About the Book
This book offers a fresh interpretation of key aspects of Indian history and culture, with a particular focus on Buddhism and its influence on art and intellectual traditions. The text begins with a re-examination of the history and nomenclature of Nalanda, tracing the Buddhist heritage of the region and its role in shaping Buddhist art. The book also delves into political perceptions of Asoka, explores Oeso on Kushan coins, and introduces new linguistic interpretations, such as the identification of Konarka as a Tocharian word.
Further, the author examines the significance of Sanskrit and Indology as the Indian Renaissance, the historical importance of the Sharada and Kangra scripts, and the connection between the word "Roma" and the gypsies, highlighting references to them in Indian sources. This work brings to light lesser-known but vital aspects of Indian art, culture, and Buddhism, making it an essential read for scholars and enthusiasts of South Asian history and Buddhist studies.
