Produktbeschreibung

First published in 1961, this book has been widely recognised as a pioneering study to re-discover the glorious heritage of Persian in the Deccan. The book argues that the Deccan's multilingual & multi-religious traditions shaped the evolution of Indo-Persian and produced a distinct literary & cultural world which defied social, political or religious boundaries.
The book has been regarded and continues to remain a foundational text for studying the Deccan, be it in the field of history, literature or culture.
