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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eErica Cruikshank Dodd Passion, Serendipity, Curiosity, and the Making of an Art Historian   Lesley Jessop    Bibliography of Erica Cruikshank Dodd  Note on Transliteration and Dates  List of Illustrations  Contributors    Introduction: Diversity and Identity in the Medieval Mediterranean and Beyond   Evanthia Baboula and Lesley Jessop    1 The Anaphoric Icon Observations on Some Byzantine Metapictures   Anthony Cutler    2 Two Icons of the Virgin and Child Hodegetria from St. Catherine’s Monastery on Mount Sinai Byzantine or Crusader?   Jaroslav Folda    3 The Thirteenth-Century Expansion of the Narthex of San Marco, Venice A Space for Dead Doges?   John Osborne    4 The Refectory of the Monastery of St. Mary in the Valley of Jehoshaphat, Jerusalem Crusader Painting at Crossroads   Glenn Peers    5 Orthodox Monasteries under Lusignan Rule Relations with Others, Relations with Their Own   Annemarie Weyl Carr    6 Church Embellishment in Medieval Egypt, Syria, and Cyprus Patronage and Identity   Mat Immerzeel and Bas Snelders    7 The Tale of the Shared Church in Diyarbakir Narrative Traditions of the Co-Use of Places of Prayer by Muslims and Christians   Angela Andersen    8 Beirut’s Great ʿUmari Mosque History, Memory and Post-War Reconstruction   May Farhat    9 The Traditional Crafts of the Middle East and Central Asia in the Writings of European and North American Travellers   Marcus Milwright    10 To Not Know God Geometrical Abstraction and Visual Theology in Islamic Art   Rico Franses    Index","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210819035479,"sku":"9789004457133","price":100.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/art-and-material-culture-in-the-byzantine-and-islamic-worlds-studies-in-honour-of-erica-cruikshank-dodd-9789004457133","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
