Descripción de contraportada
Renowned scholars present new thinking on art, sciences, belief and history in the Seljuq period Rising from nomadic origins as Turkish tribesmen, the powerful and culturally prolific Seljuqs and their successors dominated vast lands extending from Central Asia to the eastern Mediterranean from the eleventh to the fourteenth century. Enhanced by colour images, charts and maps, this volume examines how, under Seljuq rule, migrations of people and the exchange and synthesis of diverse traditions - including Turkmen, Perso-Arabo-Islamic, Byzantine, Armenian, Crusader and other Christian cultures - accompanied architectural patronage, advances in science and technology and a great flowering of culture within the realm. The book also explores how shifting religious beliefs, ideologies of authority, and lifestyle in Seljuq times influenced cultural and artistic production, urban and rural architecture, monumental inscriptions and royal titulature together with practices of religion and magic. And it presents today's challenges and new approaches to preserving the material heritage of this vastly accomplished and influential civilisation. Key Features Includes studies that focus on the full breadth of Seljuq art and history from the Great Seljuqs in Central Asia and Iran to their successor states in Anatolia, Syria and Iraq/the Jazira Opens new paths in the research on magic, religion, astronomy, the concept of craftsmanship versus artistry, interaction between rulers and elites, ethno-religious and ethno-cultural diversity and emigration of people Case studies on the treatment of iconic art objects (the oldest extant Shahnama and the iconic Stora stucco panel) show innovations in conservation practices and set new strategies in dealing with restored objects The first comprehensive comparison of Seljuq, Qarakhanid and Ghaznavid titulature is set to become a key tool for kingship-related research Sheila R.
