  • Afghan Caravan Trade and Imperialism in India1
    Páginas 00-00 Chungara Revista de Antropología Chilena AFGHAN CARAVAN TRADE AND IMPERIALISM IN INDIA1 COMERCIO DE CARAVANAS AFGANAS E IMPERIALISMO EN INDIA André Wink2 It is often supposed that Afghanistan has historically been the 'graveyard of empires’. 'It is today's textbook example of a 'failed state.' Afghans, however, should be considered among the most important empire builders of Asia in the 15th and 16th centuries. In this paper it is shown that in South Asia, the physical infrastructure of caravanserais and roads created by Afghan nomadic caravan traders known as powindas was fundamental to the development of the empires of the Indo-Afghans (1451-1556), as well as to the Mughal empire (1526-1857), and ultimately the British Raj of the 19th and 20th centuries. Key words: Afghanistan, India, caravan, Mughal Empire, powinda. A menudo se supone que Afganistán ha sido históricamente un "cementerio de imperios" y se presenta en los manuales como ejemplo de “sistemas estatales fracasados”. Los afganos, sin embargo, deberían ser considerados los más importantes constructores de imperios de Asia del sur en los siglos XV y XVI. En este estudio se muestra que en el sur de Asia, la infraestructura física de caravaneros y caminos creados por las caravanas nómadas de mercaderes afganos conocidos como powindas fue fundamental para el desarrollo de los imperios Indo-Afganos (1451-1556), así como para el imperio de Mughal (1526-1857), y finalmente el Raj británico de los siglos XIX y XX. Palabras claves: Afganistán, India, caravanas, imperio Mughal, powinda. In the medieval (7th-15th) centuries, Afghanistan shatter zone running from the Makran coast on the was a (semi-) arid and in many places cold country, Arabian Sea to the Pamir Knot and the Karakorum a wild assemblage of hills, mountains covered with Range in Central Asia.

  • Early Modern Japan
    December 1995 Early Modern Japan KarenWigen) Duke University The aims of this paperare threefold: (I) to considerwhat Westernhistorians mean when they speakof Early Modern Japan,(2) to proposethat we reconceivethis period from the perspectiveof world networks history, and (3) to lay out someof the advantagesI believe this offers for thinking aboutSengoku and Tokugawasociety. The idea that Japan had an early modern period is gradually becoming common in every sector of our field, from institutional to intellectual history. Yet what that means has rarely been discussed until now, even in the minimal sense of determining its temporal boundaries: I want to thank David Howell and James Ketelaar for raising the issue in this forum, prompting what I hope will become an ongoing conversation about our periodization practices. To my knowledge, the sole attempt in English to trace the intellectual genealogy of this concept is John Hall's introduction to the fourth volume of the Cambridge History of Japan-a volume that he chose to title Early Modern Japan. Hall dates this expression to the 1960s, when "the main concern of Western scholars of the Edo period was directed toward explaining Japan's rapid modernization." Its ascendancy was heralded by the 1968 publication of Studies in the Institutional History of Early Modern Japan, which Hall co-edited with Marius Jansen. "By declaring that the Tokugawa period should be called Japan's 'early modern' age," he reflects, "this volume challenged the common practice of assuming that Japan during the Edo period was still fundamentally feudal.") Although Hall sees the modernization paradigm as having been superseded in later decades, he nonetheless reads the continuing popularity of the early modern designation as a sign that most Western historians today see the Edo era as "more modern than feudal.',4 This notion is reiterated in even more pointed terms by Wakita Osamu in the same volume.

  • The Golden Triangle (India-China-Indonesia) Maritime Cultural Relations (A Critical Analysis on Kitab 'Ajaib Al- Hind by Buzur
    Proceeding of the International Seminar and Conference 2015: The Golden Triangle (Indonesia-India-Tiongkok) Interrelations in Religion, Science, Culture, and Economic. University of Wahid Hasyim, Semarang, Indonesia. August 28-30, 2015 Paper No. C.5 The Golden Triangle (India-China-Indonesia) Maritime Cultural Relations (A Critical Analysis on Kitab ‘Ajaib al- Hind by Buzurg Ibn Shahriyār (d.399 H/1009 M) Nanang Nurcholis University of Wahid Hasyim X/22 Menoreh Tengah Street, Sampangan, Semarang (50236), Indonesia [email protected] Abstract-Historically the Golden Triangle (India-China-Indonesia) has been engaged in sea journeys since very early times. The Indian Ocean in fact unified the maritime culture of seafarers and merchants belonging to Arabian, Persian, Indian, East African backgrounds, and even from Southeast Asia though socially and ethnically diverse. The early maritime cultural ties of India-China-Indonesia might be traced back in Kitab ‘Ajaib al-Hind by the Persian sea captain Buzurg Ibn Shahriyār (d.399/1009). It is one of the earliest Arabic tales dealing mainly with the Indian Ocean i.e. from East Africa to China, the Arabian-Persian Gulf and the Red Sea. Additionally, it also tells us the navigation activities in Malay region especially in Indonesia. The study conducts an analysis of maritime life in the Western Indian Ocean as portrayed in the mariners‟ tales of Buzurg b. Shahriyār. Having selected the terminology as found in Kitab Aja’ib al-Hind and conducting synchronic investigation, the analysis will run as follows: a) the textual reference from which the term has been extracted; b) a translation of the passage containing the term; c) a brief summary of the context of the passage, and d) a discussion of the term in question.

