Overview

Socio-Economic Life Of Northern India (c. A.D. 550 To A. D. 650)
by Sukla Das

This study spotlights the socio-economic life of Northern Indian during a period somewhat overshadowed by the brilliance of the Gupta era.

The fifteen chapters of the text offer a glimpse into some interesting facets of contemporary social and economic life, on the one hand they laboriously trace the continuity as well as changes in the socio-economic forces, while on the other they highlight the emergence of new forces with modifications consequent in the altered political scene.

This survey not only underlines the strength and stability of the two basic forces, social and economic, but further belies the common impression that ancient India focused her emphasis on spiritualism in preference to mundane attainments. If at all, India’s spiritualism only represented the peak of cultural and aesthetic refinements as an outcome of phenomenal material progress rather than the negation of it.
