In the early 1400s, Iranian elites began migrating to the Deccan
plateau of southern India. Lured to the region for many reasons,
these poets, traders, statesmen, and artists of all kinds left an
indelible mark on the Islamic sultanates that ruled the Deccan
until the late seventeenth century. The result was the creation of
a robust transregional Persianate network linking such distant
cities as Bidar and Shiraz, Bijapur and Isfahan, and Golconda and
Mashhad. Iran and the Deccan explores the circulation of art,
culture, and talent between Iran and the Deccan over a
three-hundred-year period. Its interdisciplinary contributions
consider the factors that prompted migration, the physical and
intellectual poles of connectivity between the two regions, and
processes of adaptation and response. Placing the Deccan at the
center of Indo-Persian and early modern global history, Iran and
the Deccan reveals how mobility, liminality, and cultural
translation nuance the traditional methods and boundaries of the
humanities.
