ARAB GEOGRAPHERS’ KNOWLEDGE OF SOUTHERN INDIA
Author: Dr. SYED MUHAMMAD HUSAYN NAINAR
Publisher: Other Books
ISBN: 9380081103
Category : India, South
Languages : en
Pages : 103
Book Description
Centuries ago, the roaring sea was the only answer for the quest of the new. Voyages made landscapes and people. Each expedition constructed a new history of land and new versions of cultures. Some took the yoke of imperialism through these sea routes; some a mission of knowledge and cultural symbiosis. Arab Geographers’ Knowledge of Southern India is a construction of India from the narratives of famous Arab travelers. A fresh perception on the land of many cultures and some iconic navigators whose mission it was to pollinate knowledge and culture.

Muslim Architecture of South India
Author: Mehrdad Shokoohy
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136499849
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
This book reinterprets the Muslim architecture and urban planning of South India, looking beyond the Deccan to the regions of Tamil Nadu and Kerala - the historic coasts of Coromandel and Malabar. For the first time a detailed survey of the Muslim monuments of the historic ports and towns demonstrates a rich and diverse architectural tradition entirely independent from the better known architecture of North India and the Deccan sultanates. The book, extensively illustrated with photographs and architectural drawings, widens the horizons of our understanding of Muslim India and will no doubt pave new paths for future studies in the field.
