In this book, jointly edited by Thomas de Bruijn and Allison Busch, Hindi authors rub shoulders with their Persian counterparts in the courts of Mughal India; the fame of Mirabai, a poetess from Rajasthan, travels to Punjab; the sayings of Kabir are found to be as difficult to pin down as the wandering holy men who transmitted them. Drawing on new archives in several Indian languages, Culture and Circulation presents fresh ideas that will be of interest to scholars of Indian literature, religious studies, and early modern history.

Soft cover. Condition: New. This book about the classical Hindi tradition brings alive the world of Mughal-era poetry and court culture. Allison Busch draws on literary, social, and intellectual history to elucidate one of premodern India's most significant textual traditions, documenting the rise of a new type of professional Hindi writer. She also offers insights into the motives that animated this literary community and its patrons. She examines how riti literature served as an important aesthetic and political resource in the multicultural world of Mughal India, looking in detail at Keshavdas, whose seminal Rasikpriya (Handbook for Poetry Connoisseurs, 1591) was the catalyst for a new Hindi classicism. The circulation of Hindi literature among diverse communities during this period is testament to a remarkable pluralism. Modern Hindi and Urdu, this book shows, cannot be understood as 'Hindu' and 'Muslim' languages.
