  • Naser Hassan AI-Rifaei
    The Principle of Movement in Moroccan Design; as a source of inspiration for contemporary artistic applications Practice-based research in Art and Design Naser Hassan AI-Rifaei A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Brighton for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2009 University of Brighton Abstract This project focuses on utilizing the principle of movement contained in traditional Moroccan design (PMMD) for the production of new and inventive artworks. The PMMD is one of the main concepts that rules the creation and construction of design elements; it consists of a group of advanced technical procedures applied to achieve the highest levels of unity, harmony, variation and rhythm between lines and shapes. Great consideration in the PMMD is given to the viewer's perception, as all parts are formed to be equally interesting and to work harmoniously together suggesting ways for the viewer's eye to interact with and move in and throughout the composition. The purpose of this research is to examine viable methods for stimulating new ideas by taking the aesthetic and technical significances of the PMMD as a source of creative inspiration. The work involved analyzing the relationship between form, method and perception in traditional compositions by exploring the role of PMMD in 1) the process of creating and shaping design elements separately, 2) methods of relating the lines and shapes of different design components. Data on PMMD was collected from recent literature on Islamic art and Moroccan design, from interviews with master-craftsmen, and from my personal analyses and observations.

  • An Inventory of Ottoman Sultans' Farmans and Correspondences of Algeria’S Pashas in the Ottoman Period (Sea and Trade 1516-1830)
    An inventory of Ottoman Sultans' Farmans and correspondences of Algeria’s Pashas in the Ottoman period (Sea and Trade 1516-1830) Dr. Leila Kheirani Associate Professor (Doçent) University of Algiers 2 The Algerian National Library keeps an abundant number of documents that belong to the Ottoman period. However, a lot of these documents were lost and stolen in the Colonial period. The remained documents are considered as a real cabinet to preserve the Algerian society heritage and memory. They include: Treaties, Internal Correspondences between local administrators and External Correspondences such as mutual letters between “The Sublime Door” and the intermediates of Algeria in the Ottoman and European regencies as well as kings of Europe and their ministers. In this paper we will define 32 documents we found in the series number 3190 in the archives of the National Library most of which are correspondences sent to Pasha of Algeria from “The Sublime Door” and their Intermediates. These documents dated between (1748- 1830) and most of them belong to the period of Dey Hussein Pasha who was the last Dey in Algeria in that period. All these documents were translated into Arabic, and were composed by Ottoman people who used to work in the Ottoman government in Algeria. The documents were written in Maghrebi script mixed with Ottoman Language, some of them were translated into French. Hence, we noticed in these documents the relationship between “The Sublime Door” as the Centre of the State and Algeria as a Regency of the Ottoman State in the Maritime and Trade sides. Moreover, there were many Sultans’ Farmans.

  • Arabic Calligraphy | Civilisation of the Word
    Arabic Calligraphy | Civilisation of the Word ‘Calligraphy appears on nearly every kind of media one can think of.’ Because the power of the word is respected in Islamic culture, whether verbal or transcribed, recitation and writing have been given a lot of attention both in Arabic-speaking and non-Arabic-speaking Islamic societies. This has encouraged an appreciation of calligraphy – meaning literally ‘beautiful writing’ – and in turn promoted the application of the art onto a variety of media, both for religious and secular use. Calligraphy appears on architecture, books, coinage and metal wares, official documents and tiraz textiles, ceramics, wood, ivory, stone and glass, and nearly every other kind of media one can think of.

  • Painting the Stars in a Century of Change a Thirteenth-Century Copy of Al-Sufrs Treatise on the Fixed Stars British Library Or.5323
    Painting The Stars In A Century Of Change A thirteenth-century copy of al-Sufrs Treatise on the Fixed Stars British Library Or.5323 Part I Moya Catherine Carey School of Oriental and African Studies Ph.D. thesis 2001 / (L. J Abstract British Library manuscript Or.5323 is a late thirteenth-century copy of the well-known illustrated treatise on the constellations, composed by the Persian astronomer cAbd al-Rabman b. cumar b. Muhammad al-üff in 964AD. It is a significant manuscript, both in terms of Islamic art history and constellation iconography. This study follows three different approaches to establish the date and provenance of the manuscript. The study begins with a precise description of the manuscript, and a reconstruction of its original pagination. Additional notes and owners' seals are examined, and provide new details of the manuscript's provenance and history. These establish that the manuscript was produced before 1279-8OAD. Then follows a review of al- üWs biography, and the history of his treatise. AI-SOfrs influences and innovations are discussed, as is the extent of the work's popularity and dissemination throughout the Islamic world and Europe. The illustrations are assessed in relation to a review of Islamic constellation iconography previous to 1400AD, in other copies of the treatise and on celestial globes. There is a particular connection with three celestial globes, attributed to an TI-Khãnid observatory in Marãghâ (NW Iran) in the late thirteenth century. The metamorphoses of the classical constellation-images in the Islamic world are also discussed, constellation by constellation, and the considerable influence of late classical pseudo-scientific astronomy literature is demonstrated.
