  3. Did Islam Become More Syncretic in India? An Interview With William Dalrymple

    Can anyone talk of the land donated by Mughal emperors for temples, of them celebrating Holi and performing in Ram Leela, or the translations of Sanskrit classics into Persian, and the succession of marriages with Hindu wives?

    To unravel the fascinating syncretic history of Muslim rule and Islam in India at the time, noted historian and chronicler William Darlymple talks to Vrinda Gopinath.

  13. "Miembro de la Royal Historical Society y de la Royal Asiatic Society, doctor honorario de varias universidades británicas e indias y autor de libros y ensayos sobre la India actual o su pasado colonial, advierte en su última obra, La anarquía, publicada en España en 2021, del inquietante paralelismo entre el inmenso poder que acumuló una empresa privada hace tres siglos, la Compañía Británica de las Indias, que manipuló gobiernos y derribó el imperio mogol, con las prerrogativas que hoy disfrutan las grandes corporaciones."
