Spanning more than a millennium, this anthology gathers literary
sources from across the entire region of Southeast Asia. Its 24
selections derive from a variety of genres and reflect the diverse
range of cultural influences the region has experienced. The
literary excerpts illustrate the impact of religious and
ideological currents from early Buddhism to Islam and Roman
Catholicism. The selections reveal how cultural influences from
South Asia, China, the Arabic world, and Europe arrived in
Southeast Asia and left their marks in the realms of literature,
society, and culture. The readings include religious works,
folklore, epic poems, short stories, and the modern novel. They
range from the Cambodian medieval version of the Ramayana to the
16th century Javanese tales to modern Thai short stories and
include selections from Cambodia, Thailand, Indonesia, Laos,
Philippines, and Burma.
