Muḥammad Kāsim Firishta (English spelling)

Japanese: フィリシュタ(英語表記)Muḥammad Kāsim Firishta
Muḥammad Kāsim Firishta (English spelling)
1570?-1612
Indian historian. Born in the Persian Caspian Sea coast, he arrived in India as a young man. He was protected by the court of Bijapur, one of the five Muslim kingdoms in the Deccan region. Under its ruler, Ibrāhīm Ādil Shāh II (r. 1580-1626), he wrote a history of the medieval Muslim kingdoms of India known as Tārīkh-i-Firishta. This work was written from a different perspective than the histories written by the Mughal court historians, and some of the descriptions do not necessarily focus on northern India.

インドの歴史家。ペルシアのカスピ海沿岸地方の出身で,若いころインドに来航。デカン地方のムスリム五王国の一つビジャープル王国の宮廷の保護を受けた。その君主イブラーヒーム・アーディル・シャー2世Ibrāhīm Ādil Shāh II(在位1580‐1626)のもとで,《フィリシュタの歴史Tārīkh‐i‐Firishta》として知られているインド中世のムスリム諸王国史を執筆。これは,ムガル帝国の宮廷史家の史書とは違った視点から書かれたため,記述も必ずしも北インドが中心ではない部分もある。
