There is great interest in recent scholarship in the study of
metropolitan cultures in India as evident from the number of books
that have appeared on cities such as Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and
Kolkata. Though Hyderabad has a rich archive of history scattered
in many languages, very few attempts have been made to bring this
scholarship together. The papers in this volume bring together this
scholarship at one place. They trace the contribution of different
languages and literary cultures to the multicultural mosaic that is
the city of Hyderabad How it has acquired this uniqueness and how
it has been sustained is the subject matter of literary cultures in
Hyderabad. This work attempts to trace some aspects of the history
of major languages practiced in the city. It also reviews the
contribution of the various linguistic groups that have added to
the development not just of varied literary cultures, but also to
the evolution of an inclusive Hyderabadi culture. The present
volume, it is hoped, will enthuse both younger and senior scholars
and students to take a fresh look at the study of languages and
literary cultures as they have evolved in India's cities and add to
the growing scholarship of metropolitan cultures in India.
