Dedicated to Erica Cruikshank Dodd, Art and Material Culture in the
Byzantine and Islamic Worlds offers new perspectives on the
Christian and Muslim communities of the east Mediterranean from
medieval to contemporary times. The contributors examine how people
from diverse religious backgrounds adapted to their changing
political landscapes and show that artistic patronage, consumption,
and practices are interwoven with constructed narratives. The
essays consider material and textual evidence for painted media,
architecture, and the creative process in Byzantium, Crusader-era
polities, the Ottoman empire, and the modern Middle East, thus
demonstrating the importance of the past in understanding the
present. Contributors: Evanthia Baboula, Lesley Jessop, Anthony
Cutler, Jaroslav Folda, John Osborne, Glenn Peers, Annemarie Weyl
Carr, Mat Immerzeel, Bas Snelders, Angela Andersen, May Farhat,
Marcus Milwright, Rico Franses.
