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.
