Mercedes Volait examines the social life of typical objects moving from Cairo and Damascus to Paris, London, and beyond, uncovers the range of agencies and subjectivities involved in the trade of architectural salvage and historic handicraft, and traces impacts on private interiors, through creative reuse and Revival design, in Egypt, Europe and America. By devoting attention to both local and global engagements with Middle Eastern tangible heritage, the present volume invites to look anew at Orientalism in art and interior design, the canon of Islamic architecture and the translocation of historic works of art. Readership: All interested in tangible heritage in Cairo and Damascus, visual Orientalism (including photography), Islamic art collecting, and anyone concerned with commodification and intercultural contact zones. 517 $aAntique Dealing and Creative Reuse in Cairo and Damascus 1850?1890 606 $aAntiques business$zUnited States 607 $aMiddle East$xAntiquities 607 $aTurkey$xHistory$yTanzimat, 1839-1876 610 $aMiddle Eastern history 615 0$aAntiques business 676 $a381.457451096216 700 $aVolait$b Mercedes$0732718 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910490030303321 996 $aAntique dealing and creative reuse in Cairo and Damascus 1850-1890$92921636 997 $aUNINA
