The Creative South: Buddhist and Hindu Art in Mediaeval Maritime Asia vol 2

The Creative South: Buddhist and Hindu Art in Mediaeval Maritime Asia vol 2

Announcing this new pair of books edited by Andrea Acri and Peter Sharrock on Buddhist and Hindu art in Monsoon Asia. The copies can be ordered from ISEAS Publishing below, or from my Amazon affiliate links here (Volume 1) and here (Volume 2).

This edited volume programmatically reconsiders the creative contribution of the littoral and insular regions of Maritime Asia to shaping new paradigms in the Buddhist and Hindu art and architecture of the mediaeval Asian world. Far from being a mere southern conduit for the maritime circulation of Indic religions, in the period from ca. the 7th to the 14th century those regions transformed across mainland and island polities the rituals, icons, and architecture that embodied these religious insights with a dynamism that often eclipsed the established cultural centres in Northern India, Central Asia, and mainland China. This collective body of work brings together new research aiming to recalibrate the importance of these innovations in art and architecture, thereby highlighting the cultural creativity of the monsoon-influenced Southern rim of the Asian landmass.
