The six essays in this book, by scholars from several countries, deal with various aspects of Middle Bengali literature, mostly from the perspective of religious or socio-cultural studies. The issues discussed are: the interaction between merchants and rulers in Mukundaram's Candimangal; journeying or flotation on rivers in different Manasamangal traditions in the context of the problem of the abodes of the Snake Goddess, the gods and the dead; the birthplace and time of Saiyad Sul'tan; popular beliefs associated with incidents from the Manasamangal and the ruins of Mahasthangarh; the process of formation of a specific Bengali Islamic identity; and the portrayal of Siva as an agricultural deity.
