Urbanization Through Ages: Shades in Indian History addresses themes such as the roles of cities as capitals reflecting the emotions of heterogenous populations; insights from the remnants of old fort cities; impact of modernity on urban identity; detailed studies of medieval buildings and monuments, analysis of technological application in monuments through medieval archaeology; and the dynamics of medieval urban settlements
By tracing the transformation of city spaces through facts and analysis, interpretations and new insights, this collection will enrich the ambit of research being done on Indian history. Additionally, the volume would be also of interest for a general reader who is interested in tracing urbanity in Indian history, apart from the scholars and students of history.
