South India under Vijayanagara: Art and Archaeology

Anila Verghese (Author) Anna L Dallapiccola (Author)

Synopsis This book is highlights the recent multidimensional and interdisciplinary approach in the academia. The contributors, leading academics from around the world, use textual material to corroborate the data provided by archaeology and rise new questions. Divided into two equal parts, the first focuses on Hampi, a World Heritage Site. It examines Vijayanagara scholarship, archaeological work, heritage site management, conservation, photography, epigraphy, sculptures, and sacred topography. The second links the city with the wider regions of the empire. It discusses the development of regional art and architecture, Vijayanagara and post Vijayanagara paintings, Shaivite ascetic iconography, and Vijayanagara coinage.
