The Mediation of Symbolic Forms. 520 1 "The transformation of Islamic architecture and ornament during the eleventh and twelfth centuries signaled profound cultural changes in the Islamic world. Yasser Tabbaa explores with exemplary lucidity the geometric techniques that facilitated this transformation, and investigates the cultural processes by which meaning was produced within the new forms. Iran, Iraq, and Syria saw the development of proportional calligraphy, vegetal and geometric arabesque, muqarnas (stalactite) vaulting, and other devices that became defining features of medieval Islamic architecture. 520 8 Ultimately, the forms and themes described in this book shaped the development of Mamluk architecture in Egypt and Syria, and by extension, the entire course of North African and Andalusian architecture as well."--Jacket. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Decoration and ornament, Architectural|0https://id.loc.gov /authorities/subjects/sh85036275|zMiddle East.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85090501-781 650 0 Islamic architecture|zMiddle East.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85006809 650 0 Architecture, Medieval|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85006823|zMiddle East.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85090501-781 650 0 Islamic decoration and ornament|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85036288|zMiddle East.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85090501-781 650 0 Decoration and ornament, Medieval|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85036291|zMiddle East.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85090501-781 650 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 Architecture, Medieval.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/813825 650 7 Islamic decoration and ornament.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1730310 650 7 Decoration and ornament, Medieval.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/889273 651 7 Middle East.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1241586 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aTabbaa, Yasser, 1948-|tTransformation of Islamic art during the Sunni revival|z0295981253|w(DLC) 2001027014|w(OCoLC)45827984 830 0 Publications on the Near East, University of Washington. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n84749451 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1104488|zOnline eBook.
