The focus of this volume is the rise and fall of the Indian
maritime merchant in the early modern period: the heyday of Moghul
Surat, the appearance of a group of independent merchant
shipowners, and their eclipse at the end of the period in the face
of European competition and monopolies. Much of the evidence for
the activity of these Indian merchants comes from the records of
the Dutch and English East India Companies, as well as the papers
of English private merchants, and this is carefully assessed by
Professor Das Gupta in these articles. He is also concerned to set
the picture thus gained in the context of the trade of the Indian
Ocean region as a whole, and to relate it to the questions of
continuity and change raised by Van Leur.
