This volume looks into the ways Indian Ocean routes shaped the
culture and contours of early modern India. IT shows how these and
other historical processes saw India rebuilt and reshaped during
late medieval times after a long age of relative 'stagnation',
'isolation' and 'backwardness'. The various papers deal with such
themes including interconnectedness between Africa and India, trade
and urbanity in Golconda, the changing meanings of urbanization in
Bengal, commercial and cultural contact between Aceh and India,
changing techniques of warfare, representation of early modern
rulers of India in contemporary European paintings, the impact of
the Indian Ocean on the foreign policies of the Mughals, the
meanings of piracy, labour process in the textile sector,
Indo-Ottoman trade, Maratha-French relations, Bible translations
and religious polemics, weapon making and the uses of elephants.
The book will be of interest to students and scholars of early
modern Indian history in general and those working on aspects of
connected histories in particular.
