1 lingua: inglese Legat. edit. rigida in tela con sovrac. illustrata, cm 28x22, pag. 376, con 172 tavole a col. e 172 illustraz. in b.n. - A cura di Frank Ames - Third edition 1997 - Monografia sul tessuto del Kashmir che conobbe nell'800 una forte popolarità in Europa. Terza edizione arricchita di capitoli sulla creazione di tessuti di ispirazione indiana in Francia e in Inghilterra - This book tells the full story of the Kashmir shawl, how it migrated to Europe in the 1800s and how the key pattern of the boteh evolved. With its beginnings under the Mughal emperors in Kashmir, the industry continued under Afghan rule, with an explosion of new designs during the Sikh period, until it fell into decline under the rule of the Dogra Rajahs. Frank Ames, a textile dealer himself, stresses the importance of the French connection in the nineteenth century and the cross fertilisation of ideas engendered by the strong demands of European fashion whose love of the Oriental produced the rival Jacquard shawl. Changing fashions at the end of that century saw the demise of the shawl. The shawls are classified by stylistic period and an illustrated guide is included in the book to show the chronological development of designs - Perfetto stato.

It takes a fresh look at the perennial problem of the divide between the Hindus and Muslims and the partition of India it led to. Historical reasons have been analysed in the study in considerable depth and conclusions have been drawn. It debunks the efforts made by some apologists of Jinnah to shift the blame for partition on to others' shoulders and delineates the growh of separtism from the earliest times. The doctrine of two nations led to the creation and division of Pakistan and the inevitable division of the Muslims of the sub-continent into three nations. Historical forces which helped in the creation of a separate nation have been studied. About The Author:- An experienced media man scholar and author, S. C.
