The political and religious identities of Southeast Asia were largely formed by the experiences of the fifteenth through seventeenth centuries, when international commerce boomed before eventually falling under the domination of well-armed European powers intent on monopoly. This book is the first to document the full range of responses to the profound changes of this period: urbanization and the burgeoning of commerce; the proliferation of firearms; an increase in the number and strength of states; and the shift from experimental spirit worship to the universalist scriptural religions of Islam, Christianity, and Theravada Buddhism.
Bringing together ten essays by an international group of historians, Southeast Asia in the Early Modern Era shows how various states adapted to new pressures and compares economic, religious, and political developments among the major cultures of the area.

Store description
In the heart of Kreuzberg, Berlin we have a range of curated second-hand books and programmed collections and shelves from friends and connections. Whether it’s an academic collection of queer coded classical poetry or a new parent’s list of books that tell the story of their childhood, we aim to offer space for the personal (and political); the elements of experience, opinion, translation, creation and giving that make a book more than just ink on paper (or screen). Mostly English language, mostly second-hand, always exceptional. …
