A History of India de Hermann Kulke

A History of India

Autor Hermann Kulke, Dietmar Rothermund
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 mai 2016
Presenting the grand sweep of Indian history from antiquity to the present, A History of India is a detailed and authoritative account of the major political, economic, social and cultural forces that have shaped the history of the Indian subcontinent.
Hermann Kulke and Dietmar Rothermund provide a comprehensive overview of the structural pattern of Indian history, covering each historical period in equal depth. Fully revised throughout, the sixth edition of this highly accessible book has been brought up to date with analysis of recent events such as the 2014 election and its consequences, and includes more discussion of subjects such as caste and gender, Islam, foreign relations, partition, and the press and television.
This new edition contains an updated chronology of key events and a useful glossary of Indian terms, and is highly illustrated with maps and photographs. Supplemented by a companion website (www.routledge.com/cw/kulke), it is a valuable resource for students of Indian history.

Recenzii

"This book is one of the few available examples of its kind that succeeds in presenting a broad scale approach to India's complex histories. It achieves this while combining a useful chronological framework with key themes covering not just political events, but also economic contexts, constitutional reform, and cultural transformations. In this sense it is of enormous value as both an introduction to India and as a reference point for those revisiting its politics, culture, society and economy."
William Gould, University of Leeds, UK
