Monserrate, Women, Akbar's Court, Travelogues, European

There was an influx of European travellers from the early fifteenth century. The influx of European travellers increased with the establishment of the Mughal Empire, probably due to the expanding trade and trading networks through overseas as well as land routes. Although the European travellers were often critical of rulers and their respective states, labelling these accounts as biased would be a sweeping statement. These accounts reflected travellers’ individual visions and perspectives and were subjective in their observations and writings. Therefore, it is important to understand these subjectivities while analysing the travel accounts. The travellers documented what they essentially saw and observed. The European travellers while travelling within the Indian subcontinent engaged with texts, chronicles and accounts composed in the subcontinent, and used them as sources of information. It is with the help of these source that this paper will understand the status and position of women at Akbar’s court. Various spaces such as; The Harem, Palaces, along with the social practices such as Sati is studied as observed by Father Monserrate in order to understand the position of Women at Akbar’s court.
