Focusing on the role of women in the Mughal court during the sixteenth century, the study challenges conventional views of the haram as merely a space of seclusion and exploitation. Instead, it presents a nuanced portrayal of a society where noble men and women actively engaged in both domestic life and political affairs. By comparing with Ottoman and Safavid histories, the author highlights the complexity and significance of the Mughal haram in shaping imperial dynamics and institutional development.
