Call for ARTICLES! L’HISTOIRE: VOLUME 3, ISSUE 1! Fluid Borders: Exploring East and South Asian Interactions!
In the pages of L’Histoire’s upcoming edition, we aim to examine this gradual shift by examining the historical, prehistoric, and contemporary interactions that took place between South Asia at large, not just modern India and the broader East Asian region for ages across material cultures (art, artifacts and more), trade and commerce, intellectual transitions, religious movements and language, among others to trace these dynamic, and layered exchanges and relationships. Voyages into the Past invites students, scholars and academics to delve into this and offer them the opportunity to contribute to a deeper understanding of the interconnected histories and cultures of East and South Asia.
