Описание
The book is devoted to artistic and cultural heritage of Punjab. Punjab has been the seat of a high civilization since the Indus Valley times. It was here that the Aryans chanted the hymns of the Rigveda and performed sacrifices to the gods ruling over the elements. Punjab has suffered invasions since the time of Alexander. These invasions and the succeeding political upheavals could not erode the culture of Punjab. “Industrialization combined with English education” says the author of the present volume “have blinded our ‘educated’ people in respect to their cultural heritage and in times to come, I think, the rural folks too will get affected.” The author in this 36 years' toil, has tried to recapture a vivid picture of this culture.
