Taj Mahal - Its History Its...

Kelly Mass

The Taj Mahal stands as a breathtaking testament to Indo-Islamic architecture, celebrated as one of the most exquisite examples of this style in the world. Its origins are steeped in the emotional backdrop of its commission, reflecting the rich culture and history of the Mughal Empire, which wielded power over vast regions of India during the 16th and 17th centuries. The monument was commissioned by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal, who died during childbirth in 1631. Her passing left an indelible mark on the emperor, inspiring him to create a monument that would embody his love and devotion.While the majestic, domed marble mausoleum is the most iconic aspect of the Taj Mahal, the complex itself encompasses an extensive area of 22.44 hectares (55.5 acres) and comprises a variety of architectural features and landscaped gardens. Surrounding the central tomb are subsidiary tombs, a sophisticated system of waterworks, and the small town of Taj Ganji to the south. Additionally, a 'moonlight garden' lies to the north of the River Yamuna, designed to enhance the ethereal quality of the monument.

How to Be Queer - An Ancient...

Sarah Nooter

The idea of sexual fluidity may seem new, but it is at least as old as the ancient Greeks, who wrote about queer experiences with remarkable frankness, wit, and insight. How to Be Queer is an infatuating collection of these writings about desire, love, and lust between men, between women, and between humans and gods, in lucid and lively new translations. 
 
 
 
How to Be Queer starts with Homer's Iliad and moves through lyric poetry, tragedy, comedy, philosophy, and biography, drawing on a wide range of authors, including Sappho, Plato, Anacreon, Pindar, Theognis, Aristophanes, and Xenophon. It features both beautiful poetry and thought-provoking prose, emotional outpourings and humorous anecdotes. From Homer's story of the relationship between Achilles and Patroclus, one of the most intense between men in world literature, to Sappho's lyrics on the pleasures and pains of loving women, these writings show the many meanings of what the Greeks called eros. 
 
 
 
Complete with brief introductions to the selections, How to Be Queer reveals what the Greeks knew long ago—that the erotic and queer are a source of life and a cause for celebration.
