摘要

1695年，亨利·艾里(Henry Every)海盗袭击了一艘载有从麦加朝圣归来的旅行者的莫卧儿船只，这引起了一些历史学家的注意，他们试图将这一事件纳入一个更大的欧洲海盗史，主要使用与该事件相关的英语资料。根据这些文献，本文的目的是将其与莫卧儿王朝的波斯材料结合起来，以证明这一事件揭示了早期现代朝觐——也就是说，麦加朝圣——以及莫卧儿赞助的在麦加和苏拉特之间运送朝圣者和货物的船只的组成。一封之前未被研究过的莫卧儿人的信件，由莫卧儿船的船长所写，与此事件有关，揭示了莫卧儿帝国如何理解与欧洲海盗的遭遇，并为莫卧儿帝国为什么如此迅速地将这次袭击归咎于英国人和东印度公司提供了证据。

Pirates and Pilgrims: The Plunder of the Ganj-i Sawai, the Hajj, and a Mughal Captain’s Perspective

The pirate attack by Henry Every in 1695 on a Mughal ship carrying travelers returning from pilgrimage to Mecca has received some attention by historians trying to fit this incident into a larger history of European piracy using mainly the English sources related to the incident. Drawing from this literature the aim of the present paper is to combine it with the Mughal Persian material available to demonstrate what this incident reveals about the early modern hajj – which is to say, pilgrimage to Mecca – and the makeup of the Mughal-sponsored ship carrying pilgrims and goods between Mecca and Surat. A previously unstudied Mughal letter related to the incident, by the captain of the Mughal ship in question, reveals the ways in which the Mughal Empire understood this encounter with European piracy and provides evidence for why the Mughal Empire was so quick to place the blame for this attack upon the English and the East India Company.
