"In Encounters of the Opposite Coast, Markus Vink provides a narrative of the first
half century of cross-cultural interaction between the Dutch East India Company (VOC),
one of the great northern European chartered companies, and Madurai, one of the 'great
southern Nayakas' and successor-states of the Vijayanagara empire, in southeast India
(c. 1645-1690). A shared interest in trade and at times converging political objectives
formed the unstable foundations for a complex relationship fraught with tensions,
a mixture of conflict and coexistence typical of the 'age of contained conflict.'
Drawing extensively on archival materials, Markus Vink covers a topic neglected by
both Company historians and their Indian counterparts and sheds important light on
a 'black hole in South Indian history'"--Provided by publisher
