Full Description
The contributors to this volume belong to the disciplines of history, art history, geography, political science, economics and literature - many of them eminent in their field of interest. Their contributions make this volume multi-disciplinary, with an exceptionally wide scope, proving it indispensable for all students and scholars?of?social?sciences?and?humanities.
Three papers cover polity, economy and society in the Mughal Punjab; six relate to state-formation, economy, society and literature of the period of Sikh rule; one deals with religion and art in the hills. A masterly essay delineates the major developments in the recent study of Pahari?painting.
The period of colonial rule is covered by fifteen contributors who discuss political, economic and socio-cultural developments dwelling on urban society and politics; communitarian, secular and national consciousness; agrarian and urban economy; demographic and social change; Punjabi literature; and gender relations.
There are three papers on the Punjab after independence related to political economy; the bearing of agricultural growth on urbanization; and the movement for?the?Punjabi-speaking state.
The essay on Professor J.S. Grewal's work becomes virtually a study of new directions in the historiography of the Punjab in its political, social,?economic?and?cultural?dimensions.
