Hali, Mosaddas (1879) … Die Grenzen meiner Sprache bedeuten die Grenzen meiner Welt. (The limits of my language mean the limits of my world.) Ludwig Wittgenstein, Tractatus (1922) ⸪ In the last decades of the nineteenth century, Indians effectively stopped producing Persian prose after over eight hundred years of using the language for literature, statecraft, and science.1 At the public level, the obvious turning point was Persian’s administrative replacement by the East India Company with English and the vernaculars between 1832 and 1837.2 As Tariq Rahman This essay is dedicated to the memory of Omar Khalidi with whom I had hoped to write a short book about travelers from his beloved Hyderabad.

  • The Crafts and Textiles of Hyderabad and Telangana 11 Days/10 Nights
    The Crafts and Textiles of Hyderabad and Telangana 11 Days/10 Nights Activities Overnight Day 1 Fly U.S. to Hyderabad. Upon arrival, you will be transferred to Hyderabad your hotel by private car. Day 2 The city of Hyderabad was constructed in 1591 by King Hyderabad Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah of the Qutb Shahi dynasty, which ruled this region of the Deccan plateau from 1507 to 1687. During this time, the Sultanate faced numerous incursions by the Mughals and the Hindu Marathas. In 1724, the Mughal governor of the Deccan arrived to govern the city. His official title was the Nizam- ul-Muluk, or Administrator of the Realm. After the death of Emperor Aurangzeb, he declared his independence and established the Asaf Jahi dynasty of Nizams. The Nizams of Hyderabad were known for their tremendous wealth, which came from precious gems mined in nearby Golconda (see Day 3), the area's natural resources, a vibrant pearl trade, agricultural taxes and friendly cooperation with the British. Much of the architecture still existing in Hyderabad thus dates from the reigns of the Qutb Shahi Sultans or the Nizams. European influences were introduced by the British in the 19th and 20th centuries. At the center of old Hyderabad sits the Charminar, or "four towers," which dates to 1591 and is surrounded by a lively bazaar and numerous mosques and palaces. This morning we will enjoy a leisurely walk through the area. We will stop to admire the colorful tile mosaics found inside the Badshahi Ashurkhana. This Royal House of Mourning was built in 1595 as a congregation hall for Shia Muslims during Muharram.

  • Hyderabad City: History & Tourism
    Hyderabad City: History & Tourism Hyderabad is the capital city of the state of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh of South India. The city was founded on the River Musi by Muham- mad Quli Qutab Shah in 1591. The city is located on the Deccan Plateau and it is the fifth largest city of India. This cosmopolitan city is richly endowed with a variety of cultures. The city presents an attractive amal- gam of old world charm together with new world of hi-technology. Hyderabad city has a history of nearly four hundred years. All its began with the establishment of the Qutub Shahi dynasty. Quli Qutub Golconda Fort Shah seized the reins of power from the Bahamani Kingdom in 1512 and established the fortress city of Golconda. The history of Golconda goes back to the Kakatiya Dynasty in 11th century when they built a mud fortress on a hill called Golconda. Inadequacy of water, and fre- quent epidemics of plague and cholera persuaded Mohammed, the fifth Quli Qutub Shahi ruler to ven- ture outward to establish the new city with the Charminar at its cen- ter and with four great roads fan- ning out in the four cardinal direc- tions. The capital of the city was Bhagyanagar, which named after a royal beloved Bhagyamati. As she Charminar became the wife of Quli Qutub Shah, the sultan bestowed the title of Hy- 1 der Mahal on Bhagmati and thus was born Hyderabad. The Qutub Shahi rulers were great builders and patrons of learn- ing. Mohamed Quli Qutub Shah built the mosque, whose construc- tion began in 1614 and Aurangazeb completed it in 1687.
