From Spain to China, Islamic architecture and calligraphy are inexorably intertwined. Mosques, dervish lodges, mausolea, libraries, even baths and marketplaces bear masterpieces of calligraphy that rival the most refined books and scrolls. This major reference work focuses on architectural inscriptions throughout the Muslim world, some going back to the Middle Ages, others dating from our own lifetime. What were the purposes of these inscriptions? How do they infuse buildings with culturally specific meanings, sacred or profane? What do they add to architectural design? What sorts of materials were used, and how do they interact with light and space? Who were their patrons, and what do we know about the artists who produced them? You can find out with this exciting new collection written by a stellar cast of international contributors. It features 28 case studies explain different aspects and contexts of calligraphy in Islamic architecture. It is geographically wide-ranging - covers North Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, China and Spain. It takes an interdisciplinary approach to analysing calligraphy as part of its larger spatial- architectural context. It is lavishly illustrated with 400 colour images." 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Islamic calligraphy.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85018977 650 0 Architectural inscriptions.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85006596 650 0 Decoration and ornament, Architectural.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85036275 650 0 Islamic architecture.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85006804 650 0 Islamic decoration and ornament.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85036288 650 7 Islamic calligraphy.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1430565 650 7 Architectural inscriptions.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org /fast/813270 650 7 Decoration and ornament, Architectural.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/889225 650 7 Islamic architecture.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1730262 650 7 Islamic decoration and ornament.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1730310 650 7 ARCHITECTURE / General.|2bisacsh 650 7 Ausstattung.|2gnd 650 7 Inschrift.|2gnd 650 7 Islamische Architektur.|2gnd 650 7 Islam.|2gnd|0(DE-601)106283499 650 7 Architektur.|2gnd|0(DE-601)104280352 650 7 Kalligraphie.|2gnd|0(DE-601)106093126 650 7 Arabische Schrift.|2gnd|0(DE-601)181267764 650 7 Ornament.|2gnd|0(DE-601)106208160 650 7 House and Home.|2ukslc 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 700 1 Gharipour, Mohammad.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names /no2013020111 700 1 Schick, İrvin Cemil.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names /n2017014050 776 08 |iPrint version:|tCalligraphy and architecture in the Muslim world.|dEdinburgh : Edinburgh University Press, ©2013|z0748669221|w(DLC) 2013454930|w(OCoLC)851254642 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=2398101|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
