520 |a Explores the design and development of synagogues in the Islamic worldThis beautifully illustrated volume looks at the spaces created by and for Jews in areas under the political or religious control of Muslims. Covering regions as diverse as Central Asia, the Middle East, North Africa and Spain, it asks how the architecture of synagogues responded to contextual issues and traditions, and how these contexts influenced the design and evolution of synagogues. As well as revealing how synagogues reflect the culture of the Jewish minority at macro and micro scales, from the city to the interior, the book also considers patterns of the development of synagogues in urban contexts and in connection with urban elements and monuments.Key Features:Uniquely explores the elements and concepts applied in the design of synagogues in the Islamic worldShows connections between Jewish and Islamic architecture and the collaboration among Muslims and Jews in the design and construction of synagoguesTakes an interdisciplinary and cross-cultural approach, providing a new setting for the analysis of Islamic architectureAddresses historical, social, urban, and architectural aspects of synagogues throughout the Muslim world including Iraq, Afghanistan, Morocco, Egypt, Spain, Turkey, Tunisia, Iran, and IndiaContributorsMeltem Özkan Altınöz, Karabük UniversityMichelle Huntingford Craig, Getty Research Institute Arlene Dallalfar, Lesley UniversityReuven Firestone, Hebrew Union College (Los Angeles) and University of Southern CaliforniaDaniel Muñoz-Garrido, University of Granada Anat Geva, Texas A&M UniversityMohammad Gharipour, Morgan State University Ulrike-Christiane Lintz, University of AmsterdamVivian B.
