The Pal dynasty reigned in Bengal during the Early Middle Ages in Europe, from the eighth to the eleventh centuries. When it arose, Bengal was divided among a number of petty kinglets, and for three centuries had been ruled thus, ever since the days of the great Gupta Empire, that classical age in Indian art and literature which came to an end with the invasions of the White Huns from Central Asia. The rise of the Pal dynasty marks the resurgence of art in Bengal. A striking aspect of the Pal Age is the Tantrik system, one of the most startling and intricate elements of Hinduism. The book is a rare source of information on this significant age of Indian history.
