Tipu Sultan was a Muslim king famous for resisting British dominance until his death; Krishnaraja III was a Hindu king who succumbed to British political and administrative control. Despite their differences, the courts of both kings dealt with the changing political landscape by turning to the religious and mythical past to construct a royal identity for their kings. Caleb Simmons explores the ways in which these two kings and their courts modified and adapted pre-modern Indian notions of sovereignty and kingship in reaction to British intervention. -- $c Provided by publisher, page 2 of book jacket. 650 0 $a Hinduism $z India. 651 0 $a India $x Religion. 651 0 $a Mysore (India) $x Kings and rulers. 651 0 $a India $x History $y British occupation, 1765-1947. 651 0 $a India $x Politics and government $y 1765-1947. 600 10 $a Tipu Sultan, Fath Ê»Ali, $c Nawab of Mysore, $d 1753-1799. 600 00 $a KrÌ¥sÌ£nÌ£araÌja VadÌ£eyara $b III, $c Maharaja of Mysore, $d active 1799-1868. 600 07 $a KrÌ¥sÌ£nÌ£araÌja VadÌ£eyara $b III, $c Maharaja of Mysore, $d active 1799-1868. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01926735 600 17 $a Tipu Sultan, Fath Ê»Ali, $c Nawab of Mysore, $d 1753-1799. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00017633 611 27 $a British Occupation of India (1765-1947) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01352145 650 7 $a Hinduism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00957121 650 7 $a Kings and rulers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00987694 650 7 $a Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919741 650 7 $a Religion. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01093763 651 7 $a India. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210276 651 7 $a India $z Mysore. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01209339 648 7 $a 1765-1947 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 830 0 $a Religion, culture, and history series. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317022731.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C968869268DD11EA9C5A9E4D97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
