Download or read book Punjabi written by Tej Bhatia and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-08-21 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 1993. Punjabi is the language of the Punjab-the land of five rivers--of northern India and Pakistan. Primarily written in three distinct scripts, a unique feature of the language is that, along with Lahanda and the Western Pahari dialects, it is the only modern Indo-European language spoken in South Asia which is tonal in nature. It is recognized as one of the several national languages of India and Pakistan, and approximately forty-five million people speak Punjabi as either a first or second language. This Descriptive Grammar accounts for the linguistic and sociolinguistic properties of Punjabi and Lahanda/Multani. It explores the standard language, giving a comprehensive account of syntax, morphology and phonology. With a descriptive, typological and cognitive examination of the language, this is the most up-to-date, comprehensive and authoritative description of modern Punjabi to date. This volume will be invaluable to students and researchers of linguistic theory and practice.

Book Synopsis The Road to Empire by : Satnam Singh
Download or read book The Road to Empire written by Satnam Singh and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2024-10-15 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the late seventeenth century to the late eighteenth century, the Sikh community transformed from a relatively insignificant religious minority to an elevated position of kingship and empire. Under the leadership of Guru Gobind Singh (1661–1708), Sikh elites and peasants began to align themselves with discourses of power and authority, and within a few decades Khalsa Sikh warriors conquered some of the wealthiest provinces of the Mughal and Afghan empires. In this book, Satnam Singh argues that the Sikhs’ increasing self-assertion was not simply a reaction to Mughal persecution but also a result of an active program initiated by the Guru to pursue larger visions of scholarship, conquest, and political sovereignty. Using a vast trove of understudied court literature, Singh shows how Sikhs grappled with Indo-Islamic traditions to forge their own unique ideas of governance and kingship with the aim to establish an independent Sikh polity. The Road to Empire offers an impressive intellectual history of the early modern Sikh world.

Book excerpt: "WHEN THE LAND OF MINDHAAS IS PLAGUED BY THE MONSTERS OF THE SANDS AND A WAR FOR SUPREMACY... HE IS THE ONLY HOPE... Three thousand years ago, a man devastated by the loss of his daughter builds a city and creates the kingdom of Mindhaas. Two centuries later, when the same realm is plagued by the “beasts of the sands” who know none of the ways of civilised living, the king of Mindhaas calls upon his best warrior to rid the world of their entire race. The leader of the Mindh forces, and the one true love of the princess of Manuforpur, is their only hope. But little do the protectors of Mindhaas know that their land is soon about to be shaken by the mighty forces of another kingdom as well. Pirouetting through a time of grand cities boasting gates of gold and when the might of kingdoms was measured by the number of war elephants kept, an epic love story between two souls from different cities creates a stir and provokes a war. And thus a fellowship of men robed in love and determined to form a sovereign nation from a land known for its splendour and justice rises. A tale of determination, survival, war, love and... Angad.
