Synopsis of Dissertation

I have written the Synopsis of my Dissertation work and submitted it. The title of my work is Reconstructing Social History from Coins and Currencies. This work will take place in Indian doctrine. I have to analyze the whole socio-cultural & socio-economic scenario of ancient to medieval India and from medieval to modern Indian paradigm shift. There are rise and fall of several Royal dynasties, their complexity in dealing estate, political conflict, economic policy, religious conflict and cultural scenario - have to be explored. I have to look forward by literary sources, journals of eminent Numismatists, books and statistical data which would obey this great responsibility.

  1. Great topic Sahitya, don't forget to look into changing technology and how that helped to create the economic, social and political shifts connected with the changing design, metal content and messages that were placed on common coinage. Looking forward to talk to you more about your interesting dissertation project, Karen Lee, curator, National Numismatic Collection, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C.
