Book excerpt: There Has Existed Enough Material For The Writing Of History In Our Country, And Many Scholars Have Been Making Their Contribution In This Field From Time Immemorial. But The Methodology Adopted By Them Was Defective In Many Respects. The Myths And Legends, For Instance, Were Not Always Distinguished From Historical Facts. Some-Times, They Treated The Historical Events Merely As A Means Of Religious Propaganda Or As Background For The Display Of Their Poetical Skill. The Same Is True Of Kalhana And Many Other Great Historians Of Kashmir. While The Basic Value Of Their Works Cannot Be Underestimated, All Of Them Need A Highly Critical Examination With A View To Getting At The Truth And Writing A Reliable History Of Early Kashmir. The Present Work Is An Attempt In This Direction. No Doubt Some Other Scholars Also Have Done Likewise, And Successfully, There Is Still Scope For Further Work. In Fact, The Source Material Is So Vast And Varied That Only A Few Selected Topics Have Been Included Even In This Volume, And It Is Hoped That These Would Enthuse Other Scholars To Undertake Further Research On The History And Culture Of Kashmir, Which Would Definitely Prove Rewarding.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Illustrations: 12 B/w Illustrations Description: Dr. S. C. Ray s Early History and Culture of Kashmir is an outstanding piece of research on a very important region of India. He brings out clearly the unique characteristics of Kashmir history. Not only does he give a connected narrative of Kashmir s political evolution based on all available sources, literary, archaeological, numismatic, foreign allusions etc., but brings out the cultural, religious and social development of the people of the valley. It s in my opinion a model of what such regional histories ought to be and I congratulate Dr. Ray on producing a work of great value on an area which should be better known to the people of India as a whole.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1947-48, when India and Pakistan fought their first war over Kashmir, it has been reduced to an endlessly disputed territory. As a result, the people of this region and its rich history are often forgotten. This short introduction untangles the complex issue of Kashmir to help readers understand not just its past, present, and future, but also the sources of the existing misconceptions about it. In lucidly written prose, the author presents a range of ways in which Kashmir has been imagined by its inhabitants and outsiders over the centuries—a sacred space, homeland, nation, secular symbol, and a zone of conflict. Kashmir thus emerges in this account as a geographic entity as well as a composite of multiple ideas and shifting boundaries that were produced in specific historical and political contexts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is history? How does a land become a homeland? How are cultural identities formed? The Making of Early Kashmir explores these questions in relation to the birth of Kashmir and the discursive and material practices that shaped it up to the 12th century CE. Reinterpreting the first work of Kashmiri history, Kalhana’s Rajatarangini, this book argues that the text was history not despite being traditional Sanskrit poetry but because of it. It elaborated a poetics of place, implicating Kashmir’s sacred geography, a stringent critique of local politics, and a regional selfhood that transcended the limits of vernacularism.Combined with longue durée testimonies from art, material culture, script, and linguistics, this book jettisons the image of an isolated and insular Kashmir. It proposes a cultural formation that straddled the Western Himalayas and the Indic plains with Kashmir as the pivot. This is the story of the connected histories of the region and the rest of India.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of Critical Kashmir Studies presents emerging critical knowledge frameworks and perspectives that foreground situated histories and resistance practices to challenge colonial and postcolonial forms of governance and state building. It politicizes discourses of nationalism, patriotism, democracy, and liberalism, and it questions how these dominant globalist imaginaries and discourses serve institutionalized power, create hegemony, and normalize domination. In doing so, the handbook situates Critical Kashmir Studies scholarship within global scholarly conversations on nationalism, sovereignty, indigenous movements, human rights, and international law. The handbook is organized into the following five parts: Territories, Homelands, Borders Militarism, Humanism, Occupation Memories, Futures, Imaginations Religion, History, Politics Armed Conflict, Global War, Transnational Solidarities A comprehensive reference work documenting and consolidating the growing Critical Kashmir Studies scholarship, this handbook will be of interest to scholars of anthropology, political science, cultural studies, legal and sociolegal studies, sociology, history, critical Indigenous studies, settler colonial studies, and feminist studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The number of books written on Kashmir is legion. Most of them deal with the natural beauty of this Paradise on Earth . However, little has been written on the people whose life and history are equally interesting for they have given to humanity thought and craft that added to its dignity, elegance and colour. Kashmir has the unique distinction of having a long tradition of historical records, Kahhana s Rajatarangini being the sole history in Sanskrit literature. But these records follow the usual mode of presenting a list of kings, queens and their ministers or an account of their expeditions to neighbouring principalities. There is hardly any mention of the people who inhabit the land. This book has been written with the object of giving a comprehensive story of Kashmir revolving round the common man s political, social and cultural life from prehistoric times to the present day. Situated in a sensitive geo-political region where recently terrorism has raised its ugly head, Kashmir has attracted world attention. The genesis of this malady has been dealt with in detail. It is hoped the book will help the reader to understand the situation with all its ramifications.

This book was released on 2021-03-30 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the historical identity of Kashmir within the context of Islamic religious architecture between early fourteenth and mid-eighteenth century. It presents a framework of syncretism within which the understanding of this architectural tradition acquires new dimensions and possibilities in the region. In a first, the volume provides a detailed overview of the origin and development of Islamic sacred architecture while contextualizing it within the history of Islam in Kashmir. Covering the entirety of Muslim rule in the region, the book throws light on Islamic religious architecture introduced with the establishment of the Muslim Sultanate in the early fourteenth century, and focuses on both monumental and vernacular architecture. It examines the establishment of new styles in architecture, including ideas, materials and crafts introduced by non-Kashmiri missionaries in the late-fourteenth to fifteenth century. Further, it discusses how the Mughals viewed Kashmir and embellished the land with their architectural undertakings, coupled with encounters between Kashmir’s native culture, with its identity and influences introduced by Sufis arriving from the medieval Persianate world. The book also highlights the transition of the traditional architecture to a pan-Islamic image in the post-Independence period. With its rich illustrations, photographs and drawings, this book will interest students, researchers, and professionals in architecture studies, cultural and heritage studies, visual and art history, religion, Islamic studies and South Asian studies. It will also be useful to professional architecture institutes, public libraries, museums, cultural and heritage bodies as well as the general reader interested in the architectural and cultural history of South Asia.
