what are the features of baburnama
Answers
Bāburnāma (Chagatai/ Persian : ﺑﺎﺑﺮ ﻧﺎﻣﮧ ;´, literally: "Book of Babur" or "Letters of Babur" ; alternatively known as Tuzk-e Babri ) is the name given to the memoirs of Ẓahīr-ud-Dīn Muhammad Bābur (1483–1530), founder of the
Mughal Empire and a great-great-great-grandson of Timur .
It is an autobiographical work, written in the Chagatai language , known to Babur as " Turki" (meaning Turkic), the spoken language of the Andijan -
Timurids. According to historian Stephen Frederic Dale, Babur's prose is highly Persianized in its sentence structure, morphology, and vocabulary, [1] and also contains many phrases and smaller poems in Persian . During Emperor Akbar's reign, the work was completely translated to Persian by a Mughal courtier, Abdul Rahīm , in
AH 998 (1589–90). [2]
Short description
Bābur was an educated Timurid and his observations and comments in his memoirs reflect an interest in nature, society, politics and economics. His vivid account of events covers not just his life, but the history and geography of the areas he lived in and their flora and fauna , as well as the people with whom he came into contact.
Content
The Bāburnāma begins with these plain words: [3]
“ In the month of Ramadan of the year 899 and in the twelfth year of my age, I became ruler in the country of Farghana.
”
After some background, Bābur describes his fluctuating fortunes as a minor ruler in Central Asia – he took and lost Samarkand twice – and his move to Kabul in 1504.
There is a break in the manuscript between 1508 and 1519. By the latter date Bābur is established in Kabul and from there launches an invasion into northwestern India . The final section of the Bāburnāma covers the years 1525 to 1529 and the establishment of the Mughal empire in India , which Bābur's descendants would rule for three centuries.
Widely translated, the Bāburnāma forms part of textbooks in no fewer than 25 countries – mostly in Central, Western, and Southern Asia. It was first translated into English by John Leyden and William Erskine as
Memoirs of Zehir-Ed-Din Muhammed Baber: Emperor of Hindustan [4] and later by the British orientalist scholar
Annette Beveridge .[5][6]
