Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A l'origine de ce livre, une conquête parmi tant d'autres : Alexandre le Grand occupait il y a 2300 ans la Bactriane, province occidentale de l'Asie centrale. Deux siècles plus tard, un envoyé chinois faisait le chemin inverse, vers l'Occident. La réalité humaine de ces régions, carrefour des routes de la Soie, fit éclore un commerce d'une richesse inouïe : ressources minérales (or, lapis-lazuli, turquoise), animales (chevaux ou moutons), vivrières, mais aussi la soie, le coton ou le thé... Marchands porteurs de denrées mais, aussi et surtout, d'idées et de spiritualités. Ce livre part à la redécouverte d'un monde aux dimensions d'un continent, de l'Iran à la Chine, entre les déserts et les steppes au nord et la barrière des Himalayas, au sud. Fébrilement et brièvement exploré au tournant du siècle, avant 1914, ce domaine était depuis lors ouvert par intermittences. L'éclatement de l'Union soviétique a fait sauter les verrous de sa partie la plus secrète : ce livre recrée l'unité d'un ensemble toujours divisé, mais désormais mieux connu. Ces civilisations charnières entre Orient et Occident sont en effet partagées entre des pays aux frontières souvent artificielles : anciennes républiques soviétiques, Afghanistan, Tibet, Mongolie ou Xinjiang chinois. Les cultures se sont succédé ou côtoyées dans ce creuset au rythme de trois grandes étapes. Antiquité où, sur fond d'affrontements et de symbiose, émergent des empires méconnus : parthe, kushan, sassanide, turco-sogdien. L'essor du bouddhisme, qui partira vers la Chine, la Corée, le Japon, marque une période de transition. Proclamé religion officielle du Tibet en 779, sous sa forme lamaïque, il est aussi adopté par la Mongolie. Enfin, la conquête arabe conduisit l'islam au cœur de l'Asie, et diffusa en retour techniques et motifs et couleurs vers Bagdad et Le Caire : ce fut l'apogée de l'Asie centrale, symbolisé par les noms magiques de Samarcande et Boukhara.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings to life the world of caravan trade--constituting not only merchants, but also pilgrims, pastoralists, and mercenaries; flows not only of goods, credit and money, but also of ideas, secret intelligence and fighting power. Contrary to the view that the ages of sail and steam rendered obsolete these more 'archaic' forms of overland connectivity, Jagjeet Lally demonstrates how the annual transhumance between North India and the Central Asian steppe was critical to the production and exercise of political power into the nineteenth century. Central to this narrative is the waning of the Mughal Empire and the emergence in the mid-eighteenth century of a new Afghan kingdom, whose leaders drew their power from the financial flows and force of arms moving through the networks of caravan trade, and who thus patronised the continued traffic between India and inland Eurasia. India and the Silk Roads is a global history of a continental interior, the first to comprehensively examine the textual and material traces of caravan trade in the 'age of empires'. Lally tells a story resonating with our own times, as China's Belt and Road Initiative once again transforms life across Eurasia.
