TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE l THJt Emperor Akbar (reign 1556-1605 A.D.) set the example of having a detailed history of his reign written by official command. The result was the A~~1!'!g;h or 'Book of Akbar' of. ~uly-)y:l (completed by other hands after that author's death). Then came the Emperor Jahangir" who dictated his own memoirs, known as the Tuzuk-i-Jahangiri, and therefore no official Jahiingir-niimah had to be written about him. This book, however, combines the literary characteristics of an autobiography with those of an official history, or in other words, it gives the Emperor's own reflections and feelings as well as an objective record of the events of his reign. Indeed, in this reign, the literary type of the Mughal official histories was determined for the future, as was exemplified by the Piidishiihniimah (Shah Jahan), the (Alamgir-1Ui.mah (of Aurangzib, completed by the Maasir-i-Alamgiri), the Bahadur Shah-niimah (Shah Alam I) and later attempts like the Tiirikh-i-Ahmad Shahi and the Tiirikh-i-(Alamgir $iini.

While consultation of contemporary sources is called for to reflect upon these key issues, it tends to be under- used by modern historians.

  • HISTORY ANCIENT PERIOD in the Epic Period, the Region Covered By
    HISTORY ANCIENT PERIOD In the epic period, the region covered by the present district of Gorakhpur, known as Karapatha, which formed part of the kingdom of Kosala, an important centre of Aryan culture and civilization. The renowned ascetic Gorakh Nath gave name and fame to this district by practicing austerities on the spot where the famous temple named after him stands. It appears that the earliest known monarch ruling over this region with his capital at Ayodhya, was Iksvaku, who founded the solar dynasty of Ksatriyas. It produced a number of illustrious kings till the accession of Ram, who was the greatest ruler of this dynasty. Ram had divided the kingdom, during his lifetime, into small principalities. He coronated his eldest son Kusa as the king of Kusavati present Kushinagar which lay in the Gorakhpur district till 1946. After Ram's renunciation of the world Kusa left Kusawati (Kushinagar) and repaired to Ayodhya. His cousin, Chandraketu, son of Lakshmana, even the epithet of malla (valiant) in the Ramayan, thereupon took possession of this region. The Mahabharata mentions that at the Rajasuya (imperial) sacrifice performed by Yudhisthira, a behest to conquer the east was given to Bhimasena who in turn subjugated the principality of Gopalak (identified with Gopalpur of Bansgaon tahsil). Close to Gopalpur at Bhimtola, Bhimasena is said to have reposed after his victory. The discovery of a series of enormous mounds at Gopalpur and around it suggests that the places has been old sites of extensive cities. A few development in the political history of the district during the post- Mahabharata period is the functioning of a number of republics under the sovereignty of the kingdom of Kosala.

For citation advice, visit: http://blogs.uc.ac.uk/eicah/usingthewebsite. Coat of Arms of the Cossimbazar Raj Coat of Arms of Sykes of Basildon The Seal It is small, its total height no more than 40mm, the seal itself only 25mm by 20mm. The seal is engraved in steel and is set in a holder probably made of gun metal, the holder tapering pyramid-like to a tiny swivel which might have been used to hold a cord. Nothing much to look at on first appearance yet this seal carried with it the authority of one of the most powerful men in mid eighteenth century Bengal. 1 The East India Company at Home, 1757-1857 – UCL History The seal was read by Professor A.M.K.Masumi, William Jones Professor at the Persian Department of the Asiatic Society of Calcutta, on 28 July 1995. It is written in a script called Nastaylick, the name given to the form of old Persian which had been used in seals and coins since the latter part of the Emperor Akbar’s reign (1556-1605) and continued to be used as the language of administration in 18th century Mughal India. The inscription reads from right to left “Francis Sykes (written as Sikshi) – 6”.

This ruling elite constituting of various ethnic group based on class, political sphere. In Indian sub-continent they served the empire/state most loyally and obediently specially under the Great Mughals. They not only helped in the expansion of the Empire by leading campaign and crushing revolt for the consolidation of the empire, but also made remarkable and laudable contribution in the smooth running of the state machinery and played key role in the development of social life and composite culture. Mughal Emperor Akbar had organized the nobility based on mgnsabdari system and kept a watchful eye over the various groups, by introducing local forces. He had tried to keep a check and balance over the activities, which was carried by his able successors till the death of Aurangzeb.

  • Bangladesh: Partitions, Nationalisms and Legacies for State-Building
    Bangladesh: Partitions, Nationalisms and Legacies for State-Building Mushtaq H. Khan Department of Economics, SOAS, University of London July 2010 Executive Summary The political economy of developing countries is characterized by the clientelist organization of politics. This perspective gives us a theoretical model of a clientelist political settlement as a framework for analysing the interaction between politics and economics in developing countries. We look at the emergence of Bangladesh out of two violent partitions in 1947 and 1971 through this lens to address a number of puzzles. Why did these particular nationalisms emerge when they did when there was no prior history of Bengali Muslim nationalism in this area before the 1930s? Why did the achievement of the most religiously and ethnically homogenous state in South Asia not result in stability in 1971? And what is the source of the persistent failure of modern Bangladeshi political parties to achieve credible elections? The interaction between a clientelist organization of politics and changing economic opportunities and challenges provide a coherent and systematic set of answers to these and other questions. While the organization of clientelist politics had many standard features in East Bengal, a number of specific characteristics forced clientelist factions to unite against intransigent dominant classes unwilling to make distributive compromises in time. Some of the contemporary ‘no-compromise’ attitudes of Bangladeshi political factions can be directly traced to this historical experience. This analysis directs attention away from good governance reforms as a way of addressing political crises in Bangladesh. Many good governance goals are not implementable in a clientelist political settlement.
