Early modern India-a period extending from the fifteenth to the
late eighteenth century-saw dramatic cultural, religious, and
political changes as it went from Sultanate to Mughal to early
colonial rule. Witness to the rise of multiple literary and
devotional traditions, this period was characterized by immense
political energy and cultural vibrancy. Text and Tradition in Early
Modern North India brings together recent scholarship on the
languages, literatures, and religious traditions of northern India.
It focuses on the rise of vernacular languages as vehicles for
literary expression and historical and religious self-assertion,
and particularly attends to ways in which these regional spoken
languages connect with each other and their cosmopolitan
counterparts. Hindu, Muslim, and Jain idioms emerge in new ways,
and the effect of the volume as a whole is to show that they belong
to a single complex cultural conversation.
