About The Book
The Sun Temple of Konark is a groundbreaking work by Anil Dey, a professional engineer and architect, which seeks to unravel the mysteries surrounding the Konark Sun Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of India's seven wonders. Dey embarks on an extensive journey through the history, legends, and architectural marvels of this ancient temple, offering an in-depth examination that blends scientific research with engineering insights.
In this seminal volume, the author sets out to separate fact from myth, using scientific tools and methodologies to explore the engineering techniques that went into the construction of the temple—methods that have remained shrouded in mystery for centuries. Dey challenges the conventional theories surrounding the temple's construction and provides his own theories, grounded in both historical research and modern-day engineering principles.
The book is a rich compilation of 415 images and 21 detailed architectural drawings, making it an invaluable resource for anyone studying the art, history, and architecture of the Konark Sun Temple. Dey's meticulous approach offers a fresh perspective on the temple's design, its sculptural embellishments, and its cultural significance.
The Sun Temple of Konark is not only an essential reference for researchers and students of Indian architecture and history, but it is also a captivating read for those who wish to delve deeper into the mystique of one of India's most iconic and awe-inspiring structures.
