dc.description.abstract | Die Dissertation untersucht das sich wandelnde visuelle Vokabular der mamlukischen Kunst, insbesondere heraldische Symbole, die zentrale Elemente der Selbstrepräsentation der Mamluken waren. Diese Wappen prägten öffentliche Gebäude und Alltagsgegenstände, die für offizielle und zeremonielle Zwecke verwendet wurden. Die Mamluken erweiterten diese Symbole politischer Legitimität weit über die Städte hinaus bis in Dörfer und Grenzregionen, wodurch sie ihre staatliche Macht tiefer in die lokale Gesellschaft hinein projizierten.
Noch heute rufen Überreste mamlukischer Architektur in Städten wie Kairo, Jerusalem und Damaskus starke Reaktionen hervor, da diese Symbole zu den wenigen visuellen Zeugnissen gehören, die das historische Erbe der Mamluken in der kollektiven Erinnerung wachhalten. Der Katalog enthält eine Auswahl heraldischer Embleme aus verschiedenen Medien, darunter Bauwerke, Glas- und Metallobjekte, Textilien und Alltagsgegenstände. Ziel des Projekts ist es, diese Heraldik im sozialen Kontext zu analysieren und ihre Funktion als Ausdruck der Selbstinszenierung der mamlukischen Elite zu beleuchten. Dabei wurden auch Verbindungen zu älteren türkischen Traditionen entdeckt. Die Studie untersucht die Rolle dieser Symbole bei der Entstehung einer mamlukischen Bildkultur, die dahinterstehenden Institutionen und ihre sich wandelnden Bedeutungen im Laufe der Zeit. So trägt die Arbeit zur interdisziplinären Forschung in der islamischen Archäologie und Mamlukenforschung bei. | de |
dc.description.abstract | This project explores the changing visual vocabulary of Mamlūk public art and namely those elements that came to epitomize the Mamlūks’ modes of self-representation: heraldic devices. The combination of blazons and titular inscriptions (used in a heraldic fashion) in decorative registers was the most immediately recognizable element on public buildings – defining the cityscape – and on objects used for official and public display and ceremonial. The visual world thus created by Mamlūk-sponsored artists was saturated with such images. Surpassing the efforts of the Fatimid caliphs - who created the urban fabric of the city of Cairo, endowing it with a figurative tapestry of architectural inscriptions - the Mamlūk sultans and their amīrs took this imagery of political legitimacy beyond the cities to villages and the frontiers of their territories. These symbols in this way came to express the projection of state power deeper into local society.
The omnipresence of these symbols stamped itself deeply in the memory of the peoples conquered by the Mamlūks. Even today, the remains of emblazoned Mamlūk architecture in Jerusalem, Cairo, Damascus, Aleppo, Alexandria, and Ḥisbān provoke reactions from the passer-by; modern (popular) narratives about the Mamlūks and their rule often relate directly to these symbols of authority and are the few images that local people have of this period of their history. The catalogue contains some heraldic emblems in various media. It includes representative examples of published and available non-published heraldic symbols from different media, produced throughout the Mamlūk era. They appear on buildings like mosques, madrasas, mausoleums, doorways, as well as portable glass objects (mosque lamps, flasks, rose water sprinklers, bottles and vases), metal objects (bowls, basins, ink-pots (dawat), and swords, coins), textiles (embroideries, flags and banners), playing cards, and many other “everyday” items. The goal of this project is to produce a critical analysis of Mamlūk heraldic devices within their social context, examining them as deliberate forms of self-representation by the Mamlūk elite. This study explores their role in creating a popular Mamlūk visual culture, the institutions behind their production and dissemination, and their evolving meanings over time. By bridging Islamic Archaeology and Mamlūk studies with broader fields of Islamic and Central Asian Studies, this work aims to enrich our understanding of these interdisciplinary fields. | en |
