This book was released on 1982 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Volume Of The Author S 5-Vol Series History Of Mughal Architecture Studies Such Aspects Of The Architecture Of Jehangir S Age (1605-27 A.D.) As Public Works (Roads-And-Sarais), Gardens And Garden-Pavilions, Palatial Mansions And Shikargahs, Picture Wall Of Lahore Fort And Tombs, Each In A Separate Chapter. It Covers 43 Monuments, Extending From Kabul To Allahabad, And Kashmir To Burhanpur, And The Scope Of This Volume Is Much Wider Than The Earlier Ones.That Public Works As Roads, Kos-Minars, Bridges, Sarais, Wells, Baolis And Porters Walls Were Built And Maintained At Government Expense Testifies That The; Mughal State Was Fully Alive To The Welfare Of Its Subjects. Four Masonry Bridges Have Been Specifically Studied. Jehangir Was Greatly Interested In Gardens, And Garden-Craft Received A Distinct Form Under His Patronage. Palaces Were Built Amidst Gardens, Mostly On The Riverbank, With Characteristic Idioms Of The Age. A Unique Building Complex, Which Developed Under Him, Was Shikargah (Hunting Lodge) And Four Representative Examples Have Been Studied. The Glazed-Tiled Picture Wall Of The Lahore Fort Is Unique In Respect Of Its Scale, Scheme And Subjects. Originally, It Covered An Immense Mural Area 500 Yards In Length And 16 Yards In Height, By An Ingenious System Of Panelling Which, Besides Stylized Florals, Arabesques And Geometricals, Depicted Beautiful Figurative Compositions. Architect, Potter, Painter And Glazed-Tiler Collaborated On This Grand Project Which Has No Parallel In The World.Domeless Tomb With A Barahdari With Chaukhandi Roof Or A Plain Chabutarah Was Also A Unique Growth Of This Age And The Most Notable Tombs Of This Class, As Those Of Akbar, I Timad-Ud-Daulah And Jehangir, Have Been Studied In Detail. Development Of Such Distinctive Architectural Features As Dado , Gateway And Minar Also Belongs To This Period, During Which Unprecedented Emphasis Was Given On Ornamentation, Which Is Why This Art-Epoch Is Noted For Colour And Design . This Study Has Been Made In The Context Of, And With Reference To, The Cultural Milieu Which Produced It And This Is Not Only A History Of Jehangir S Architecture But Also A History Of Jehangir S Age And History Of Jehangir S India. It Is A History Of Those Tender Feelings, Sublime Thoughts And Subtle Ideas Which Go To Make A Civilization, Not Of Those Political Intrigues And Feuds, And Military Conflicts Which Destroy It.

Download or read book Historical Dictionary of Pakistan written by Shahid Javed Burki and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-03-19 with total page 727 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pakistan is unlike most other countries in the emerging world. It is one of the two nations – the other being the state of Israel – founded on the basis of religion. Although it was created to provide a homeland for the Muslim community of British India, in its original form it was able to accommodate only about half of the people of Islamic faith who lived in the subcontinent. Pakistan’s birth in 1947 resulted in one of the largest movements of people in human history when some 14 million people left their homes, with 8 million Muslims leaving India for what is now Pakistan and 6 million Hindus and Sikhs moving in the opposite direction. This was the first large-scale incidence of ethnic cleansing the world was to witness. This fourth edition of Historical Dictionary of Pakistan covers its history through a chronology, an introductory essay, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 700 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Pakistan.

Download or read book Spirits in Transcultural Skies written by Niels Gutschow and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-11-26 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume investigates the visualization of both ritual and decorative aspects of auspiciousness and protection in the form of celestial characters in art and architecture. In doing so, it covers more than two and a half millennia and a broad geographical area, documenting a practice found in nearly every corner of the world. Its transcultural approach aims at gaining insights into cultural dynamics and consistent networks and defining new historical mindmaps; it examines reciprocal effects and aspects of interwovenness in art and architecture with a view to reconceptualizing their established realms. The collection opens a window on a phenomenon in the history of art and architecture that has never before been considered from this perspective. The book focuses on a transcultural iconography of aerial spirits, goddesses and gods in art history, pursuing a methodologically innovative approach in order to redefine and develop the practice of identification and classification of motifs as a means to understanding meaning, and attempting to challenge the categories defined by academic disciplines.
