Pocket Timeline of Islamic Civilization" is a 32-page, color illustrated, hard cover compendium of information compiled by Nicholas Badcott (Arab World Education Officer, the British Museum, London, England) that provides an informed and informative overview of the history and accomplishments of Islam including the Umayyads, Bbbasids, Fatimids, Seljugs, Zengids, Ayyubids, Mamluks, Ilkhands, Ottomans, Timurids, Safavids, and Mughals. Of particular interest in this collection are the many examples of shared artistic motifs and techniques between the Byzantine Christians, the Sasanians, and the Umayyads, as well as in the art produced by western Christians and in later Islamic art-producing centers. |
