Book Description

About the Book The book "Rise of the Maratha Power" explores Maratha history, delving into its significance and the historical groundwork. The narrative progresses from the inception of Maratha influence, tracing the growth of this power from seed to fruition. Chapters cover key aspects such as Shivaji's role as a civil ruler, the influence of saints in Maharashtra, the Gingi episode, and the Marathas' presence in Southern India.

About the Author Rao Bahadur Mahadev Govind Ranade (1842-1901), known as Nyayamurti Ranade, was an influential Indian scholar, social reformer, and judge. A founding member of the Indian National Congress, he held various roles, including membership in the Bombay Legislative Council and Finance Committee. As a calm optimist, he played a key role in establishing social and religious reform organizations like Poona Sarvajanik Sabha. Ranade, a judge of the Bombay High Court, advocated for humanizing, equalizing, and spiritualizing Indian society.

Introduction I' T was in the first quarter of the seventeenth century that two apparently insignificant events occurred on the Western Coast of India-the establishment of an English Factory at Surat in 1612, and the birth in 1627 at Shivnér, near Junnar, of a son to a petty Maratha Jahágirdár of the Ahmed-nagar Nizám Shahi Kingdom. Though neither of these events attracted much notice at the time, they heralded the birth of two mighty powers, which were brought into strange contact with one another during the next two centuries, and now as allies, and again as foes, they competed for supremacy in India, till at last the more organized foreign power prevailed in the struggle, and dis-placed the disorganized native power from its position as supreme ruler. The object of the following narrative is to present to the English and Indian reader a bird's eye view of the history of the rise and progress of the latter power-the power of the Maratha Confederacy, which, for one hundred years at least, occupied the foremost place among the native rulers of the country, and whose orders were obeyed at one and the same time far off in the west at Dwarka, in the east at Jagannath, at Haridwar in the north, and Ráméshwar in the south of the Indian Continent. It is not intended to go over the beaten tracks of the detailed story, which has been so elaborately treated in our native Bakhars, and authoritatively described by Mr. Grant Duff, the historian of the Marathas. Materials for a fuller account of the detail-ed narrative are being made available by the labours of our native scholars, and they will have in time to be worked up systematically, but the limits assigned to these stray chapters on Maratha History would of themselves preclude any such ambition. My aim is rather to present a view of the salient features of the history from the Indian standpoint, to remove many misapprehensions which detract much from the moral interest and the political lessons of the story, and, above all, to enlist the sympathy of the representatives of the conquering British power in the fortunes of its worsted rival.
