Genres

Deccan

Deccan as a book category groups works that focus on the Deccan Plateau and its peoples, histories, languages and landscapes—from the ancient and medieval courts of Hampi and the Deccan Sultanates through Maratha, Nizam and colonial eras to contemporary urban and rural life. It includes historical and literary fiction, regional memoirs, travel writing, cultural history, archaeology, culinary and folk traditions, and scholarship that explores themes of syncretism, multilingualism (Marathi, Telugu, Kannada, Urdu and Persian influences), trade and migration, water and agrarian ecologies, forts and temple architecture, and city-making in Hyderabad, Pune, Bijapur and beyond. The category signals richly layered, place-centered narratives that foreground local identities and cross-cultural exchange while appealing to readers interested in regional South Asian history, culture and landscape.
