Soft cover. Condizione: New. There are many missing pieces in the jigsaw puzzle that is ancient India, but those we have yield a rich tapestry. 'The oldest surviving love graffiti on a cave wall immortalizing an intimate bond in the third century BCE; charred seeds and chewed animal bones that provide evidence of a peoples' food… obsessions; architectural minutiae that point to the alarming regression of a civilization's potty habits; intriguing sculptures that reveal myriad facets of the human-animal relationship.In Time Pieces, award-winning historian Nayanjot Lahiri whimsically sifts through intricate clues left behind by the early inhabitants of the Indian subcontinent - in plaques and inscriptions, fragments of jewellery, bones and tools, poetry, art and pottery - to reveal to us our ancient land in all its variety, splendour, complexity and contradictions. Sparkling with wit and reflective of a scholar's keen and curious energy, this delightful volume seamlessly connects the past to the present and a civilization to the world beyond.

Soft cover. Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: New. 1st Edition. Ancient rulers regarded him as the iconic Buddhist king. Jawaharlal Nehru considered him the greatest emperor of all time. H.G. Wells portrayed him as the sole shining star of antiquity. But who was the flesh-and-blood Ashoka? The third emperor of the Maury…a dynasty, Ashoka ruled an empire encompassing most of India as well as its western borderlands. He was normal as a ruler of uncommon ambition, but utterly unusual as the pioneer of a model of humane governance. In fact the candour and emotion of his messages on stone show him less as a political figure than as a self-reflective individual. Recovering Ashoka s life and times from legend, Nayanjot Lahiri crafts a wonderful biography of this most extraordinary emperor. She provides him with contextual flesh, teasing out his psychology and personality from his edicts and archaeological data about life in India over the last few centuries BCE. This is the most historically rich and readable book on Ashoka and his context.

In the autumn of 1924 the scholar archaeologist John Marshall made an announcement that at one stroke dramatically altered existing perceptions of South Asias antiquity he proclaimed the discovery of the civilization of the Indus valley Within weeks Marshalls news was recognized as conveying one of t…he most monumental discoveries in the history of human civilization the world over it became apparent that this was on the same scale as the findings of Heinrich Schliemann who unearthed Troy and Arthur Evans who dug out Minoan Crete The Troy and Crete stories have been well told several times over But a detailed archivally rich and completely accessible narrative of the people processes places and puzzles that led up to Marshalls proclamation on the Indus civilization has like the civilization itself long remained buried Now for the first time in this book we have the whole story enchantingly told Nayanjot Lahiri has mined and deployed as never before bureaucratic memoranda colonial noting marginal letters and piecemeal musings within the institutions and in the work of individuals who collectively discovered the Indian subcontinents earliest cities Spanning nearly a century this is a tale of men such as the colourful collector traveller Charles Masson who first described Harappa the archaeological pioneer Alexander Cunningham Harappas first excavator discerning diggers such as Daya Ram Sahni Rakhaldas Banerji and Madho Sarup Vats who uncovered Harappa and Mohenjodaro the Italian linguist turned explorer Luigi Pio Tessitori who unearthed Kalibangan but never lived to tell the tale of his exploits government officials of all kinds who as self taught archaeologists stumbled upon significant clues in their work arenas and presiding over the whole process a Cambridge classicist brought by Lord Curzon to India as Director General of the Archaeological Survey of India John Marshall who finally pieced into place a maze of enigmatic data on the long forgotten Indus civilization Finding Forgotten Cities combines an astonishing amount of detail hitherto undisclosed on the lives and times of these men It comprises a powerful narrative history of how Indias antiquity was unexpectedly unearthed It will interest every serious reader of history and anyone who likes to read an utterly fascinating story 410 pp.

Soft cover. Condizione: New. 1st Edition. Iconic sites and monumental subjects in Indian history are the core of this fascinating collection of essays. Nayanjot Lahiri ranges from the Indus cities of Harappa and Mohenjodaro to Buddhist Mahabodhi and Sanchi, from the political imprint of the 1857 revolt on bits of Delhi to the pa…rtitioning of India s archaeological heritage in 1947. Archaeologists find unexpected things during their digs-as does Lahiri. By unearthing new archival material and by looking at the ways in which the personal and the professional mix in their writings, she gives us new facets of two iconic scholars of ancient India, the archaeologist John Marshall and the historian D.D. Kosambi. Both are crucial figures: Marshall headed the group that discovered the Indus civilization; Kosambi changed the way in which ancient Indian history was written after Independence. Lahiri gives us pictures of them that no one else has. Scholarly, perceptive, and entertaining, Marshalling the Past offers readings of ancient India and its modern histories that will confirm Nayanjot Lahiri s reputation as one of the most readable historians of her generation.

Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: As New. 1st Edition. In the third century BCE, Ashoka ruled an empire encompassing much of modern-day India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh. During his reign, Buddhism proliferated across the South Asian subcontinent, and future generations of Asians came to see him… as the ideal Buddhist king. Disentangling the threads of Ashoka's life from the knot of legend that surrounds it, Nayanjot Lahiri presents a vivid biography of this extraordinary Indian emperor and deepens our understanding of a legacy that extends beyond the bounds of Ashoka's lifetime and dominion. At the center of Lahiri's account is the complex personality of the Maurya dynasty's third emperor―a strikingly contemplative monarch, at once ambitious and humane, who introduced a unique style of benevolent governance. Ashoka's edicts, carved into rock faces and stone pillars, reveal an eloquent ruler who, unusually for the time, wished to communicate directly with his people. The voice he projected was personal, speaking candidly about the watershed events in his life and expressing his regrets as well as his wishes to his subjects. Ashoka's humanity is conveyed most powerfully in his tale of the Battle of Kalinga. Against all conventions of statecraft, he depicts his victory as a tragedy rather than a triumph―a shattering experience that led him to embrace the Buddha's teachings. Ashoka in Ancient India breathes new life into a towering figure of the ancient world, one who, in the words of Jawaharlal Nehru, "was greater than any king or emperor. Asd new, unread, first edition, first printing, in as new, mylar-protected dust jacket. {Not remainder-marked or price-clipped} NF99.

Soft cover. Condizione: New. A century ago, in the autumn of 1924, the scholar-archaeologist John Marshall made an announcement that dramatically altered existing perceptions of South Asia's antiquity: he proclaimed the discovery of "the civilization of the Indus Valley." This was seen as monumental on the same scale as the find…ings of Heinrich Schliemann who unearthed Troy, and Arthur Evans who dug out Minoan Crete. The Troy and Crete stories have been well told, but a detailed, archivally rich, and completely accessible narrative of the people, processes, places, and puzzles that led up to Marshall's proclamation has long remained unknown. Now, for the first time here, we have the whole story enchantingly told. This New Centenary Edition of Finding Forgotten Cities includes all the detail of the first edition (2005) with a wealth of new material on the aftermath of the discovery. This is a book that will interest every serious reader of history and all who want an utterly fascinating story.
