Between History And Legend: Status And Power In Bundelkhand
The Bundelkhand cultural region straddles several districts of southern Uttar Pradesh. The present account deals with the social structure and history of the Native States of Bundelkhand. The theme of this book is the evolution, patterning and socio-cultural perceptions of status and power relations in this region since the creation of state structures during late medieval times. This study pays dividends in terms of deconstructing the procrustean grid of the caste system and in questioning the conventional divide between tribal (clan) and rural (caste) systems in central India.
