Abstract
The volume analyses the encounter between Buddhist and Muslim communities in South and Central Asia during the medieval period. The articles by historians, epigraphists, philologists, art historians and archaeologists provoke a fresh look at relevant sources, focusing on the areas: deconstructing scholarship on Buddhist/Muslim interactions, cultural and religious exchanges, perceptions of the other, transmission of knowledge, trade and economics.
