Summary
The Sri Lankan Malays: Islam, literature, and Diaspora across the Indian Ocean. This project on Sri Lanka's Malays will expand our knowledge of the history of trans-local Islam in our region in the period preceding the nation state. Knowing more about mobility, migration, and displacement during an earlier era will help us conceptualise these pressing contemporary issues.
