In this article, I examine the structures and spatial dynamics of Fatehpur Sikri to show how the overall design of the Mughal capital city was informed by Islamic philosophy and ethical texts known as akhlaq. Both discourses used the concept of the city to theorize how the ideals of justice could be materialized. After creating an interpretative framework based on these texts, I focus on four spaces of interaction at Fatehpur Sikri, the Jami Masjid, Diwan-i Aam, Ibadat Khana, and markets, to show how the phenomenology of Peripatetic Islamic philosophy, later translated for Mongol kings by Nasir al-Din Tusi (1201–74), influenced the meaning of the city. Through this investigation, I argue that Fatehpur Sikri was a means of bringing the ethical concepts of Persianate philosophy to life in sixteenth-century Mughal India and introducing a new set of social and religious norms to the people.

Akhlaq-i Nasiri 对 Akbar 的 Fatehpur Sikri 形式和空间的影响

在本文中，我研究了法塔赫布尔西格里的结构和空间动态，以展示莫卧儿首都的整体设计如何受到伊斯兰哲学和被称为 akhlaq 的伦理文本的影响。两种话语都使用城市的概念来理论化正义的理想是如何实现的。在根据这些文本创建解释性框架后，我重点关注法塔赫布尔西格里、贾米清真寺、迪万-i Aam、伊巴达卡纳和市场的四个互动空间，以展示逍遥伊斯兰哲学的现象学，后来被翻译为蒙古Nasir al-Din Tusi（1201-74）的国王影响了这座城市的意义。通过这次调查，
