Northern India by Marilia Albanese
The history of Indian culture has its epicentre in the north of the country. It is here, in the Ganges plain and neighbouring areas, that the great spiritual movements that gave life to the complex Hindu universe and alternative beliefs of Buddhism and Jainism were developed. The aim of this guide is to offer the widest possible perspective on northern India's various artistic phenomena through the use of text, pictures, maps, and sections of detailed cultural descriptions. It is hoped that by illustrating not just the buildings but also the metaphysical and symbolic meanings that underlie the works of art, the reader will be helped to understand the deepest essence of this civilisation and be given opportunities to better comprehend man and his aspirations.| SKU | Unavailable |
