the rise,growth and decline of indo-persian literature

This monumental book deals with the glorious heritage of Indo-Persian language and literature which dominated the literary and cultural firmament of the Indian subcontinent from the eleventh to the nineteenth centuries, the influence it exercised on the formation of Hindi/Urdu and other regional languages, and then its decline set in in the wake of establishment of colonial rule in the Indian subcontinent. The book also throws light on the legacy bestowed by Persian on the growth of India's composite culture.
