"Akbar: An Eastern Romance" by P. A. S. van Limburg Brouwer is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative centers around the life of Emperor Akbar, depicting his reign, relationships, and influences as a ruler in the context of his court and the cultural dynamics of the time. Key characters introduced include Siddha Rama, a young nobleman, his betrothed Iravati, and the wise hermit Gurupada, all of whom navigate the complexities of loyalty, ambition, and personal aspirations against the backdrop of Akbar’s illustrious empire. The opening of the novel sets a lush and vibrant scene in the mountainous regions where Siddha Rama and his tutor, Kulluka, are en route to the Emperor's court. They first visit the hermit Gurupada, who imparts wisdom about life and morality, foreshadowing Siddha's impending responsibility as he transitions into the royal environment of Agra. As Siddha interacts with Gurupada, the narrative unveils themes of loyalty and duty, especially concerning the complexities within Akbar's kingdom and the familial bonds exhibited through Siddha's relationship with Iravati. This introduction effectively establishes both the historical context and the personal stakes that define the characters' journeys.
