Event information
When the first English travellers arrived in India in the 16th century, they encountered an unimaginable superpower in the form of the Mughal dynasty. The collision of these worlds helped connect East and West, launching a tempestuous period of globalisation from the Chinese opium trade to the American slave trade.
Lubaaba Al-Azami is a Lecturer in Shakespeare and Early Modern Literature at the University of Manchester. She is also the founding editor of Medieval and Early Modern Orients, a leading digital platform on premodern interactions between England and the Islamic Worlds.
The event is on the first floor. There is a lift to enable access to the venue.
