Tutti si vestono ogni giorno, ma la body art non ha ricevuto l'attenzione che merita come la più comune e universale delle espressioni materiali della cultura. Il volume mira a documentare le decisioni di abbigliamento prese dalle persone comuni nella loro vita quotidiana. Sulla base di un lavoro sul campo condotto principalmente nella città di Banaras, in India, Pravina Shukla concettualizza e realizza un modello totale per lo studio della body art, intesa come tutte le modifiche estetiche e le integrazioni del corpo. Shukla sollecita lo studio dell'intero processo della body art, dall'assemblaggio delle materie prime e la fabbricazione degli oggetti, attraverso la loro vendita e le interazioni tra commercianti e consumatori, all'uso degli oggetti da parte del consumatore nella creazione di decorazioni personali.Material cultureAbbigliamentoIndiaBNCF391.00954SHUKLA,Pravina911235GLASSIE,HenryITcbaREICAT996476768103316EBERGrace of four moons2877263UNISA04064nam 22005172 450 991082577650332120230809223734.01-4744-1131-21-4744-1130-410.1515/9781474411301(CKB)3710000001156070(MiAaPQ)EBC5013795(UkCbUP)CR9781474411301(DE-B1597)615515(DE-B1597)9781474411301(EXLCZ)99371000000115607020170405d2017|||| uy| 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierArchitecture and landscape in medieval Anatolia, 1100-1500 /edited by Patricia Blessing and Rachel Goshgarian[electronic resource]Edinburgh :Edinburgh University Press,2017.1 online resource (xiii, 293 pages) digital, PDF file(s)Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 25 Jan 2018).1-4744-1129-0 Includes bibliographical references and index.Introduction: space and place: applications to medieval Anatolia / Patricia Blessing and Rachel Goshgarian -- Craftsmen in medieval Anatolia: methods and mobility / Richard P.

Given its location at the geographical and chronological juncture between Byzantines and the Ottomans, its story tends to be read through the Seljuk experience. This obscures the multiple experiences and spaces of Anatolia under the Byzantine empire, Turko-Muslim dynasties contemporary to the Seljuks, the Mongol Ilkhanids, and the various beyliks of eastern and western Anatolia. <br><br>This book looks beyond political structures and towards a reconsideration of the interactions between the rural and the urban; an analysis of the relationships between architecture, culture and power; and an examination of the region's multiple geographies. In order to expand historiographical perspectives it draws on a wide variety of sources (architectural, artistic, documentary and literary), including texts composed in several languages (Arabic, Armenian, Byzantine Greek, Persian and Turkish). Original in its coverage of this period from the perspective of multiple polities, religions and languages, this volume is also the first to truly embrace the cultural complexity that was inherent in the reality of daily life in medieval Anatolia and surrounding regions.Architecture, MedievalTurkeyLandscapesTurkeyTo 1500TurkeyHistoryTo 1453History.fastArchitecture, MedievalLandscapes956.1014Blessing Patricia, authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut947608Blessing PatriciaGoshgarian RachelUkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910825776503321Architecture and landscape in medieval Anatolia, 1100-15004023248UNINA
