The Making of Modern Muslim Selves through Architecture

This collection seeks to explore alternative definitions of bounded identities, facilitating new approaches to spatial and architectural forms. Taking as its starting point the emergence of a new sense of ‘boundary’ emerged from the post-19th century dissolution of large, heterogeneous empires into a mosaic of nation-states in the Islamic world. This new sense of boundaries has not only determined the ways in which we imagine and construct the idea of modern citizenship, but also redefines relationships between the nation, citizenship, cities and architecture. It brings critical perspectives to our understanding of the interrelation between the accumulated flows and the evolving concepts...

Sultans and Mosques

Before the Mughal style came to dominate the Islamic architecture of the Indian sub-continent, Bengal and its rulers had developed their own forms. The mosque architecture of the Independent Sultanate period (from the 14th to the 16th centuries) represents the most important element of the Islamic architecture of Bengal. This distinctive regional style drew its inspiration from the indigenous vernacular architecture of Bengal, itself heavily influenced by Hindu/Buddhist temple architecture. The early Muslim architecture of Bangladesh is an important but little studied part of the architectural heritage of the Islamic world and the Indian sub-continent. Perween Hasan's work is a most original contribution to this subject.

Wirtschaftsbauten in der antiken Stadt. Internationales Kolloquium 16.-17. November 2012 Karlsruhe

"Über die Wirtschaft der Antike sind wir gut informiert, und Wirtschaftsgebäude wie die Basilika wurden von Archäologen und Bauhistorikern vielfach untersucht. Jedoch fehlte bislang der interdisziplinäre Gedankenaustausch. Dieser Tagungsband schließt diese Lücke, er enthält Beiträge über Geldgeschäfte, Handelsformen und Handelsbeziehungen, er stellt Speichergebäude und Märkte vor. Einen besonderen Platz nimmt die römische Basilika ein, deren Entwicklung um 200 v. Chr. quasi schlagartig am Forum Romanum begann und die neue Vormachtstellung Roms, das nunmehr auch zum Zentrum der mittelmeerweiten Wirtschaft wurde, städtebaulich zum Ausdruck brachte. Zwei Beiträge befassen sich mit der weiteren Entwicklung des Begriffes Basilika und seinen Nachwirkungen im Kirchenbau und in der Architekturtheorie bis heute."--
