Central Asian Monuments

Цитата:
Central Asian Monuments presents a collection of essays about the monuments, literature and culture of Central Asia. Historical and literary monuments are repositories of civilizations reflecting the culture and aesthetic tastes of their makers. Central Asia has a large and impressive repertoire of such monuments, though most of these are unknown to the western reader. Each of the nine essays compiled in this book focuses on a different Central Asian monument placing it in its historical context. The monuments discussed range from the earlier works of the Central Asia to the 19th and 20th century products and present a picture of this lesser known part of the world.
