Indian textiles have been coveted all the world over since the days of ancient civilizations. Many kingdoms over the centuries, from the early Romans to the England of Queen Victoria, found it necessary to ban the import of these opulent textiles to protect local production which was otherwise falling out of favour with users.
Travellers, from Huien Tsang to Bernier have written elaborate accounts of India's rich textiles and till present times scholars have studies them.
This volume attempts to put together some important writing on hadwoven and handworked textiles, including some of the most distinguished scholars from the world of texdtiles: Alfred Buihler, Stella Kramrisch, Agnes Geiker, Moti Chandra, Milton Sonday et al. Many of the papers reprinted in this volume are out of print, have appeared in specialized journals or have never been translated. A historical survey looks at textiles from the Mauryan period till the present time. A regional survey looks at the current states of the textile industry and pinpoints major developments and shifts in production. Specially commissioned photos reflect the range and exuberance of these textiles.
