Recenzii
'This book is an important work that enriches our understanding of family, empire and estate in South Asia. The analysis moves away from state policy and image-building to the micro-processes that actually reproduce state power. It achieves this through the mastery of difficult sources presented in a wide comparative frame.' Sumit Guha, University of Texas, Austin
'In tracking a single family's legal documents over three centuries, Nandini Chatterjee has written an extraordinary book, upturning our understanding of how Mughal law worked and how it was experienced by its subjects. It will be revelatory for anyone interested in Islamic, South Asian, or Mughal history.' Samira Sheikh, Vanderbilt University
'… it will be a valuable addition to the historiography of the Mughal Empire.' P. P. Barua, Choice
