Paperback. Condizione: New. The Islamic world's artistic traditions experienced profound transformation in the 19th century as rapidly developing technologies and globalizing markets ushered in drastic changes in technique, style, and content. Despite the importance and ingenuity of these developments, the 19th century remains a gap in the history of Islamic art. To fill this opening in art historical scholarship, Making Modernity in the Islamic Mediterranean charts transformations in image-making, architecture, and craft production in the Islamic world from Fez to Istanbul. Contributors focus on the shifting methods of production, reproduction, circulation, and exchange artists faced as they worked in fields such as photography, weaving, design, metalwork, ceramics, and even transportation. Covering a range of media and a wide geographical spread, Making Modernity in the Islamic Mediterranean reveals how 19th-century artists in the Middle East and North Africa reckoned with new tools, materials, and tastes from local perspectives.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. First Edition. First printing of the true first edition, published in March 1944 - an anthology of poems taken from New Writing. With a Foreword by the editor John Lehmann. ***Near fine in scarlet cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to the spine. The gilt is still quite bright. The boards are clean, with just a couple of small marks on the back board near the spine. Edges of boards slightly rubbed. Head and tail of spine slightly creased. Page block edges nice and clean. Internally also near fine, with a neat ownership name to the top corner of the front free endpaper. Pages clean and unmarked. No foxing. No creases or tears. No reading lean. Spine tight. ***In a very good illustrated dustwrapper, which has not been price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of 8s. 6d. net, crossed through in pencil with 3/6 discounted price in pencil. The dustwrapper is largely complete, with just some loss at the top edge of the back panel. Edges of dustwrapper slightly creased and rubbed, with a couple of small closed tears. Tiny loss and rubbing to corners of dustwrapper. Spine lettering slightly faded. The back panel is marked, being all white, but the dustwrapper is otherwise bright. ***189 pages. 205mm x 136mm. ***'The first volume of "New Writing", Mr. Lehmann reminds us in his introduction, was published in the Spring of 1936. Only two out of the twenty contributions in that volume were poetry, but during the ten years which have elapsed since then poetry has played a far greater and more important role, both in the six-monthly volumes published as books and in the more frequent volumes of "The Penguin New Writing" which began in 1941. Nearly all the significant poets of these years appeared in the pages of "New Writing", some of them for the first time and many with poems which are considered among their most memorable. "New Writing" has always been specially interested in those poems which are a mirror of the stormy epoch in which they are written; in translations from modern European poets; and in poems which are not too long for the average weekly or monthly; all these characteristics will be found in the present anthology, which stands also for judgement as a record of one man's taste and the encouragement he endeavoured to give to the making of poetry--to the building of dykes,--during ten years of flood weather.' (Quote taken from the flaps of the dustwrapper) ***First printing of the true first edition, published to post-war economy standards, with an almost complete very fragile original dustwrapper. Uncommon thus. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.…
