Hyderabad: a Biography, 2006, 423 Pages, Narendra Luther, 0195675355, 9780195675351, Oxford University Press, 2006 Hyderabad: A Biography, 2006, 423 pages, Narendra Luther, 0195675355, 9780195675351, Oxford University Press, 2006 DOWNLOAD http://bit.ly/1U0v8PE http://goo.gl/RH4fH http://www.barnesandnoble.com/s/?store=book&keyword=Hyderabad%3A+A+Biography Muhammad Quil Qutb Shah built the beautiful city of Hyderabad as a 'replica of heaven on earth'. It was plundered in 1687 by the Mughal forces led by Aurangzeb. After a long period of neglect it rose to be the capital of the expansive Deccan province. The city witnessed phenomenal expansion under Asaf Jah I, and also the dissipation of his legacy. The author acknowledges the most unique feature of this city--the continuance of its cosmopolitan character in the face of communal pressures. He attributes this amalgam of Hindu and Muslim cultures to the mixed 'parentage'--Hind and Muslim--of its rulers. This volume spans the history of the city from its birth up to the elections of 2004. This book combines the sweep of popular history of the city with the rigour of historiography to make it a fascinating reading of the cultural and political history of the city of Hyderabad.

INTRODUCTION 1.1. Profile of the Study Area 1.1.1. Hyderabad Hyderabad, the capital of Andhra Pradesh (see maps pp. 5-7), is the fifth largest city in India with a population of 4.2 million and an ancient culture and civilization. Hyderabad is proud of its wealth in varieties of cultures and the unique position it has in the history of the country. This cosmopolitan city is also known as the city of minarets due to the presence of several mosques displaying huge minarets. Art, architecture, culture, groups of people, and religions form a unique blend in Hyderabad. Over the centuries, this variety evolved into a great integrated cultural landscape. Charminar, the four-towered structure standing at the intersection of the four main streets of the city, has become the symbol of the city, like the Eiffel Tower of Paris, the Statue of Liberty in New York, or West Minister Abbey in London. Charminar, according to Lynton and Rajan (1987:3), “had been built in 1589 by Mohammad-Quli Qutub Shah, the king whose seat was Golconda Fort some fifteen miles away (from Hyderabad city), to commemorate the spot where he caught his first glimpse of Bhagmati, the Hindu girl who captured his heart and in time became his queen”.

Temples were built and managed as part of the Indo-Muslim or Mughlai urban court economy in Hyderabad, and temple patronage reflected the shift- ing patterns of prominence as one high-ranking Hindu noble or official replaced another and secured state support for major temples. Rather than defending Hyderabad state’s policies and practices with respect to Hindu institutions and events, this article shows the development and implementation of an Indo-Muslim ruling tradition as Muslim rulers interacted with non-Muslims to become part of a distinctively South Asian tra- dition of secularism or pluralism. Rather than syncretism or synthesis, I emphasize ‘translation’, appropriate to the time and place, as the concept best able to capture the pluralism of India’s historical Indo-Muslim cultures.

Dr Vinita Pandey† Abstract In its historic evolution and development, the Hyderabad city has experienced many changes since its foundation as the capital of the medieval Kingdom of Golconda in the 16th century to its present status as the metropolis of a modern state. Each historic phase of development has significantly influenced its physical, social, economic and cultural growth. Hyderabad, under the influence of Deccan, Persian and indigenous culture, synthesised and evolved its very own Hyderabadi Tehzeeb. It truly represented the assimilation (yet uniqueness) of diverse cultures which inhabited Hyderabad. More than four hundred years later, HITEC city Hyderabad today presents a different picture. Whether it is its structural and spatial expansion, infrastructural development or its socio-cultural ethos, contemporary Hyderabad has evolved phenomenally and for many natives beyond recognition. Using ethnographic approach and secondary data, the paper introspects whether the City of Pearls has retained its unblotted tolerance and Hyderabadi Tehzeeb or has given up to the challenges of modern and globalizing times. Culturally, what is it that the natives of ‘Bhagyanagar’ irrespective of their caste, creed, gender, region and religion miss in modern Hyderabad.

  • The Meaning of Muslim Identity in Princely Hyderabad: from the Telangana Armed Struggle to the Police Action
    The Meaning of Muslim Identity in Princely Hyderabad: From the Telangana Armed Struggle to the Police Action A thesis submitted by Sairah Husain In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Tufts University May 2013 Adviser: Ayesha Jalal Abstract: In this MA thesis, I examine the history of the princely state of Hyderabad from 1927 to 1951. Drawing from memoirs, newspapers, oral histories, and autobiographies, I find that in these years leading up to the forcible accession of Hyderabad to the Indian Union in a police action, communitarian rhetoric was employed in the Indian nationalist and non-nationalist cases so as to mobilize religious communities for politically expedient ends. However, in the case of a peasant revolt in the state, the Telangana Armed Struggle, communitarianism as a phenomenon did not play a role as the movement was multi-faith in character. Furthermore, during this struggle, religious identity, particularly Muslim identity, was articulated and framed in class terms. ii Table of Contents: Chapter 1: Introduction – Hyderabad in 1 Princely State Scholarship Chapter 2: Indian Nationalist Narratives and 11 Hyderabad – “Communalism” within the State Chapter 3: Pakistan and Hyderabad – Muslim 19 Identity and Differing Narratives of Events in Hyderabad Leading up to the Police Action Chapter 4: Muslim “Solidarity”: The Case of 28 Hyderabad India during the 1946- 1951 Telangana Armed Struggle Chapter 5: Conclusions 41 Bibliography 45 iii Chapter 1: Introduction – Hyderabad in Princely State Scholarship Princely State Historiography: Scholarship on Indian princely states has transformed over the past three decades.
