Here, again, the legitimacy of Mamluk rule was consolidated by connecting the present with the glorious past, in this case by trans- mitting the aura of the Umayyads to the Mamluks. Islamic art forms generally were not interpreted in writing in medieval times, and it is therefore not certain why Baybars adorned the arches in his addition to Abu Hurayra’s tomb with the cushion voussoir, or what this motif con- veyed. We can venture an answer to this question only on the basis of a close reading of the work of art itself, by decoding its specific imagery and formal language with reference to its artistic models.

  • Advancements in Arch Analysis and Design During the Age of Enlightenment
    ADVANCEMENTS IN ARCH ANALYSIS AND DESIGN DURING THE AGE OF ENLIGHTENMENT by EMILY GARRISON B.S., Kansas State University, 2016 A REPORT submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE Department of Architectural Engineering and Construction Science and Management College of Engineering KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2016 Approved by: Major Professor Kimberly Waggle Kramer, PE, SE Copyright Emily Garrison 2016. Abstract Prior to the Age of Enlightenment, arches were designed by empirical rules based off of previous successes or failures. The Age of Enlightenment brought about the emergence of statics and mechanics, which scholars promptly applied to masonry arch analysis and design. Masonry was assumed to be infinitely strong, so the scholars concerned themselves mainly with arch stability. Early Age of Enlightenment scholars defined the path of the compression force in the arch, or the shape of the true arch, as a catenary, while most scholars studying arches used statics with some mechanics to idealize the behavior of arches. These scholars can be broken into two categories, those who neglected friction and those who included it. The scholars of the first half of the 18th century understood the presence of friction, but it was not able to be quantified until the second half of the century. The advancements made during the Age of Enlightenment were the foundation for structural engineering as it is known today. The statics and mechanics used by the 17th and 18th century scholars are the same used by structural engineers today with changes only in the assumptions made in order to idealize an arch.

  • Conserving the Palestinian Architectural Heritage
    Jihad Awad, Int. J. of Herit. Archit., Vol. 1, No. 3 (2017) 451–460 CONSERVING THE PALESTINIAN ARCHITECTURAL HERITAGE JIHAD AWAD Architectural Engineering Department, Ajman University of Science & Technology, United Arab Emirates. ABstract Despite the difficult situation in West Bank, the Palestinians were able to, during the last three decades, preserve a huge part of their architectural heritage. This is mainly due to the notion that this issue was considered as an essential part of the struggle against occupation and necessary to preserve their identity. This paper will concentrate mainly on the conservation efforts and experience in West Bank, Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip. It covers not only examples from major cities but also some important ones in the villages. Due to the special situation of being occupation, and the absence of a central au- thority responsible for heritage conservation, several entities were established and became involved in conservation, with diverse goals and approaches. Although it started during the last three decades, the Palestinian experience in conservation has received international recognition for some distinguished successful examples. It became in some cases a good reference for others outside Palestine. The main goal of this paper is to present the Palestinian experiment in conservation and to highlight the reasons behind the successful examples and find out the obstacles and difficulties in other cases. It shows that for the Palestinians preserving the architectural heritage became a part of their cultural resistance and efforts to maintain their national identity. This paper depends on a descriptive method based on pub- lications and some site visits, in addition to direct contact with major institutions involved in heritage conservation in Palestine.

Architecture, like philosophy, dates from the morning of the mind's history. Primitive man found Nature beautiful to look at, wet and uncomfortable to live in; a shelter became the first desideratum; and hence arose " the most useful of the fine arts, and the finest of the useful arts." Its history, however, does not begin until the thought of beauty had insinuated itself into the mind of the builder.

  • Arh 362: Islamic Art
    ARH 362: ISLAMIC ART CLUSTER REQUIREMENT: 4C, THE NATURE OF GLOBAL SOCIETY COURSE DESCRIPTION This course surveys the art and architecture of the Islamic world from the 7th through the 20th centuries. By looking at major themes and regional variations of Islamic art and architecture, the course examines how meanings in various socio-political and historical contexts have been encoded through forms, functions, as well as the aesthetic features of arts, crafts, and the built environment. The last portion of the course, spanning the 19th to the late 20th centuries, examines the West’s discovery of the Islamic arts as well as the integration of Western ideas into indigenous ones. This course can only briefly address some of the major themes. The topics (especially those pertinent to the modern period) are introduced through a number of key readings, but they should be merely seen as introductions, providing possible directions for future and more advanced studies. Discussions and questions are always encouraged. The readings, which have been selected to supplement the required textbooks, are particularly chosen to serve this purpose. COURSE-SPECIFIC OUTCOMES Gain valuable information about Islamic art and design as well as the cultures that gave shape to them Read critically and interpret and evaluate art historical issues in relation to socio-political conditions in non-Western contexts Develop a foundation for writing good critical essays about non-Western art and material culture Research non-Western art in a museum context Comparative studies of Western and Non-Western styles in a variety of media, including 2D and 3D art and design as well as architecture.

