What histories do objects like coins or gems help us to trace? How
can we read photographs and paintings? How do fictional tales,
imaginative biographies, basic lexicons, or accounts of Sufi
masters code intellectual worlds and reveal cultural and religious
shifts? What range of sources is available to the historian of
medieval and early modern India? How can textual sources illuminate
material objects, sites, and practices, and vice versa? What
historical methods do the different sources and material objects
require? Drawing on the rich scholarship of Simon E. Digby
(1932-2010) on South Asian medieval history and culture, the essays
in this volume offer method lessons in a wide range of historical
fields.
