book is a colorful narrative - complete with illustrations - about legendary rulers and a tribute to the spirit of the martial Rajput clan.

Download or read book Maharanis written by Lucy Moore and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2006-06-27 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until the 1920s, to be a Maharani, wife to the Maharajah, was to be tantalizingly close to the power and glamour of the Raj, but locked away in purdah as near chattel. Even the educated, progressive Maharani of Baroda, Chimnabai—born into the aftermath of the 1857 Indian Mutiny—began her marriage this way, but her ravishing daughter, Indira, had other ideas. She became the Regent of Cooch Behar, one of the wealthiest regions of India while her daughter, Ayesha, was elected to the Indian Parliament. The lives of these influential women embodied the delicate interplay between rulers and ruled, race and culture, subservience and independence, Eastern and Western ideas, and ancient and modern ways of life in the bejeweled exuberance of Indian aristocratic life in the final days both of the Raj, and the British Empire. Tracing these larger than life characters as they bust every known stereotype, Lucy Moore creates a vivid picture of an emerging modern, democratic society in India and the tumultous period of Imperialism from which it arose. Through the sumptuous, adventurous lives of three generations of Indian queens—from the period following the Indian Mutiny of 1857 to the present, Lucy Moore traces the cultural and political changes that transformed their world.

Download or read book The Indian Princes and their States written by Barbara N. Ramusack and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-01-08 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the princes of India have been caricatured as oriental despots and British stooges, Barbara Ramusack's study argues that the British did not create the princes. On the contrary, many were consummate politicians who exercised considerable degrees of autonomy until the disintegration of the princely states after independence. Ramusack's synthesis has a broad temporal span, tracing the evolution of the Indian kings from their pre-colonial origins to their roles as clients in the British colonial system. The book breaks ground in its integration of political and economic developments in the major princely states with the shifting relationships between the princes and the British. It represents a major contribution, both to British imperial history in its analysis of the theory and practice of indirect rule, and to modern South Asian history, as a portrait of the princes as politicians and patrons of the arts.