  • Towards a Deleuzian Approach in Urban Design
    Difference and Repetition in Redevelopment Projects for the Al Kadhimiya Historical Site, Baghdad, Iraq: Towards a Deleuzian Approach in Urban Design A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN ARCHITECTURE In the School of Architecture and Interior Design Of the college of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning 2018 By Najlaa K. Kareem Bachelor of Architecture, University of Technology 1999 Master of Science in Urban and Regional Planning, University of Baghdad 2004 Dissertation Committee: Adrian Parr, PhD (Chair) Laura Jenkins, PhD Patrick Snadon, PhD Abstract In his book Difference and Repetition, the French philosopher Gilles Deleuze distinguishes between two theories of repetition, one associated with the ‘Platonic’ theory and the other with the ‘Nietzschean’ theory. Repetition in the ‘Platonic’ theory, via the criterion of accuracy, can be identified as a repetition of homogeneity, using pre-established similitude or identity to repeat the Same, while repetition in the ‘Nietzschean’ theory, via the criterion of authenticity, is aligned with the virtual rather than real, producing simulacra or phantasms as a repetition of heterogeneity. It is argued in this dissertation that the distinction that Deleuze forms between modes of repetition has a vital role in his innovative approaches to the Nietzschean’s notion of ‘eternal return’ as a differential ontology, offering numerous insights into work on issues of homogeneity and heterogeneity in a design process. Deleuze challenges the assumed capture within a conventional perspective by using German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche’s conception of the ‘eternal return.’ This dissertation aims to question the conventional praxis of architecture and urban design formalisms through the impulse of ‘becoming’ and ‘non- representational’ thinking of Deleuze.

  • Al-Azhar and the Orders of Knowledge
    Al-Azhar and the Orders of Knowledge Dahlia El-Tayeb M. Gubara Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Dahlia El-Tayeb M. Gubara All rights reserved ABSTRACT Al-Azhar and the Orders of Knowledge Dahlia El-Tayeb M. Gubara Founded by the Fatimids in 970 A.D., al-Azhar has been described variously as “the great mosque of Islam,” “the brilliant one,” “a great seat of learning…whose light was dimmed.” Yet despite its assumed centrality, the illustrious mosque-seminary has elicited little critical study. The existing historiography largely relies on colonial-nationalist teleologies charting a linear narrative of greatness (the ubiquitous ‘Golden Age’), followed by centuries of decline, until the moment of European-inspired modernization in the late nineteenth century. The temporal grid is in turn plotted along a spatial axis, grounded in a strong centrifugal essentialism that reifies culturalist geographies by positioning Cairo (and al-Azhar) at a center around which faithfully revolve concentric peripheries. Setting its focus on the eighteenth century and beyond, this dissertation investigates the discursive postulates that organize the writing of the history of al-Azhar through textual explorations that pivot in space (between Europe and non-Europe) and time (modernity and pre- modernity). It elucidates shifts in the entanglement of disciplines of knowledge with those of ‘the self’ at a particular historical juncture and location, while paying close attention to the act of reading itself: its centrality as a concept and its multiple forms and possibilities as a method.

  • Historical Tradition and Modern Transformations of the Algerian and Persian Housing Environment
    HOUSING ENVIRONMENT 31/2020 ARCHITEKTURA XXI WIEKU / THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE 21st CENTURY e-ISSN 2543-8700 DOI: 10.4467/25438700SM.20.011.12692 YULIA IVASHKO*, ANDRII DMYTRENKO**, PENG CHANG*** Historical tradition and modern transformations of the algerian and persian housing environment Abstract Historically, the urban situation in the cities and towns of Persia and Algeria was highly specific. The hot dry climate contri- buted to a street network, which was protected from the sun as much as possible. Climate conditions determined the appe- arance of houses with flat roofs, small windows and white walls. The entire urban planning system had the main centre—the city (town) mosque. There were smaller mosques in the structure of residential areas, densely surrounded by houses. Just as under the influence of climate a certain type of residential building took shape, these same factors formed a characteristic type of mosque in the housing environment. Globalist trends have affected even such a conservative sphere as Islamic religious architecture, as it gradually toned down striking regional features, which is explained by the typicality of modern building materials and structures and the interna- tional activity of various architectural and construction firms in different corners of the world. Over the centuries, two oppo- sing images of the mosque have emerged—the pointedly magnificent Persian and the fortress-type of Maghreb (typical for Algeria) types. This paper reviews how specific climatic conditions and historical processes influenced the use of building materials, structures and decoration in the mosques of Persia’s and Algeria’s different regions. Today we observe an erosion of regional features in the form and layout of modern mosques, which are analysed on the basis of the examples given.

As a reference, the architectural element characteristic of Wali mosque (local mosque) needs to be known, so that this paper aims to find a description of a local mosque (Wali mosque), and also description of architectural elements of non- local mosques (mosques with foreign cultural context) because one of the causes of changes in mosque architecture is cultural factors. The findings of this paper are expected to be input for further studies on the details of physical changes in the architectural elements of mosques in Indonesia. The study subjects taken were 6 Wali mosques that were widely known by the Indonesian Muslim community as Wali mosques and 6 non-local mosques that were very well known and frequently visited by Indonesian Muslim communities. Data obtained from literature studies, interviews and observations. The analysis is done by sketching from visual data, critiquing data, making interpretations, making comparisons and compiling the chronology of the findings.
