'After Timur Came: Multiple Spaces of Cultural Production and Circulation in Fifteenth-Century North India' (Conference)
The 'long' fifteenth century in South Asia is persistently seen as a dark age of fragmentation and decline that ended only with the arrival of the Mughals. This volume looks beyond such assumptions and demonstrates the period to be one of intense cultural production, religious exchange and political innovations, many of which prefigured later Mughal developments and proved foundational for subsequent South Asian culture.
Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph
