2023BIBHB0119380682023. Hardcover. New. About The Book : It is impossible that the life of Nurjahan the Beautiful should remain unwritten. Of reliable historical incident much is available of equally reliable tradition still more; the whole going to make up a life marvellous in its romance touching in its humanity. In this sketch of it I have adhered in all matters of importance to the evidence of contemporaneous witnesses. That I have given a different complexion to them in many cases I admit; but no careful student of character and motive could avoid doing so. Briefly Nurjahan's extraordinary personality and power�which even in these days would raise criticism in a woman�exposed her in the seventeenth century to inevitable traducing. Sinister motives were found for her every action; above all personal ambition was held to be her ruling motive. This assertion is to my mind pulverized by the undenied fact that after her husband the Emperor Jahangir's death she voluntarily retired from all public life and lived a widow indeed. In like manner she is credited with much plotting and planning of which�beyond the statement of her enemies�no trace is to be found either in her character or her actions. Thus her sudden abandonment of Shahjahan is set down to personal pique and greed; but it is curiously coincident with his brother Khushrau's sudden death when in the former's custody; a death suspicious of poison to many even in those days.
