The Umayyad World encompasses the archaeology, history, art, and
architecture of the Umayyad era (644-750 CE). This era was
formative both for world history and for the history of Islam.
Subjects covered in detail in this collection include regions
conquered in Umayyad times, ethnic and religious identity among the
conquerors, political thought and culture, administration and the
law, art and architecture, the history of religion, pilgrimage and
the Qur'an, and violence and rebellion. Close attention is paid to
new methods of analysis and interpretation, including source
critical studies of the historiography and inter-disciplinary
approaches combining literary sources and material evidence.
Scholars of Islamic history, archaeologists, and researchers
interested in the Umayyad Caliphate, its context, and infl uence on
the wider world, will find much to enjoy in this volume.
