The 'Early Medieval' Origins of India

Beschreibung

This book posits that India as an idea is neither a colonial construct nor a phenomenon as old as the Vedas or the Harappan age, but a historical reality that had its beginnings in the 'early medieval' times. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the meaning of India's past.
