Summary
Through close studies of ceramics, metalwares and other plastic arts from the ninth to the thirteenth centuries, 'Arts of Allusion' reveals the object as a crucial site where pre-modern craftsmen of the eastern Mediterranean and Persianate realms engaged in fertile dialogue with poetry, literature, painting, and - most strikingly - architecture.--, Provided by publisher
