Açıklama

"A Forgotten Empire (Vijayanagar): A Contribution to the History of India" by Robert Sewell is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book delves into the rise and significance of the Vijayanagar Empire, a major Hindu kingdom in South India that emerged in the 14th century as a bulwark against the Islamic invasions from the north. Through translations of two Portuguese chronicles from the period, the author illuminates the grandeur of the empire's capital and the political dynamics of the time, including conflicts and interactions with neighboring Islamic states. The opening of the book establishes a foundation for understanding the historical context of the Vijayanagar Empire, particularly highlighting the significant year of 1336 when the kingdom was founded. It introduces key figures from the chronicles, such as the early rulers Harihara and Bukka, and the challenges they faced against the encroaching forces of Muhammad Taghlaq of Delhi.
