Abstract :
Amongst Qajar’s court men, Abas Mirza, Ghaem Magham and Amir Kabir were pioneers in Modernism and paying attention to European civilization. However, the extent of the familiarity of Qajar court’s women to western ideas is not clear. The research investigates the level of women’s acquaintance with the knowledge and Western Colonialism to lean on three women of Nasiruddin Shah’s Court like Mahd Oliya, Ezatodolleh and Tajosaltane who were Nasiruddin Shah’s mother, sister and daughter. It seems they did not try to improve Western civilization symbols such as schools, newspaper etc. Furthermore, they did not pay attention to the aspects of Western Colonialism
