Abstract

Mughals formally conquered Kashmir in 1586 during the reign of emperor Akbar. A large corpus of poetry and writings were written about Kashmir during this period. The present paper is an attempt to understand the Mughal imperial imagination about Kashmir through some of the writings available. Theoretically, the paper is guided by Edward Saidian method of reading. Samples from Mughal historiography and poetry would be taken for analysis and interpretation
