Although unidentified in the popular show, Game of Thrones, Dubrovnik, serves as the center of action of the Kingdom of Westeros, King's Landing. Made famous by the show, this Croatian town has become a center for heavy tourist traffic. However, what remains recognized is the historical similarities between the real city and its imagined counterpart. This episode will dive into Dubrovnik's cultural, economic, and strategic significance as a crucial port city in the Mediterranean in the Early Modern period. We will explore the city through the notable Book of Navigation by the Ottoman Navy admiral and cartographer Piri Reis.

Across the Green Sea: Histories from the Western Indian Ocean, 1440-1640 (University of Texas Press, 2024) by Dr. Sanjay Subrahmanyam presents a history of two centuries of interactions among the areas bordering the western Indian Ocean, including India, Iran, and Africa. Beginning in the mid-fifteenth century, the regions bordering the western Indian Ocean—“the green sea,” as it was known to Arabic speakers—had increasing contact through commerce, including a slave trade, and underwent cultural exchange and transformation. Using a variety of texts and documents in multiple Asian and European languages, Across the Green Sea looks at the history of the ocean from a variety of shifting viewpoints: western India; the Red Sea and Mecca; the Persian Gulf; East Africa; and Kerala. Dr. Subrahmanyam sets the scene for this region starting with the withdrawal of China's Ming Dynasty and explores how the western Indian Ocean was transformed by the growth and increasing prominence of the Ottoman Empire and the continued spread of Islam into East Africa. He examines how several cities, including Mecca and the vital Indian port of Surat, grew and changed during these centuries, when various powers interacted until famines and other disturbances upended the region in the seventeenth century. Rather than proposing an artificial model of a dominant center and its dominated peripheries, Across the Green Sea demonstrates the complexity of a truly dynamic and polycentric system through the use of connected histories, a method pioneered by Dr. Subrahmanyam himself. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose forthcoming book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

My guest today is Nandini Das, a Professor of Early Modern Literature & Culture at Exeter College at Oxford University, and author of the book “Courting India” which is an account of England's first ambassador to the Mughal court, Sir Thomas Roe, who was tasked with building a relationship with the emperor Jahangir in order to build English trade with India.  It's a fascinating book because it takes everything you thought you knew about the historic relationship between the two countries and completely turns it on its head. The English are poor and humble supplicants, whilst the Indian court is wealthy, powerful and very much in charge of directing the shape & direction of the relationship.  In today's episode, we talk about this first British embassy to India, how successful (or not) it really was, how it sowed the seeds for the British empire in India & beyond, and we touch upon the current relationship between the two countries, as well as hearing Nandini's favourite books & reading recommendations. Her favourite book that I've never heard of: “Coryat's Crudities” by Thomas Coryat (1611) Her favourite book of the last 12 months: “Leo Africanus Discovers Comedy: Theatre and Poetry Across the Mediterranean” by Nathalie Zemon Davis (2021) The book that she would take to a desert island: “The Principal Navigations, Voyages and Discoveries of the English Nation” by Richard Hakluyt (1589) The book that changed her mind: “Three Ways To Be Alien” by Sanjay Subrahmanyam (2011) Buy her book: https://amzn.eu/d/hAMRkg7 Lit with Charles loves reviews.

O historiador indiano, Sanjay Subrahmanyam, acaba de lançar em França um livro sobre o "Codice casanatense", uma obra que ilustra o encontro de civilizações entre Portugal e os povos que vão do Cabo da Boa Esperança, no extremo sul de África, à China, a Leste, a meados do século XVI. Este livro, com a chancela da editora Chandeigne, levanta um pouco o véu sobre uma obra única que muitos mistérios continua a encerrar. "Les peuples de l'Orient au milieu du XVIe siècle: Le codex Casanatense par Sanjay Subrahmanyam" [Os povos do Oriente a meados do século XVI por Sanjay Subrahmanyam], em tradução livre para português permite apreender a dimensão da obra única que é este Codice casanatense. Uma obra conservada na Biblioteca Casanatense de Roma, em Itália, sobre a qual não se têm grandes certezas sobre o/os autor/es nem mesmo do seu proprietário. O primeiro proprietário conhecido foi João da Costa do Colégio de São Paulo de Goa, na Índia, tendo a obra sido enviada para Lisboa em 1627. As aguarelas ilustram os povos de latitudes tão diversas como povos africanos do Oceano Índico (caso da Abíssinia, actual Etiópia), mas também do Médio Oriente (Estreito de Ormuz, Pérsia [actual Irão], Turquia, Índia, Myanmar, Malaca (na actual Malásia), Indonésia e China, por exemplo. São retratados ofícios, profissões, costumes, preceitos religiosos, incluindo sacrifícios rituais ou preceitos do hinduismo, desconhecidos na época na Europa. E isto para além de elementos da flora ou da fauna, com legendas em português, de todos os povos africanos e asiáticos, do Oceano Índico ao Oceano Pacífico, com os quais os portugueses teriam, na altura, estabelecido contactos ou erigido feitorias. Sanjay Subrahmanyam é um conceituado historiador indiano, com cátedra no Colégio de França, ligado à Escola francesa de Altos estudos em ciências sociais e também às universidades de Louvain (Bélgica), Oxford (Reino Unido) ou da Califórnia (Los Angeles, Estados Unidos), ele publicou um vasto rol de obras sobre a presença portuguesa no Sul da Índia. Ele é, pois, o autor de um novo livro, editado pela Chandeigne em França sobre este encontro de civilizações que a expansão portuguesa veio proporcionar. Em conversa com a RFI ele levanta-nos um pouco o véu sobre esta obra etnográfica ímpar que, tantos séculos volvidos, muita curiosidade continua a suscitar.

Mobile Suit Breakdown is written, recorded, and produced within Lenapehoking, the ancestral and unceded homeland of the Lenape, or Delaware, people. Before European settlers forced them to move west, the Lenape lived in New York City, New Jersey, and portions of New York State, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Connecticut. Lenapehoking is still the homeland of the Lenape diaspora, which includes communities living in Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and Ontario. You can learn more about Lenapehoking, the Lenape people, and ongoing efforts to honor the relationship between the land and indigenous peoples by visiting the websites of the Delaware Tribe and the Manhattan-based Lenape Center. Listeners in the Americas and Oceania can learn more about the indigenous people of your area at https://native-land.ca/. We would like to thank The Lenape Center for guiding us in creating this living land acknowledgment.

Sanjay Subrahmanyam‘s new book explores translations across texts, images, and cultural practices in the early modern world. Courtly Encounters: Translating Courtliness and Violence in Early Modern Eurasia (Harvard University Press, 2012) uses three key themes in early modern history – diplomacy, warfare, and visual representation – to show how commensurability across cultures, rather than existing prior to an encounter, had to be actively made by its agents. Subrahmanyam brings us into the many faces of a key battle in the sixteenth-century history of the Deccan, a dramatic martyrdom by cannon in the Malay world, and a circulation of visual tropes across European and Mughal contexts in a fascinating analysis of the ways that insult, intimacy, violence, and paint shaped relationships within and among the courtly ecologies of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The book expertly weaves a series of compelling microhistorical narratives into a larger story that takes us across the Indian Ocean and beyond, and is a must-read for anyone interested in global history or early modernity.
