Islamic Intellectual History in the Mughal Era: Volume 1 (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Islamic Intellectual History in the Mughal World brings together new scholarship on the rich and varied intellectual life of the Mughal world, challenging long-standing narratives of decline and dichotomies such as orthodoxy versus heterodoxy. Spanning disciplines including philosophy, logic, poetics, mysticism, law, and medicine, the chapters collectively illuminate the infrastructures, languages, and actors that shaped Muslim scholarly production in South Asia between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries. Drawing on Arabic, Persian, and vernacular sources, the essays situate the Mughal scholarly enterprise within wider transregional currents across West, Central, and South Asia. With critical attention to genres, networks, and conceptual debates, the volume offers fresh perspectives on how knowledge was produced, circulated, and contested in early modern South Asia. It will be of interest to scholars and students in Islamic studies, South Asian history, religious studies, and global intellectual history.
