About the Book:
This book explores the shifting meanings and significance of Maritime India during the Early Modern period, focusing on the efforts of the Mughals and the Portuguese to control its vast, resource-rich enclaves and profitable neighbourhoods. The book examines how these two powerful empires, with their distinct agendas, sought to dominate and reshape the maritime landscape of India, influencing its economic, cultural, and political development.
The author delves into the complex dynamics of Mughal and Portuguese interactions with Maritime India, highlighting their competing strategies for control and the consequences these efforts had on the region. By analyzing this period of intense colonial and imperial activity, the book provides a nuanced understanding of how the global powers sought to harness the wealth of the Indian Ocean world and the resulting impact on India's maritime identity.
