Aurangzeb: The Man and the Myth by Audrey Truschke

Aurangzeb: The Man and the Myth by Audrey Truschke

Aurangzeb has become shorthand for religious bigotry in South Asian politics. Audrey Truschke goes back to the seventeenth-century sources to see how much of that survives contact with the record.

She finds a ruler more complicated than either side wants — one who destroyed some temples and funded others, employed more Hindus in his administration than any predecessor, and pursued power with a consistency that had little to do with piety.

Short, evidence-driven and fiercely contested. Necessary reading in a region where this emperor is still an active political argument.
