    ¿Qué había antes del imperio británico?

    December 8, 2015 / 0 Comments

    Entre los siglos XVI y XIX, llegó a India un nuevo conquistador, Babur, empujado fuera de su territorio por un líder afgano, se asentó en Kabul y Delhi y extendió su imperio por toda la zona norte de India. Este nuevo imperio se conoció, a causa de su ascendencia mongola, como imperio mogol. Llegaron a dominar sobre grandes partes del país, hasta que los británicos aprovecharon la decadencia del imperio para imponer su gobierno. Además de por la autoría del monumento más conocido de India, el Taj Mahal, el imperio mogol es conocido por un renacimiento artístico en forma de manuscritos, retratos, escenas de la corte y estudios de historia…

    Art of India

    September 1, 2014 / 0 Comments

    India, a country full of myths and legends – or at least in the view of a Westerner. No doubt India has a fascinating culture, an interesting history, and a long tradition in the fine arts. But when it comes to thinking about India it is always the Taj Mahal we picture. For many a symbol of love beyond death, it should also be a symbol for miserable financing as its construction led to an empty treasury. The next big thing that comes to mind is the huge film industry of Bollywood which has gathered more and more fans around the world over the last years. With its dancing and…

    Tronos y curry

    March 21, 2013 / 0 Comments

    Cuando piensas en la India te vienen tópicos a la cabeza como: yoguis, curry, miseria, La ciudad de la alegría, Bollywood, trenes atestados hasta la bandera, la madre Teresa de Calcuta y un río Ganges de dudosa salubridad. Por supuesto, también te viene la imagen del Taj Mahal, el palacio-mausoleo encargado por el emperador Sha Jaján para enterrar a su esposa favorita, Mumtaz Mahal (la buena mujer murió dando a luz a su decimocuarto (¡!) hijo, no se puede decir que no se mereciera el monumento).     Este palacio, además, es representativo de una importante época en lo que ahora es la India: el Imperio mogol (siglos XVI y…

    “A Teardrop on the Cheek of Time”*

    March 15, 2013 / 0 Comments

    When the Mughal Empire is spoken of, I am willing to bet that the majority of people will not be overly familiar with this particular dynasty. It is true, that I am (or was) guilty of being ignorant of what this Empire was, in fact, even where it was. However, I am not so remiss as to be unacquainted with the Taj Mahal! This inspiring and beautiful World Wonder is perhaps the best-known monument to arise out of the golden age of the Mughal Empire. There have been many architectural triumphs throughout the ages which have been acknowledged as truly great, but perhaps only a handful with a personal and…
