A peek at Akbar & Jeff's private lives--are they or aren't they? (And what's up with Ernie and Bert?)

An amazing exhibition catalogue showing the splendors of one of the greatest rulers of the world, India’s Emperor Akbar (1542–1605). Akbar the Great is considered one of the most splendid sovereigns of humankind. Though he never learned to read or write, he was a great protector of poetry and literature, the builder of the grandiose capital Fathepur Sikri, the City of Victory, and the promoter of new movements in arts and crafts. The catalogue illustrates his deep art appreciation, detailing his court life with portraits and images of political activities, cultural events, and his military glory through arms and armor. Jewel boxes, turban ornaments, earrings, and necklaces are lavishly presented from the most important Indian, European, and American museums and collections. Although the author references the latest in art historical scholarship, this book is also aimed at readers with an affinity for Indian culture.

Akbarnāma, or The History of Akbar, by Abu’l-Fazl (d. 1602), is one of the most important works of Indo-Persian history and a touchstone of prose artistry. Marking a high point in a long, rich tradition of Persian historical writing, it served as a model for historians throughout the Persianate world. The work is at once a biography of the Mughal emperor Akbar (r. 1556–1605) that includes descriptions of his political and martial feats and cultural achievements, and a chronicle of sixteenth-century India. The first volume details the birth of Akbar, his illustrious genealogy, and in particular the lives and exploits of his grandfather, Babur, and his father, Humayun, who laid the foundations of the Mughal Empire. The Persian text, presented in the Naskh script, is based on a careful reassessment of the primary sources.The Murty Classical Library of India makes available original texts and modern English translations of the masterpieces of literature and thought from across the whole spectrum of Indic languages over the past two millennia in the most authoritative and accessible formats on offer anywhere.

The dazzling designs of non-figurative illumination are also included.The Emperor Akbar was the third member of the Mughal dynasty to rule in northern India, his reign of 1556-1605 encompassing the period of Queen Elizabeth I of England. Akbar was a patron of manuscripts on a prodigious scale. His court studio employed the finest calligraphers to copy manuscripts, and the finest painters and illuminators to decorate them.The Khamsa, or 'Quintet', is a five-part work in verse by the twelfth-century Persian poet Nizami; its stories are among the most famous in Persian literature. Down the centuries, numerous rulers and people of culture in the Islamic world have found it indispensable to own a beautiful copy of the Khamsa.
