Communal Harmony in Medieval Bengali Literature

Abstract

Medieval Bengali literatures are one of the best examples of communal harmony. After the establishment of Muslim rule in Bengal the two communities started to live together. In a very short period of time they known to each other and started to exchange their rich culture. As a result an extraordinary mixed culture was formed which was a gem in our cultural history. Both the Hindus and Muslims contributed to create such harmonic culture. This culture helped to construct communal harmony in medieval Bengal. This cultural heritage is our national pride.
