Condizione: Good. First Edition. De tentoonstelling De kracht van zilver toont de collectie Smith-Hutschenruyter, een bijzondere verzameling van bijna 600 etnische zilveren sieraden afkomstig uit een gebied dat zich uitstrekt van Marokko tot China. Ieder sieraad vertelt zijn eigen krachtige verhaal, of dat nu gaat over verblinde…nde schoonheid, verfijnd vakmanschap, hoge economische waarde door gewicht en zilvergehalte, of over geloof in magische spirituele krachten die de mens kunnen bijstaan in het dagelijks leven. Daarbij roepen de armbanden, riemen, kettingen, hoofdsieraden en enkelbanden bewondering op vanwege hun schoonheid en het hoge vakmanschap waarmee ze zijn gemaakt.

Gebonden onder kartonomslag in kleur, 235 x 270mm., 192pp., 100 illustraties in kleuren. ISBN 9789061539650. Veertig jaar trok het verzamelaarsechtpaar Maudy Smith en Jaap Heij de wereld rond op zoek naar zilveren sieraden. Ze legden een verzameling aan van bijna zeshonderd etnische sieraden uit een gebied dat zich uitstrekt van… Marokko tot China. De collectie omvat hoofdsieraden, hals- en borstkettingen, armbanden, ringen, riemen, enkelbanden en teenringen, maar er zijn ook gebruiksvoorwerpen bij als chatelaines, oorlepeltjes en een reisset. Zilver leeft, vindt het echtpaar, precies dat maakt het edelmetaal zo bijzonder. Goud blijft altijd blinken, maar een zilveren sieraad dat ongebruikt blijft, wordt dof. Wordt het gedragen, dan gaat het glanzen en slijt het hier en daar af. Zo vertelt elk zilverwerk een eigen intiem levensverhaal. De kracht van zilver toont tweehonderd sieraden uit de collectie Smith- Hutschenruyter. Dit boek belicht niet alleen de pracht en de kunde, maar ook de mensen achter de sieraden. Ontwerpers vertellen over de stukken die ze maken; smeden, handelaren en de collectioneurs zelf nemen het woord. Vrouwen hebben het over hun band met hun sieraden. Voor een 27-jarige Berbervrouw is een leven zonder zilver ondenkbaar, want 'als je je nek niet hebt versierd, zie je eruit als een kameel'. Toch worden de zilverstukken niet alleen gedragen als versiering. Soms bieden ze magische bescherming, vaak zijn ze een uiting van status en economische onafhankelijkheid. 'Kijk naar wat wij dragen en je weet wie wij zijn.' Begeleidt de gelijknamige tentoonstelling in het Wereldmuseum, Rotterdam van 17 februari 2011 t/m 22 mei 2011. Nieuw boek. 1510 g.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Every year, in the last month of the Islamic calendar, millions of Muslims from around the world come together in Mecca to perform the Hajj, the pilgrimage that all capable Muslims should perform at least once in their lives. In 20…13, the National Museum of Ethnology in Leiden organised the exhibition Longing for Mecca. The Pilgrim's Journey. The chapters in this volume are the outcome of the two-day symposium on the Hajj, which was held at the museum in connection to the exhibition. The central theme that runs through the book is how Hajj practices, representations of Mecca and the exchange of Hajj-related objects have changed over time. The chapters in the first part of the book discuss religious, social, and political meanings of the Hajj. Here the relationship is addressed between the significance of pilgrimage to Mecca for the religious lives of individuals and groups and the wider contexts that they are embedded in. Together, these anthropological contributions provide insights into the effects on Hajj practices and meanings for present-day Muslims caused by current dimensions of globalisation processes. The second part of the book takes material expressions of the Hajj as its starting point. It explores what Hajj-related artefacts can tell us about the import of pilgrimage in the daily lives of Muslims in the past and present. The contributions in this part of the volume point out that Mecca has always been a cosmopolitan city and the nodal point of global interactions far exceeding religious activities. Together, the chapters in this book depict the Hajj ritual as a living tradition. Each with its own focus, the various contributions testify to the fact that, while the rites that make up the Hajj were formulated and recorded in normative texts in early Islam, details in the actual performance and interpretations of these rites are by no means static, but rather have evolved over time in tandem with changing socio-political circumstances.ContentsThe Hajj and the Anthropological Study of PilgrimageMarjo BuitelaarSacrifice, Purification and Gender in the Hajj: Personhood, Metonymy, and Ritual TransformationPnina WerbnerPilgrimage, Performativity, and British Muslims: Scripted and Unscripted Accounts of the Hajj and UmraSeán McLoughlinThe Hajj and Politics in Contemporary Turkey and IndonesiaRobert R.
