MINGLING OF PEOPLE, CULTURE AND RELIGION IN WILLIAM DALRYMPLE’S WHITE MUGHALS

Journal Title: International Journal of English and Literature (IJEL) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 2

Abstract

William Dalrymple isnot working with a gripping tale of the British-Indian politics before the onset of colonialism, but he is also giving evidence on the cultural exchanges between the White people and the Indians (especially with the Mughal-Muslims) in the Pre-Victorian era. White Mughalsis not only ambitious in scope, but also rich in detail, in terms of demonstrating the last part of the Seventeenth century and the early half of the Eighteenth century British India, and the first White Westerner arrives to India and appreciates, adjusts, adapts, and gets seduced by the Mughal and Indian culture.
