This textbook is intended as an introduction to Indian civilization, whose geographical boundaries are significantly larger than those of contemporary India. It invites readers on a journey through its archaeological remains and its art history (architecture, sculpture, and painting), from the Neolithic period to the independence of the modern states of South Asia (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan). The Manuels de l'Ecole du Louvre collection was designed as an editorial extension of its teaching, combining analysis of works and theoretical reflection using an original and didactic approach. This collection offers readers a synthesis of the most recent work in archaeology and art history.
