Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. When the great kingdom of Pagan declined politically in the late thirteenth and early fourteenth centuries, its territory devolved into three centers of power and a period of transition occurred. Then two new kingdoms arose: the First Ava Dynasty in Upper Myanmar and the First Pegu Dynasty in Lower Myanmar. Both originated around the second half of the fourteenth century, reached their pinnacles in the fifteenth, and declined before the first half of the sixteenth century was over. Their story is the only missing piece in Myanmars mainstream historiography, a gap this book is designed to fill.Renowned historian Michael Aung-Thwin reconstructs the chronology of this nearly two-hundred-year period while challenging a number of long-held beliefs. Contrary to conventional histories, he contends that Ava was the continuation of an old kingdom (Pagan) led by its traditional ethno-linguistic group, the Burmese speakers, while Pegu was a new kingdom led by more recent arrivals, the Mon speakers. Although both kingdoms shared many cultural components of the "classical" Pagan tradition, Ava was inland and agrarian, while Pegu was maritime and commercial, so that each was shaped by very different geopolitical and economic environments. In that difference rests the dynamism of their "upstream-downstream" relationship, which, thereafter, became a regular historical pattern in Myanmar history, represented today by inland Naypyidaw and "coastal" Yangon.Original in conception and impressive in scope, this well written book not only fills in the history of early modern Myanmar but places it in a broad interpretive context based on years of familiarity with a wealth of primary sources. Full of arresting anecdotes and colorful personalities, it represents an important contribution to Myanmar studies that will not easily be superseded. Original in conception and impressive in scope, this book not only fills in the history of early modern Myanmar but places it in a broad interpretive context based on years of familiarity with a wealth of primary sources. It represents an important contribution to Myanmar studies that will not easily be superseded. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Soft cover. Condition: Good. Irrigation in the Heartland of Burma: Irrigation in the Heartland of Burma: By: Aung-Thwin, Michael Foundations of the Pre-Colonial Burmese State, Occasional Paper No. 15, 1990 For much of the monarchical period, the most stable component of the pre-colonial economy of Burma was the production of paddy in the irrigated plains of Upper Burma in what is commonly known as the dry zone. Virtually all known dynasties in Burmese history since the last two centuries of the first millennium B.C. have acknowledged that reality by establishing their capitals in, and therefore basing their political existence on, these areas watered by perennial tributaries of the Irrawaddy.
