What reading level is The History of Humayun Humayun Nama book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
, E. & E. , 64 and 64 n. . 225 XLIX. Dil-dar Begam. (No. 48. ) The Heart-holding Princess ; Pers. Dil, heart, and ddr, holding. Neither her husband, Babar nor her daughter, Gul- badan gives any clue to her parentage. Her marriage is not spoken of in the Memoirs ; it, as well as Gul- rukh's, probably occurred in the missing decade of 1509-19. If Babar held the view that four wives were a lawful number, Dil-dar, of whatever parentage, may be counted amongst them, since in 1509 Maham only remained... of his earlier wives, 'Ayisha, Zainab, and Ma'suma having disappeared from the household by death or divorce. Dil-dar is mentioned once in the Turk! text of Kehr and Ilminsky, and then as aghdcha. I am too ignorant of the import of this word in the domestic circle to venture to draw from its use an inference as to social status. It, however, as used by Babar and by Gul- badan, supports Pavet de Courteille's definition of a ' lady ' in contradistinction to a ' begam, ' and does not convey reproach to the woman as its occasional English rendering (concubine) does.
