Culture And Memory In Medieval Islam : Essays In Honour Of Wilferd Madelung
By
Farhad Daftary
This text explores broad-ranging themes relating to memory, memorization, memorializing or commemorating in a variety of historical, legal, literary and architectural contexts. Scholars examine: lists and maps as memory aids; the transmission of knowledge and traditions from medieval to early modern times; the application of medieval notions of law and statecraft; and the commemoration of individuals, civilizations and dynasties in historical and literary works, on coinage and in monumental forms.
