Image Of The Modern Ottoman Sultan - Visibility, Identity, And Modernity In The Nineteenth Century

de Alison Terndrup

~~197,43€~~ 177,69€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Over the course of the dynamic nineteenth century, the image of the Ottoman sultan maintained a complex relationship with ideas surrounding the modernisation of the Empire. This book investigates that relationship by situating the tasvir-i humayun (imperial portrait) within the wider program of top-down modernisation movements initiated at the end of the eighteenth century under Sultan Selim III (r. 1789-1807) and culminating in the Tanzimat (Reorganization) era (1839-76). The study breaks new ground by considering the use of new image-making technologies and aesthetic trends - including oil-on-canvas paintings, lithographic prints, and photographs - primarily at the imperial court in Istanbul, but also at the provincial courts of the Ottoman Balkans.

Architecture Of Anxiety, Body Politics And The Formation Of Islamic Architecture

de Heba Mostafa

~~231,88€~~ 208,69€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Structured as five microhistories c. 632-705, this book offers a counternarrative for the formation of Islamic architecture and the Islamic state. It adopts a novel periodization informed by moments of historical violence and anxiety around caliphal identities in flux, animating histories of the minbar, throne, and maqsura as a principal nexus for navigating this anxiety. It expands outward to re-assess the mosque and palace with a focus on the Qubbat al-Khadra? and the Dar al-Imara in Kufa. It culminates in a reading of the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem as a site where eschatological anxieties and political survival converge.

Legacies Of Colonialism In Museum Collections - The (Un)Making Of Indonesian Islam In The Netherlands

de Mirjam Shatanawi

~~210,68€~~ 189,61€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This groundbreaking book tells the untold story of Indonesian Islam in museums. Often overshadowed by Hindu-Buddhist art, Indonesian Islamic heritage rarely receives the attention it deserves in museum collections and exhibitions. This book unravels the historical silences rooted in Dutch colonial rule that have marginalized Indonesian Islamic material culture. Delving into the colonial archives, it traces the journey of Indonesian objects in Dutch museums, exploring their original meanings and their re-appropriation during instances of collecting, classification, interpretation and public display. Through this lens, the book addresses the enduring impacts of colonialism and offers pathways for the decolonization of museums today.

Under The Adorned Dome, Four Essays On The Arts Of Iran And India - Ehsan Yarshater Lecture Series

de Yves Porter

261,03€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 These essays are the revised and updated version of four lectures given in the Yarshater Lecture Series, at SOAS in London in 2013. They concern some aspects of the arts from pre-modern Iran and India, namely, the "making of" of Persian illustrated manuscripts, the iconography of Kashan wares, the use and re-use of luster tiles in Ilkhanid Iran, and the glazed tiles made in three Indian sultanates (Delhi, Bengal and Malwa). These four topics share concepts of influence and impact, although inflected on different modes. The productions they embody represent many poles of influence, even if working on different scales, from the extensive diffusion of products, techniques, and systems to almost isolated productions.

Cartooning For A Modern Egypt

de Keren Zdafee

237,18€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The Egyptian caricature is generally studied as part of Egyptian mass culture, and mainly discussed in the context of Egypt's anti-colonial resistance to British foreign rule, as part of the forging of a "national style". In Cartooning for a Modern Egypt, Keren Zdafee foregrounds the role that Egypt's foreign-local entrepreneurs and caricaturists played in formulating and constructing the modern Egyptian caricature of the interwar years, that was designated for, and reflected, a colonial and cosmopolitan culture of a few. Keren Zdafee illustrates how Egyptian foreign-local caricaturists envisioned and evaluated the past, present, and future of Egyptian society, in the context of Cairo's colonial cosmopolitanism, by adopting a theoretical, semiotic, and historical approach.

Volubilis Apres Rome - Les Fouilles Ucl/Insap, 2000-2005

246,45€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Le site archeologique le plus visite au Maroc, Volubilis est connu depuis longtemps pour ses mosaiques spectaculaires. Ce livre traite de ce qui est arrive a la ville apres le retrait de l'administration romaine a la fin du troisieme siecle. Les fouilles publiees ici montrent comment la ville a continue a survivre jusqu'au cinquieme siecle, avec des maisons d'elite commandant encore des mosaiques elegantes, et comment cette occupation a pris fin dans un seisme brutal. La ville renait au sixieme siecle avec de nouveaux occupants, la tribu berbere des Awraba. Au VIIIe siecle, il devint le siege de l'homme qui unit la plus grande partie du Maroc a la tete de l'Awraba, Idris I, descendant du prophete Mahomet. The most-visited archaeological site in Morocco, Volubilis has long been known for its spectacular mosaics. Instead, this book deals with what happened to the town after the Roman administration was withdrawn at the end of the third century. The excavations published here show how the town continued to survive into the fifth century, with elite houses still commissioning elegant and witty mosaics, and how this occupation came to an end in a brutal earthquake. The town revived in the sixth century with new occupants, the Berber Awraba tribe. In the eighth century, it became the headquarters of the man who united most of Morocco at the head of the Awraba, Idris I, a descendant of the prophet Mohammed.

Earthen Architecture In Muslim Cultures - Historical And Anthropological Perspectives

255,73€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This edited volume follows the panel "Earth in Islamic Architecture" organised for the World Congress for Middle Eastern Studies (WOCMES) in Ankara, on the 19th of August 2014. Earthen architecture is well-known among archaeologists and anthropologists whose work extends from Central Asia to Spain, including Africa. However, little collective attention has been paid to earthen architecture within Muslim cultures. This book endeavours to share knowledge and methods of different disciplines such as history, anthropology, archaeology and architecture. Its objective is to establish a link between historical and archaeological studies given that Muslim cultures cannot be dissociated from social history.

Affect, Emotion, And Subjectivity In Early Modern Muslim Empires: New Studies In Ottoman, Safavid, And Mughal Art And Culture

213,33€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Affect, Emotion and Subjectivity in Early Modern Muslim Empires presents new approaches to Ottoman Safavid and Mughal art and culture. Taking artistic agency as a starting point, the authors consider the rise in status of architects, the self-fashioning of artists, the development of public spaces, as well as new literary genres that focus on the individual subject and his or her place in the world. They consider the issue of affect as performative and responsive to certain emotions and actions, thus allowing insights into the motivations behind the making and, in some cases, the destruction of works of art. The interconnected histories of Iran,Turkey and India thus highlight the urban and intellectual changes that defined the early modern period. Contributors are: Sussan Babaie, Chanchal Dadlani, Jamal Elias, Emine Fetvaci, Christiane Gruber, Sylvia Hougteling, Kishwar Rizvi, Sunil Sharma, and Marianna Shreve Simpson.

Printing Arab Modernity - Book Culture And The American Press In Nineteenth-Century Beirut

de Hala Auji

225,25€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 During the nineteenth century, the American Mission Press in Beirut printed religious and secular publications written by foreign missionaries and Syrian scholars such as Nasif al-Yaziji and Butrus al-Bustani, of later nahda fame. In a region where presses were still not prevalent, letterpress-printed and lithographed works circulated within a larger network that was dominated by manuscript production. In this book, Hala Auji analyzes the American Press publications as important visual and material objects that provide unique insights into an era of changing societal concerns and shifting intellectual attitudes of Syria's Muslim and Christian populations. Contending that printed books are worthy of close visual scrutiny, this study highlights an important place for print culture during a time of an emerging Arab modernity.
