SUMMARY:Sailors and Slaves in Medieval Maritime Asia: from baghdād to baghpūr
DESCRIPTION:BRINFAITH RELIGION AND EMPIRE PUBLIC LECTURE SERIES\nSailors and Slaves in Medieval Maritime Asia: from baghdād to baghpūr\nABSTRACTThis talk presents some of the preliminary ideas and findings of Dr. Ha Guangtian’s ongoing project which examines the role of multi-racial\, multi-religious\, and multi-lingual sailors and slaves in facilitating Muslim trans-regional trade in medieval maritime Asia. He asks what is entailed if we are to shift our attention away from trade and diplomacy; and how we are to reconstruct an alternative subaltern trans-regionalism where race\, religion\, and class intersect — in ways that may compel us to reconsider current paradigms centred on the trans-Atlantic world.\n\nABOUT THE SPEAKERDr. Ha Guangtian is Assistant Professor of Religion at Haverford College and the author of Fragile Transcendence: Sound and Saint in Sino-Sufism\, to be published in September 2021. He is currently working on a new project that examines the entwinement of sex and slavery in the making of Islam in maritime Asia.\n\nORGANIZERThe event is organized by the CRF Project “Infrastructures of Faith: Religious Mobilities on the Belt and Road [BRINFAITH]” (RGC CRF HKU C7052-18G)\, which is hosted by the ASIAR – Asian Religious Connections Research Cluster in HKIHSS.
