Description
This book changes the way we look at the history of early medieval India (c. 600–1300 ce). Raising questions about periodization, it highlights the complex and multilinear nature of historical processes in the subcontinent. Apart from analysing the theoretical debates, the nature of political systems, and urban and rural economy and society, the volume also discusses gender, religion, art, language and ideas, thereby expanding the lens through which we view the history of pre-Sultanate and non-Sultanate early medieval India.
