Health behaviors and social determinants of health in children from under-resourced communities
The findings unraveled differences in health behaviors by weight status and SDOHs. SDOHs showed significant correlations with health behaviors, and these correlations were slightly greater in NW children. Weight status plays an important role in the relationship between health behaviors and SDOHs among children from under-resourced communities
Moral Hinterlands of Pre-Colonial Indian Cities
This paper explores relations between Western Indian cities and the supply areas connected to them. It begins with a discussion of the term “hinterland,” frequently used to describe these relations. As we shall see, the term greatly simplifies a complex set of relationships between cities, smaller towns, and rural villages. We will consider three case studies of money advanced against future assets. The first concerns the relation of thirteenth-c…
Babur
This article explores whether the concept of ‘friendship’ is a useful and basic category for the analysis of South Asian history. It begins with a variety of characteristics of relationships that social science has identified as friendship. It then explores the Baburnama, focusing on the social closeness or social distance of several groups and individuals, such as queens, allied leaders, blood kin, clerics and recruits. None were socially close …
In the Aura of the King
Shortly after the Battle of Taikota (1565) between Vijayanagara and the combined forces of the Deccan Sultanates an Ahmadnagar courtier wrote an illuminated mas̱navī (long poem) celebrating the victory and the bravery of his sultan. The unnoticed feature of the manuscript is that the symbols immediately surrounding the two opposing rulers are virtually identical, though one was Hindu and the other was Muslim. The article considers which symbols w…
Robes of honour
This volume analyzes the khilat ceremony, the tradition of honorific robing, prevalent in South Asia in the pre- colonial and colonial periods. The essays here examine the historical depth, geographic spread and general importance of the custom
Robes, Kings, and Semiotic Ambiguity
Rather than broad theory that seeks to explains all investiture in all settings, I propose a "middle range" hypothesis specific to the investiture tradition that began in Central Asia; it seeks to explain some of the major questions that arise from our essays: Why did this tradition survive in a recognizable form for almost two thousand years in spite of vast changes in governmental structure? Why did it spread across much of Asia, some of Europe…
Robes and Honor
Robes and Honor is a fascinating exploration of the possible common origin and subsequent developments of investiture across medieval Christianity and medieval Islam. The ceremony in all of its cultur

Marathas, Marauders, and State Formation in Eighteenth-Century India
Marathas, Marauders, and State Formation in Eighteenth-Century India
This set of historical essays challenges assumptions about the century between the Mughal Empire and the British colonial period. The author rejects the theory of chaos and anarchy, documenting instead a highly sophisticated form of administration. He also questions whether India's villages were isolated and static societies, providing evidence to the contrary, based upon archival material in the Old Marathi language. The text concludes by explor…
The Marathas 1600–1818
In this book, Dr Stewart Gordon presents a comprehensive history of one of the most colourful and least-understood kingdoms of India: the Maratha Empire. The empire was founded by Shivaji in the mid-seventeenth century, spread across most of India during the following century, and was conquered by the British in the nineteenth century. Using administrative documents of the Maratha polity, family papers and Histories of the Empire, Stewart Gordon …

Burhanpur
Kinship and pargana in eighteenth century Khandesh
Forts and Social Control in the Maratha State
Even without this wonderful sixteenth-century hyperbole, forts remain an impressive feature of India's landscape. A thoughtful traveller, seeing the jagged walls high above the road, might well wonder who built them, and when, and what events took place within the gates. Scholarly writing on the subject will disappoint him. Toy, in his seminal book, noted that 'this writer has been struck with the dearth of reliable litetature on the forts of Ind…
