Book excerpt: Located in the Himalayas, Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) is the northernmost state of India. It has over 2,000 years of historical narratives which, together with archaeological findings, show how this region has been a cultural crucible not only for India, but for Tibet, China and Central Asia as well. Cosmopolitan distinctiveness of the region, as its hub, is supported by the great Chinese historiographers, like Hieun Tsang, Ou Kong, Che Mong, and many others. The existing archaeological remains here bear out a rich pluralistic traditionalism of various societies that contributed significantly to the region's cultural development. During the last hundred years or so, the J&K has been exposed to many influences that have produced striking changes in the socio-political and cultural environment of this Himalayan state. One of the momentous events, among these changes here, has been in art history - the birth of Modern Art. This book is a well-researched effort to find the beginnings and development of J&K's modern art movement.

Multiple cultural influences have fostered a unique artistic environment of diverse aesthetics, witnessed in this landmark exhibition of 130 sumptuous objects of exemplary quality, dating from the 2nd to the 20th centuries. The Arts of Kashmir comprises works of Buddhist, Hindu, and Islamic art, including sculpture, painting, and calligraphy loaned from collections in the U.S., Europe, and India. Many of the objects have never been seen outside of India; in some cases they have never been exhibited or published anywhere. To provide a sense of the broad artistic contributions of this famously lush and beautiful region, the exhibition includes examples of stone and bronze sculptures and manuscript paintings, in addition to the fine examples of papier-mache, carpets, shawls, and embroidery for which Kashmir is renowned."--Publisher's website.

Book Synopsis Understanding Kashmir and Kashmiris by : Christopher Snedden
Download or read book Understanding Kashmir and Kashmiris written by Christopher Snedden and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-09-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1846, the British created the state of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) - popularly called "Kashmir" - and then quickly sold this prized region to the wily and powerful Raja, Gulab Singh. Intriguingly, had they retained it, the India-Pakistan dispute over possession of the state may never have arisen, but Britain's concerns lay elsewhere -- expansionist Russia, beguiling Tibet and unstable China "circling" J&K -- and their agents played the 'Great Game' in Afghanistan and 'Turkistan'. Snedden contextualizes the geo-strategic and historical circumstances surrounding the British decision to relinquish prestigious 'Kashmir', and explains how they and four Dogra maharajas consolidated and controlled J&K subsequently. He details what comprised this diverse princely state with distant borders and disunified peoples and explains the Maharaja of J&K's controversial accession to India on 26 October 1947 - and its unintended consequences. Snedden weaves a compelling narrative that frames the Kashmir dispute, explains why it continues, and assesses what it means politically and administratively for the divided peoples of J&K and their undecided futures.
