This is a study of exile and diaspora - and their multiple manifestations across religions, language worlds, and time - as they relate to the island known as Sarandib, Lanka and Ceylon. Utilising a rich array of sources, including Malay manuscripts and Javanese chronicles, Ricci explores entwined histories and imaginings of displacement.
