Writing in the 18th century, the Persian-language
litterateurs of late Mughal Delhi were aware that they
could no longer take for granted the relations of Persian
with Islamic imperial power, relations that had enabled
Persian literary life to flourish in India since the tenthcentury C.E. Persian Authorship and Canonicity in Late
Mughal Delhi situates the diverse textual projects of 'Abdal-Qadir Bidil and his students within the context ofpolitically threatened but poetically prestigious Delhi,
exploring the writers' use of the Perso-Arabic and Hindavi
literary canons to fashion their authorship.

Several years ago a group of Belgian speleologists of

Deep inside a huge cave on the island Socotra they cameacross a large number of inscriptions, drawings andarchaeological objects. As further investigation showed,
they were left by sailors who visited the island between
the 1st c. BC and the 6th c. AD. The majority of the texts
is written in the Indian Brâhmî script, but there are also
inscriptions in South-Arabian, Ethiopian, Greek,
