Description

Music Theory in Mamluk Cairo presents a comprehensive scholarly examination of the yat al-ma l b f 'ilm al-adw r wa-'l- ur b by Ibn Kurr, the only substantial theoretical text representing musicological discourse in Cairo during the first half of the fourteenth century CE. This SOAS Studies in Music volume offers invaluable insights into modal and rhythmic structures from the Mamluk period, which spanned from 1260 until the Ottoman conquest of Egypt in 1516. The text is significant not merely for its historical isolation but for the richness of information it provides regarding the theoretical foundations of music during this transformative era in Islamic musical history. Routledge's edition makes this essential primary source accessible to scholars, musicologists, and students of Islamic art and culture.
