Titolo ricerca: Civilised Men: Culture and Power at the Courts of Rudolf II and Jahangir, 1575-1625.
About this project: Comparing the collections of Habsburg emperor Rudolf II and Mughal emperor Jahangir, this project argues that early modern cultural activity was a highly specialized political sphere. Asia and Europe appear to differ in their political and cultural development, but the material and visual evidence suggests strong similarities between the two. I thus attempt to circumscribe a political-cultural mechanism that prevailed across early modern Eurasia.