    Asian Review of World Histories 4:2 (July 2016), 179-189 © 2016 The Asian Association of World Historians doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.12773/arwh.2016.4.2.179 Introduction New Approaches to Pre-Modern Maritime Networks Masaki MUKAI Doshisha University, Japan In the field of world history research the Roman and Mongol Empires are often described as characterised by contact and in- tegration between distant regions of the Old World. It has long been known from historical and literary sources that port cities on the southern seaboard of the Eurasian landmass were con- nected by a wide-stretching maritime network or series of net- works during the above periods. However, despite recent ad- vances—stemming from archaeological research—in our knowledge of the material aspect of this exchange, deeper analy- sis of the structure and characteristics of the Eurasian maritime network(s) has been hampered by the relatively sparse, frag- mented nature of the data. The combination of methodological advances, such as the introduction of network analysis to the historical sciences, with new finds and advances in the fields of epigraphy and palaeogra- phy makes it possible to obtain a new picture of EurasianDownloaded from Brill.com10/01/2021mari- 03:46:54AM via free access 180 | INTRODUCTION time history. Such studies have the potential to increase the breadth and depth of our knowledge of seaborne networks in the pre-modern period, and to contribute new material and meth- odological perspectives for the comparative study of continuity in maritime networks from ancient to modern times. I. BACKGROUND Fernand Braudel’s monumental work, The Mediterranean and the Mediterranean World in the Age of Philip II (published in French in 1949 and in English in 1972-3), exerted a wide and long-lasting influence on historians working on mega-regions interconnected by maritime networks.

  • Mughals at War: Babur, Akbar and the Indian Military Revolution, 1500 - 1605
    Mughals at War: Babur, Akbar and the Indian Military Revolution, 1500 - 1605 A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Andrew de la Garza Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: John F. Guilmartin, Advisor; Stephen Dale; Jennifer Siegel Copyright by Andrew de la Garza 2010 Abstract This doctoral dissertation, Mughals at War: Babur, Akbar and the Indian Military Revolution, examines the transformation of warfare in South Asia during the foundation and consolidation of the Mughal Empire. It emphasizes the practical specifics of how the Imperial army waged war and prepared for war—technology, tactics, operations, training and logistics. These are topics poorly covered in the existing Mughal historiography, which primarily addresses military affairs through their background and context— cultural, political and economic. I argue that events in India during this period in many ways paralleled the early stages of the ongoing “Military Revolution” in early modern Europe. The Mughals effectively combined the martial implements and practices of Europe, Central Asia and India into a model that was well suited for the unique demands and challenges of their setting. ii Dedication This document is dedicated to John Nira. iii Acknowledgments I would like to thank my advisor, Professor John F. Guilmartin and the other members of my committee, Professors Stephen Dale and Jennifer Siegel, for their invaluable advice and assistance. I am also grateful to the many other colleagues, both faculty and graduate students, who helped me in so many ways during this long, challenging process.

  • The Military Economy of Seventeenth Century Sri Lanka: Rhetoric and Authority in a Time of Conquest
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles The Military Economy of Seventeenth Century Sri Lanka: Rhetoric and Authority in a Time of Conquest A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in History by Cenan Pirani 2016 © Copyright by Cenan Pirani 2016 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION The Military Economy of Seventeenth Century Sri Lanka: Rhetoric and Authority in a Time of Conquest by Cenan Pirani Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Los Angeles, 2016 Professor Sanjay Subrahmanyam, Chair From the end of the sixteenth century, the overseas administrative arm of the Portuguese Crown, the Estado da Índia Oriental, sought to gain complete territorial control of the island of Sri Lanka and outlined the tenets of the military project dubbed in administrative letters, “the Conquest of the Island of Ceylon”. Such efforts however would be impeded by military rebellions (ie. mutinies and desertions) by native military personnel in Portuguese service, where a rebellion that occurred in 1630 severely weakened the Estado's position in the island from which it could not recover. The specific event, the death of a Portuguese general at the hands of his own Christianized native troop, left a deep imprint on Portuguese memory. Decades later, the chronicler Fernão de Queiroz claimed the event, which paved the way for the European's eventual removal from the island by 1658, bore testament to the unbridgeable cultural and religious schism between the Portuguese and the native Sinhala people, an established viewpoint in current historiography. This study focuses attention on the documentation in Portuguese, English, Spanish, and ii Sinhalese written during the more active moments of the conquest period (1580-1640) in order to test such well-established views.
