Abstract

This article investigates the letter-writing manual of the physician Muhammad Yusufi Haravi, composed in the 1530s at the court of the Mughal emperor, Humayun. It argues that by prescribing proper expressions of emotion based on one’s rank, the text reflects a combination of courtly desire and medical expertise which hoped to (but could not) transform the body politic (Mughal elite) into an emotional community. This was because the rapid establishment of Mughal rule in North India quickly scattered elite individuals far from their kinship groups, and the formation of a new social organisation, with the emperor at its apex, was a way to deal with the alienation that resulted from the breakup of kinship bonds.

莫卧儿早期印度的笔迹和情感社区:关于巴达伊·艾因沙的注记

摘要

本文研究了医生穆罕默德·尤苏菲·哈拉维(Muhammad Yusufi Haravi)的书信手册,该书于1530年代在莫卧儿皇帝胡马雍(Humayun)朝廷中撰写。它认为,通过根据个人的等级规定正确的情感表达方式,该文本反映了宫廷欲望和医学专业知识的结合,希望(但不能)将政治人物(莫卧儿精英阶层)转变为情感群体。这是因为在印度北部,莫卧儿统治的迅速建立,迅速将精英个体分散在其亲属群体之外,而以皇帝为首的新的社会组织的形成是一种应对因种族隔离而产生的疏远的方法。亲属关系破裂。
