About This Item
Mumbai: Marg Publications, 2001. Hardcover. VG-/VG- ownership bookplate on ffep, corner wear and bumping to boards, light wear to edges and corners of dust jacket.. Photographs by Clare Arni. "For more than twenty years now, an international team of researchers has been investigating the layout, architecture, and art of Hampi, identified with the 14 to 16 century imperial city of Vijayanagara. John M. Fritz and George Michell, who are co-directors of this project and also guest editors of this volume, offer an introduction which gives an overview of the exploration and documentation of this largest and grandest of all South Indian urban sites, taking into account the most recent discoveries and interpretations. In order to illustrate these advances, they have assembled a group of scholars with whom they have worked at Hampi, whose articles are included here. The considerable range of topics covered by these scholars fully illustrates the inter-disciplinary nature of the project." -Jacket.
