Q4:- Discuss various
approaches to study Indian feudalism. To what extent European model of
feudalism is relevant in the Indian context?
FEUDALISM the name
used for a group of customs, embracing the political and economic sides of
life, which gave to society its characteristic shape during the greater part of
the Middle Ages. The rise of the institutions which we call feudal became
noticeable shortly after the Germanic invasions, and they attained their
highest development from the ninth to the thirteenth century. With the
beginning of the fourteenth century certain nonfeudal institutions appeared,
and gradually a more modern type of society began to take form. These changes,
slow at first, became more rapid and fundamental until eventually the feudal
system, as such, was quite overthrown, though certain customs lingered far down
into modern times and in some few respects still exercise considerable
influence in various countries. Feudalism, therefore, must be studied in its
origin, its period of highest development, and its decline; and in the
examination of the chief features of the system attention must be paid to the
way in which it affected (1) personal relationship, (2) landholding, and (3)
the distribution of political power.
