Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present monograph makes an analytical and exhaustive study of different iconic representations appearing in numerous terracotta plaques and also in uninscribed and inscribed seals (carrying legends in Brahmi, Kharoshi and/ or a mixed script called kharoshi-Brahmi), besides a number of Articrafts in stone, ivory and wood found in ancient Vanga that included within its limits the lower West Bengal and the coastal zone of Bangladesh upto the mouth of the Padma or rather the joint streams of the Padma Meghna and Brahmaputra, The critical study shows that an undercurrent force of polytheistic beliefs was prevailing in the land of ancient Vanga during the post-Maurya and pre-Gupta period and deities of Brahmanical faith, of Buddhist religion and of local origin were allowed to be adorned and worshipped in a spirit of peaceful religious co-exixtence.

Download or read book The Vākāṭakas written by Hans Bakker and published by Gonda Indological Studies. This book was released on 1997 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Illustrations: 48 b/w and 1 colour plate and 3 maps Description: For now more than half a century, scholars of the history of Western art have become familiar with the idea that art is embedded in a social and cultural context which imbues it with meaning and as such may be viewed as a source which generates knowledge concerning this context; this again may result in a better understanding of the artefact itself. This synthetic method of investigation, known under the name of 'iconology,' has proved to be of great value in the research of the history of culture. The present book is an essay in which the 'classical age' of India is studied by exploring textual as well as archaeological sources that relate to the kingdom of the Vakatakas, the southern neighbours of the Guptas in the fourth and fifth centuries AD. A great number of inscriptions and Hindu sculptures have been discovered and published during the last two decades, giving a new dimension to our appreciation of the culture of the Vakatakas, who formerly were mainly renowned for the artistic achievements of the Buddhist monuments in Ajanta. Among these inscriptions the one found in the Kevala-Narasimha Temple on Ramtek Hill (Ramagiri) deserves special mention as it throws a flood of light on the political history of the Vakatakas and their relationship with the Guptas. This book draws on the new sculptural and epigraphical evidence in presenting a history of the Vakataka kingdom. The (Hindu) sculptures found in the eastern Vakataka realm are brought together for the first time in an illustrated catalogue, their findspots are surveyed, their iconography is studied and their link with Ajanta is pointed out. A scrutiny of contemporaneous Sanskrit texts underpins the sometimes extraordinary iconography of the images; in combination with the political history of the Vakatakas this results in a fascinating picture of the (religious) culture of a fourth- and fifth-century elite of Central India.

Book Synopsis The Rise of Islam and the Bengal Frontier, 1204-1760 by : Richard M. Eaton
Download or read book The Rise of Islam and the Bengal Frontier, 1204-1760 written by Richard M. Eaton and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-07-28 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In all of the South Asian subcontinent, Bengal was the region most receptive to the Islamic faith. This area today is home to the world's second-largest Muslim ethnic population. How and why did such a large Muslim population emerge there? And how does such a religious conversion take place? Richard Eaton uses archaeological evidence, monuments, narrative histories, poetry, and Mughal administrative documents to trace the long historical encounter between Islamic and Indic civilizations. Moving from the year 1204, when Persianized Turks from North India annexed the former Hindu states of the lower Ganges delta, to 1760, when the British East India Company rose to political dominance there, Eaton explores these moving frontiers, focusing especially on agrarian growth and religious change.
