Thank you Gav.
I did not think that anyone would believe I would sell the books, so I got a bit surprised when I within a quarter of an hour got two mail about buying books from the list. As you will see at the start of the thread, the error has been corrected. Jens |

Forums members are again reminded that commercial discussions are strictly prohibited in the discussions forums, just as discussion is prohibited in the swap forums.
There has been a recent escalation in violations and the bear is awake and in a mauling mood. If anyone wants to go back to moderated status, just violate these rules and that will be the best outcome you can expect. Remember also that your private messaging and forums e-mail forwarding access will be forfeit in this status. If someone posts something for discussion and you covet it, take it to private message or e-mail. Offers to buy in the discussion forum are a violation. If you feel a listing in the swap forum is fraudulent, report the post to the moderators team. If you have a lesser disagreement, take it to private message or e-mail with the seller. Third party corrections and comments in the swap forum are a violation. |

Thanks, Jens! This reminds me to look for that old bibliography thread we put together and link it to the "classics"...

For those of you who would like to know some more about the historical background and influence, there are books like this.
Majumdar, R. C.: Suvarnadvipa – Hindu Colonies of the Far East. Vol. I-II. 1937. Cosmo Publications, reprint 2004. It is very interesting, and the author has also written a book about the Champa kingdom, but I don’t have this one yet. Sewell, Robert: A Forgotten Empire (Vijayanagar). Published 1900, reprint 2007. This one I hope to get within a few days, so I have not read it yet. One thing, which one must not forget is, that all authors on subjects like this, have used other books for reference, and a mistake made in one of the early books is likely to appear in one of the later books, so the texts should be analysed and compared to the knowledge the reader has, and with other sources. |
