MCQ
उत्तर
Bernier
Explanation:
Bernier's Travels in the Mughal Empire is known for its meticulous observations, critical views, and introspection. His account includes talks attempting to put the Mughal dynasty's history into some form of universal context. He frequently contrasted Mughal India with contemporary Europe, emphasising the latter's superiority. His depiction of India is based on a binary opposition approach, in which India is shown as the polar opposite of Europe. He also arranged the observed disparities in a hierarchical sequence, making India appear inferior to the rest of the globe.
