Their design principles have been obscured, however, by the loss of all archival material. This book resolves that impasse by investigating the neglected, interdisciplinary contexts of medieval poetics and optics and through comparative study of Islamic court ceremonials. This reframing enables the reconstruction of the underlying, integrated aesthetic, focusing on the harmonious interrelationship between diverse artistic media - architecture, poetry and textiles - in the experience of the beholder, resulting in a new understanding of the Alhambra. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Architecture.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85006611 650 0 Architectural drawing, Medieval.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2003008373 650 7 Architecture.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/813346 650 7 Architectural drawing, Medieval.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1199914 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aBush, Olga.|tReframing the Alhambra.
