Translation and State
In 1587, Abu al-Faz?l ibn Mubarak – a favourite at the Mughal court and author of the Akbarnamah – completed his Preface to the Persian translation of the Mahabharata. This book is the first detailed study of Abu al-Faz?l's Preface. It offers insights into manuscript practices at the Mughal court, the role a Persian version of the Mahabharata was meant to play, and the religious interactions that characterised 16th-century India.
