Surprising Bedfellows: Hindus and Muslims in Medieval and Early
Modern India argues that religious and cultural identities in
medieval and early modern India were marked by fluid and constantly
shifting relationships rather than by the binary model of
opposition that is assumed in so much scholarship. Building on the
pioneering work of scholars such as Cynthia Talbot and Brajadulal
Chattopadhyaya, these chapters seek to understand identity
perception through romances, historical documents, ballads and
historical epics, inscriptions and even architecture. The chapters
in this volume urge readers to reconsider the simple and rigid
application of categories such as Hindu and Muslim when studying
South Asia's medieval and early modern past. It is only by doing
this that we can understand the past and, perhaps, help prevent the
dangerous rewriting of Indian history.
