Sinopse

As I write this, the great bell of the Duomo, once the Pieve, is sounding in my ears, and the magnificent frescoes of Fra Filippo seem still before my eyes. Across the Piazza I see the house which Filippo bought, and in which the baby Filippino was born.
With all the known facts before me, I have woven my story; supplying the motives and details through much reading of contemporary writings, some experience of human life, an intimate knowledge of Catholics, and a close study of Fra Filippo’s paintings.
A J. Anderson.
Prato,
April 10, 1908.

    Erica Dawson, a professor and writer, said she was surprised while on book tour recently to be faced with the same question over and over again, about speaking for “the black experience.” Black poets "never went away. We don’t only deserve the stage in tumultuous times. We aren’t just rage," says Dawson, who shares her humble opinion on recognizing individual voices.

    The Taj Mahal is a fascinating building, which inspires childlike wonder to people all over the world. However, there are many mysteries still surrounding it. There are many knowns and unknowns about the large stone structure in Northern India. 
    There are a series of questions to be answered, like when and how was it built? Who built it? Why was it built in the first place? What impact did this incredible structure have on culture at the time and modern Indian culture today? 
    There is so much more to the structure than just bricks of marble and sandstone. Many see it as a monument to the love of the highest order. The incredible beauty of its design inspires so much in modern architecture, and it is almost the first building people think of when they think of Indo-Asian building design. 
    The history surrounding the Taj Mahal is as remarkable as the structure itself. It has been the subject of admiration from Kings and Queens, near and far throughout the 17th century and onwards. It won many fans from European explorers, many of whom dubbed it the most astounding monument they’d set eyes upon. 
    We learn about the Emperor Shah Jahan, from his early years as a nobleman's son, to his later life as a champion of Indian and Arabic cultures. His impact on the greater landscape of Indian culture is truly extraordinary, although, he is not responsible for all the innovation and change.  
    The beauty of the Taj Mahal is not only in what you can see but what you can feel beyond the marble and sandstone in its walls. There is a storied and wonderful history surrounding the palace. It was a dream imagined and realized over many years. 
    The Taj Mahal, built by Shah Jahan in loving memory of his wife, is the center stone of the incredible architectural legacy he left behind him. This book will help you further understand all there is to know about the Taj Mahal and why it's so popular the world over.
