<br/><br/> This pioneering collection of essays helps to rectify this situation by addressing the ways thinkers in India and Tibet responded to a rapidly changing world in the three centuries prior to 1800. Contributors examine new forms of communication and conceptions of power that developed across the subcontinent changing modes of literacy consciousness, practices, and institutions in north India, unprecedented engagements in comparative religion, autobiography and ethnography in the Indo-Persian sphere; and new direction in disciplinarity, medicine and geography in Tibet.
