๐ The Scoop
Symbols of Substance is a groundbreaking analysis of the political culture and political economy of the small Nayaka states that emerged and flourished in the Tamil country in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. An unusual product of triple authorship, the book examines how such states emerged, what their ideological moorings were, and what they have left us in terms of a cultural heritage. In so doing, it overturns the clichรฉ of a South India in terminal decline after 1565, which had long dominated the narratives of both historians and popular writers.
Genre: History / Asia / Central Asia (fancy, right?)
