Beskrivelse

"Palace and Mosque at Ukhaiḍir - A Study in Early Mohammadan Architecture" is a 1914 work by Gertrude Bell that explores the origins and history of Islamic architecture. In this volume, she has brought together materials that relate to the earliest phases of Mohammadan architecture in order to consider and analyse the circumstances under which it arose and the roots from whence it sprang. Contents include: "Qṣair, Mudjḍah, And 'Aṭsh n", "Qaṣr-I-Sh r n", "Genesis Of The Early Mohammadan Palace", "The Fa ade", "The Mosque", "The Date Of Ukhaiḍir", "Ukhaiḍir, arch construction", "Ukhaiḍir, arch construction", "Ukhaiḍir, south side of court B", etc. Gertrude Margaret Lowthian Bell, CBE (1868-1926) was an English writer, political officer, traveller, archaeologist, and administrator. She became an important policy-maker in the British Empire as a result of her extensive knowledge and contacts, which she built up through her numerous travels in Mesopotamia, Greater Syria, Asia Minor, and Arabia. Other notable works by this author include: "Poems from the Divan of Hafiz" (1892), "The Desert and the Sown" (1907), and "Mountains of the Servants of God" (1910). This classic work is being republished now in a new edition with specially curated introductory material.
