内容説明・目次
内容説明
This wonderful volume on Agra is the Labour of Love of author Syed Md. Latif who does not hide his passion for the city of Agra and the Mughals, especially Akbar. Written in 1896, this book is divided into four parts: historical, descriptive, Akbar and its court and, finally, a short note on the modern city of Agra. The historical section discusses briefly the dynasties before the mughals and then notices each mughal separately. The descriptive section offers copies notes on the Agra fort, The Taj, Fatehpur Sikri, Sikandra and a few other specimens of mughal architecture. The emperor Akbar and each of his nine jewels are also described individually. The book is illustrated with 47 line drawings of the mughal dynasty and the principal architectural monuments of the city and its suburbs.Through the book we find details of the orders, or firmans, and the various engraving that adorn the monuments and graves given in the original Persian or Arabic, and that along with its translations into English. The book was written consulting all the major Persian biographies and works of the mughal emperors as well as later English sources.
