Abstract

Rédigé au XIe siècle par le célèbre poète perse Ferdowsi, le Shâhnâmè, autrement dit Le Livre des Rois, raconte en 50.000 vers l'histoire légendaire de l'ancien royaume d'Iran, de ses origines mythiques à la conquête arabe en 651 apr. J.C. Cette vaste épopée littéraire donna lieu à de nombreuses éditions, la plus remarquable étant celle exécutée à Tabriz pour Shah Tahmasp, qui gouverna l'Iran de 1524 à 1576. D'une exécution remarquable, ses miniatures, alliant la finesse de la calligraphie et du dessin à l'art du coloris, sont considérées comme l'un des plus grands manuscrits enluminés au monde. Ses 258 folios illustrés, désormais dispersés entre des collections publiques et privées de l'Amérique du Nord, de l'Europe et du Moyen-Orient, sont ici pour la première fois rassemblés en un seul volume et reproduits avec un soin extrême (cinquième couleur or incluse). Ces planches sont précédées de textes de Sheila R.Canby qui offrent une introduction passionnante et aisément accessible à cet ensemble monumental. En fin d'ouvrage, des légendes commentées et une liste illustrée des principaux personnages permettent au lecteur de suivre au plus près les épisodes mouvementés de ce captivant récit en images.

Abstract

Renowned scholars present key new thinking on art, sciences, belief and history in the Seljuq periodDraws on new and updated use of historical sources Opens new paths in the research on magic beliefs, religion, astronomy, the concept of craftsmanship versus artistry, interaction between rulers and elites, ethno-religious and ethno-cultural diversity and emigration of peopleCase studies on the treatment of art objects (the oldest extant Shahnama, and a unique stucco panel) show innovations in conservation practices and set new strategies in dealing with restored objectsIncludes a comprehensive comparison of Seljuq and Ghaznavid titulature: a key tool for any kingship-related research in the fields of history, epigraphy, archaeology and art historyRising from nomadic origins as Turkish tribesmen, the powerful and culturally prolific Seljuqs and their successor states dominated vast lands extending from Central Asia to the eastern Mediterranean from the eleventh to the fourteenth century. Supported by colour images, charts, and maps, this volume examines how under Seljuq rule, migrations of people and the exchange and synthesis of diverse traditions – including Turkmen, Perso-Arabo-Islamic, Byzantine, Armenian, Crusader and other Christian cultures – accompanied architectural patronage, advances in science and technology and a great flowering of culture within the realm. It also explores how shifting religious beliefs, ideologies of authority and lifestyle in Seljuq times influenced cultural and artistic production, urban and rural architecture, monumental inscriptions and royal titulature, and practices of religion and magic. It also presents today’s challenges and new approaches to preserving the material heritage of this vastly accomplished and influential civilization.ContributorsViola AllegranziDeniz BeyazitPatricia BlessingSheila CanbyRoberta Giunta Margaret GravesCarole HillenbrandRobert HillenbrandRenata HolodLorenz KornStefan MasarovicLeslee Michelsen Andrew PeacockScott RedfordMartina RugiadiYasser TabbaaDeborah TorGeorge SalibaRustam ShukurovAlessandro Sidoti Mario Vitalone
