"De monumenten van den Girnar" by Delphine Menant is a travel narrative written in the early 20th century. The book explores the author's journeys through the city of Ahmedabad and the notable monuments, temples, and historical sites of the Girnar area, specifically focusing on the Hindu and Jain cultural heritage. It also provides insights into the local social and political context of India during the colonial period. The opening of the narrative introduces the author’s arrival in Ahmedabad, detailing her recovery from illness and the impetus behind her journey to study Parsi communities in Bombay. As she visits significant sites, such as the grand citadel and various mosques and palaces, her observations illustrate both the aesthetic beauty and cultural richness of the region. The text captures vivid descriptions of her experiences, from interactions with locals to explorations of notable landmarks, laying the groundwork for further explorations of history and culture against the backdrop of emerging colonial influences in India.
