Description

This academic volume from Pindar Press serves as a follow-up to Anna Muthesius' ground-breaking research on silk as material culture. It builds upon her previous works, Studies in Byzantine and Islamic Silk Weaving and Studies in Silk in Byzantium, to provide a deeper look into historical textile production. The text examines how secular and ecclesiastical bodies selected silks, noting that these choices were driven by contemporary fashions and access to international trade routes. By studying the Great Silk Road, which connected the Near East to the Mediterranean, this work explores how these networks influenced the availability and patterns of silk. The surviving silks discussed in this publication provide direct evidence of the connection between Mediterranean and Near Eastern weaving traditions.
