Event Description

Make your way across south India, exploring its kaleidoscopic past and dazzling heritage, right from its first inhabitants up to the Vijayanagara Empire through Pradeep Chakravarthy’s book, A History of South India for Children Separated from the north by the Vindhya mountains and surrounded on three sides by water, southern India developed its own unique features – with outstanding rulers, incredible literature, spellbinding architecture, stunning dance forms and delicious food. Meet its royalty and courtiers, builders and sculptors, poets and authors, traders and merchants, spiritual leaders and devotees, and all the other people who went to make it a top destination of the time. Written in an easy style, by theme, and peppered with illustrations, photographs and tips for museum or monument visits, the book tells the thrilling and eventful story of the region’s proud past. In this session, Pradeep Chakravarthy is in conversation with Vikram Sampath.

A Q&A with the audience will follow.
