The King and the People tells the history of a period of imperial collapse through the everyday experience of the Mughal empire's urbanites. This book offers a narrative of the evolving relation between courtly enunciations of sovereignty and the politics of the street. Set in Delhi, the capital of the largest and most sophisticated political formation in India before the British, the book brings together the study of intellectual traditions, power politics, urban culture and popular violence.
